Getting Caught Up With Rapture Heresy
[original post: 30-04-20 pw=pagan word]
QUESTION PUT TO US:
"Christ comes a second time when he will put his feet down on the Mount of Olives, that is the second coming, but before that, we who are Christians will be cought up and we will meet Christ in the air and those who have died in the Christ will be raised then and we will not go before them. How do we explain this event that will occur before the arrival on the Mount of Olives? After all these are separate events? That must be the rapture."
ANSWER :
1) Yes there are indeed two comings but not by the same person.
2) No, there is no
actual word "rapture" in the bible. Neither is there a left behind
second chance scenario which is attached to this Evangelical buzz-word.
TWO COMINGS:
1) The Coming of Yahuah Elohim - The Day of Yahuah (tribulation) to sift, judge, destroy, purify people depending on whether they obey Torah as taught by Yahuah and his Son.
2) The Second Coming of Yahushua - ascension and resurrection of the dead righteous together with the ascension of the living righteous who do not compromise in the tribulation together with the simultaneous killing of all living wicked (who are only resurrected 1000 years later to be destroyed in gehenna with satan and his demons. )
Because of your corrupted translation which uses "the LORD" you have been misled to believe this is referring to Yahushua (falsely translated Jesus). Whenever "LORD" in upper case appears in Tanakh ( falsely called Old Testament) know that it is the tetragrammaton יהוה which has been replaced with the Phoenician BAAL "god" LORD by the pagan translators.The confusion starts here:
It should read:
This confusion is intended and is repeated over 6 000 times when it comes to the translation of the Almighty's name. (See His Name ).
So Zec 14:1 refers to Elohim YHUH / Yahuah / יהוה (not Yahushua his Son) who touches Mount of Olives and himself who fights and brings judgment on the DAY OF YAHUAH.
[side note: It was YAHUAH himself who passed over Egypt and killed the firstborn as well. There was no angel of death.] YAHUAH's feet were seen at Mount Sinai as well.
Exo 24:10 And they saw the Elohim of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of shamayim (pw heaven) in his clearness.
Zech 14 is NOT about a "day of the Lord / Master Yahushua but "LORD" - ie YAHUAH. The day of Yahuah has always been about the day (period) of Judgement / Tribulation - "This is the Day that Yahuah has made" (not SUNday worship as your church has taught you either).

Note "day" here is NOT 24 hours - it's a period of years of tribulation (seven years is often assumed but nowhere given) :
If you believe you will be in the Haykal (pw temple) in shamayim (pw heaven) with Elohim before the plagues of tribulaiton then you are seriously mistaken.
WHY? Because the malik (pw angel) would not have sounded the LAST trumpet yet.
Rev 11:16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before Elohim on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped Elohim,
Rev 11:17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Master Elohim Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
Rev 11:19 And the haykal (pw temple) of Elohim was opened in shamayim, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his witness (pw testament): and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Acts 1:11 is used to suggest that because Yahushua appears to have been taken up at the Mount of Olives it means that it must be Yahushua whose feet touch it again.
But it says Yahushua shall come in "LIKE MANNER" not SAME PLACE. We do not meet Yahushua on any mount but in the air in the same manner he was seen ascending in the air, whe shall seem him at his second coming of which there is only one. There is no second chance.
There are no people, except Yahushua, in shamayim right now.
and no righteous believer gets in before anybody else until the first resurrection at THE LAST TRUMPET which is then followed by 1000 years after which the wicked dead are resurrected to attempt their last overthrow of Yahuah only to be destroyed in gehenna with satan and his demons.
Rev 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Rev 20:6 baruched and morally ordained is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of Elohim and of Mashiak, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Rev 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Rev 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from Elohim out of shamayim, and devoured them.
Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever
THE TERM RAPTURE:
Used by Evangelicals. It is claimed "That the word
"harpazo" in the Greek translates to mean rapture in English. But what
does Strong's concordance sayharpazō
har-pad'-zo
From a derivative of G138; to seize (in various applications): - catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force).
The etyomology of "Rapture" however is
Etymology rape (v.):
It can be seen how close the word rapture is to rape something that the demons committed against women on earth before the flood. It is clear that rapture is a "counterfeit".
The scripture does NOT USE RAPTURE so why use it???
2Co 12:2 I knew a man in Mashiak above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: Elohim knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third shamayim (pw heaven).
2Co 12:4 How that he was caught up (harpazō) into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up (harpazō) together with them in the clouds, to meet Yahushua in the air: and so shall we ever be with Yahushua.
Use Hebrew "awlaw" - "ascend", or use "caught up"

The Heart Behind A Rapture and Left Behind Scenario
Many Christians think they can escape the judgement/tribulation of Yahuah, the Day of Yahuah ( Zech 14). This heresy has been popularized by Tim LaHaye. If tribulation is in your lifetime then you will be in the tribulation for all ( believers and non-believers) must go through it. Yahushua said : this/that generation that sees the beginning of it would not pass away.As in Egypt plagues will come upon the wicked while the righteous are living in the land. The righteous pray and obey torah to escape these plagues while living in the land.
There is no "RAPTURE" and left behind scenario. These plagues will come upon you if you have not come out of Torahless Babylon ( pagan religion mixing with Rome) you are partaking of her Torah transgressions - profaning the shabbat (seventh day), eating pig, shrimp, lobster, calamari...worshiping a Jzeus god to name a few.
Covid-19 is a plague which has come upon the earth because of Torah transgression (See Listeriosis Pork To Eat Or Not To Eat And All Things Coronavirus ) because the world listens to the eaitng laws of the world and the pope not Yahuah and preaches the torahless doctrines of the pope. The late Billy Graham was/is one such agent.
You are high-minded and think that you are more righteous than the Jews who must be left behind and punished for rejecting a so-called "Jesus" for following a false religion called Judaim but then you do the very same thing when you reject the true Mashiak Yahushua and follow the false torahless religion of Rome and their torhaless imposterJzeus. (SEE But I am not Jewish )
Judaism also makes the torah void through tradition as does your Catholic Christ Mass and Ishtar (Easter) traditions to name a few. You blaspheme the name of Yahuah. REPENT and become a Yahudi worshiper of Yahuah and his Son Yahushua, OBEY TORAH. Come out of false man-made religions, Come out of Babylon.
