Rapture 7

Perfected Earth

Words do not express the fullness of what is coming. We who are men have arrived at a cross road and it is based on two facts. One is that the rapture of the dead has been complete. They are now in Heaven and in Eden and in Earth. Now the fact they are on earth and we cannot see them isn't a condolence prize to us who are alive.

The scripture says that we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them who are in the air. So I believe the reason we are not there is because we are part of Sin or sin and that Earth which is there is the prize and the earth we are part of the failure.

So if we are part of the prize then why is there so much suffering and so much murder? Do we really want murderers in Heaven? Do we really want to be part of this world until they come knocking on our door? So lets say that God made earth and Earth. Small earth, where we are, is the pain, suffering, lonliness and hurt. It is where sin dwells and where people who have been born into sin live.

Above us, in the air, which is purified by holiness of God; dwells a righteous Earth.

Now that would make sense and it would explain our return to Earth and it would obey scripture and the injunction of scripture. So lets say that earth small is to be delivered into the lake of fire and all of its elements.

Now if there is a higher Earth then lets call it spirit and the spirit earth is made up of elements just like ours but it is purified by God. Now some people are bothered by the term spirit so lets called it a perfected Earth. One which is healed by God who is Spirit.

Now lets say that it is the home of those who were dead. And as the newly arrived they are coming home to Earth and they are not only surprised but they are shocked. For instead of newspaper headlines there are gardens and Paradise walks and people who meet their needs. There are things that are of healing and things that are of grace. There are even places you can shop and places you can live and places you can travel either by train or ship or even flight by air.

It is there that people are happy and they remember who they were and they remember what bad people were but none of them have any desire to be evil.

So there they can hear God speak clearly and He is the only one who can speak to them mind to mind. The rest speak but they have clear voices and pure minds and perfect bodies. They eat and they drink and they visit people and they go to worship and they are happy.

Now it sounds okay but what about God. Where is He?

Now if I said that God was on His way as we speak that means little if the Rapture took place for the dead. And they rose up to a perfected Earth leaving us poor saps behind. What happens now? Do we get left here?

The answer is no, maybe and yes. The no is to those who want to serve God above all else. The maybe is to those who don't know God and serve another god or another faith. The yes is to those who downright reject God and serve another god or hate the God of the Christ or the Messiah.

Now this refers to two people. One is Jesus and He is the Messiah of the Jews. He came to bring them life and so it is possible He could be one of the two witnesses. The Bible doesn't say who it is and Jesus did promise to return a second time.

The problem with that which most people would hate is that they would kill him again and no one wants that. They want him to be part of the festivities in Heaven and on Earth.

So lets say that God wanted to be one of the Witnesses as well. If He were who would help Him? Would you? I know I struggle with the thought of dying and yet I have struggled before. And I struggle still because my body does suffer. Yet if God were one of the two witnesses He does have the power to breathe fire out of His mouth. Personally and with another. The only issue would be the stoning. No one wants to go through the stoning. So who then would it be?

The answer to that is yet to come. There are those who are on earth who could be the witnesses yet they would have to be called forth by God.

The Rapture is not meant to be just of the Church of Jesus Christ even though they need to be of the faith of Christ. To say to people that don't go to church that they are of sin is not of God. I haven't been able to sit in church for years because of my many problems yet I am able to sit in my easy chair and write. And I am able to pray on my bed.

There are various things about the rapture which are yet to be revealed. For if there is a rapture of the dead and it has happened then when do we get to rise up to the Earth that is home to our families who have gone before?

To answer that requires hope and prayer and belief. For God does not forsake His children with false promises. He does not ridicule us with lies. He does not favor us with dreams that cannot come true. For God is coming and is steadfastly facing east waiting for the coming of the sun. Now you might wonder why God waits for the rising of the sun and the answer is He has chosen a specific date and a specific hour for the coming. There is no other place in all heaven or on earth whereby men will be brought and will be delivered then to the new home. It is Earth but it is delivered from sin. It is set free from Evil. It is proclaimed to be free and it will remain free for all time. Those who would wish to do evil will not be able to. They will find themselves powerless before the power of God. They will find themselves cast down to earth and to the sea of flames. For earth will become the home of sin and of evil. It will be the place they rise and fall. It will become the home of demon and of principality. It will be here that they will end their day. Time will encroach upon them and every spirit that denies Jesus Christ is Lord will be placed on the lowest earth. It is there Satan will be cast. It is there Sin will be placed but within bonds so tight not even he will find a way to loosen them. He will be placed in a wall and then in a bunker and then there will be a seal placed upon him. That is where he now is and he will remain there for all time.

Christians need to realize they are on the right path. They don't need to fear if they are failures. They only need to follow one path and that is Jesus. They need to know that sin is a possible spirit to overcome but it takes years of dedication to be delivered fully. They will understand once they get to Heaven how deadly sin truly was.

There is a second part to the rapture and that is the raising up those who are alive and that is us. So what happens next? We wait and we pray and we seek God for help. For every spirit on this earth desires us to remain. They desire us to take part in their lies. They desire us to remain so we can be part of a festival called Armageddon. We are not meant to remain for that. There will be enough men who will remain but there is a way out. And if they are 99% men who remain to fight each other that is their choice. Just don't be one of those Christians who hides in your bunker with your gun. Remember God wants to change you from mortality to immortality. So He has a meeting place called perfected Earth. It is finished and it is waiting for you. It requires you to pray and to seek God. It requires you to wait for God wants to move everyone of Faith in one day. And He wants us to see Christ move among the demon realm and destroy them in one day.

Don't fear people. God is coming back. Remember Jesus is the answer. Call on him today and he will deliver you from all your sin and unrighteousness.
