SURELY THE BRIDEGROOM IS AT THE DOOR 1 of 6


Part 1 of 6
SURELY THE BRIDEGROOM IS AT THE DOOR
The rapture is not just safety for the true church but also judgment to the remaining world

PREPARE

1Cor 7:29 And I say this, brothers and sisters: The time is short. So then those who have wives should be as those who have none,30 those with tears like those not weeping, those who rejoice like those not rejoicing, those who buy like those without possessions, 31 those who use the world as though they were not using it to the full. For the present shape of this world is passing away.

Over and over and over  again all the Prophets of our LORD  TODAY are prophesying the same thing- the end of the dispensation of grace- THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH.  Many revelations of HELL, Jesus, God The Father, and Heaven have abounded in this last hour. Joel 2: 28 has been greatly fulfilled in the body of Christ.

Refer http://www.spiritlessons.com  and  http://end-times-prophecy.com among other websites that document the end time revelations of Christ

We are at the brink of fulfillment  of the parables of the ten brides (MATHEW 25), the King’s wedding feast for his  Son (MATHEW 22:1-14),  the nobleman [referring to Christ] who went to a distant land to receive for himself a kingdom  and left his servants talents saying: occupy till I come [Luke 19:12-27] and the householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard [Mathew 20:1-16]. In this endtime parables Jesus started the parables by saying:”The Kingdom of God is like ……………”. They are parables of the coming of the Kingdom of God.

MATHEW 25: 10 SAY ‘THE DOOR (to the wedding banquet) WAS SHUT’- The door of Grace will be shut. In Genesis 7 it  says that God shut the door to the ark when Noah (together a total of 8 people) and the animals had  gone in. Gen 7:16[KJV] And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in. Then judgment began (the floods).

 In the case of Sodom GOD saved Lot and his ‘household’, as soon as they left Sodom  God rained fire and brimstone on the city destroying it. These two events in the Old Testament were ‘raptures’ of a sort where GOD removed to safety HIS faithful before judgment. In both cases the ones removed to safety were a small minority. The rapture of the church has been prophesied to be the same. Not the entire church will be taken as we know it but only the true church faithful to Christ – hearers and doers of the WORD of God, the Virgins with a lamp full of oil- HOLY SPIRIT.   Read  ‘Marriage Supper of the Lamb’ a free e-book  by Susan Davis http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/162979 or just google the book

Matt 24:40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.41 Two [women shall be] grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.


JESUS COMPARED THE END TIMES WITH THE DAYS OF NOAH:

Matt 24:37 [NET]For just like the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.38 For in those days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark.39 And they knew nothing until the flood came and took them all away. It will be the same at the coming of the Son of Man.40 Then there will be two men in the field; one will be taken and one left. 41 There will be two women grinding grain with a mill; one will be taken and one left.
Luke 17:26 [KJV] And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
1 Peter 3:20  (1Pet 3:20) -
(3:20) after they were disobedient long ago when God patiently waited in the days of Noah as an ark was being constructed. In the ark a few, that is eight souls, were delivered through water.
2 Peter 2:5  (2Pet 2:5) -
(2:5) and if he did not spare the ancient world, but did protect Noah, a herald of righteousness, along with seven others, when God brought a flood on an ungodly world,

 JESUS COMPARED THE RAPTURE TO DAYS OF SODOM AND LOTS REMOVAL TO SAFETY
Luke 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. 31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. 32 Remember Lot's wife. 33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. 34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two [men] in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. 35 Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 36 Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the eagles be gathered together.


The fact that one shall be taken and another left shows that the Rapture Is not just snatching away to safety the True Church: It is JUDGEMENT- THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD  on world that has despised HIM and followed its own ways even as SODOM and the Generation of Noah’s Time had done.

What was the sin of Sodom? A great deception exists today : SELF

Ezek 16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
Does that sound like a society you know? Unemployment is growing even in the US (IDLENESS), in Africa it has gone over 50% in some countries. People serve ‘SELF’ which is just an alias for the ‘DEVIL’ for the bible is clear. Deut 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, [that] I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
The choice is always A or B, there is no C. But in the modern society we have introduced a C so that the choice is:
Serve GOD, SATAN or SELF. The last two are just one. A smart deception of the devil to get people to be on his side while thinking they are in an independent position. Jesus was clear- there are SHEEP and GOAT, Children of God and Children of the Enemy.  There is no middle ground, no sitting on the fence.  We are either fully with God or we are against him – which puts us with the enemy.  The only perfect will is GODS WILL.
Luke 11:23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.
Matt 12:30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Luke 9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against us is for us.

Below I have compiled scriptures to help in living in obedience to the word of GOD. This is not an exhaustive list- as a matter of fact it does not contain everything but it brings the truth of God to a hardened heart, to a deceived soul as the bible states:

Heb 4:12 For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

 These scriptures are meant to search your heart and reveal discern the thoughts and intent helping you prepare for the lords coming by  discerning yourself you that you can repent and straighten up your Christian walk with the word of God

Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
