"It is a remarkable fact that all the heresies which have arisen in the Christian Church have had a decided tendency to dishonor God and to flatter man."
Charles Spurgeon
Many within Christendom Dishonor God by denying the clear teaching in His Word on when the "Rapture" Occurs. They erroneously teach that they will be caught up in some sort of "Secret Rapture" BEFORE His 2nd Advent.
In doing so they Flatter themselves that, UNLIKE the disciples, the early Church adherents and Christ Himself--that they will not suffer persecution in the End Times....that they will somehow be secretly whisked away before it all happens.
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:
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.
Looking for that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ;
1 Thessalonians 4:16,17/Titus 2:13
