Paul says that when the fullness of the Gentiles comes in the age of Grace ends.

It is an event for the Bride of Christ, people who are saved and Holy Spirit filled. All the dead who were saved, their spirits are with Christ. They get new bodies and go up first. Those alive and remaining are then taken and their bodies are transformed into perfected bodies in the twinkling of an eye.

The 7 year Trib is not for the Body of Christ. It is for the J--s, to bring them to the knowledge that Jesus is their messiah.

The devil hates this plain teaching and thus used the RCC to spirtualize all of it. The early church fathers taught it, is is an obvious teaching. This is why there is so much mocking and scoffing, it is the Blessed Hope of the Body of Christ and the devil inspires demonically so that people attack it.

The people trying to date it do a disservice even though most who do that mean well. But the time is based on an event, not a festival or numerical equation.

Keep spreading the gospel and keep praying for those who persecute you. Follow Christ. He will take the bride when it happens, don't be anxious.

Maranatha!
