Is the Rapture True?

What is a Rapture?

Rapture: 1. (Late 16th century definition) seizing and carrying off.

By the English definition, a rapture is a seizing of persons and carrying them off.

Is the Rapture True?

According to the late 16th century definition of "rapture," yes, in the end of this world, there will be a seizing of a remnant believers and they will be carried off into the air to ever be with Christ at his second coming.

1Th 4:15-17

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of Alahayim: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 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.

There will be believers who have died before the coming of Christ and those who are alive at His coming. The trump will sound at Christ's coming and descent from heaven. For those who are alive and remain at his coming, the angels will seize them and carry them off unto Christ in the air:

Mat 24:30-31, 40-41

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. 31 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. 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

The scriptures help understand there will be a carrying off or rapturing of the remnant of believers in Christ who are alive at his second coming when he can be seen coming in the clouds of heaven at the end of this world.

When is the Rapture?

The rapture of the remnant of the believers in Christ will not be until the end of the world in the consummation of the times at his second coming after "the great tribulation" wherein everyone alive experiences the tribulations to come upon the world wherein a portion of believers are martyred at the hands of the False Prophet in that great tribulation to come. This means the rapture of the remnant of believers in Christ that are alive will not happen until after the great tribulation to come upon the world and the believers who will be reckoned as good and righteous martyrs die at the hands of the False Prophet. This is why there will only be a remnant of believers who will be alive at the coming of Christ to be raptured [I Thes 4:17] because some believers will die in Christ at the hands of the False Prophet before Christ returns in the clouds and those who died will be among those that are raised from the dead at his second coming. [I Thes 4:16]

Let's look at the scriptures to understand when the rapturing of the remnant of believers to be with Christ in the air shall be. First, there is growing tribulation upon the world in the consummation of the times and everyone alive will experience the tribulations to come:

II Baruch chapter 25-29

25:2 This therefore shall be the sign. 3 When a stupor shall seize the inhabitants of the earth, and they shall fall into many tribulations, and again when they shall fall into great torments. And it will come to pass when they
say in their thoughts by reason of their much tribulation: "The Mighty ’One doth no longer remember the earth"-yes, it will come to pass when they abandon hope, that the time will then awake 26:1 And I answered and said: ’Will that tribulation which is to be continue a long time, and will that necessity embrace many years?’ 27: 1 And He answered and said unto me: ’Into twelve parts is that time divided, and each one of them is reserved for that which is appointed for it. 2 In the first part there shall be the beginning of commotions. 3 And in the second part there shall be slayings of the great ones. 4 And in the third part the fall of many by death. 5 And in the fourth part the sending of the sword. 6 And in the fifth part famine and the withholding of rain. 7 And in the sixth part earthquakes and terrors. 8 And in the seventh part [Wanting.] 9 And in the eighth part a multitude of specters and attacks of the Shedim. 10 And in the ninth part the fall of fire. 11 And in the tenth part rapine and much oppression. 12 And in the eleventh part wickedness and unchastity. 13 And in the twelfth part confusion from the mingling together of all those things aforesaid. 14 For these parts of that time are reserved, and shall be mingled one with another and minister one to another. 15 For some shall leave out some of their own, and receive in its stead from others, and some complete their own and that of others, so that those may not understand who are upon the earth in those days that this is the consummation of the times. 28:1 Nevertheless, whoever understands shall then be wise.

It is necessary for these things to come to pass as during these tribulations, many believers will be purified and made white laboring in good works to show their faith in their trials understanding this is the consummation of the times while the wicked will continue living in the pleasure of sin not understanding the times:

Dan 12:10

Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

II Baruch 28:6

But if O Ahayah, those things shall assuredly come to pass which you have foretold to me, so do yo show this also unto me if indeed I have found grace in your sight. 7 Is it in one place or in one of the parts of the earth that those things are come to pass, or will the whole earth experience them?" 29:1 And He answered and said unto me: "Whatever will then befall will befall the whole earth; therefore all who live will experience them.

This confirms the tribulations of the consummation of the times is something everyone alive must experience and the tribulations are for the purification of the wise who will understand the times we are in and put the work in to be purified as gold tried in the fire by performing acceptable faithfulness in keeping the commandments.[ Sir 15:14--16]

Sir 2:5-6
For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity. 6 Believe in him, and he will help thee; order thy way aright, and trust in him.

Ecclesiasticus 15:14-15

He himself made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his counsel; 15 If thou wilt, to keep the commandments, and to perform acceptable faithfulness.

2 Esdras 16:67

Behold, Alahayim himself is the judge, fear him: leave off from your sins, and forget your iniquities, to meddle no more with them for ever: so shall Alahayim lead you forth, and deliver you from all trouble.

Leaving off from our sins not to continue doing them by performing the commandments in acceptable faithfulness is necessary to be lead by Alahayim and delivers from all the trouble to come as there will be an insurrection against believers in the tribulation:

2 Esdras 16:68-73
For, behold, the burning wrath of a great multitude is kindled over you, and they shall take away certain of you, and feed you, being idle, with things offered unto idols. 69 And they that consent unto them shall be had in derision and in reproach, and trodden under foot. 70 For there shall be in every place, and in the next cities, a great insurrection upon those that fear the Lord. 71 They shall be like mad men, sparing none, but still spoiling and destroying those that fear the Lord. 72 For they shall waste and take away their goods, and cast them out of their houses. 73 Then shall they be known, who are my chosen; and they shall be tried as the gold in the fire.

This is the trial that must come for purification to make believers white understanding this is the consummation of the times and in the trials will the Lord's chosen be known by their good works. They will be delivered by their faith in Alahayim and keeping His commandments

2 Esdras 16:74-76
Hear, O ye my beloved, saith the Lord: behold, the days of trouble are at hand, but I will deliver you from the same. 75 Be ye not afraid neither doubt; for Alahayim is your guide, 76 And the guide of them who keep my commandments and precepts, saith the Lord Alahayim: let not your sins weigh you down, and let not your iniquities lift up themselves.

By not letting the past sins weigh them down in sorrow, guilt, or unbelief, nor allowing the iniquities they’ve put the effort in to overcome lift themselves back up to go back to the pleasure in them, the believers will keep the commandments and be guided and delivered by Alahayim. On the other hand, those who can’t let go of their pleasures to put the work in to overcome them, will not be purified in the trials and will have to give answer before the Lord in the day of visitation as to why they didn’t repent and bring forth fruits of repentance:

2 Esdras 16:77-78
Woe be unto them that are bound with their sins, and covered with their iniquities like as a field is covered over with bushes, and the path thereof covered with thorns, that no man may travel through! 78 It is left undressed, and is cast into the fire to be consumed therewith.
Sir 2:12-14
Woe be to fearful hearts, and faint hands, and the sinner that goeth two ways! 13 Woe unto him that is fainthearted! for he believeth not; therefore shall he not be defended. 14 Woe unto you that have lost patience! and what will ye do when the Lord shall visit you?

Lord willing, we all who read this make the choice to walk in the path of them that fear the Lord and desire to live unto Alahayim by keeping his commandments:

Sir 2:15-18
They that fear the Lord will not disobey his Word; and they that love him will keep his ways. 16 They that fear the Lord will seek that which is well pleasing unto him; and they that love him shall be filled with the law. 17 They that fear the Lord will prepare their hearts, and humble their souls in his sight, 18 Saying, We will fall into the hands of the Lord, and not into the hands of men: for as his majesty is, so is his mercy.

Alahayim willing this understanding helps for encouragement to believe in Alahayim and do the work to overcome our sins and keep Alahayim's commandments. Let's continue in understanding when the Rapture shall be for the remnant of the believers. Towards the end of the consummation, the tribulations will get worse after the signs spoken of by Daniel come to pass to signify the last 1335 days of the consummation.

Daniel 12:11-12

And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. 12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

By scripture here, during the consummation of the times, the two signs told to Daniel will indicate when there are only 1335 days left and those remnant of believers who are blessed to make it to the 1335th day, will be the ones who remained alive in the world to partake in the rapture when Christ returns in the clouds at his second coming.

2 Esdras 9:7-8

And every one that shall be saved, and shall be able to escape by his works, and by faith, whereby ye have believed, 8 Shall be preserved from the said perils, and shall see my salvation in my land, and within my borders: for I have sanctified them for me from the beginning.

2 Esdras 7:27-28

And whosoever is delivered from the foresaid evils shall see my wonders. 28 For my son Yache shall be revealed with those that be with him, and they that remain shall rejoice within four hundred years.

2 Esdras 6:25

Whosoever remaineth from all these that I have told thee shall escape, and see my salvation, and the end of your world

These are the reasons Daniel was told "blessed is he that waiteth and cometh to the 1335 days" because they will see Christ coming in the clouds after the tribulations in the end of our world:

Luke 21:25-28

And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Through scripture, everyone must go through the tribulations to be tried in consummation of the times, some unto purification while some will not endure the trial in well doing. In the last 1335 days, the Devil will have his time to rule for the initial 1331 days. Within his 1331 days, the Beast will have authority for the first 1274 days and then the False Prophet will be revealed after the authority of the Beast. Now before the 1335th day wherein the remnant of believers will be blessed to make it to, there will be a portion of believers who will die at the hands of the False Prophet at some point after the 1274th day in these end times. This is why it will be a remnant of believers that make it alive to the 1335th day because some will be good and righteous martyrs before that day comes. Lets look at what shall come to pass in the last 1335 days before the rapture of the remnant of believers who are blessed to make it to the 1335th day:

Revelation 12:9-12

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our Alahayim, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our Alahayim day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Ascension of Isaiah 4:12

12 And he will rule for three years and seven months and twenty-seven days.

His short time is 1331 days (3-yr 7-mo 27-d) that he has to rule in his great wrath.

Revelation 12:13

And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

During his 1331 days, he will persecute the believers in Christ who keep the commandments and have His testimony:

Revelation 12:17

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of Alahayim, and have the testimony of Yache Christ.

For the initial 1274 days (42 mo) of the 1331 days of his rulership, the Devil will give power and authority unto the Beast that ascends out of the pit in the sea with the intent of persecuting the saints in the Devil's war against the remnant of the Woman’s seed:

Revelation 13:1-2, 5-8

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 8 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

The Devil is who is truly ruling like Isaiah spake of, though he will not reveal himself at this time, by evidence of the fact that he is who gave power, seat and authority to the Beast for the 1274 days (42 mo):

Revelation 13:6-8

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against Alahayim, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

There we confirm the Beast's intent is to make war and overcome the saints as the Devil desires.

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

During the Beast's 1274 days of authority within the Devil’s 1331 days of rulership, the Two Witnesses will be given power to prophecy for the initial 1260 days to preach the gospel of the Kingdom:

Revelation 11:3

And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Matthew 24:14

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

After the Witnesses have preached for the 1260 days, then will the end come.

*The Events to come after the 1260 days are what must come to pass to bring about the end of the World*

After the Two Witnesses have finished their testimony, the Beast, who will still have 14 more days of authority left to complete his 1274 days, will kill the Two Witnesses in the great city, "Mystery, Babylon the Great," which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt.

Revelation 11:7

And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. 8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from Alahayim entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

After prophesying for the 1260 days, the Two Witnesses will be killed and raised from the dead in Babylon so they will be alive with the rest of the saints fleeing persecution here in the end of the world. After the Beast kills them and they are revived, the Devil will reveal himself in the form of the False Prophet at some point after the 1274th day of the Beast’s power and authority.

Ascension of Isaiah Chapter 4

1 Now, therefore, Hezekiah and Josab my son, these are the days of the completion of the world. 2 And after it has been brought to completion, Beliar will descend, the great angel, the king of this world, which he hath ruled ever since it existed. He will descend from his firmament in the form of a man, a king of iniquity, a murderer of his mother—this is the king of this world—

This descending of the Devil in the form of a man is the False Prophet. He is the other beast with the horns of a lamb but speaking as a dragon that was shown in Revelations:

Revelation 13:11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

He speaks as a dragon but had horns like a lamb because he will act and speak like the Beloved but its truly the Devil speaking through him.

Ascension of Isaiah 4:6-10

6 And he will do everything he wishes in the world; he will act and speak like the Beloved, and will say, “I am Lord, and before me there was no one." 7 And all men in the world will believe in him. 8 And they will sacrifice to him and will serve him saying: "This is Lord and beside him there is no other." 10 And the power of his miracles will be in every city and district. 11 And he will set up his image before him in every city.

He will set his tabernacle in Mount Zion in the city of Jerusalem:

Daniel 11:45

And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

He will do miracles in the world to deceive the world to believe in him.

Ascension of Isaiah 4:4-5

4 This angel, Beliar, will come in the form of that king and with him will come all the powers of this world, and they will obey him in every wish. 5 By his word he will cause the sun to rise by night, and the moon also he will make to appear at the sixth hour.

Revelation 13:12-15

12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

When he comes to power after the 1274th day, he will institute "the Mark of the Beast"

Revelation 13:16-18

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

There will come a trial for everyone's life at the hands of the false Prophet to accept him, worship the image of the beast, and receive the mark wherein many believers will actually fall away in unbelief:

Ascension of Isaiah 4:9

9 And the majority of those who have associated together to receive the Beloved, he will turn aside after him.

The False Prophet will cause the majority of those who were associated to receive the Beloved Christ to turned aside unto him. Christ explained these things to Peter in a Parable:

Apocalypse of Peter 2

And ye, take ye the likeness thereof learn a parable from the fig-tree: so soon as the shoot thereof is come forth and the twigs grown, the end of the world shall come.

This parable shows what else is necessary to come to pass before the end of the world shall come for the remnant of believers to be raptured up unto Christ in the air at his second coming.

Acts of Peter 2

And I, Peter, answered and said unto him: Interpret unto me concerning the fig-tree, whereby we shall perceive it; for throughout all its days doth the fig-tree send forth shoots, and every year it bringeth forth its fruit for its master. What then meaneth the parable of the fig- tree? We know it not. And the Lord answered and said unto me: Understandest thou not that the fig-tree is the house of Israel? Even as a man that planted a fig-tree in his garden, and it brought forth no fruit. And he sought the fruit thereof many years and when he found it not, he said to the keeper of his garden: Root up this fig-tree that it make not our ground to be unfruitful. And the gardener said unto Alahayim: Suffer us to rid it of weeds and dig the ground round about it and water it. If then it bear not fruit, we will straightway remove its roots out of the garden and plant another in place of it. Hast thou not understood that the figtree is the house of Israel? Verily I say unto thee, when the twigs thereof have sprouted forth in the last days, then shall feigned Christs come and awake expectation saying: I am the Christ, that am now come into the world.

This is the Devil in the form of the False Prophet speaking and acting like the Beloved saying "I am the Christ."

And when they (Israel) shall perceive the wickedness of their deeds they shall turn away after them and deny him whom our fathers did praise, even the first Christ whom they crucified and therein sinned a great sin.

As Isaiah foretold, the majority of those who were associated to receive the Beloved will turn aside after the False Prophet and here we see some of the Israelites will be amongst those that turn away because of the wickedness of their deeds that they will go after to continue in. [II Thess 2:8-12] At that same time, the true believers will not be deceived to believe in him or turn away unto him to sin.

But this deceiver is not the Christ. And when they reject him he shall slay with the sword, and there shall be many martyrs. Then shall the twigs of the fig- tree, that is, the house of Israel, shoot forth: many shall become martyrs at his hand. Enoch and Elias shall be sent to teach them that this is the deceiver which must come into the world and do signs and wonders to deceive. And therefore shall they that die by his hand be martyrs, and shall be reckoned among the good and righteous martyrs who have pleased Alahayim in their life.

There we see a portion of the believers in Christ will be reckoned amongst the good and righteous martyrs when they are killed by the False Prophet for rejecting him because they believe the teaching of Enoch and Elias that he is not the Christ but the deceiver that came into the world. Those believers who are reckoned as good and righteous martyrs will be amongst the dead in Christ who shall be risen at the sound of the trump at his second coming. [I Thess 4:16] Now Enoch and Elias that shall teach the people are referring to the Two Witnesses who had risen from the dead after they were killed by the Beast. They shall be there in the city of Jerusalem when the False Prophet is trying to deceive the very elect to teach them that he is not the Christ. After they witness of the truth to strengthen the remnant of believers that are there at that time, they will ascend into heaven just like Enoch and Elias did of old and that is why they are referred to as "Enoch and Elias" by the Lord Yache:

Revelation 11:12-14

And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the Alahayim of heaven. 14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

After the Two Witnesses ascend before the end of the world, there will be an earthquake in the city of Jerusalem that shall slay many men, yet this is not the last woe as there are more tribulations to come upon the world before the second coming of Christ. After the martyrdom of some of the believers, there will still be a remnant of the believers who will remain awaiting the coming of Christ so they can be raptured at his second coming.

Ascension of Isaiah 4:13

And many faithful and saints, when they saw Him for whom they were hoping, who was crucified, Yache the Lord Christ—after that I, Isaiah, had seen Him who was crucified and ascended— and who believed in him, of these few will be left in those days as His servants, while they flee from desert to desert, as they await his coming.

Those few faithful and saints are the blessed men that will remain and come to the 1335th day as Daniel spake of fleeing from desert to desert avoiding the Enemy, the mark of the beast and the world trying to destroy them that fear the Lord as they await the coming of Christ. By the 1331st day, the kingdom of Satan will fall during the last seven plagues to come during the last woe.

Revelation 16:1-4, 8-12

And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of Alahayim upon the earth. 2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. 3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. 4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of Alahayim, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. 10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 11 And blasphemed the Alahayim of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

Thats satan's 1331 days coming to an end

Revelation 16:12

And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

The kings of the East is referring to Christ, his angels, and his saints, who shall come from the heavens after Satan's time. Christ's second coming will not be until some point after the 1332nd day according to prophecy.

Ascension of Isaiah 4:14-16

14. And after (one thousand) three hundred and thirty-two days the Lord will come with His angels and
with the hosts of the saints from the seventh heaven with the glory of the seventh heaven, and He will drag
Beliar, and his hosts also, into Gehenna. 15. And He will give rest of the pious whom He finds in the body in this world, but the sun will be ashamed: 16. And to all who because of (their) faith in Him have cursed Beliar and his kings. But the saints will come with the Lord with their robes which are stored up in the seventh heaven above: with the Lord will come, those whose spirits are clothed, they will descend and be present in the world, and the Lord will strengthen those who are found in the body, together with the saints, in the robes of the saints, and will serve those who have kept watch in this world.

A Summary of the Events

The prophecies show no rapture for the remnant of believers will come until some point after the 1332nd day of the 1335 days in the ends of this world. There are a few events that must come to pass before the end comes for Christ to return and the remnant of believers to be raptured up unto him in the air. There must first be the two signs spoken of by Daniel to signify we are in the last 1335 days, which are the Abomination of Desolation being set up and the Daily Sacrifice being taken away. [Dan 12:11-12] Then the "Great Tribulation" will commence. [Matt 24:15-21] The Devil will get his rule for the initial 1331 days of that time though he will not reveal himself at that time. [Asc of Isa 4:12] Then the Devil will give authority unto the Beast for the initial 1274 days of his 1331 days of rulership. [Rev 13:1-7] At the same time, Christ will give power unto his two witnesses to prophesy for the initial 1260 days within the Beast's 1274 days. [Rev 11:3-6] After the two witnesses finish preaching, the Beast will still have 14 days left of his authority. The Beast will kill the two witnesses. They shall be dead 3.5 days and be resurrected from the dead. [Rev 11:7-11] After this, they will be amongst the saints who are awaiting the coming of Christ. [Apoc of Pet 2] After the Beast's authority is complete on the 1274th day, the Devil in the form of the False Prophet will be revealed and he will openly rule for the rest of his 1331 [Rev 13:11-15; Asc of Isa 4] days setting his tabernacle in Mount Zion. [Dan 11:45] He will implement the mark of the beast [Rev 13:16-18] and will gather the house of Israel before him to try them. [Apoc of Pet 2] Some will turn aside unto him and deny Christ, while the two witnesses will be there to teach the people that he is not the Christ but the deceiver and many Israelites will be reckoned as good and righteous martyrs at his hand when he kills them for rejecting him. [Apoc of Pet 2] The two witnesses will ascend to heaven from the city of Jerusalem where the False prophet will set his tabernacle after teaching the people the truth. [Rev 11:12-13] There will still be one more woe to come upon the world after these events so the end is not yet. [Rev 11:12-14] None the less, after these two events, the prophesying of the two witnesses and the martyrdom of the Israelites at the hands of the false prophet, then shall the end come as it was necessary for the Gospel of the kingdom to be preached by the two witnesses during the 1260 days [Matt 2414] and the good and righteous martyrs of the house of Israel to bud forth after believing the two witnesses that the False Prophet was the deceiver to die at his hand at some point between the 1274th day and 1331st day before the end could come according to scripture. [Apoc of Pet 2] After these things, the remnant of the faithful and saints will be fleeing from desert to desert awaiting the coming of Christ [Asc of Isa 4:13] and those who make it unto the 1335th day are blessed [Dan 12:12] and after the tribulations afore mentioned, they shall see Christ coming in the clouds to be raptured up unto him in the sky. [Matt 24:15-31]

So it is when Yache the Lord actually comes back in the clouds at the end of the world after the tribulations to come upon all the world that everyone shall go through, that the remnant of believers that will be left fleeing from desert to desert and hadn't died at the hands of the False Prophet will be the ones taken up, while those good and righteous martyrs that died at the hands of the false Prophet will be risen up and both will be caught up together in the clouds to be with Christ.

1Th 4:15-17

**There will be no rapturing up of any believers to heaven before the end of the world except for the two witnesses who shall ascend into heaven before the end comes according to prophecy.**

Christ's Prophecy of the End Times

We can look at what Yache told his disciples about the signs and events of the end to confirm the edification through precepts on when the rapture of the remnant of believers will be:

Matthew 24:3-6

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Yache answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

Remember, the end can’t come until after the Two Witnesses preach of the gospel and teach the house of Israel that the False Prophet is the deceiver so that they become good and righteous martyrs at his hands so the hearing of wars and rumors of wars are not the end yet.

Matthew 24:7-8

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

The current state of the world is just the beginning of sorrows. Things will get worse after the signs of Daniel occur to signify that we are entering the last 1335 days of the consummation of the times.

Matthew 24:15-19

When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

When the signs come to pass spoken of in Daniel, going to the land of Judea is not what we are suppose to do and if we happen to be there at that time, we have to depart and get to the places of Isaiah 11 where the remnant of the Lord's people, Jew and Gentile, will be gathered.

Matthew 24:20-22

But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

The time of the 1335 days after the two signs spoken of in Daniel is when “the great tribulation” shall come on all the world and everyone living will experience it yet the time will be shortened for the elect's sake, lest the Devil in the form of the False Prophet destroys all flesh as he desires to do during his 1331 day rule. Remember just because things will get bad in the great tribulation, it doesn’t mean the end has come yet, nor that Christ has returned as yet.

Matthew 24:10-12

And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

People will change as the spirit of hatred grows stronger in the world and love waxes cold, but those who endure in faith working to attain unto charity and maintain it unto the end shall be saved, whether after they are resurrected as good and righteous martyrs or they remain unto the second coming of Christ to be raptured unto him in the air.

Matthew 24:13

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Notice Christ said he that endures unto the end shall be saved. This shows those who will be saved have to make it to the end, which is after the preaching of the Gospel by the Two Witnesses (Matt 24:14) to either become Good Martyrs by dying at the hands of the False Prophet for rejecting him by the teaching of the Witnesses (Apoc of Pet 2) or making it into the number of that remnant of faithful saints who will be fleeing from the desert to desert awaiting the coming of Christ at some point after the 1332nd day. (Ascen of Isaiah 4:13-14)

Matthew 24:14

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Apocalypse of Peter Chapter 2

And ye, take ye the likeness thereof (learn a parable) from the fig-tree: so soon as the shoot thereof is come forth and the twigs grown, the end of the world shall come.

Matthew 24:32-33

Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

So after the Two Witnesses preach the Gospel of the Kingdom and teach the people that the False Prophet is the deceiver so that the good martyrs of Israel reject the False Prophet and are killed, the end is near and even at the doors. Remember, the preaching is during the 1260 days and the martyrdom of the righteous would be at someone point between the 1274th day unto the 1290th day during the Devil’s rulership. From the time after the good martyrs, the end is near and whomever endures unto the end of our world will be saved at the coming of Christ after the great tribulations:

Matthew 24:29-31

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: 30 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. 31 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.

That is the event of the rapturing of the remnant of believers who will be fleeing from desert to desert awaiting the coming of the Beloved wherein they shall be taken up unto the Lord in the air to be with him.

Matthew 24:40-41

Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

We all have to be watchful to keep from evil protecting our hearts and minds not to allow any evil thought or desire to turn us away from the faith lest our Lord come and find us in unbelief.

Mark 13:32-37

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

Though we do not know what day or hour he will come, the coming of Christ at the end of this world will be after the 1332nd day at some point and it will not be something that can be foreseen, yet when he comes, his coming cannot be hid either by his explanation:

Apocalypse of Peter 1

And our Lord answered us, saying: Take heed that no man deceive you, and that ye be not doubters and serve other alahayims. Many shall come in my name, saying: I am the Christ. Believe them not, neither draw near unto them. For the coming of the Son of Alahayim shall not be plain (i.e. foreseen); but as the lightning that shineth from the east unto the west, so will I come upon the clouds of heaven with a great host in my majesty; with my cross going before my face will I come in my majesty, shining sevenfold more than the sun will I come in my majesty with all my saints, mine angels (mine holy angels).

Seeing that his coming will be sudden and in glory, we are admonished not to believe the lies of his coming to come in these end times:

Matthew 24:23-25

Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before.

We have been forewarned so we don’t be deceived by the great wonders the False Prophet will do nor believe any report that Christ has returned before the end actually comes because he will be clearly seen coming in the clouds after the tribulation to come:

Matthew 24:26

Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

In closing, the tribulations must take place first, with all men experiencing them, while the gospel must be preached and the good martyrs must die at the hands of the False prophet. after these things, shall Yache return and send his angels to gather his people of the Jews and Gentiles. America would have already been destroyed by nuclear weapons because the 10 horns would have burned her with fire {Rev 17:16-18} by the end of the 1274th day (42 months), and Yache won’t be returning until after the 1332 day to save his elect and the righteous. {Ascension of Isaiah 4:14-15} With these facts, understand that there is no way anyone will be delivered up into the sky or heaven from America or other parts of the world, except for the two witnesses, before the coming of Christ. Unfortunately, the "pre-tribulation rapture" doctrine has been a stumbling block to lead astray mankind from the truth of the Spirit of Prophesy which shall bring all things to pass. The scriptures do show, who shall actually ascend and when they shall ascend and it is not until after the perils have begun so that we may know that we all shall experience the troubles to come and won't be taken away as a cloud from these perils. We are assured of this fact because even the Two witnesses won't ascend until after the time of the Beast's authority to war against the saints while the remnant of the elect of Israel and righteous Gentiles who flee from desert to desert won't ascend until Christ actually comes, so we know we all shall experience tribulation in these end times whether we are believers or unbelievers.
