THE SEVEN YEARS
Tues. 5:30 will be the 2nd of the RAPTURE series of the end times at Kealia House Church.
Located at 85-4554 Mamalahoa Hwy. Captain Cook, HI 96704, ken@trinity-aloha.org P0T BLESSING.
Next Tuesday we will be considering the Miraculous balance of God as found in those 7 years. Opposites in play at the same time. The birth of the baby and the destruction of the placenta at the same time. So we will be looking at what happens in heaven first. Isa.28:14 (11-20) “Line upon Line”
INTRODUCTION: 7 YEAR (time line chapters,) REV. 6 & 12:
Actually there is a very precise time line concerning the Resurrection of the Dead and the Rapture running through the Holy Scriptures which starts at the Rapture. (You will probably have questions, so send them.)
First of all, it would seem an impossibility for the 1st Resurrection of the dead to be at any other time than just before the Great Tribulation. As the Holy Spirit who came at Pentecost will no longer be here during the Great Tribulation. 2 Thess. 2:3-10. AMP. And in the Rapture of those DEAD and ALIVE, the saved of Christ Jesus receive new eternal bodies will be filled with the Holy Spirit, 1 Cor.15:40-57. And Jesus brings HIS rewards with HIM to share for their works done for HIM when alive, 1 Cor.3:14. And as the “Rod of Iron” And then the Church also enjoy a great victory over lucifer and boot him and his minions out of the heavens all prior to Mid/Trib. Rev.12:11. (In Adam we let him in, In Christ Jesus we get to boot him out. Ezek. 28:18.) After this great victory the heavens are cleansed and then comes the great gathering of the Marriage Feast of the Lamb (The eternal union between Christ Jesus and HIS Church that HE died for. Rev.19:6-9 This will be a gathering of those who had faith in the Lamb of God for their salvation up to the Rapture. At the end of the 7 years, Jesus Christ gathers HIS Church/Bride/Body/Rod of Iron and heads for earth to destroy all of the great armies of the world gathered in Israel, seeking to prevent the promises of God from reaching Abraham. This is called Armageddon after the name of the valley in which it happens. It will not be much of a battle as Christ Jesus crushes all of the army’s gathered there with only the Word of HIS Mouth. Israel will then have a pile of steel right at their front door step for gardening in the Land promised to Abraham and his family, The Kingdom of Christ Jesus, The Prince of Peace on earth then for 1,000 years.
FAMILIES IN GOD’S KINGDOM: Acts 3:25, Gen.12:3, Gen.28:14
Those in the faith of Abraham under the old testament covenant are family/friends of the Bridegroom. John 3:28, “Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease. ” Those in Jesus under the New Testament (WILL) covenant, filled with the Holy Spirit are the (Bride/Church/Body of Christ/Rod of Iron.) The Prophet John, saw this clearly and states he is a friend of the Bridegroom. John was the last and greatest of the Old Testament Prophets so he would represent Israel. There May be other families prior to Noah and prior to Abraham & Moses are other families that are invited to join the party of the 3 1/2 years of the Marriage Feast of the Lamb. It would give all of us a chance to check out Abraham, Moses, David and the other folks of faith in Hebrews 11. Could it be possible that Charlton Heston really does look like Moses????
SOOOO WHEN the Old & New Testament Saints of Jesus all get raptured and are given new eternal bodies, they will also receive their rewards and then join with Michael for the big WAR in the heavens to boot lucifer and all of his fallen angels out of the heavens. And after this, in heaven, the Church goes directly into the marriage feast of the LAMB. The Union/Marriage of Christ Jesus and HIS Church and includes all of the O.T. Saints that at the feast and it will fill the heavens for a long long time. It begins around Mid/Trib after which the Church is clothed in fine linen and are given white horses to come down with Jesus to view HIS absolute victory at Armageddon and set up His Kingdom on earth.
We are not told much of the details of that WAR Rev.12:7 in the heavens But it will probably be a learning phase for the Church as to how to do a battle in the heavenly. There is the Unity factor of John 17 that needs completion and also the faith factor of Heb.11 that the Church needs to grow up into to learn how to overcome by the Blood of the Lamb, There is need for a 100% Commitment, Rev.12:11 And there is the organization of Eph. 4:11-16. WE are way behind in learning how to walk all this out at this time. Personally, I don’t feel that WAR is a slam dunk. I feel it is going to be a real hands on spiritual warfare in which the Church/Bride grows up into learning how to be the Rod of Iron for the LORD. That the victory is ours but it could take some time on the battle field for us to get the hang of what we need to know to enjoy that victory. Lucifer and his minions will not go quietly into vacating the power of the air. We enjoy the same spiritual learning processes on earth and with testing. This victory will bring much joy and Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ. We need to practice down here. Rev. 12:12….
In the chronology of Rev. 12, Man-child (Jesus) is caught up Rev.12:5 which will complete the head with the body which is Christ and the Church, He is the Head and the Church is the Body (Rod of Iron) Joined together in the Rapture. Rom.12:5, 1 Cor. 12:27, Col.1:24, The only reason the Church is still here is as yet the Body of Christ is yet incomplete but we are already into the birth pains (Matt. 24) for the delivery so are getting close. The delivery is the Rapture or the snatching away into a new spiritual life of freedom with Christ Jesus, our Creator God made flesh.
REVIEW:
At first, Rev.12:6, for 3 ½ years, the Woman, (Israel) flees into the wilderness this is the beginning of the 7 yr. Great Tribulation and at the same time the war breaks out in heaven and the dragon is defeated and booted out by the Church at the end of that first ½ of the Great Tribulation, Rev. 12:11. The Church enjoys the 1st resurrection at the beginning of the 7 years and each soul is given a new eternal body and also rewards are given for works while on earth. (Not to be confused with salvation.) 1 Cor. 3:13-14. “The work of each [one] will become [plainly, openly] known (shown for what it is); for the day [of Christ] will disclose and declare it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test and critically appraise the character and worth of the work each person has done. 14 If the work which any person has built on this Foundation (Jesus), [any product of his efforts whatever] survives [this test], he will get his reward.” So we are resurrected or translated, given a new body, and evaluated for rewards and then go to assist Michael and make the difference of victory (EZEK.28:18 ) in booting lucifer and his minions out of the heavens. Rev. 12:11. And the devil comes down having great Wrath, Rev.12:12 in the middle of the 7 years of the Great Tribulation of God’s WRATH. He desecrates the Temple . Due to God allowing lucifer to exist we have had the opportunity spiritually grow up very fast. But like wights in a gym, they can make you. Many a good athlete has been broken due to pride and rebellion. The way up, is down in learning about humility and obedience through loving faith in the finished work of Christ Jesus.
