Yes, Rapture
Roinestad
Jesus said: Let not your heart be troubled....
I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again, and receive you unto myself;
that where I am, there ye may be also.
(John 14:1-3)
During the Tribulation, Israel will be grafted back into the truth.
The church will once again be headed by Israel.
We who are Gentiles in Christ will have been removed
So that Israel may once again be restored to her calling.
We shall not be removed by unbelief or by tribulation.
As it is written: Salvation is come unto the Gentiles
For to provoke them (Israel) to jealousy. (Romans 11:11)
If we Gentiles were removed by unbelief or tribulation,
Israel would not be provoked to jealousy.
But because we Gentiles (and the remnant of Israel who now believe)
Are removed by Christ (the Rapture) before the tribulation and wrath,
Israel will indeed be provoked to jealousy
And will turn as a nation to Christ.
This will happen during the 7 years of the Tribulation,
First the 144,000 of Israel, and then others,
Until at the coming of Christ as Messiah, all Israel shall be saved.
And let none be deceived as though the judgments are already begun,
Before the day that Christ comes in fury,
The man of sin will sit in the temple.
Jesus said the believers in Israel should flee when they see it:
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation,
Spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (temple)...
Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains.
(Matthew 24:15)
But there are no preconditions (no this or that)
That must occur before Christ comes for his people (the Rapture).
Rather Jesus says: Be ye therefore ready also:
for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not.
(Luke 12:40)
The Good News is: Anyone who will trust in Christ alone
To save them, will not perish, but have eternal life.
Those who receive him now will be prepared to meet him
When he comes for his own.
