Has any one ever noticed what actually happens at the rapture?
For example we all know this passage is the rapture.
1 Corinthians 15
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
That is the rapture and everyone knows we will be changed but notice the next verse there is something else that happens.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, DEATH IS SWALLOWED up in VICTORY.
See there is one of the things that people kind of overlook. Not everyone does but do you know what actually happens when DEATH is SWALLOWED UP in VICTORY?
Isaiah 25
8 He will SWALLOW UP DEATH in VICTORY; and the Lord God will WIPE AWAY TEARS from off ALL FACES; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
There is what happens when death is swallowed up in victory God wipes away tears from ALL faces. Right?
I mean if there is still some dieing and crying that belongs to Jesus then could death be swallowed up?
In order for God to wipe away the tears of his people there will not be a chance of them being killed any longer.
Which is what happens at the rapture according to 1 Corinthians 15 because death is swallowed up.
Have you ever noticed what happens at the 5th seal?
Revelation 6
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they CRIED with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou NOT JUDGE and AVENGE our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that SHOULD BE KILLED as they were, should be fulfilled.
If the rapture happened before the 1st seal was DEATH SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY?
Was tears wiped away from ALL faces?
If yes then it was only a short victory because these SAINTS at the 5th seal are CRYING OUT LOUD for God to do something but are only told to rest until the others are KILLED.
Also i believe these 5th seal saints are the ELECT.
Luke 18
7 And shall not God AVENGE his own ELECT, which CRY day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he FIND FAITH on the earth?
As i previously pointed out in my other post i believe the 144,000 will mourn when they see him come and gather his ELECT.
And i think it will happen at the 6th seal.
But at the 5th seal there is much death and crying which leads me to believe that the rapture of 1 Corinthians 15 has NOT taking place yet and our change has NOT come yet. But instead the ELECT are wondering what is happening but will they keep FAITH? Since they are still here?
Then at the 6th seal as the sign appears in the sun, moon and stars there is a great multidtude standing in heaven that can not be numbered. And God will now wipe away their TEARS.
Revelation 7
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall WIPE AWAY ALL TEARS from their eyes.
Now the way i see it to line up perfectly is the rapture of 1 Corinthians 15 has happened at teh 6th seal and our change has NOW come and God will wipe away ALL tears from our eyes.
Then he opens the 7th seal which starts the first of seven trumpets.
What do you guys think does God only SWALLOW UP DEATH FOR 4 SEALS?
