The return of Christ (I)

" What happened to the days of Noe, so The same day the Son of man.
People ate, drank, they married ... until the day Noah entered the ark
the flood came and destroyed them all
. "Luke 17:26-27

" For the Lord himself, at a given signal, the voice of the archangel and sound the trumpet of God shall descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we which are alive and remain shall we 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. "1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

It is often said that history is an eternal. And yet, the word spoken above shows indeed a significant change: There was never such a thing before!

" Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. The trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. Because it requires that this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
"1 Corinthians 15:51-54

The selectivity is highlighted in all the texts related to the kidnapping.

" It will be the day when the Son of Man will appear. On that day, as that will be on the roof, which will have its effects in the house, not come down to take them and the man who is in the field not turn back either. Remember Lot's wife. Whoever seeks to save his life shall lose it and whoever loses will find it. Luke 17:31-33

One might reasonably ask the question about the meaning of " ... the dead in Christ shall rise first. "These are the righteous (Luke 14:14).
This means that there are some who do not rise at that time. Obviously everyone will not be removed!

" Do not marvel at this: for the hour is coming when all who are in the graves shall hear his voice and come forth. Those who have done good will rise to live, but those who have done evil will rise to be condemned. "John 5:28-29

The Word of God clearly states that the righteous as the wicked shall rise (Daniel 12:2)! It should be noted that this resurrection will not take place at the same time. The destination of the righteous will be quite different from that of the wicked.

" The other did not return to life until the thousand years were finished ... happy and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them ... "Apocalisse. 20:5-6

The apostle Paul, who received many revelations during the course of his ministry, about the resurrection and the life to come exhorts us as follows.

" and I have hope toward God, as they themselves this expectation, there will be a resurrection of the just and the unjust . Acts 24:15 (See Acts 23:6)
" If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are the most unhappy of all men. "1 Corinthians 15:9

" And I saw thrones, and those who were seated was given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads and on their hand. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years . Apocalypse 20

The remainder of what will happen after the kingdom of a thousand years will be a further contribution. For questions related to this theme, we are prepared to respond by email or by post.
