Joe:
> 1. Why is the last trump that the rapture is supposed to
take place at not
> the last trump of revelations? The seventh Trumpet?
Me:
The last trump in Jewery was the trumpet blown just before
the feast of tabernacles ended. It was a sort of "last
call" to have your sins payed for before you when back in
from the tent into the "permanent" dwelling.
If you didn't make it into the "house" by the "last trump"
you were left out in the cold.
There is also a "last trump" in the weddings. When the
groom had returned with his bride and had entered the place
he had prepared for his bride, they would blow on the
shofar (don't etch that trumpet name in stone, I am doing
this from the top of my bald little head) and if you didn't
make it into the house by the time the gates were closed,
again you were left out in the cold among the wolves,
robbers, etc....
The Jews understood that this did not mean the "last"
trumpet blast EVER but was a demarkation between the saved
and those who were left "outside."
Joe:
> 2. What Gospel is going to be preached for that
time...the everlasting
> gospel? And if so who is going to preach it?
Me:
The same Gospel that is preached now and the two witnesses
that stand in front of the Temple will preach this with
signs and wonders.
Joe:
Is God going to rapture
> the wise virgins and then the foolish virgins are the
one who are going
> to evangelize the world?
Me:
Ask yourself this, "How many people got into the Ark when
the gate was closed and it started to rain?"
The period refered to by the Trinitarians as "The Great
Tribulation" is in truth "The Great Outpouring of God's
Wrath." The "tribulation" is the persecution that the
Chruch will suffer just prior to the rapture. Just after
the rapture God will sanctify 144,000 Jews (making them
"saints," look the word up) and if it were not for these
(the Elect) sake all flesh would be consumed.
Here is a QUICK chronology: Great falling away, Tribulation
of the Church, Rapture, Marking of the 144,000 (saints),
Two witnesses preach, Plagues poured out on Earth,
Witnesses killed, Great man of Sin in all power, God
destroys much of Earth, People get discouraged, Demons do
"miracles" and people renew assault, Jews run to Jesus at
"Har Meggido", Vast army of unholy trinity attack, Jesus
speak a Word, blood runs 4 feet deep, Jesus and saints rule
for 1000 years while Satan is bound, Satan released for
short while, Satan thrown into pit, sinners thrown into
pit, Jesus bows to God, God speaks a Word, Elements "melt",
Everything made NEW--GOD IS ALL IN ALL!
Again, I did this of the top of my head so if a thing or
two is out of place, don't turn crimson. I will do a more
through job later.
