If God so chooses, He can definitely send an angel to a Christian to communicate what needs to be communicated directly.
Peter had an angel visit him in prison and release him supernaturally. So there is really no need to be skeptical about such things. In Revelation John is given messages and instructions through an angel at different times. And throughout Scripture we read of angelic visitations.
At the same time we have to wonder if Gabriel actually visited Mohammad or Joseph Smith, since their teachings go against Bible doctrine. Sometimes evil angels will pretend to be angels of light, so we need to be on guard against deception. Whatever lines up with Scripture is from God and whatever does not is from Satan.
Since you claim that you have been given a specific date for a certain event by an angel, you should be skeptical, since date-setting at this time in history is not called for.
Hello again,
Below is basically what Roadkill wrote, which is what prompted me to respond to his post:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boy just remember that you asked for this! Lol
First of all the Second Coming of Jesus and the Rapture are two separate events. Jesus' second coming will come in the twinkling of an eye. The Rapture is not so.
The Rapture is a 3 day event. As the Sun passes over at 12 noon on parts of the Earth at those time zones these events will occur in full view of all mankind and undeniable.
1st Day
All the dead in Christ will burst from the graves transfigured and will ascend to heaven. This event will cause many to believe on Jesus Christ.
2nd Day
Everyone living 25 years and down who believe on Jesus Christ, will Transfigure in full view of mankind and ascend to Heaven. This includes those 25 year olds and on down who came to believe because of the previous day of the dead arising in Christ. The unborn children in their mothers wombs will also Transfigure and no children will be conceived to men for the duration of the Tribulation Period. Also all innocent minded humans will Transfigure too, in example, those like people with Dow's Syndrome and other afflictions of the mind. God will not allow any innocent persons to suffer through the Tribulation Period of his wrath.
3rd Day
All others 25 years and Older who believe on Jesus Christ.
This includes everyone who believed on Jesus because of the first 2 day's events of the Rapture even if they are 25 years and younger.
God's mercies towards mankind are Wonderful!
There it is, rip at it all you want. It does me no harm because I am anonymous and will remain the same. Would you like to know the year and the season? Would you like to know the exact day of the sign in the sky of Revelation chapter 12 which is the Mid Trib marker of the last 3 and 1\2 years of the Tribulation Period?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is nothing in scripture that would suggest that the gathering of the church takes place over a 3 day period by that by age groups! And as far as I can see, there the rest of the world is not going to see the gathering of the church, but will only be aware of it once it takes place.
He also states that the Lord's return to end the age (second coming) will take place in the "twinkling of an eye" but that the gathering doesn't. This is not in accordance with scripture, as I am sure that you will agree. The second coming cannot and will not take place in the twinkling of an eye. On the contrary, we are told that a multitude of signs will take place leading up to the Lord's return. And when He does return to the earth, it will be on the clouds of the sky and every eye will see him. So the inhabitants of the earth will have plenty of indicators marking the Lord's return. It is the gathering of the church which will take place in an "atomos" i.e. a time to short to divide, in the twinkling of an eye and not the second coming.
In addition, you have two people claiming to have received information from God, either through an angel or by God Himself, namely, DiscipleDave and Roadkill, and they are not in agreement with each other regarding what God told them! If they had truly received information from God, they should be in agreement on every detail.
The truth will be revealed come May!
