This passage of Scripture (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17) is NOT the so called “rapture”!
This passage of Scripture is the REDEMPTION of the Kingdom of God on the Last Day at the end of the Day of Judgment before the END OF THE WORLD (Matthew 25:31-34) (Revelation 20:11-15).
“[FOR THE LORD HIMSELF SHALL DESCEND FROM
HEAVEN] with a shout, with the [VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL, AND WITH THE TRUMP OF
GOD]: and [THE DEAD IN CHRIST SHALL RISE FIRST], [THEN WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND
REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS], to meet the Lord
in the air: [AND SO SHALL WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD]” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17).
Absolutely no one is going to ESCAPE the DAY
OF JUDGMENT except the 144,000 saints of priests of God and of the lamb who are
killed, and are the FIRSTFRUITS to be REDEEMED to heaven (Revelation 7:2-4;
20:4-6).
“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).
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die,
but [AFTER THIS THE JUDGMENT]” (Hebrews 9:27).
“[FOR WE MUST ALL APPEAR] before the judgment
seat of Christ; that [EVERY ONE MAY RECEIVE THE THINGS DONE IN HIS BODY],
according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad” (2 Corinthians
5:10).
“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).
“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ
Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
you all. Amen” (Philippians 4:23).
