    More thoughts on Rapture: Conclusion for now

    "Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." ( Psalm 37:4).

    In continuing on the theme of my last posting; having thoughts about spiritual matters can only be right if focused on the Prince of Peace. Until we start having unity with the Spirit we cannot comprehend or desire to see things come to pass that are His will and part of His plan. The living Word must transform our hearts to be receptive to these matters so we can pray in the Spirit.

    The Tribulation; therefore is executed with the victory already secure; but each judgment in tempo with increasing intensity; I could compare music such as the 1812 Overture as the best example. In a recent comment by someone tied into the Presidential race for a particular party (I will as usual leave out names) stated that; literally there is "no rest for the wicked" as to the lack of time for being able to make public appearances. There surely is no rest for the wicked; and you can be sure no matter how carefully they try to sweep everything under the rug all things will be revealed. Isaiah 26:21 assures us that the dead will someday no longer be hidden.

    God will surely remove His Bride; but in the meantime death and destruction march on. Every opportunity to spread the Good News must continue whenever opportunity presents itself. We have the assurance that He is with us even unto the end of the age. We don't know how long we have but seeing that many events that involve the end of the church age and the terrible times coming persecution could certainly worsen exponentially in the few years or months right before the Rapture. Again to review there is direct persecution and there is deception of all sorts of worldly things. There is a great calling as well to warn those who think they are in the faith to test themselves and that they must deny ungodliness and lifestyles which disqualify us to inherit the Kingdom.
