WHO IS GATHERED UP FIRST, the Church or the wicked? Stop a moment before you answer that question. Go back to the text and read it. I’ll wait . . . In the parable itself, the sower says to his servants: “First, gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up” (v. 30). In Jesus’ interpretation he says: “The Son of Man will send forth his angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father (vv. 41-43).”
When Jesus comes the SECOND time He will APPEAR to those who look for Him. Hebr 9:28. And when Jesus appear we will also APPEAR with Him. (Col 3:4) ( NOT DISAPPEAR) We will be gathering together unto Him.(2 Thes 2:1) This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.( Second time.Acts 1:11.) Immediately after the tribulation Jesus shall appear from Heaven in CLOUDS. (SECOND TIME) Matt. 24:29-30. When Jesus return He will descent from Heaven and we will meet Him in the air.( CLOUDS)1Thes 4:16). Looking for that BLESSED HOPE, and the glorious APPEARING of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Titus 2:13. When Christ, who is our life, shall APPEAR, then shall ye also APPEAR with him in glory. Colossians 3:4 (NOT DISAPPEAR RAPTURED ) When Jesus comes we will be gathering together unto Him.(2 Thes 2:1). (Jesus as well as the Church will be seen in the clouds. APPEAR) When Jesus return He will come in flaming fire and vengeance (APPEAR) to those unbelievers who had fallen away from the truth and then Jesus will be glorified and admired in his SAINTS in that day.(2Thes 1:8-10). We will be gathering together unto Him.(2 Thes 2:1) (Safe in the clouds and away from the flaming fire on the unbelievers on earth) Before Jesus comes the second time a falling away from the truth must take place for the antichrist to be revealed.(2Thes 2:3) When Jesus comes the second time He will DESTROY the antichrist with the brightness of His coming (APPEARANCE) and those who had fallen away and did not received or believed the love of the truth but believed a lie. (2Thes 2:8-12). Nobody is going to disappear in the twinkling of an eye (raptured) before Jesus comes the second time.
