Matthew 24: 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

Many Pastors use this second verse to encourage parishioners to attend church so as to be ready to Rapture away for no man knows when the “Lord” share return.

Church membership has dwindled in the past 20 plus years, so pastors look for ways to keep their church members in the pews even if they have to twist the truth a little, or leaving out history.

Often times you have to know and tell about world history or at least world events in order to relay the events of the Bible. Pastors use doctrinal quarterlies that they teach from rather than do their own research on topics, as a result people are losing interest in learning the word of Yah (God). {They are hearing the same sermons year after year}. Older people continue going for fear of being lost or left behind, younger adults are turning to new-age teaching.

In Genesis, we read of Yah walking with Adam, Adam had a personal relationship with the Heavenly Father and all was well. We all know the rest of the story and because of Adam the world was given to Satan (the devil). Our Father was not ready to toss in the towel and move on. The Old Testament tells how our Father prophesied about a coming savior and worked with the Israelite people.

Moving ahead in time;

Matthew 1:23, Lo, the virgin [Mary] shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,' which is, being interpreted `With us [he is] God.

Matthew 1:25, and did not know her till she brought forth her son -- the first-born, and he was to be called “Yasha” (a Hebrew word that means “Savior”, Deliverer, Salvation), [known in the world as Jesus].

Here we see that our Heavenly Father has kept “HIS” word by creating a flesh “Body” for HIMSELF to dwell in while on the earth. Satan didn’t know what was happening, but knew he somehow needed to kill this person. Again we know this story of Christ dying on the cross. He was seen outside of the tomb and again 40 days later before ascending up into the cloud. {Note; this word cloud has been translated from the Greek as a cloud in the sky, but the Hebrew word is “shaw-meh” and means heaven, “spirit”, the realm of God}

This verse in John 14:19, Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. This verse of scripture is a little misleading and is not intended for all mankind. If we look at;

John 14:20 At that time you will know that I am in my Father, that you are in me, and that I am in you.

Joh 14:21 The person who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I, too, will love him and reveal manifest {show/reveal} myself to him.

1Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Eph 2:21 In union with him the whole building is joined together and rises into a holy sanctuary for the Father.

Eph 2:22 You, too, are being built in him, along with the others, into a place for Yah's Spirit to dwell.

Joh 14:22 Judas (not Iscariot) asked him, "Yasha, how is it that you are going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"

Joh 14:23 Yasha answered him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word. Then my Father will love him, and we will go to him and make our home within him.

Joh 14:24 The one who does not love me does not keep my words. The words that you're hearing me say are not mine, but come from the Father who sent me.

Joh 14:25 "I have told you this while I am still with you.

Joh 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you of everything that I have told you.

Joh 14:27 I am leaving you at peace. I am giving you my own peace. I am not giving it to you as the world gives. So don't let your hearts be troubled, and don't be afraid.

Joh 14:28 You have heard me tell you, 'I am going away, but I am coming back to you in “SPIRIT”.

Joh 14:29 I have told you this now, before I leave, so that when I do leave, you will believe.

As you can see Yasha has said HE will NOT return as man has said, there is no “Rapture”.

Mat 13:36 Then Yasha left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to him and asked, "Explain to us the parable about the weeds in the field."

Mat 13:37 He answered, "The person who sowed good seed is the Son of Man,

Mat 13:38 while the field is the world. The good seed [wheat] are those who belong to the kingdom, while the tares are those who belong to the evil one.

Mat 13:39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels.

Mat 13:40 Just as weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so it will be at end of the age.

Mat 13:41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom everything that causes others to sin and those who practice lawlessness

Mat 13:42 and they will throw them into a blazing furnace. In that place there will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Mat 13:43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in their Father's kingdom. Let the person who has ears listen!"

If the rapture did occur I wonder how many church members would remain in the pews? Wonder also if the pastor that twists the truth would still be in the pulpit?

Wonder how many on CC would still be playing ping-pong?

Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

There is only 2 resurrections, 1 of the saints, and after that 1 of the dead where they are judged.

Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Mat 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

Mat 24:50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
Mat 24:51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

1Co 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
1Co 15:24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

There is only 1 resurrection of the saints because when the resurrection happens it is the end.

The hypocrites will not make it and there is not another chance for them.

The people that rejected the truth cannot have a chance after that because the Gospel has been preached in all the world as a witness.

The resurrection is the point where all who made it are with Jesus and then it is the end.

Zec 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
Zec 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Zec 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

Zec 14:5 and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

When Jesus comes back to fight the world at the battle of Armageddon all the saints are with Him.

There is only 2 comings of Jesus 1 to get the saints , and 2 to come back with the saints and defeat the world.

There is no third coming for all the saints are with Jesus and the world has been defeated by Jesus.
 
Second coming is Jesus in the clouds with a loud trumpet, wicked cry for rocks to fall on them to hide them and Jesus takes the saved to heaven for a thousand years. Bible says during that time don't you know you will judge angels and we will review why wicked were not saved. Helps us see the justice and grace of the Lord.

The third coming is at the end of that period when the wicked are raised to face their punishment.

The third coming is at the end of that period when the wicked are raised to face their punishment.

Rev 20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

Rev 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

Rev 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Rev 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

Rev 20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

Rev 20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.

During the 1000 years the saints are on earth not in heaven.

For the wicked are among the saints and go against them which there is no wicked in heaven.

Also it says earth where they are at.

Zec 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.

Zec 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

Zec 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.

Zec 14:5 and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

Zec 14:9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

Isa 11:9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.

Zec 14:16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Jesus rules on earth for a thousand years over the heathen God spared at the battle of Armageddon and the saints are on earth.

Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Isa 65:17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

2Pe 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Rev 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Rev 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Jesus came to fulfill the law by being a sinless man, and the temple, and sacrifice, and fulfilling the roles of Israel, King, High Priest, Prophet, and whatever else He had to fulfill.

But He has not fulfilled the role of King and it must be done on earth.

That is why He will fulfill the role of King on earth for 1000 years.

And when the 1000 years is up then Jesus fulfilled the law and then this heaven and earth will pass away.

And there will be a new heaven and earth where sin has never been and sin will never be.

Which is the place Jesus went to prepare for the saints.

And the saints and angels will remember nothing prior to the New Jerusalem which it will be a fresh start.

Jesus will take His people to this current heaven.

The wrath of God will be poured upon the world.

Jesus will come back with the saints and defeat the world putting down sin.

Jesus will rule on earth for 1000 years over the heathen that God spared.

At the end of the 1000 years the heathen go against the saints and God defeats them.

The dead are raised and are judged.

Then the saints will go to the New Jerusalem.
 
Matthew 24: 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.
