[quote:JUBILEE2019RAPTURE:MV80MTYyOTgwXzc1NzExNzc3XzdDMjhDM0U4] Martha said to the Lord that her brother Lazarus would "...rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” [John 11:24] Martha was referring to her brother rising again, in a glorified body, on the last day of this age. The last day of this age is the great day [day 21/22 month 7] of the feast of tabernacles. Hence we read: "On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying..." [John 7:37] The day will mark the end of this age. For we read: You shall keep the Feast...of Ingathering at THE END OF THE YEAR, when you have gathered in the fruit of your labors from the field. [Exod.23:15,16] "...hold fast what you have till I come. And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until THE END..." [Rev.2:25, 26] "The end" being the end of the year marked by the last day of the feast of tabernacles! This will be on the 20th/21st of October 2019. "Jesus said to...[Martha], “I am the resurrection and the [everlasting] life [that produces it]. He who believes in Me, though he may die [before the end of the age], he shall live [again on the last day in a glorified body]. And whoever lives [that is, whoever is still physically alive on the last day] and believes in Me shall never die [because their bodies will be changed from mortality to immortality]. Do you believe this?” She said to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”[John 11:25 - 27][words in bracket are all mine] From Martha's response to the Lord's question we know she has everlasting life and will therefore resurrect in a glorified body when the Lord comes for us in the Rapture, on the last day, which is the great day of the feast of tabernacles! "...on the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the fruit of the land, you shall keep the feast of the Lord for seven days..." [Lev.23:39] The last day for us to gather in fruits of righteousness, according to the Hebrew Calendar, was on the 14th of October 2019. In Nehemiah we read: And they found written in the Law, which the Lord had commanded by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths during the feast of the seventh month, and that they should announce and proclaim in all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the mountain, and bring olive branches, branches of oil trees, myrtle branches, palm branches, and branches of leafy trees, to make booths, as it is written.” Then the people went out and brought them and made themselves booths, each one on the roof of his house, or in their courtyards or the courts of the house of God, and in the open square of the Water Gate and in the open square of the Gate of Ephraim. So the whole assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and sat under the booths; for since the days of Joshua the son of Nun until that day the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great gladness. Also day by day, from the first day until the last day, he read from the Book of the Law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day there was a sacred assembly, according to the prescribed manner." [Neh.8:14 -18] Because we have everlasting life we have the ability to worship the Lord Jesus Christ as the One True God of heaven and earth. As a consequence we're able to receive from Him, through the Word, the truths we need to produce His works in our lives. Worshiping the Lord is represented by the mountain. All the branches are represented as the truths we receive from the Lord through His Word. The booths represent the work of the Lord that the truths of the Word produce in our lives. This is what the Lord is looking for in us when He comes in the Rapture. Hence we read: "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in THE WORK OF THE LORD, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. " [1 Cor.15:58] And also why the Lord said to us that we should: "...hold fast what you have till I come. And he who overcomes, and KEEPS MY WORKS UNTIL THE END, to him I will give power over the nations..." [Rev. 2:25, 26] See you at the Wedding Banquet! [/quote]

Many people have fallen for the delusion that if they miss the Rapture
then it's no big deal because they will get the chance to become a Tribulation Saint.
Well it is a big deal because if you have knowingly rejected the call to get right with the Lord while you are still blessed with a little time, then what gives you the right to think that the Lord will give you a second chance?
It's my hope that He will be merciful unto you, but I must stress to you that you are not guaranteed a 2nd chance. All hell will break loose immediately afterwards and you could quite easily lose your life in an instant, perhaps from a nuclear bomb, or from any number of other causes. Yes I know that it's a big leap of faith for many of you. In my case the Lord appeared to me when I was not a believer and since then I have had so many instances of the Lord appearing in my life that I lost count of them a long time ago. So if perhaps your thinking along the lines of "that's easy for you to say," your right. It's easy for me to say because I know that it's true. But what's not so easy for me, is the feeling that a lot of the time I seem to be banging my head against a brick wall because of the lack of interest that so many people have in their eternal salvation.
The important point that I want to make is
that if you will seek the Lord with all your heart as best as lies within you then He will be quick to hear you.
Do it now while you are still blessed with a little time because earth shaking events are nearly upon us.
