Week End Finisher
To continue a deeper look into whether we are Saved now while living or saved at the end, meaning after death, is an ongoing message that need further clarity. Many will say that some will not die because they will be caught up and therefore escape death as we no it.
While this is good bible teachings, it is somewhat misleading to those living at this time that somehow “they” or “we” will be part of the caught up scenario. This is a mistake made during Paul’s time also when he preached, 1 Thessalonians 4:
15. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Verse 17 say, “we which are alive and remain shall be caught up” indicating the thought that Jesus was coming back before his death and the rest with him. Come to think about it, when we say it, it also indicate we will be around too. But read on.
Maybe he should have said, “ saints that are alive at that time.” Writings could have been changed to mean the same thing with the same meaning for understanding just as our new bibles give clarity to the same.
Paul and other prophets had to know the circumstances ... continue ...
