- Is the rapture taught in the Bible? What is Paul teaching in 1 Corinthians 15:51 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13? What does it mean to be left behind?

As a recovering Baptist exploring Lutheranism I enjoyed this immensely. Your high-tech solution to the problem of adding text to the videos was a wonderful bonus, too! Thank you for your ministry both here, on Issues Etc, and elsewhere!
@mmcleod06 welcome to Word&Sacrament, Law&Gospel, Solas!
@mmcleod06: Are you familiar with what Pastor Dennis McFadden wrote about leaving the Baptist tradition and becoming a Lutheran pastor, especially WHY (caps for emphasis, not screaming :) he switched?
@@@rickpettey8822 I have not come across his account but I will begin the quest now! Thank you for the tip!
If you wish I can send it to you via email. My email address is: sthilary@trinityfredericktown.net FWIW - I am a Lutheran pastor. I received my B.A. in biblical studies at Palm Beach Atlantic University (a S.B.C. school in West Palm Beach, FL. ). As the only Lutheran in the pre-ministerial program I had many opportunities to discuss and debate theology with my Baptist's brothers in Christ. Pax.
mmcleod06: btw - I should have mentioned that I am referring to an article Pastor McFadden wrote for the Issues' Etc. Journal a number of years ago. He was a Baptist for 60 years and a pastor for 40. Though he was high in the General Baptist's echelon, he became dissatisfied with the theology. This drove him back throughout the history of what he believed and ended up at the Lutheran Reformation. He is now a L.C.M.S. pastor in Fort Wayne, IN. Pax.
I remember when I had to present this fact to my church group and they all came to me as if I offended them.
I left that church.
People want to be lied to and comforted and don't think about the long term effects of such a dangerous doctrine. They can't handle the truth. You did the right thing.
You were very brave and shared the truth. God bless you ❤️
@mal'ak emeth you said all of this but didn't give one reference, not one single verse from the bible not taken out of context to support a pretrib rapture. I think the main reason pretrib Believers don't hear or acknowledge points pertaining to post trib rapture is because you don't want to hear it. You're afraid and pretrib teaching comforts you. Let's say for instance you're right though. The pre-trib rapture is truth. What makes you think you won't be persecuted and possibly killed before the tribulation starts? Why are you more special than Christians in China and the Islamic countries who are experiencing persecution and death as we speak. I'm prepared for anything. If I'm wrong, great but what do you say to the martyrs over the past 2000 years when it comes to a pre trib rapture? Why weren't they saved from the hour of temptation?
@mal'ak emeth I think you kind of missed the point. I understand the tribulation hasn't started. But I don't think you understand you haven't been persecuted in the manner which I'm speaking. I'm talking about being tracked down, running for your life, narrowly escaping with your life. The way the people who I'm referring to have. You said you can give so much evidence and it says plain as day that we will be magically caught up before the death and persecution begins but you still haven't. You bring up John Darby but I didn't say anything about him. I'm speaking strictly from the word of God. Where does it say a rapture will occur, hell will break loose on Earth and then a matter of years later Christ will come back again? The only thing I read in the Bible is Christ's first coming and his second coming. Is it II Thessalonians chapter 2 you referring to? As I said, you should probably read that entire chapter and not take it out of context because there is absolutely nowhere in the Bible that says we're going to avoid this persecution. Are we going to avoid God's wrath? Yes. That's what you're referring to and just don't know it. That's the second coming. The end. When it's all said and done. The end of the story. Why would I be condemned to hell because I'm not clear on a scripture if I believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and that he died for my sins? I read the Bible and I don't believe in any way that you're going to hell because you believe in the rapture. He is not willing that any should perish. Correct? So maybe it's you who doesn't have an understanding of what the word actually says.
@mal'ak emeth FYI I was just giving my take on what I get from the word. We can disagree. I think it's healthy to discuss it. Honestly though, I'm having trouble figuring out how a supposed Bible believing Christian who knows the word so well can so freely spew as much contempt and condemnation as you. Just to let you know I don't feel that way towards you at all
The simple truth of the Gospel sheds it's marvelous light on error and replaces it with the sweet comfort of Christ crucified and risen for me.
Great Job Brian! I wanna be you when I grow up.
Those cards handwritten & the video of the supermarket... too funny brilliant brilliant I love your humour mixed with the best theology thank you for making me laugh and teaching me God’s Word. ✍🏽🤝
His humor refreshing!
I'm a low tech fan.
If you have legible handwriting, that is ... .
He is a great teacher.
@@ritarevell7195 Bryan Wolfmueller is NOT a great teacher. he is wrong with his interpretation. he is misleading his viewers on this specific topic.
Everything about this video is perfect -- the editing, music, theology, driving, sharks! Pure gold!
everything but the truth.
It does say that we will be “caught up” to meet the Lord in the air. And the word “rapture” is simply the Latin-based word for “caught up.” In other words, we Christians will be “raptured,” “caught up,” to meet Jesus in the air when he comes again. This is true. But it’s what the Rapture teachers tack onto that, and how they misunderstand it-that’s where they go wrong.
Good job, Rev. Wolfmueller. The Matthew 24:40 text is also supported in Matthew13:30 "Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn." The elect are the ones left behind in both scenarios. I want to be left behind.
Been around many different churches over my life, but your simple explanation here might be the best I've heard. Thank you.
A lifelong Lutheran, finally someone that gave me a clear and concise explanation of the rapture. Thank You so much. God Bless!😊
Those with God's wisdom doesn't teach the rapture. We teach the Resurrection in Yeshua.
You do what very few preachers do and that is preach the truth you have a subscriber!
Thank you Pastor. I love your low- tech presentation - it was succinct and clear. God bless.
Love your videos so far.. been watching your videos for a few weeks now and really been compelling serious thought on a few things... I believe in Christ as my lord and savior ... I can’t remember if I was ever dipped, sprinkled or immersed in water in baptism but I believed that I was baptized with the holy spirit in the name of the father, son and the Holy Spirit sometime ago when I first started to follow Christ when I was around 16 or so. I have wrestled with a few doctrines that I have heard in the church i have been at since then and even in the Bible study that I have been committed to the past 5 years and have confidence that the holy spiritual leads me into all truth which brings me to want to thank you for your videos. I believe the Holy Spirit lead me to your videos. What I really appreciate about your videos is the amount of scripture you go to . You don’t go to your own ideas, philosophy or logic you just simply let the scripture speak and I love that. 2. Love your style of video making has made watching your videos very comfortable and easy to follow . 3. Your tone is very humble and I can really get the impression that you love the lord and love his word . Thank you brother wolf mueller for your time in putting these videos together.
wrong. Bryan Wolfmueller did go on his OWN ideas and own opinions on this topic.
Ok ..got a brilliant idea for you ..write your note on each side of the card ..that way you can read it while holding it up for us to read …am very fond of your low tech as reading it and hearing it from you at the same time makes it stick for some reason 💚💚💚☘️☘️☘️ Thank you so much for changing my perspective completely….you fixed my eyes on waiting for Jesus instead of exposing all the satanic doings ..What a great time to be alive !!!
I bet I've watched 50 videos about the rapture...some for it, some against. Many are so confusing, that I never figured out which side they were on. This was clear, concise and made perfect sense. Thank you!!!
sad to say, but this video is a misleading topic. protestants call it rapture, the bible calls it "caught up". Bryan Woflmueller misinterpreted the verses.
Except he failed to compare the different events of each.
AMEN Brother! Thank you for your clear, yet simple teaching!
When does our Lord come in the clouds? By His own lips: “AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS!” When are His people “gathered together” according to Paul? At His coming, which will be heralded by the LAST TRUMP - which is when the dead in Christ are raised first ON THE LAST DAY!
Exactly!
True
yeah like a thief in the night “Understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into,” and 1 Thessalonians 5:2, “You know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.”
yeah people make it what they want to hear . 1260 days is 1260 its not a surprise as red words say ""Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.""
@@luvdady that is until you understand the fifth seal, which is in conjunction with Matthew 24:22. Those days will be shortened because of the elect, which is the cry of martyrs (Rev 6:9-11).
@@mikek001 yeah well if you say so....
Comfort each other. The teaching about the rapture is supposed to be comforting.
Never heard that before. Thanks
You put so much time and work into your videos. Thank you dear sir! We appreciate you!
This is exactly what I needed!
Born and raised a Lutheran, like my family before me, but lately got confused with the whole ‘rapture’ doctrine, certain other denominations were spieling all of this so called pre-trib rapture, then turned around and mocked lutherans for not “believing in the rapture”
While it’d be nice to go up in the clouds to be with the lord, and come back as a part of his army like certain baptists reckon, now I know that I’d much rather be on the ground, looking for the lord when he returns.
You don't understand the difference between the Rapture and the second coming of Jesus.
Thank you🙏 for this very clear explanation from Scripture about this topic! The was raised Lutheran, joined the Baptists in my teens and was there for nearly 20 years, but have returned to the Lutheran church I was raised in. I found out a few months ago that Lutherans don't believe in the rapture and it's been troubling me since. This video, however, has made this teachings very clear from Scripture, what the teaching actually is. The greatly appreciate your time in study, research, and making this video, extremely helpful! Thank you🙏!
Praise be to God one of the few that believe the truth of the bible.
Great video, Pastor. Your hi-tech is just my kind of tech....it glorifies the Lord and shows the high view of Scripture. Keep up the good work! PS...LOL about the guy with the 'Bachelor til the Rapture' tee..."he's gotten married since then"...hahaha!
@Zell dincht so the scriptures are lying you say? What make you so sure about that? Have you some scriptures to prove contredict the ones we just read in this video? I'm curious. Because if you chose to reject even one verse of the Bible it's call; Idolatry. Making your own version of God and its really wrong. 1st commandment. You reject one scripture, you already had reject the entire Word of God; The Bible
Zell dincht You are 100% correct because you HEAR the voice of Christ and the scriptures confirm this and this being in direct reference to his return, you rejected the very first thing Jesus warned you about concerning his coming!
Matthew 24
3 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 THE END OF THE WORLD?
4 And Jesus 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.
Matthew 24
29 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 then 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.
William Bouchard-Robichaud
Actually did you not read what Jesus said in
Matthew 24
4 And Jesus 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.
The very first thing Jesus commands you to do is "TAKE HEED THAT NO MAN DECEIVE YOU. MANY will come in his name a nd DECEIVE MANY.
The "pretrib rapture" is that very thing there are MANY teachers, MANY preachers, MANY churches, MANY books and even movies that push that FABLE since Jesus answers the question directly when asked.
Took and taken is death.
The one left, if he endures until the end, he will see the kingdom of heaven.
amen to this man of god who speaks the true word of the ONE TRUE LIVING GOD
NiceNjazxy, Bryan Wolfmueller is far from being a man of God, he is religious, and there's great differences between religious and regeneration.
Bryan's views on the rapture are erroneous, Hence him twisting the scriptures.
it's a false teaching.
No pretrib rapture. It's wishful interpreting. No context actually teaches it. It's an idea brought to each passage from someplace else.
Casting doubt, mocking God's word, making false accusations and false allegations, and lying about the truth.
You have revealed what you are all about and who you follow
Jesus loves you and Jesus died for the redemption of sin to present us before our Heavenly Father. Jesus is Love.
@@Henry-eh2jk I cast doubt on unbiblical doctrines, and you should too. Save your accusations for someone who just believes without checking all passages in context. You need to be a Berean.

I agree with everything that this pastor said in this video. And especially the Matthew 24 reference. Very good and simply put. So that a child could understand, if you are a Galaxy Quest fan, the movie.
Truly a great service thank you for putting this video together
You are the smartest in technology. Simple and easy. Love the content of this video too. Keep it coming Pastor. Been learning a lot from you.
I always wondered about the rapture but was never certain about it but what I’ve heard here makes total sense so Thankyou for putting this right 👍
Scripture tells us in one event Christ comes to get His saints, in the other Christ returns with His saints. One event Christ tells us no one knows when He is coming, in the other it tells us exactly when He is coming. In one event Christ meets us in the air, in the other Christ touches down on earth. That is scripture
Sooo goooood!!! (And the music, also)
Amen!!! Finally sound doctrine!! Very comforting ❣️ Thankyou Yeshua!
It is sound doctrine until the events of the rapture and 2nd coming are compared.
@@sammygomes7381 Then compare them! Back up your comment with Scripture for us. Don’t just leave smug comments.
@@blueskymut Would love to use scripture.
Tell me what will it be like during the tribulation with 2/3 of the people killed? Will life be normal with people eating, marrying, and giving in marriage?
Thank you for these comforting words of good news.
It seems very clear, yes. "but he who endures to the end will be saved". This would seem to dispel the pre-trib idea.
IT'S IMPORTANT BELIEVERS WAKE UP!!! HE RETURNS "AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS"!!! READ YOUR BIBLES!!!
Mat 24:29 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:

Awesome! Thank you for explaining the Rapture so clearly! ✝️🕊
I think, in the days of Noha, those who were taken were taken for life and those who left behind were perished. In the same way, as written in Matthew, believers will be taken up and non believers will stay back. Thesolenuans tells the same - the living at that time will be taken up and will remain with the Lord.
Rapture doesn't just means rising of the dead believers and changing of the living believers but it also means taking up of the believers to the Lord and staying with him for ever.
Amen.🙏🏼 The whole purpose of the rapture is for God to take his church with Him and deliver us from the tribulation. Those who will be left behind will have to “DIE FOR JESUS”. It’s going to be brutal. Man will be forced to become of one religion. If they don’t, they will be killed, Beheaded. If they choose to ‘DIE FOR JESUS”they inherit the kingdom of God in that very moment after they are killed. I Don’t know about you, but I would rather be lifted up during the rapture then to have to face such Torture.
Revelation 20:4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
Remember during the rapture , the Holy Spirit will leave the earth and go up with us. That means that God’s hand will be lifted off the earth and all hell is going to break loose.. The Grace Period WILL be over. LISTEN, You do NOT want to be left behind to experience so much evil and pain.
If you think there is evil now? this is NOTHING compared to what’s coming.
Listen reader,
If we don’t believe in the rapture and our heart’s , souls and minds aren’t seeking and waiting for the rapture, You’re not going.
Jesus is coming for his bride. You are invited to this wedding. I don’t know about you but when I’ve been invited to a wedding I love preparing for it. Thinking about what I will wear and the date getting closer gets me excited to be part of that wedding. In this case we don’t know the time or the day , and what we wear will not matter. The only preparation is with our soul . Receive Christ in your heart as your Lord and Savior now. He will clothe you.
I personally can’t stop thinking about it, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, telling people about it! The signs that the Bible teaches of things happening BEFORE the rapture , ARE happening now. One example , The building of The Temple.
🙌🏼Praise be to God!! 🙌🏼🙏🏼 The gospel is very clear and very simple
May God bless you.
.People get ready!. ❤️
You just figured out what’s wrong with religion there is no such thing as I think in the Bible read it as it says and define your words in old testament Hebrew and New Testament Greek! When you’re talking about the Bible there is no opinions and never say I think NEVER!
Wrong
You need to reread Matthew 24 37-39 and see who it says were taken, and who was left. Also consider the parable of the wheat and tares, you can find that in Matthew 13.

Scripture tells us in one event Christ comes to get His saints, in the other Christ returns with His saints. One event Christ tells us no one knows when He is coming, in the other it tells us exactly when He is coming. In one event Christ meets us in the air, in the other Christ touches down on earth.

The Bible teaches that the true church will be "caught up", the Greek word in the original text is "harpotzao" the English equivalent is "rapture", or "caught up".
the Greek verb harpazo, meaning, “to seize upon, spoil, snatch away or take to oneself." not "rapture"

36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

On the brightside bursting out of a shark upon resurrection seems pretty cool(although I dont think thats how the resurrection works)
Thank you for Law & Gospel!
Thanks Pastor Wolfmueller.
Loved this. Thank you.
Thank you this is one of the clearest explanation against pre trib doctrine hundred percent Biblical
Pre tribulation is not biblical.. it goes against many doctrines.. 2 gospels (one for Christian, one for Jews) saved by works.. don’t get mark of beast to get saved. 3 resurrections (rapture, jews, wicked) instead of 2 as mentioned in the bible ( for the just and unjust )
the explanation is not clear and is false.
Jesus is very clear.
Everything happens when Jesus comes back at the “last day.”
“For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”
John 6:40
“There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day.”
John 12:48
“Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice and come out-those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned!”
John 5:28-29
Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran, and Reformed all believe this.
The non-denomination denominations (who “go by the Bible”- LOL) are deceived into believing their pre trib rapture heresy.
emanuel kournianos I have always attended a Baptist church before last year and am still pretty young, a freshman in college. I attend a non denominational church now that seems almost the exact same as my previous church. Not sure what I believe about the rapture and tribulation but like those verses said, all believers will be with God eternally on the last day. I think in the end it isn’t essential what you believe about the rapture, and is an open handed argument, obviously some denominations will be wrong in the end but it isn’t what determines salvation. What is important is that believers believe that Jesus Christ was sent to die for our sins and without Gods grace we can’t be saved.
Sam Fondren good for you. I used to be Catholic now I am just a Christian with no religious affiliation. I figured it in my sophomore year of Catholic high school that something didn’t feel right in my spirit about confessing to a man, priest or not, when Jesus told us the only one who can grant forgiveness was Him, Jesus Christ. And the pope has always made me feel creepy. Just my opinion but he makes me really upset now. He is NOT Gods spokesman on earth. Just the ruler of a town called Vatican and may just be the False Prophet. My opinion only.
Sam Fondren meet you in the air, soon I hope😇😇🙏🙏
If you read John 6:9-40 carefully, you'll see that Jesus speaks of two different events. Verse 39 is the last day for the church because the church age ends at the pretrib rapture. Verse 40 speaks of the last day of the tribulation! Two different days just as Jesus described in scripture!
In Luke 17:22, Jesus tells us there are ‘days’ of the Son of Man. ‘Days’ is plural. There is more than one ‘day’ of the Son of man. Jesus says that we will ‘long to see ONE of them and will not see.’
Jesus gives different descriptions of these ‘days’ to two different groups of people. The first description of a Day of the Son of Man is given in Matthew 24:3-31, Mark 13:3-27 and Luke 21:5-28. In these verses, the DISCIPLES ask Jesus for the sign of His coming, and Jesus answers them with a list of signs which are included in the book of Revelation and comprise what is widely accepted as the Tribulation. Jesus ends each of these passages with a pictorial description of His second coming, that those on earth will watch Him arrive in the clouds with much power and glory. In Revelation 19:11-21, John gives us even more detail right down to describing Jesus’ eyes as He approaches earth. This coming of Christ to earth will be witnessed by everyone. It is the one by which people will know their redemption draws near. Luke 21:27-28.
However, in Luke 17:20, the PHARISEES ask Jesus about the coming of God’s kingdom. Jesus tells them ‘the kingdom of God comes without observation’ (ocular evidence 3907). Kingdom is defined by the Greek as ‘royalty, rule or realm,’ (932). So, Jesus tells the Pharisees that the royalty of God comes without visible signs. Jesus is not talking about His millennial kingdom. He is saying the kingdom of God is Him, He is the royalty of God and will come without ocular evidence or visible signs. In verse 21, Jesus goes on to say, “nor will they say, Lo here, Lo there!” For behold the kingdom of God is in your midst (defined as inside or within 1787).” Here, Jesus states that no one will see Him ahead of time, no one will exclaim His coming, only that He will appear within His people. 1 John 3:2, that when we see Him, we shall be like Him. When Jesus appears to us in the clouds, we will be like Him. He will be within us in an unprecedented way.
So, Jesus says one of His days has signs and one doesn’t. Since the second coming is preceded by all the signs of the tribulation, the rapture must be the day of the Son of Man which has no signs.
Using these instructions from Jesus, it is pretty simple to separate the rapture scriptures from the second coming scriptures. For example: 1 Thessalonians 4:17 has no visible signs, Jesus just shows up and collects those who belong to Him, so it refers to the rapture. 2 Thessalonians 2 has the signs of the ‘falling away’ and the appearance of the man of sin, so it references the second coming. This same method, given by Jesus, applies to every end time scripture. This is the reason I know 1 John 3:2 references the rapture and not the second coming. It clearly states that when Jesus is revealed, we will be like Him, without listing any preceding signs.
Please trust Jesus to deliver you as He promises. If you miss the rapture there is no escape from the tribulation. 1 Thess. 5:3.
@@landonnorris3602, agreed. But the thing I've noticed about pre-tribbers is how angry they become when you state you don't agree with their timing of Jesus's return. I've been told I'm a fake Christian, that I'm not saved, that the Holy Spirit doesn't abide in me, that even martyrdom won't make me righteous in God's eyes and that I'm sinning by attempting to rob them of their blessed hope. None of that is true but the vehemence of their defense causes me to wonder if they harbor doubts or just aren't willing to suffer as Christians have suffered since Jesus was crucified. It's what Christ told us to expect.
Thanks for sharing!
Best synopsis on the second coming I have ever heard!
4:07 - Did you say eaten by sharks LOL!!!
Amein! Thank you! Finally someone who believes like I do. Everyone around me is pre. They are convinced. You're Lutheran? I agree with so much of what you teach. I might become Lutheran!😃
Im with you, I thought I was the only one who didnt see a pre trib rapture, I did a bible study just me and God and I'm 100% certain there not a pre trib rapture, God bless
@@MezztovenShort4DannY so who are the redeemed in Revelation 5 from every tribe tongue people and nation? What about John 14:1-3, Matthew 25:1-13, Revelation 3:10, Isaiah 26:19-21, Zephaniah 2:1-3? Do you not believe the promises of Jesus? There are many other scriptures that prove the rapture will happen before the tribulation period described in Revelation.
Risen Yeshua for a long time I did believe in a pre trib rapture until I started to study, the pre trib doctrine didnt look like it made any scripture sense. When I get back from my jog I'm going to show you something I found when interpreting from Greek to English and let you judge
@@MezztovenShort4DannY great, I love the Hebrew n Greek and always look at original definitions in my studies.
Risen Yeshua awesome give me a few, ill forward that info to you so can judge for yourself, God bleas
Your scripture equations are on point!
It is a "secret" before the rapture happens...for example, a surprise birthday party is a secret, until everyone jumps out and shouts "Happy Birthday".
Partial Peterism makes the most sense to me, but thank God we still have the same Gospel! Non-essential tenants of theology will be found out sooner or later. As long as we have the hope of Jesus Christ we are all brethren.
This is great
You have amazing cinematography! Very nice!!!
Thanks for teaching what is in accordance with the truth.
God bless you.
Did he? Scripture tells us in one event Christ comes to get His saints, in the other Christ returns with His saints. One event Christ tells us no one knows when He is coming, in the other it tells us exactly when He is coming. In one event Christ meets us in the air, in the other Christ touches down on earth. That is scripture
@@sammygomes7381 Let the maker of this video know then .
Be blessed in the name of Jesus Christ.
@@jamesmcallister9645 Good idea
One resurrection at the last trumpet/Day of The Lord after the tribulations dead in Christ rise first, then those who are blessed to be alive during those times to join Jesus in the air to escape his wrath upon all creation that scripture of Matthew preceding what you shared it states that the eagles/vultures will be gathered which means the one left on earth will be dead.
Only one caught up. There’s no secret coming.
Great teaching, brother! Scripture interprets scripture!
@mal'ak emeth Wow, thanks man--you really straightened me out with your church fathers quotes. I'll never be misled by those whacky LCMS pastors again.
@mal'ak emeth Oh no! Whatever will I do! I'm so glad for your 8,000 word RUclips comment to save my soul!
(Cheers, buddy)
@mal'ak emeth Dude take a chill pill... besides, we're not even "post Tribbers"--we're amillenialists for crying out loud. You should focus on converting someone you actually know and who will listen to your tirades for more than 1 minute. Good day.
@mal'ak emeth So you appear to think that eschatology is a BIG deal. Can people disagree with you and still be Christians? I'm wondering what you think about the Nicene Creed--all it commits us to is the second coming of Christ. Cheers, baby!
except scripture didn't interpret scripture, he interpreted scripture. Scripture tells us in one event Christ comes to get His saints, in the other Christ returns with His saints. One event Christ tells us no one knows when He is coming, in the other it tells us exactly when He is coming. In one event Christ meets us in the air, in the other Christ touches down on earth. That is scripture
This is exactly what i believe! God Bless 🙏🙌
It is amazing how clear it is, when you just let the Scriptures work together and show you what’s up on any subject.
It is even more clear when one knows the difference between the events of the rapture and 2nd coming which the scriptures, working together show us.
@@sammygomes7381 It is quite clear that the Scriptures, especially in 1 and 2 Thes, speak of the Rapture and the Second Coming in the context of the same subject, and the same event.
If you see a difference in the two, it's not coming from a straight reading of the texts.
@@sketchbook1 Actually my friend they speak of two very different events. It is very much coming from the reading of the text.
How can the rapture be invented when it happened 3 times, Enoch Genesis 5 verse 24,Elijah 2 Kings 2 verses 11-12 and Jesus Acts chapter 1.The word rapture is in the Latin Vulgate Version of the Bible,so it's not made up.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the DEAD IN CHRIST shall rise first:
1Th 4:17 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.
NOTICE (the dead in Christ) and (WE) the believers it won’t be a public event, it’s only for the believers the body of Christ.
Remember when God spoke to Moses in the Mountain? Listen to what he heard
Exo 19:19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.
what did the people heard?
Exo 20:18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
Exo 20:19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
I believe that’s what the world will hear in the rapture thunder and lightning, but we the believers will hear he’s voice ☺️
How in the world is Jesus Christ coming in the clouds to raise the dead and people rising up not public? Pretty sure both the clouds and bodies are visible and public.
The verses you're quoting were concerned with judgement. All fulfilled in 70 AD at the judgement of apostate Jerusalem. The "changing" or resurrection was covenantal language and symbolises the changing of the covenant, out of the Old and into the New Covenant, which was fulfilled in 70 AD with the passing away of the Old Covenant age and the birth of the New Covenant age of the church. The New Testament was written to a 1st century audience.
@@70AD-user45 Read the Bible as it reads - ie literally, unless you have a good reason to read it otherwise. You're just inventing meanings which are not justified by the text.
@@pagophilus
Reading the Bible literally is not the correct way of reading it since it contains what's called Hebraic apocalyptic symbolic language. With Matthew 26:64, do you seriously believe Jesus is coming floating on a physical cloud in the sky? Or how about John 6 which speaks of "eating the flesh" of Jesus, although Roman Catholicism does take this literally in the Eucharist. There's symbolic language used throughout the Scriptures.
@@70AD-user45 Read symbolically what is intended to be understood symbolically. Read literally that which is literal. Jesus and others made it very clear that Jesus will return to the earth to take the faithful (dead and alive) with him. I don't know how you make that symbolic but you can invent any potential meaning you want. Except that you've missed the boat.
appreciate your note cards....I am "old school!" I appreciate your truthful teaching more...think about the Last Trumpet too....Last Trumpet is clearly seen in Revelation after all the judgments via the seals, bowls and trumpets ...glory to God
Going full on vlog! Loving it.
Amen, Pastor! The “Pre-Tribulation Rapture” has no substance. ✝️
Notice the Christians are not mentioned from Revelation chapters 6-18 and in chapter 19 the Christians are in heaven with Jesus then they talk about the first resurrection in chapter 20 which is the dead in Christ,how can the resurrection happen in chapter 20 when we are in heaven in chapter 19.Revelation is not in chronological order.Look at Revelation 12 verses 1,2,3 which happened last September 23rd.Tribulation is for the Jews not the Christians look at 1 Thessalonians 1 verse 10 Jesus saves us from the coming of Gods wrath.
@Zell dincht Look at Revelation 19 verse 7 we are in heaven celebrating the wedding and in 14 Jesus comes down, the armies of heaven.The Laodecians are the materialistic Christians and the Over comers and bride are the spiritual Christians.Look at the parable of the 10 virgins,5 were ready they were spiritual they had the oil in their lamps oil being lessons of the holy spirit.The worldly depended on the world they didn't enter into the wedding they didn't have the oil so their could be Christians on earth after the rapture.Michael and his angels fought the dragon,the dragon and his angels fought back they were not strong enough and lost their place in heaven.Think about this Satan's wrath is Gods wrath Satan can't do anything without Gods permission.
I’ve had a couple of rapture visions, a date that means ‘lofty’ , heard God say ‘be prepared Jesus is coming’ and heard one tick (one second) of a huge clock. Jesus will be coming to rapture His church before the tribulation. Be prepared Jesus is coming. 1Thessalonians 4: 13-18
There's not going to be a Rapture that is nothing but a false doctrine. All Saints will be beheaded by the Antichrist.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Mark 13:27
“And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.”
I once believed in the RAPTURE but by the grace of God the Word taught me better, since then God has blessed me to become a Lutheran. Praise Him.
Thanks Pastor, God's peace be with you
Ditto!
@CATHOLIC for EVER I like scripture, and I don't think he taught anything contrary to it. Just throwing my opinion here.
1 Thess 4 and 2 Thess 2
In 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18 a CLEAR SEQUENCE
1/ The COMING of Jesus
2/ The TRUMPET of God
3/ The RESURRECTION
and THEN
4/ The Harpazo where we are ALL seized and MOVED TOGETHER to MEET JESUS!!!!
The TRUTH is THIS!
BEFORE the Harpazo can HAPPEN the COMING of Jesus Christ and the RESURRECTION must happen FIRST!!!!
Paul Declares a CLEAR SEQUENCE and a CLEAR DISTINCTION on the COMING, the RESURRECTION and then the HARPAZO!
Paul Also CLEARLY declares in 2 Thess 2 what MUST take place BEFORE the COMING of Jesus Christ and BEFORE we are GATHERED TOGETHER to Meet Jesus .
Paul said this Sequence:
1/ The Apostasy
2/ The Revealing of the Son of Perdition
3/ The COMING of Christ
4/ Our GATHERING together to Meet Jesus
5/ The Destruction of the Son of Perdition!
That is the TRUTH!!!
When you PUT the Truth of what Paul says TOGETHER it is like this!
1/ The Apostasy
2/ The Revealing of the Son of Perdition
3/ The COMING of Jesus
4/ The TRUMPET of God
5/ The RESURRECTION
and THEN
6/ The Harpazo where we are ALL seized and MOVED TOGETHER to MEET JESUS, yes that is OUR GATHERING Together to meet Jesus!
5/ The Destruction of the Son of Perdition!
That is the TRUTH!
We MUST exalt what Gods WORD says!
What Paul TEACHES is in Harmony with what Jesus TAUGHT!!!
Jesus said this to YOU and I!
Blessed and Holy are we if we Partake in the First Resurrection!!!
If you’re not waiting for the rapture you’re not gonna go.
@@sandyd3205 You can't GO in a fictitious event; nobody will be raptured out of this world because it's all fantasy. Every Christian will meet Jesus on the Last Day/Resurrection Day to ever be with the Lord. The unconverted will be damned to the Lake of Fire and Brimstone and the converted will enter into the eternal joy of the Lord on Judgement Day, the Last Day, Resurrection Day, the Day of dividing the Sheep from the Goats.
What about the 10 virgins 5 are ready and go into the wedding feast and 5are left to bang on the door. The wedding feast of Christ to the church must take place in heaven. He then returns with a shout and the trumpet blast to begin his millennial reign.
Good point.
Margaret Corrigan notice when you read the parable of the 10 Virgins, the Bridegroom comes to the site of the wedding, where the virgins already were. He didn’t come and take the 5 off to some other site. The wedding feast takes place here on earth. Don’t be afraid to abandon the pre-trib rapture belief. I was afraid to at one time, but now I am confident that the scripture does NOT affirm a pre-trib rapture at all.
@@minimations8697- But the parable draws on Jewish wedding procedure. No Jewish wedding has the bridegroom arriving in the clouds.
Notice the 5 wise virgins. Not 1.. Hence 5 virgins signifies the Bride of Christ, the Church.
Also, it draws on, "no man knows the day or hour", except the Father. The similarity is that the Father tells the bridegroom, go Son, go get your bride.
@@minimations8697 re: but now I am confident that the scripture does NOT affirm a pre-trib rapture at all.
If this is true, you have to explain what Paul was teaching about in 1 Thess 4:17, specifically "caught up" to meet the Lord in the clouds.
It's still up in the air (pun intended).
Ben Str please understand, I affirm that Christ is coming back, and we will be “caught up” to meet Him in the air. What I am saying, though, is there is no “PRE-Trib” rapture. The dispensational model of a secret, catching away, followed by a 7 year tribulation period is not biblical. In 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Paul is addressing the dead in Christ and their place when Christ comes back. The dead will not miss it, but in fact, will rise first when Christ comes back.
There is a “rapture,” there is not a “Pre-trib rapture,” since there is no 7-year tribulation.
Thank God for those who don't fall for the pre-trib rapture. It seems like everyone around me has fallen for this stuff. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it.
As I'm watching this, and reading through comments this verse stuck out to me.
Mark: 13:32
But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
Why go back and forth on the pre tribulation or after when clearly it states we will not know. But instead of worrying also focus on this verse as well.
Mathew 24:44
Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect
A majority to my life I was taught to believe in what many of us believe in the rapture. I have prayed for wisdom and I have prayed to be taken from deception. And these questions kept sprouting within that is never says what everyone has told me. I read relations and it never said what we think.
Another verse below
Timothy 4:3-4
For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths
And there is a verse also that I can't seem to find right now but it's says many many Christians will be decieved as a whole.
Read your Bible, learn the word. Memorize the word. Ask God to give you wisdom and rebuke deception.
AMEN!!! That’s right!!!!
I still believe in a pretrib rapture and I’m going up!
Sorry, you're not going to fly, fly away.
Steven Askew -You won’t, I will.
@@frangordon777 don’t be so sure Fran
There is evidence to support both pre and post...don’t be that person so hung up on pre-trib that you let the Antichrist deceive you while you deny it can possibly be him
Hope for pre..but prepare for post
There is no pre-trib rapture. I used to believe in this false idea as well for many years but finally came to finally understand that part of scripture and revelation. There is a rapture that occurs but it's not pre- trib or Post- trib or mid- trib, it's right before God has His angels pour out the seven bowls of God's wrath and the seven plagues. Because we have NOT been saved from the wrath of the anti-christ nor the wrath of man.. but from the wrath of God.
Not all of the tribulation in revelation is the wrath of God. Christians will die, be imprisoned and much more for their testimony and faith in Jesus Christ. Also if the pre- trib rapture was true there are many counties that persecute Christians, what do you think is going on in their minds? Do you suppose they are thinking they missed the pre- trib rapture and are not worthy of the Lord but subject to His wrath?? No because they understand the Scriptures.
When the pretrib rapture happens, it will not be a secret that tens of millions of people have disappeared, which will cause all sorts of destruction. Yes the rapture is the doctrine of comfort, that is why the rapture will happen before the tribulation, because if it didn’t, it wouldn’t be comforting to go through the tribulation. God will not allow the Church to go through God’s divine wrath, which is what the tribulation is. The trib is only for the Nation if Israel and punishment to the wicked. Jesus will come in the clouds with the souls of those who have died in Christ to receive their glorified bodies, while those who are alive and remain are also instantly transformed, meeting Jesus and the others who died in Jesus who were in heaven, in the cloud. Then shall we be in heaven with the Lord. Amen!
The problem is you don’t define the words in your Bible and you are deceived with religion God‘s elect have exited religion and define their words in the Bible! Everything is opposite of what your carnal mind thinks you have to deny yourself and come to God as a child! You have to figure out predestination daily cross Christmas is pagan God does not love everybody Jesus died on the cross for his elect and his elect alone and blood baptism not H2O! Through much tribulation you shall enter into the kingdom of God! People like you have listen to too many false teachers who twist the word of God their own liking! The Bible is simple and the words are easy to define in old testament Hebrew and New Testament Greek! The pre-trip rapture came out of the same era as Mormonism if you don’t get it then you might as well be a Mormon because you do not have eyes to see your ears to hear and a heart that has been hardened by God!
@@artifacthunter1472 you are wrong, the OT also shows scriptures concerning the resurrection such as Isaiah 26:19-21 and Zephaniah 2:1-3. Revelation 4-5 show the rapture has taken place before the seals are opened. The Redeemed are represented by the 24 elders which are associated to priesthood. They are redeemed out of Every tribe tongue people and nation. The pre trib rapture/resurrection did not originate recently, it's always been in the scriptures backed by many, many scriptures. Look at Revelation 5:10 (KJV) And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
Who do you suppose these are?
1 Peter 2:9 (KJV) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Yes, this is the church. The called out one's.
Ephesians 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Just like the 24 elders sitting in Revelation 4.
2 Timothy 4:8 (KJV) Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
Again, like the 24 elders wearing crowns.
Ephesians 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Again, like the 24 elders.
Luke 21:36 (KJV) Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Revelation 3:10 (KJV) Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
This is just a small example, there's way to much evidence to list in a comment.
@@artifacthunter1472 let me guess, you believe the church has to be purified by going through the tribulation. Realize that believers have had tribulations from the start of the church. There is a difference between the tribulations that all believers go through and the tribulation period of His wrath and judgement. Let me be clear about this one point. If the blood of Christ is not enough to purify us, no amount of tribulation will help. All the warnings to WATCH are not warnings to watch for the antichrist, they are warnings to WATCH for our Jesus, why? Because He is coming for His own, to take us to the place He prepared John 14:1-3. The gathering, The bridegroom coming for His bride.

@@davidwhite6032 and keep reading up to verse 13. There are many more verses that say in the Bible that all men die.

@@teachmetruth3539 and your point your very vague in your words. What are you trying to say
When any preacher starts by telling you the rapture idea started in the 1800{s has been spoon fed a theology by a church or previous Bible teacher and they are not qualified to teach on the rapture. They are repeating a line and have not studied it out themselves. Jesus started the ball rolling Himself by a simple sentence "Before these things BEGIN, look UP your redemption draws near". Start by pondering this verse and letting the Holy Ghost expand it in your mind. Don't allow yourself to be misled by people either dismissing the rapture or disagreeing with Jesus that it is "when these things begin". Not after these things have started, or when they are done, but when they BEGIN.
PeterGreg, thank you for watching, and for your thoughtful comments. If you don't mind, could you point me to the teaching of the rapture in any of the church fathers, reformers, or theologians? Thanks so much.
Very well said Bryan.
God be praised!
Awesome explanation
What a great way to simply show the scriptures in context of what was going on then. Thank you. You hit it with the reason for the teaching of comfort. Also Mathew 24 is about Jesus pronouncing judgment on Jerusalem that they would see within a generation as they did see it come by the Romans who were the instrument of God's judgement from the throne....as Daniel had seen one like a man coming on the clouds....exactly as Jesus said He would 'come on clouds'. Pure judgement language of the O.T. prophets such as Isaiah as God pronounced judgement on Egypt. The lies have been taught too much and popularized in Christian churches and it deceives many. So sick of the false teachers who know they are lying.
The rapture and 2nd coming are two different events. Scripture tells us in one event Christ comes to get His saints, in the other Christ returns with His saints. One event Christ tells us no one knows when He is coming, in the other it tells us exactly when He is coming. In one event Christ meets us in the air, in the other Christ touches down on earth. That is scripture
@@sammygomes7381 no scripture does not tell us that. But yes, the rapture and His next appearing are absolutely two different things. The rapture is a made up story that the Bible does NOT teach in any way. Our modern day prophecy pundits use a couple false premises along with scripture out of context to press down atop scripture and pull up and out what scripture fits their ideas since the dispensationalists like John Nelson Darby early 19th century. The Church as a whole for 15 centuries prior did not teach this false claim of the rapture. In fact if you start to untie the knots of lies and see scripture in its context you'll see theyve been either misinformed or flat out lying to the masses-that is the false teachers and all. The oft cited Pauline letter that reveals a mystery is a comforting from Paul to His early Church living among cults that would hunt them down and kill them for following Christ. So Paul tells them they will not all sleep-which is a euphemism for remain in death...but then they will be with God which is a constant theme...not only that but also that when Christ does appear again the dead will be raised and those found in Christ will be given a new body and this is the 'last day' as those who knew and loved Lazarus knew of the last day . you can find that in scripture too.
@@sammygomes7381 here is Martha and Jesus talking Lazarus-John 11:23,24 - Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
@@deerfeeder2076Jesus was correct. I am not sure I see your point in what you have written.
@@sammygomes7381 the point is there is no rapture..as in what the left behind or other authors or church leaders teach..as in He comes..we go away and then come back again..yada yada ...is that what you mean by rapture or do you mean as in the last day?

Last trumpet doesn't sound very pre-tribulation to me.
7:00 There were actually 3 different groups: Those that perished in the flood, Those preserved through the flood, and Those removed prior to the flood. Enoch wasn't removed Mid-Flood or Post-Flood. He was removed Pre-Flood.
I had one of those moments while driving as well! 🤣🤣🤣
what do you think about what the bible says about the holy sabbath?
Hebrews 4 teaches that the word of God is our Sabbath rest. The Lutheran Catechism summarizes this truth:
_What is the 3rd Commandment?_
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
_What does this mean?_
We should fear and love God so that we do not despise preaching and His word, but hold it sacred and gladly hear and learn it.
(The Lord's Prayer transforms this law into Gospel.)
Hallowed be thy name.
_How is God's name kept holy?_
God's name is kept holy when the word of God is taught in its truth and purity, and we as the children of God also lead holy lives according to it. *Help us to do this, dear Father in heaven!* But anyone who teaches or lives contrary to God's word profanes the name of God among us. *Protect us from this, Heavenly Father!*
Saturday sabbath *Is **_Only_** a “shadow” Of The **_Reality,_*
So, “rest” *Eternally In The REAL Sabbath, The LORD JESUS CHRIST!*

*When Finished, Then we "Leave In God's GREAT GRACE Departure,” to go HOME!*
*{Which God Gave To HIS **_Chosen_** GRACE apostle, Paul! (Romans - Philemon KJB!)}*

*Rightly Divided (2 Timothy 2 : 15 KJB!) From **_"Things That DIFFER!":_*
-
*_Only_** THEN "Begins" God's JUDGMENT/Wrath* shown to John In Revelation!
And *Please Be Very RICHLY Blessed In God's Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided!*

to be continued in *”Preparation For JUDGMENT!...”*

BTW when the video cut to the cards I thought an ad had started and almost stopped paying attention. I love your teachings and I love your laugh. Can't decide if you look like Richard Gere or Clutch Cargo. :)

I don’t know about you, but from where I have it paused..he looks like Zorro’s Antonio
Rapture at the last trumpet. Does that mean that Christians will be here for all the other trumpets and how does one comfort those during the death and destruction if they are not prepared for such evil.
How does one stop those who keep waiting for the rapture from falling prey to the Antichrist because they don’t believe he can come until after the rapture.
