Signs Pt 22 - Angels gathering us to meet our Lord in the air!


Mat 24:31  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.

Mar 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.

Luk 21:28  And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

*******

North, South, East, and West- the directions of the four winds.

Dan_11:4  And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven; and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled: for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others beside those.

Divided towards the four winds.  This came to pass. Alexander the Great's conqueror from Greece, died and his kingdom did not go to any of his bloodline but rather to four generals who divided that kingdom into four. 

Our Savior's elect will be gathered from the North, the South, the East, and the West, from all over the entire world. The angels will gather those blessed to be counted among God's elect. The angels will gather them and they will RISE from earth to heaven.

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.

Caught up together with Jesus in the clouds!
Meeting the Lord in the air, never to leave the Lord again!

Our Savior will not descend to earth when He comes for His people.  This is a mistake so many are making. People all over are waiting for a Messiah on earth to lead them to heaven.  People all over are waiting for a secret rapture and a subsequent period of probation for those who don't make it the first time.   These are LIES.  Lies perpetuated by the GREATEST DECIEVER EVER!  I can say that with the greatest conviction, the greatest confidence because I know what the Bible says and the Bible does NOT contradict itself!

How can I read in more than one place in the Bible that at Christ's second coming we will rise to meet Him in the air, that we will be gathered by angels and taken into the air to meet Him, and then turn around and believe that I will be rendered invisible and snatched away, that I will see Jesus returned walking upon the air calling us to Him? How can I believe this stuff?

The Bible says this-

1Co 15:49  And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
1Co 15:50  Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
1Co 15:51  Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52  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.
1Co 15:53  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
1Co 15:54  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.

Bear the image of the heavenly- an IMAGE of the heavenly.  That is NOT invisibility, invisibility has no image at all- it's unseen. We know our Savior has an image, He returned after His resurrection and Thomas touched Him.

Joh 20:24  But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
Joh 20:25  The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.
Joh 20:26  And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
Joh 20:27  Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
Joh 20:28  And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
Joh 20:29  Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

You do not SEE and you do not TOUCH an invisible person.

We will be changed- taking on the form of INCORRUPTION- no longer subject to decay and death, our flesh will be changed but not rendered invisible.  We will have an image.

So how can people take on these beliefs that are NOT Biblical?!

How can people believe that when they die they go straight to heaven?  What need would their be for the dead to rise when Christ comes if they are already with Him? It makes NO sense at all whatsoever. But people are going to cling to the lies, the deception because they don't want to believe the truth. They don't want to believe the truth because the truth is something very few will find and live!  Not my words, Jesus' words!

Mat_7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

So cling to what the majority believes and believe yourself saved while ignoring all the truth being given by GOD, and stay lost in your deception.

Or stop clinging to the lies! Stop holding fast to the deception!  Our LORD is returning! All by HIS grace and HIS mercy, through HIS righteousness, HIS Forgiveness, HIS amazing love we will be among those who are gathered by the angels and taken to meet HIM in the air!

Please LORD this is our desire, this is our need, this is our HOPE life with YOU in a world that makes sense, all in YOUR LOVE!
