The Ministry of Paradise does not subscribe to the use of the word “rapture” whether ‘pre’, ‘mid’; or ‘post’ tribulation. We subscribe to the words written in the word of God: “SALVATION” or “REDEMPTION”.

The REDEMPTION of the Kingdom of God takes place in TWO PHASES as descried by the Apostle Paul when he said: “Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming” (1 Corinthians 15:23).

Who are the FIRSTFRUITS?

The FIRSTFRUITS to be redeemed from this earth to Heaven are the Saints or Servants of God who will be killed or “…slained for the word of God…” (Revelation 6:9-11), and are priests of God and of Christ (Revelation 20:6). In the Book of Revelation John wrote:

“These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the [FIRSTFRUITS UNTO GOD AND TO THE LAMB]. And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are [WITHOUT FAULT BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD]” (Revelation 14:4).

The REMAINING FRUITS are at the COMING of JESUS on the LAST DAY when those who are Christs: risen from the dead and alive will be GATHERED UNTO HIM IN JERUSALEM and then REDEEMED TO HEAVEN (Matthew 25:31–34) (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17).

Jesus very clearly says: “[IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory” (Matthew 24:29-30).

“[AND HE SHALL SEND HIS ANGELS] with a great sound of a trumpet, and [THEY SHALL GATHER TOGETHER HIS ELECT FROM THE FOUR WINDS, FROM ONE END OF HEAVEN TO THE OTHER]” (Matthew 24:31). 

“[THEN COMETH THE END], when he shall have [DELIVERED UP] the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power” (1 Corinthians 15:24).

“[JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

“To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

  In our lifetime where we will have days in the wilderness of struggles, setbacks and stresses we must keep our heads up knowing that GOD has given us a SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST(John 3:16-18). Our Lord JESUS CHRIST says: “[THE WORLD CANNOT HATE YOU; BUT ME IT HATETH], because I [TESTIFY OF IT, THAT THE WORKS THEREOF ARE EVIL]” (John 7:7). “[IF THE WORLD HATE YOU, YE KNOW THAT IT HATED ME BEFORE IT HATED YOU]” (John 15:18). “He that [HATETH ME HATETH MY FATHER ALSO]” (John 15:23). “He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it” (John 8:44). “He that loveth his life shall lose it; and [HE THAT HATETH HIS LIFE IN THIS WORLD SHALL KEEP IT UNTO LIFE ETERNAL]. If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be” (Matthew 12:24-26). “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. [IN TH...

To obtain LIGHT to be REDEEMED to HEAVEN all GOD is asking of humans is to REPENT OF SINS and BELIEVE in HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON: “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). “[NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD AT ANY TIME; THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). “[FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR] between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6). “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says: “LET not your heart be troubled: [YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME]” (John 14:1). “[ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH]” (Matthew 28:18). “The Father lo...

“Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption” (1 Corinthians 15:50). “Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you” (Romans 8:9-11). The Apostle Paul further described the events for those who are “…Christ’s at his coming…” (1 Corinthians 15:23) when the seventh angel sounds on the LAST DAY (Revelation 11:15), said: “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” (1 Corinthians 15:52–53). ...
