Re: THE 'RAPTURE' DEFINED --- SORT OF ???
Me again!!! ... :)
Bob...think 'wheat and tares' the parable....
The angels harvest the fields of mankind,they are taken to the barn aka Kingdom of God.The tares are burned in the fires (of affliction and tribulation.
Can you say judgement and the wrath of God?! Wrath is for the wicked of mankind,not those who seek the face of the Creator and walk with Him.
Before the translation/rapture/first resurrection there is a inner transmutation that takies place. It's kinda like what you hear about the Ascension, or Awakening experience with those who have the kundalini.
The inner change leads to the outer physical change.In rhema I got ...'transcient...transmutation'. you know how batty I drove my online friends to find the meaning of transmutation? LOL.
Many!
Transmutation means change of substance btw. Transcient means temporal.
In rhema and visions I get 'going home'. Had that phrase for the past year now. There are also many 'types of resurrection', some go home, some change and go to and fro, (kinda like the angels),some walk the earth in their new state (this is a glorified state like those great Buddah and wise Teachers from times ancient-These guys you need sunglass on cos they are really lit up!). All to benefit the earth 'at that time' which I keep getting is just before the return of the Messiah, Jesus.
I had many visions/dreams of this change, the differ angles of it. In rhema I got 'sequences or stages".
Also read chapters 7 and 14 of revelations, there are two groups of peoples, the redeemed, sealed of God. It is a literal seal btw but not seen on the flesh. Then there is the group called the final harvest. We are presently in the time of the Final Harvest ok?!
I too am a Seer and see these very things. I wrote them in my online journal which you can check out yourself. I speak for all peoples of earth, all religions, so it gets wild, so a forewarning is in order. You will learn many things there. ....

Just call it a gift to mankind,nothing more. It is the message that counts, never the messenger!
At present my task is to the children of this present age. These are special kids, MysticLipstick knows of what I am speaking! :) Keep up the good work there girl!
Just remember 'the thief in the nite' and 'no one knows the day' is a judaic idiom! We do know the day! *Hint*...RH! Check your hebrew calendar for tishri!
The dead in Christ... I got in vision and rhema...'and the dead will arise and do battle'. I saw the ancient native warrior arise from their graves. Scene changes and I see the eastern gate in Jerusalem and the dead are rising there too as well.
I have seen many peoples in the Kingdom, buddists, moslem,natives,christian, jews, etc.
God is no respector of persons, all who seek His face will find the path, and the pearl of great price. He is written in many ancient religions tho' by different names and titles.
There are also many different realms within the Kingdom of God, liken to many differ worlds...I've seen the 'great hunting grounds' of the natives, I've seen the pure Israel as well, the Jerusalem there has the great Temple of God in all its glory. (I go there lots btw in my inner journeys of Spirit!) I have also been thruout the cosmos, and to 'the Void',and realms that are unspeakable. These places I have travels thru the kundalini. I had a spontaneous awakening in the latter 1990's when I asked God for His Spirit to be ever present within this earthen vessel. The kundalini was one of the gifts I had received from that prayer alone!
Scripture only 'breaths of life' when one recieves the 'living word' from the Spirit of God. The 'living word' compliments and gives understanding to the written word. Kinda like flip sides of the same coin. Can't have one without the other, they both go hand in hand. Who knows the mind of God, other than the Spirit of God who knows all things, and is Truth.
The written word is for discernment of the source of spriitual insight and revelation. Both are a definite yes and Amen! One compliments the other!
To have just spirit and no written word, means no confirming by two or more witnesses. For even the Spirit of God will speak the words of scripture! I've seen this personally! heck when I read scripture, the Spirit of God changes words to aid in deeper clarity, and know that rhema explodes on many levels,like ripples on a pond, as deep upon deep. Your own spirit will cry out truth even, but so does the written word.
Now the written word will look like contradiction and a big question mark till revealed by the Spirit of God. That, my dear friend, is how scripture truly works!
Well --- I hope this helps. The visions on the online journal may help give you better understanding, getting an idea of what I saw during those dreams/visions, sometimes helps others.
Shalom and baruch atah HaShem Elohim.
