The Rapture — is it true or a false doctrine?

These are biblical times.

There are two ways in which we will address this question regarding "the rapture."

We can require you to reason with God using your God-Given ability: Who is the Holy God and What is His Nature?

Or we could simply point out the simple fact: the only possible result of believing in "the rapture" is Complete and Utter Satanic Victory.

Where shall we start?

We could simply read, and BELIEVE, a few chapters out of Brother Paul's letter to the Romans.

Or, we might JUMP TO to the more obvious but more detailed answer to the question about the truth of » "is the modern day revelation of The Rapture true or not."

We could even JUMP TO to the shorter and easier answer to this question » "What is the Nature of God? What does God do and what does He never do?"

But first the question of today is: What can we, the Christian Church in the United States of America, do to save our nation?

The answer is: We must do what the Lord has always commanded that His Children must do.

We must Confess and Repent our sins — disobedience and negligence of the responsibility which the Lord our God gave to us.

We must Confess and Repent in the same manner which we committed the sins — in the marketplace of the Public Square.

We must with all humility come before the throne of El Elohim (the Lord most High) and ask Jesus to Heal our Land.

If the rapture only serves evil is it true or not?

Okay then, first we will take the long yet simple route, proving the inevitable result of "the rapture" is to give the Antichrist exactly what he wants.

Here we go ...

The Pre-Tribulation Rapture is: the belief that "christians" will not have to suffer through the Tribulations, that the church will instead be "carried away" in order to avoid all of the Great Tribulations at the end of this time.

That means: this greatly-fallen-away modern day church will never be confronted with making the hard decisions which the rest of the entire world will be required to make: whether or not to bow down to the Antichrist and whether to accept the Mark of the Beast of the Number of his name

... even though this beautiful and worldly, wonderful and kind, wise and loving and caring, Peacemaker-Statesman just happens to also be the Son of Perdition.

The only problem is: What will happen to those who really do believe that God will not make them go through the Tribulations, the very same Tribulations that Jesus Himself had to suffer, the very same Tribulations Jesus' Church has always had to suffer ... and which Tribulations the entire world must also endure?

What do you think they will do?

What will those young, babes in Christ do when the Antichrist comes?

They will do exactly what any sane person would do?

They will WORSHIP the devil and will ACCEPT his mark and name.

Why would they do that?

They will be seduced by the Antichrist because they have been PROMISED by YOU and "all of the church" that they will NEVER have to make the hard decision which everybody else has had to make since the beginning of time.

The Great Deceiver will come to them and seduce them easily:

because the CHURCH has told them to believe in "The Rapture,"

Therefore Satan will only need to "reason with them calmly and rationally" that ...

"Because you have not been raptured;

and you know that the Antichrist comes after the rapture;

therefore this World Leader cannot be the Antichrist,

and this little 'health passport" is not the Mark of the Beast!"

Can you not see where the danger lies?

» Where did this Highly-Popular, Automatically-Accepted, Un-examined and Brand New Doctrine

» Where did this "NEW Revelation for the Last Times Church"

... came from?

If it can only result in evil, then from whom would you suppose it cometh?

Back to the TOP of this page ...

Come, let us reason with God; is "the rapture" true or not Pastor Brent?

B. Oliver: Regarding the argument that The Lord spared Noah and Lot from Judgment: therefore to spare His people from suffering trbulations is "His nature."

That is two people.

Let us count how many millions of the righteous were not "raptured" — all the righteous who were not taken away in order to be spared from having to suffer the tribulations born of the Wrath of God against His people?

Samuel was not spared. Neither were others of the judges.

Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego were not spared. Neither were Jeremiah or any of the thousands of others of His people who were righteous.

Since the time of the conquest of Jerusalem by Babylon there were many, many righteous who were required by God to suffer the tribulations.

The entire nation of Israel suffered over 2,500 years for their failure to worship God and to keep His commandments.

When Meßiah came the entire nation of Israel was cursed with "eyes that cannot see; ears that cannot hear and hearts that cannot believe; lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and believe in their hearts and be healed."

About Noah ...

Noah was the last person on earth who was "perfect in his generations" — his wife and sons and daughters-in-law were all carrying the bloodline of the Nephilim.

That is the only reason why Noah was "taken away" » in order to REPLENISH the world! He was not spared tribulations because of the heart of God, rather his tribulations were great indeed.

About Lot ...

Lot was "saved away" ONLY because of Abraham!

God honored the father of the faithful because God is faithful: The Father keeps His promises.

That was one time, Brent.

FACT: It was never and will not be in the heart of God to "spare" His people

— because it is NOT a CURSE to follow Jesus!

To be asked of Jesus to pick up HIS cross and to follow HIM is the greatest of blessings!

This is the nature of God ... it has ever been who God is or what He does.

Perhaps that is where the sticky little problem lies? In the Laodicean, modern-day church today your congregants only want you to "tickle their fancies?"

That is why you must continue to preach the pure, plain, unadorned Gospel of Truth

... only leave out the last two minutes of your personal opinion at the end of the sermon

... when you teach JESUS' Flock ...

"Duh, never mind what I just told you for the last hour.

You will not have to worry about bowing down to and worshipping the Antichrist.

Neither will you ever have to make a decision whether or not the accept the mark of the Beast

... because ALL of the Church will already have been Raptured before the Antichrist comes.

Therefore: if any government ever requires you to accept anything in your forehead or your hand

... Then ACCEPT THE MARK

... since the rapture hasn't happened yet

= it can't be the Antichrist!"

That's it? That's the best you have?

Only two example of people being "raptured" against the millions of those who were not raptured?

I cannot argue the point, Brent, it is not how the Gift of the Word of Knowledge comes: one must submit to His voice and count everyting that we already think-that-we-know as rubbisn (which is what all of "our" treasures in this world truly are, including our schooling and degrees and theology ... everything).

FACT: Hundreds of millions of Jews have been under severe tribulations for thousands of years.

The entire nation of Jacob was prevented ... by God Himself ... from accepting and believing on Jesus are the ones who Jesus caused to bear OUR BURDENS for us « That is the true nature of God.

All the church has been under tribulations — from the suffering that all of the primitive (early) church who were persecuted by the Spirit of Antichrist ... to being burned alive, beheaded and crucified.

Brent, the disciples of Jesus having to suffer through great tribulations was not a "punishment" against the apostles and prophets, teachers and evangelists and Head-Waiters (Stephen)

... for they correctly believed and accepted And Rejoiced that they were ordered by Jesus to pick up their crosses and to follow Him.

Jesus is not unjust. He is not a respecter of persons: as all those who went before us, and as do many around this world even to this day: we too will be allowed the blessing of following His footsteps: "Thou Peter, pick up thy cross and follow me."

When did Jesus change His mind?

When did God change His nature?

If you think that God is a respecter of persons, and that the modern-day Laodicean Church is much more worthy of being "raptured" out of tribulatoins than were any other Christians in the entire history of the Church, then you are ... you simply do not know the heart of God, who He is and what He does.

I am sincerely sorry that I cannot explain, but it is something which cannot simply be told and then held by the hearer as "head knowlege," one must *know* in the biblical denotative definition: to have personally experienced.

I cannot imagine any person thinking that the some One who said "there is no God else beside me; a just God and a SAVIOUR ... there is none BESIDE ME." [Isaiah 45:21]

... would do such an unjust thing: to torture some of His people and to let other, far less-deserving and much more-rebellious and idolotrous children to get off scot-free ... to so believe is the pride of the flesh against which we were warned.

Boast not yourself against Israel, for He that is able of these stones to raise up children to Abrham was also able to cut off their vine and to graft us into their place:

then how much more will He cut off the un-natural vine and graft back the natural?

Brent, if God had not intentionally and willfully hardened their hearts and made them deaf, dumb and blind to the Jesus and His gospel ... then Israel would have accepted Jesus as their Messiah

= we would STILL be DOGS to this day!

... for His promise was only to the children of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.

As in the scriptures of Jeremiah through Zedekiah: yes the children of God were held accountable for each one's sins:

» but the persecutions and tribulations which they bore For Our Sakes

» were what allowed us, the Gentiles, to be grafted into the Branch

» and though they bore the punisment

... still their blood will be accounted onto OUR HANDS

if we boast ourselves againt Jacob.

It is a warning. Please be careful of the pride of the flesh, for He is not a respecter of persons.

Let us Always Examine the Fruit ... to discern the spirits.

This fairy-tale of "the rapture" has no effect on salvation ... for everybody EXCEPT for those who are alive when the Antichrist comes into power and require all worship him and take his mark.

Those who are alive when tribulations begin but DO NOT believe in "the rapture" = they will be prepared: they will know the times and will rather Greatly REJOICE in this blessing; they will not accept the mark of the beast.

But those 'young' or 'immature' Christians in that day (and you surely have seen how quickly the Church has fallen away just in the last few years) ... all of those "babes in Christ" who DO BELIEVE in 'the rapture' ... will be perfectly set up to be deceived by the Spirit of Antichrist.

The seducer will compassionately, wisely and lovingly point out to them that the rapture has not yet come = therefore this great new leader CANNOT be the the Antichrist and this little "health passport" is NOT the "mark of the beast."

All because of this doctine-of-men those young, immature Christians will quickly and eagerly line up to get their tickets straight to hell.

The only possible results of this "new revelation" are:

Either NO EFFECT.

Or Go To Hell.

Where is the good fruit?

Can a good tree bring forth evil fruit?

Or can an evil tree bring forth good fruit?

If one cannot discern the heart of God, then follow His instructions: we will know the antichristian spirits and false prophets by their fruit.

I see no good fruit here ... but thousands of modern-day "prophets" have made millions of dollars selling this fairy tale to the foolish who are without discernment.

Please consider the results, te fruits .. and please do not go into the old song and dance "well, some people heard about or read about the rapture, and as a result they became Christians."

The Father is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham ... that does not mean that the scribes and Pharisees, Sanhedrin and Sadducees were "serving god" when they carried out the crucifixion of our Lord.

God can take any awful thing and make good come of it ... that is the true nature of the Holy One of Israel.

... but that does not mean that evil is good, or that good is evil: it only means that God is Sovereign.

Ruby Brookshier was my second "father" in the gospel ... she took less than one single minute to disavow myself of the years of my "agreeing" with the false prophecy of the rapture and hundreds of hours of studying (perhaps a better word than "believing" or "agreeing with" is the scriptural warning: "having their fancies tickled with').

All that was required is that she simply *showed me* the Heart of God ... and by the gift of God I was able to see the Light.

If you wish, you too may see with His Eyes, with the Holy Ghost's spiritual sight ... if you have the eyes to see the Kingdom of God that is the best place to start: ask Him and wait upon the Lord.

Fact: Stephen was INSIDE the Kingdom of God before the Sanhedrin ... it is why they murdered him. They were attempting to duplicate in Stephen the crucifixion of Jesus » because they could *SEE with their EYES* that Stephen was in the Kingdom of God.

But Stephen did not feel one single stone cast at him: he was already in Jesus Christ and was glowing with the glory of God before them, because he was in that place where there is neither sun nor moon nor stars » for the Lamb of God is the light thereof.

That is why Stephen was "shining" — he was standing inside the Light of the World, Jesus.

Lord Jesus, let him see your creation as it truly is and how heaven has always been, and to recognize the audible voice of the Good Shepherd when You call him. Amen.

This is the other, and greatly-preferred, way in which we could address the question "Is the rapture true or not?"

Above is the simple, rational way to answer this question, Click Here to go to the answer: If "the rapture" can only result in evil results then is it true or not?

There are two ways in which to address the question: Is the Pre-Tribulation Rapture true or not?

One way depends upon whether the person reading this article, in the scriptural sense, both Knows God and is also Known By Jesus?

The other way is to appeal to the reader's God-Given ability to reason with God as did Abraham.

If you are known by Jesus Christ: "I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing." [John 15:5 KJV]

But if you prefer to Reason with God: Then we will talk about the Nature of God — Who God is, what God does what God does NOT DO.

God is not a respecter or persons: the standards by which He judges are the same for every person whether rich or poor, whether tall or short or young or old ... it does not matter who people are.

God does not require of ANY person what He also does not require of EVERY person: God has grafted us, the Gentiles, into the natural branch which was His Nation Israel.

Fact 1: When JESUS the Messiah came to Israel, they received Him not because God had MADE THEM to not be able to see or believe Jesus, nor to be able to believe in Jesus.

.Fact 2: God MADE it IMPOSSIBLE for Israel to believe in Jesus ... for one specific reason: That when Israel refused Jesus. and refused the Promise of the Father = then God GRAFTED US into their place in the Family of the Children of God.

Jesus Christ Himself ... in His own words repeating the Prophet ... TOLD US THIS is true!

As it is written: "Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them." [John 12:39-40 KJV]

Brother Paul also warned us against this ... tendency by the Gentile Church ... to remain IGNORANT of the One True Creator, the only Everlasting Father and Eternal Saviour, "His name is The Holy ONE of Israel."

We do not know Who God is, the Nature of God, what God does and does not do.

Fact 3: God judged His Nation Israel of their Sins: disobedience, rebellion and idolatry.

They had to suffer the tribulations of those sins for over 2,500 years!

Today the entire modern-day church is locked into the very same sins as was Israel

But the Gentile Church Today has committed the exact same sins as did Israel;

But our sins are much MUCH grievous than were Israel's: disobedience, rebellion and idolatry.

Any person who really believes that God will spare the modern-days church of Christian Gentiles from "the tribulations"

Does not know God: God is Not Like That!

God does not hold one people to a very high standard and another to a very low standard.

Do you believe that God holds Israel to perfectly keeping all of the LAW, His Commandments and all of the Prophets and Judges which are impossible for ANY MAN to meet

... while they are also being prevented BY GOD from meeting that standard.

While you also believe that God would completely

SPARE you of the very same Tribulations?

And where exactly did this "new revelation" come from?

For 1850 years no Christian of the face of the earth believed in such a thing as the "two times Jesus returns" as the rapture teaches.

Examine the Fruits.

Essentially there are only two different groups of Christians today:

1. those who do believe in the "Pre-Tribulation Rapture"

2. and those who DO NOT believe that "Jesus is returning TWICE."

There is only one specific point in time when belief in this "Pretribulation Rapture" has any effect:

1. those Christians who ARE ALIVE when the Antichrist and the Mark of the Beast comes,

2. and those Christians are already "asleep in Christ" when the rapture fails to occur.

That leaves us with four (4) possible combinations of the above: (two groups) X (two ages) = (2 x 2) = (4)

1. Those who (DO NOT believe in the rapture) + (are already dead) when tribulations come.

2. Those who (DO BELIEVE in the rapture) + (are already dead) when tribulations come.

3. Those who (DO NOT believe in the rapture) + (are ALIVE when the tribulations come)

4. Those who (DO BELIEVE in the rapture) + (are ARE ALIVE when the Antichrist & Mark of the Beast come)

Below is the simple chart with those four groups above.

Notice that of the four groups there is only one group of Christians who could possibly ... come to an evil result ... when either the Pretribulation does or does not really happen ...

The only two possible Groups	+ The two possible realities.	= What are the results?
Those who DO BELIEVE in the rapture	+ There IS a rapture =	No Effect! = They are saved. Believing or not on this "new revelation" has no effect on their salvation.
Those who DO NOT believe in it	+ There is NO RAPTURE =
Those who DO NOT believe in it	+ There IS a rapture =
Those who DO BELIEVE in the rapture.	+ but there is NO RAPTURE =	They ALL go to HELL Forever!

It does not hold water, Think about it!

The only possible result of this "new revelation" is: Christians being deceived by the Antichrist and therefore accepting the Mark of the Beast.

If Christians actually do believe what this doctrine states:

... that they WILL NOT HAVE to be concerned about making hard decisions in the end-times

.... because they will already have been Raptured when people will be force to worship the Antichrist and accept the Mark of the Beast.

Then, when there is no Pre-Tribulation Rapture and the "true believers in the rapture" are faced with the decision: worship God or worship and obey Satan.

What will those young or weak Christians in those days believe?

Of course the Father of Lies, who is the craftiest and smartest LIAR among all of Creation, will successfully DECEIVE those Christians.

Why would they decide to worship the Antichrist and to accept the Mark of the Beast?

Simple: because the modern-day "prophets who are not prophets" have TOLD THEM that they will NEVER have to obey the First Commandment.

+ Because they will have Already have been Raptured when the Antichrist comes;

+ And because the Rapture has not happened yet;

= then this must not be the Antichrist and this cannot be the Mark of the Beast.

... and they will be "good christians" by submitting to the worldly authorities which have made it the law.

Do you now see what this doctrine will lead to?

And just one more note regarding the Word of God ...

Apostle Paul clearly stated that there will be Christians alive DURING the tribulations;

that "We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed ... In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump."

Below: Biblical PROOF that there will be Christians ALIVE at the END of the tribulations, when Jesus returns "in the clouds" with armies in the final judgment ...

"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory." {1 Corinthians 15:51-54 KJV]

That is Paul's promise that false doctrine of the pre-triublation rapture is ... "not entirely true."

Below: Then READ + BELIEVE the angel's promise that Jesus will return in the clouds to the whole world at the same time:

"And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." [Acts 1:10-11 KJV]

Two little simple promises straight from the Word of God prove that:

Jesus will return In the Clouds,

as the sun rises s from the east to the west,

visible to the WHOLE WORLD,

at the final judgment of the whole world,

... and when Jesus really does return just as we are TOLD that He will return;

— there is no room for doubt or deception by the Antichrist: to deceive or to tempt the Christians who are still alive during tribulations when the Antichrist Has Already Come and the mark of the beast is given and long after the Ruling Antichrist commits the Abomination of Desolation at the Temple in Jerusalam

= you will see all of those things!

... it is only THEN that the Marriage of the Lamb happens,

— not half-way through the tribulations ... but the gathering of the Bride of Christ occurs at the END of the very END of the tribulations;

» as it is written at the end of the book of Revelation (in Chapter 19):

— AFTER Jesus' real return in Judgment of the whole world;

— AFTER the Final Judgment of the Great Harlot;

— AFTER that great city BABYLON is cast down forever ...

"And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready." [Revelation 19:7-8 KJV]
