I Thess. 5:9 "For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ."

That is absolutely correct. God's Wrath comes upon Anti-Christ and his New World Order system after it has had it's 3 1/2 years given to A/C to continue. See: Daniel 7:25 "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."

If Daniel 7:25 is speaking about that last period of time of 3 1/2 years that A/C is given, then notice who has to be here in order for him to "Wear Out The Saints". If there has been a Rapture, then who are the Saints? We have to stop believing the Left Behind Series and start believing the Word of God that tells us, His Saints (who have not died yet but are living) are still on this earth and the A/C is doing all he can to wear them out and kill them.

This is a good time to point out, we, as believers, need to understand who are the Saints. They are ALL, whether Natural Israeli or Gentile, who have been rooted to the Lord Jesus Christ. They are His Body.

This is another false teaching put out that, there is a difference within the Church (ecclesia). Jesus came onto the Lost House of Israeli (not the Jews). Matthew 15:24 "But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

The Lost House of Israel is who traveled through-out the world because God allowed them to be over-run by the Assyrians as a result of their own going after strange gods. They were already out of Israel at the time Jesus paid the Redemption Price to save them and any Gentiles that accepted Him as their Saviour.

It may be a surprise to know but prior to then, Gentiles were not part of the Salvation Plan for the Chosen People.

Once they (The Lost Sheep of Israel) came to the saving knowledge of Jesus, through the apostles that Jesus sent out, they, in turn, became the missionaries who spread the Gospel. Any Gentile that came to that knowledge was "grafted" into the ecclesia/Body of Christ. That is understanding the Natural Olive and the Grafted-in Olive. They are strong together in the Root, Jesus Christ.

Natural Israel doesn't even know who they are at this time but God knows them all, along with the Gentiles that chose to believe. They make up the "Saints".

You see, there is no exclusive Gentile Church. There are the Jews of the Southern Kingdom who make up present day Judah, Benjamin territory who will have their blinders removed but they are not the Saints that the A/C is determined to wear out and kill, are they?

There is the scripture given of I Thess. 4:13-18 which confirms the timing of when the living would be caught up. They will follow right up after the Dead in Christ have been resurrected.

I Thess 4:13-18 'But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep In Jesus will God bring with him. 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. 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. Wherefore comfort one another with these words. "

The problem seems to lie in the fact that Christians have been taught that they are a separate Gentile Group and need to be out of here before God can deal with the Jews.

Once this so-called Gentile Church realizes that they may well be the Israelites which Jesus came to save, then they will know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, there is no rhyme or reason for them to be called Gentile nor be called out before God can let the rest of His plan follow through.

Those stubborn Jews who have still their blinders on will come around but in a much harder way, I expect. They will realize that Jesus Christ was their Messiah all along.

But the fact of the matter is that the Bible shows that the Saints will be persecuted by the A/C until such time as:

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 (KJV) "Behold, I shew 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 trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality."

All of these scriptures verify that the Lord will raise His Own unto Himself BEFORE He pours out His Wrath upon A/C, the False Prophet and the whole New World Order system they set up.

I believe there are many well meaning Believers that are so close to understanding all of this but the stumbling block of a separate "Gentile ecclesia" has been used to fool them into believing they have nothing to worry about because they will be caught up before.......

So, when does the scripture tell us that we will be caught up? First the Dead in Christ...right? And then, we which are alive.

And finally, it happens at the SEVENTH TRUMPET. Amen!
