Yes indeed, The Second Coming
of Christ Jesus is different from The Rapture of The Bride of Christ. They thus
happen at different Times (moments). The Rapture of The Bride of Christ first,
and a few Years later, The Second Coming of Christ. Therefore, a line has to be
drawn between The Second Coming of Christ and The Sudden Transformation of The
Holy Church (The Rapture of The Bride of Christ).
To break this down and to
understand it better, we need to ask ourselves: What is Tribulation? And what
is The Great Tribulation? Sometimes people mix the two. Sometime people
separate the two. While sometimes people call Birth Pains, Tribulation. While
for some, Tribulation means The Great Tribulation. Yet for some, Tribulation means The Great Tribulation and even Birth Pains all
combined.
Jesus Christ will come to pick
from the earth those who shall have been Ready for His Glorious Coming to Take
to Heaven a Holy Church (The Wise Ones/The Wise Virgins). He will be coming to
pick them and take them to Heaven to attend a Celebration that shall have been
organized by God The Father, to Celebrate the Conquest of The Blood of The LORD
Jesus Christ and the Fruit therein (The Bride of Christ: The Holy Church of
Christ). This will be The Wedding (Marriage) Supper of The Lamb; when Finally Christ Jesus
will have a moment to Celebrate in a Heavenly banquet, together with His Holy
Church (them who accepted His Salvation through The Cross and The Blood that He
shed at Calvary, in Jerusalem, Israel); Face to Face.
God The Father will send His
Son our LORD Jesus Christ The Messiah to come and Suddenly Pick His Bride from
the earth. The Bride of Christ will be Picked from the earth in an instant
(Suddenly/in a Twinkle of an eye) and Transformed from Mortal Bodies to
Immortal (Glorified) Bodies as they then move up the Sky and into the Clouds
en-route to The Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven. Christ Jesus will
come as a Thief and will leave as a Thief. Only The Repercussion of His action
will be felt and will be seen on the earth, even though only The Bride of
Christ will have seen Him and will have gone with Him. Christ Jesus will
essentially be coming to Disappear with His Bride. This is The Rapture of The
Bride of Christ.
Some say: “But The ‘Rapture’
is not in the Bible”. Well, this is what is written in The Bible, and this is
what Rapture is: ‘“For The LORD
Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel,
and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we
who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to
meet The LORD in the air. And thus we shall always be with The LORD.”’
During the Second Coming of
Christ, unlike during the Rapture of The Bride of Christ, All (everyone) on the
earth will see The LORD Jesus Christ The Messiah: He will not remain in the Air
(Sky/Clouds) nor disappear into Heaven, but will Be Seen By All and He will Step
on (be upon) the earth.
Before The Rapture of The Bride
of Christ occurs there is and there will be a moment of Purification by Fire.
This moment of Purification by Fire (The Holy Fire of The LORD) is known as The
Birth Pains. It is meant to awaken the Church, awaken everyone everywhere from
their deep slumber of a sinful lifestyle, that they may wake up and now Focus
on The LORD and entry into The Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven. It is and will
be a moment of Preparation for The Rapture of The Bride of Christ. The LORD
Himself will be Preparing the Church (them who shall have opened their hearts
to The LORD). Preparation by embracing Repentance for the forgiveness of sins
through The Blood of The LORD Jesus Christ and a Pursuance of Righteousness
(Right before The LORD), Holiness (separated and set apart for The Glory and
Honour of The LORD), Wisdom (Godly Fear; Reverence before The LORD), Understanding
(Shunning evil, sin, immorality and wickedness), Humility (Being Humble; and
fleeing Pride), Truth (as is written in The Bible).
The Birth Pains is (are) also
known as The Beginning of Sorrows, Distress of The Hour, A Time of Trouble such
as has not been since the beginning of Nations. Trouble, in terms of
Plagues/Diseases, Increased Earthquakes in Various Places, Historic Volcanic
eruptions, Historic Tsunamis, Historic Hurricanes, Historic Famines, Historic
Droughts, Historic “Climate Change”, Historic Snowstorms, Historic Social
upheavals, Historic Tension between Nations ETC.
The Birth Pains are not only a
Wake-up Call, but they are also a Purifying Fire to Separate the Wheat from the
Chaff. The Separation means that right in the Church, there is also Separation
that then ensues, that eventually yields Two Groups within The Church: The Holy
Bride of Christ (The Hot Church/The Wise Virgins) and The Lukewarm Church (The
Foolish Virgins). During The Rapture of the Bride of Christ, the Holy Bride of
Christ gets Taken (Raptured) into Heaven, while The Lukewarm Church Remains on
the earth (is Left Behind). The Lukewarm Church is actually Vomited out from
the mouth of God (From the Presence of God). It is a Church full of Poison
(spiritual poison), that Christ Jesus Cannot take into His Glory, in The
Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven. It is a half-baked (half-cooked)
Church that The LORD spits out of His mouth; He cannot take her in. The
Lukewarm Church tastes half-baked (half-cooked) in the mouth of The LORD (before The LORD),
The LORD thus has got no option but to spit her out of His Mouth (Out of His
Presence). She cannot be allowed in (into The Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty
in Heaven).
Immediately after The Rapture
of The Bride of Christ, the earth is plunged into The Great Tribulation Period,
wherein The Left Behinds (Including the Lukewarm Church, The False
Worshipers-Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Satanists etc., including atheists) will
be found. The Great Tribulation Period will be a Period of The Wrath of God
upon the earth. It will be a moment of worse Distresses (Troubles) than The
Distresses (Trouble) of The Birth Pains. During The Great Tribulation Period,
The Anti-Christ (The False Messiah) will arise and he will proclaim to be the
Saviour of the World from its Turmoil and Distress. Satan will instruct him to introduce
The Mark of The Beast, which will be made mandatory worldwide, such that nobody
will be able to buy or sell anything without The Mark of The Beast. Remember,
The Anti-Christ is Revealed to the World (or is allowed to Reveal himself to
the World) after The Rapture of The Bride of Christ. The Holy Spirit that is in
(dwells in the Temple inside) The Bride of Christ Restrains him (The
Anti-Christ) until The Bride is Taken away to safety in her Chambers in Heaven.
However, to those (Servants of God) whom The LORD decides to Reveal to about
the identity and the activities of The Anti-Christ, The LORD Reveals to them
about The Anti-Christ (including his identity) before The Rapture of The Bride
of Christ.
The Great Tribulation Period will
coincide with a Special moment that The LORD God Almighty shall have reserved for His Chosen People (The Apple of His Eye) Jews (Israelites/Israel),
known as Jacob’s Trouble. It will be a moment when The LORD will wake up (open
the eyes of Jews) to the identity of their Messiah (Jesus Christ the Messiah/Yeshua/Yahushua
Ha Mashiach the Son of The Living God). It will be a Period of Turmoil and
Desolation for Israel (Israelites/Jews), and it will culminate in Israelites
finally Receiving Christ Jesus The Messiah as their Saviour/Messiah, and they
will Proclaim in reference to Him: “Blessed is He who comes in The Name of The
LORD!!!”. Thus The Elect of The LORD will finally be Gathered and Redeemed.
During this moment (of Jacob’s Trouble) the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 and the
144,000 sealed Servants of The LORD will operate in various Places, even though
their base will be Jerusalem, Israel.
Christ Jesus The Messiah will then
Come (At His Second Coming: The Second Coming of Christ) to end The Great
Tribulation, and to end Jacob’s Trouble. He will Come to Finish once and for
all The Anti-Christ (The First Beast), The False Prophet (The Second Beast) and
all evil People. He will Face them and destroy them at The Armageddon War. At
His Second Coming, Christ Jesus will step His Feet on Jerusalem, Israel and the
ground will split into three at that instance, via a Historic Great Earthquake.
Remember, unlike during the Rapture of The Bride of Christ, All (everyone) on
the earth will see The LORD Jesus Christ The Messiah. He will not remain in the
Air (Sky/Cloud) as was during the Rapture of The Bride of Christ nor disappear
into Heaven, but will appear to all and He will Step on (be upon) the earth.
During this Time, The Elect of Christ will be gathered (by Angels of The LORD)
from 4 Corners of the earth. Who are the Elect? The Elect are the Children of
Israel (The Jews/Israelites/Israel). Yes, including those who shall have
Finally Accepted Jesus Christ The Messiah as their saviour (and will not have
Taken The Mark of The Beast) across the nations.
Shortly thereafter, The 1,000
Year Reign of Christ (The Millennium Reign) will begin upon the earth. The
earth shall have been restored to the Beauty, the Stature and the Status of
Garden of Eden. As it was in the Beginning, so shall it be Again.
SHALOM!!! SHALOM!!! SHALOM!!!
So from the above Word exposition,
this thus is The Sequence (Order) of the Events (Moments/Periods):
1-BIRTH PAINS: If you read the Bible
very keenly, you will note that this is actually sometimes referred to as “Tribulation”
in The Bible; in the context of Distresses, Troubles and Sorrows that will be
therein. The Bible talks about “The Beginning of Sorrows/Birth pains”.
The earth is currently at this
Juncture: The Birth Pains (The Beginning of Sorrows/Birth Pains).
In this context, some people
do say: “we are in Tribulation” (meaning Distresses of the Hour). While some others
do say: “No we are not in Tribulation”; for to them, “Tribulation” only means
events happening in The Great Tribulation Period.
Who is right and who is wrong?
Are they both right? Are they both wrong? It does not matter.
Perhaps that's why some do
say: “The Church will go through Tribulation.” But are they talking in the
general context of “Tribulations” of Birth Pains (Distresses, Troubles, Sorrows
and Trials therein during Birth Pains, before The Rapture of The Bride of
Christ)? I hope when they say so, they are not referring to The Great
Tribulation Period (of the Wrath of God upon the sinful earth; that has refused to Repent). Because the Only Church that will go through The Great
Tribulation Period is/are: The Lukewarm Church (The Foolish Virgins).
2-THE RAPTURE OF THE BRIDE OF CHRIST
3-THE GREAT TRIBULATION PERIOD
(The Moment of The Wrath of God Upon the earth; Escalated Level of “Tribulations”.
Worse Distresses of The Hour). The Bible talks about the Days of The Great
Tribulation being shortened, for the sake of The Elect. Will it be shortened to
3.5 Years (1,260 days/42 Months)? The clue is GLARINGLY in The Bible (The Book
of Revelation)
4-THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST JESUS THE
MESSIAH (Wherein evil people will be wiped out of the earth and The
Elect of Christ will be gathered from the 4 corners of the earth)
5-MILLENNIUM REIGN OF CHRIST on
Earth (Together with His saints): 1,000 Years. Christ Jesus will be based in Jerusalem, Israel.
6-ETERNITY in The Kingdom of The
LORD God Almighty in Heaven.
SHALOM!!!
NOTE: Some
People refer to The Great Tribulation as “The Tribulation”. Others Refer to The
Birth Pains as “The Tribulation”. Others say, “The Tribulation first and then
The Great Tribulation follows”. Others say it is all combined as one (The Great
Tribulation). Others say, “Birth Pains and Great Tribulation are one and the
same thing”.
Do not get caught up in these “Theological
Jargons”, “Theological Debates”, “Theological Categorization” “Theological Arguments” (Pre-Tribulation, Mid-Tribulation,
Post-Tribulation), and “Theological Positioning”; it all does not add much value to
your Spiritual growth, Spiritual development and Spiritual maturity.
You just Prepare the Way for
The Coming of The Messiah Jesus Christ, that your Name be found Written in The
Book of Life, and that you be amongst them who will be taken to The Kingdom of
The LORD God Almighty in Heaven (Including for the Wedding Supper of The Lamb);
that you may escape All that is coming upon the earth (The Great Tribulation
Period).
The LORD has Not appointed His
faithful Sons and Daughters (The Bride of Christ) for The Wrath of The Great
Tribulation Period, even though they are and will go through the Trial and The
Purification by Fire: The Great Wake-up Call/The Birth Pains. Therefore, The
Holy Church of Christ (The Bride of Christ) does not go through The Great
Tribulation Period, but goes through The Birth Pains (The Great Wake-up Call/The
Purification by Fire), which are already happening and will continue to Happen.

1st Thessalonians 4: 13-18 ‘“But I do not want you to be ignorant,
brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as
others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and
rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
For this we say to you by the word of The LORD, that we who are
alive and remain
until the coming of The LORD will by no means precede those who are asleep. For The
LORD Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an
archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will
rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds to meet The LORD in the air. And thus we shall always be with
The LORD. Therefore comfort one another with these words.”’
Isaiah
26:19-21 ‘“But
your dead will live, LORD; their bodies will rise—let those who dwell
in the dust wake up and shout for joy—your dew is like the dew of the
morning; the earth will give birth to her dead. Go,
my people, enter your rooms (chambers) and shut the doors behind you;
hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed
by. See, The LORD is coming out of his dwelling to
punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will disclose the
blood shed on it; the earth will conceal its slain no longer.”’
Daniel
12: 1-4 ‘“At
that time Michael shall stand up, The great prince who stands watch over the
sons of your people; And there shall be a time of trouble, Such as never was
since there was a nation, Even to that time. And at that time your people shall
be delivered, Every one who is found written in the book. And many of those who
sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to
shame and everlasting contempt. Those who are wise shall shine Like the
brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness Like the
stars forever and ever." “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the
book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall
increase.”’
Revelation
3: 14-21 ‘“And
to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, ‘These things says the Amen, the
Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: “I know your works, that you are neither
cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are
lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because
you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do
not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—I counsel you to
buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white
garments, that you may be clothed, that the
shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye
salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore
be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If
anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine
with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit
with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His
throne.”’
Revelation
16:15 ‘“Behold, I am
coming as a thief. Blessed is he
who watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his
shame.”’
Mathew
24: 1-8 ‘“Now
as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately,
saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming,
and of the end of the age?” And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take
heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying,
‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars
and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but
the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes
in various places. All these are the
beginning of sorrows.”’
Mathew
24: 9-14 ‘“Then
they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by
all nations for My name’s sake. And then many will be offended, will
betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many
false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness
will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who
endures to the end shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will
be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end
will come.”’
Mathew
24: 15-28 ‘“Therefore
when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the
prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him
understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let
him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. And
let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. But woe
to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! And
pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. For then
there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of
the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days
were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those
days will be shortened. “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do
not believe it. For false
christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to
deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told
you beforehand. “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do
not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do
not believe it. For
as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the
coming of the Son of Man be. For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles
will be gathered together.”’
Mathew
24: 29-31 ‘“Immediately
after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon
will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the
heavens will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in
heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see
the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And
He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather
together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the
other.”’
Luke
21: 34-36 ‘“But take
heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing,
drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you
unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on
the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be
counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of Man.”’
1st Corinthians 15: 50-54 ‘“Now
this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of
God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell 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 trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and
the dead will 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 has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on
immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death
is swallowed up in victory.”’
Revelation
1:7 ‘“Behold, He is
coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced
Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.”’
PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IN
ABSOLUTE REPENTANCE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, HOLINESS, TRUTH AND COMPLETE SURRENDER TO

I Repent and turn away from all Sin.
