Question: Do you believe the scriptures, God’s Holy Word, the Bible, are the final authority in all matters of doctrine?

Answer: Yes, of course I do.

Question: According to the scriptures below, is the rapture part of an event known as the Day of the Lord?

5 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. 1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thes 4:15-5:2

1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 2 Thes 2:1,2

Answer: Yes, I see that the rapture is part of the Day of the Lord.

Question: According to the scriptures below, what happens before the Day of the Lord begins?

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come: Acts 2:20

Answer: The moon is turned to blood before the Day of the Lord begins.

Question: According to the scriptures below, when is the moon turned to blood?

And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev 6:12

Answer: The moon is turned to blood after the Sixth Seal is opened.

Statement: I therefore conclude that according to scriptures, the rapture, as an event of the Day of the Lord, must occur after the moon is turned to blood, which occurs after the Sixth Seal is opened.

Question: According to the scriptures below, what do people see after the Sixth Seal is opened?

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Answer: They see the Lord.

Question: From your knowledge of scripture, during the end times when do people see the Lord?

Answer: At the rapture and at Armageddon.

Question: Which one of the two is the passage above referring to?

Answer: The Sixth Seal does not involve Armageddon, so it would have to be the rapture.

Question: If the scriptures clearly teach and confirm that the rapture will occur after the Sixth Seal is opened, then why don’t you believe it?

  1. What dates have been identified for the blood red moon eclipse and the solar eclipse? It would be good to publish those as a supplement to your article on The Blood Moon Rapture and the Day of the Lord.

    Thanks!

    1. Hello

      THX for your question. I believe that the moon being turned to blood at the Sixth Seal is not from a natural lunar ecclipse. The worldwide earthquake, stars falling, sun darkened, heaven departing as a scroll, men hiding in caves all point to a pole shift event. I do expect this event to align with the Feast of trumpets. I discuss all of this in more detail in the Coming Epiphany. BTW I believe there was a pole shift when Jesus was on the cross.

  2. Answer: The Scriptures only ever mention a second coming! Never any mention of a third coming. They cry out for the mountains to conceal them, to hide them from the tumultuous events of which they never assign to God but to "mother nature". For if they did attribute these cataclysmic events to God then perhaps they would repent. We know it is God's Judgement and the Wrath of Christ, and we too will be crying out to be hidden from His wrath because we fall into the freeman category or if you have bonded yourself to Christ then also the bondman category as well. Yes we go right through the great tribulation and will be blessed if we make it to the 1335th day to stand before Jesus at His return if we have been counted worthy.

    Jesus does not come thrice!

    1. You are correct that Jesus does not come to the earth thrice. The Second Coming is at Armageddon when He comes to the earth and sets up the 1000 year kingdom.

      At the rapture He does not come to the earth, only the clouds. And God tells us that all the world sees Him.

      Rev 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

      16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

      17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

  3. I never said to the Earth!!!! Jesus does not come thrice!!! Do not bend words fella. When our Savior appears He will appear in the clouds at His second coming!! Noah went through Judgement but was protected from it. As it was then so it will be now.

    1. I am not bending words. Jesus comes to the clouds at the rapture and comes to the earth at the Second Coming. That is what the Word of God teaches.

  4. William, God bless you brother. There Lord has shown me this exact scenario in the scriptures. One only needs to follow the words of Yeshua in Matt 24, Luke 21 and Mark 13 and compare it to Revelation 6. He even mention the figs falling off the branches which is a clue to the parable of the fig tree. Now that I can see it it is plain as day. Yet it is amazing how many folks see a different scenario. Be blessed my friend and Romans 1:11-12 to you.

    1. Thank you for your encouragement, I pray that many more would have their eyes opened to the truth of God's Word regarding the rapture.

  5. The church is raptured in chapter 4 of Revelation, so if the blood mooons take place in chapter 6, we are gone before the moon turns to blood.

    1. The rapture is part of the Day of the Lord. The moon is turned to blood--seal 6--before the Day of the Lord. Therefore the rapture is after the sixth seal.

  6. I believe that the great day of the Lord refers to Jesus' second coming. The church is raptured before the seals are opened. The seals are opened during the tribulation.

    1. The great Day of the Lord starts with the rapture after the sixth seal and continues through the Millennium

  7. Brethren,why do you spend time on dealing with the mysteries of God that presently do not help,but divide the Body of Christ.He will come and recognise His own.All else will God reveal in due time.He that believeth shall be saved.

    1. Because God's Word tells us about the blood moon and the rapture but most Christians are not seeing the truths of God's Word and will be caught unawares at the end times and I am trying to wake them up.

  8. Blood Moons, Pretrib Rapture, Etc.

    Heard of the coming blood moons? Is the pretrib rapture symbolized by anything in the heavens?
    Hal Lindsey, influenced by occultic astrology, asserts on p. 124 in "The Late Great Planet Earth" that the famous Sphinx in Egypt has the head of a "woman" - even though encyclopedias say it's the head of a "man"! Hal's plagiarism on that page of a 19th century British theologian is his acceptance of the occultic Virgo-to-Leo theory - a "Christian" zodiac arbitrarily starting with Virgo (Virgin Mary) and ending with Leo (Christ returning as "Lion," Rev. 5:5).
    Those who swallow this guesswork often see Ursa Minor (part of Cancer which precedes Leo) as a heavenly "symbol" of a pretrib rapture!
    Pretribs also insist on separating the "church" from "Israel" - but when you aren't looking (or thinking) they blithely "prove" pretrib by the Jewish feasts in Leviticus, the stages of a Hebrew wedding (Google "Pretrib Rapture: A Staged Event"), and the one "taken" and the other "left" in "Jewish" Matthew 24.
    Amazingly, Jewishness (and even anti-Jewishness) has been uncovered even in pretrib dispensationalism's 19th century foundation (Google "Roots of Warlike Christian Zionism")!
    The current "blood moons" craze (promoted by lunar persons including rock musician Scottie Clarke and John Hagee) is tied to - you guessed it - the same old Jewish feast days.
    Yes, there's something colored red in the future of the church, but I don't have moons in mind. What will really turn red will be the collective faces of many when it finally dawns on them that their any-moment fly-away was nothing more than an end time hoax!

    [Yo, William. The preceding was spied on the surprising web. Any reaction?]

    1. "What will really turn red will be the collective faces of many when it finally dawns on them that their any-moment fly-away was nothing more than an end time hoax!" That is the coming epiphany. Then after the seal 5 great tribulation the moon will turn to blood and the rapture will occur.
