Again, I am at a great loss in my Spirit to reconcile the level of fear and belief!!!!!

My belief is no one is in fear of the 3 day concept. It's more a simple matter of whether an individual *believes it or not, or that *either way, it isn't a concern for them.

That isn't fear! For either of those reasons, it may be a discussion that some don't wish to enter in to. The simplicity of looking up - waiting to hear that shout from our Lord, may be the greater longing for them.

Heeding a 3 day warning may not be a concern to many because it isn't written. What many or most may be relying on is their simple Faith Hope and Joy in the promised rapture alone, however it occurs.

God gave us a written biblical description and possibly most saints have greater spiritual peace in taking Him for His Word as written, which is enough. Where trust in that alone, is greater to them than concern over a 3 day warning that is not promised and remains uncertain.

I sensed a shift in "the force" starting the beginning of May.   Not just believers but the world in general, like we turned a final corner and are on the last lap.  We are seeing the takeover of our countries, health, speech, etc that was going to happen in 2030 moved up to 2023 - in other words 6 months!

I have thought for years that as the Body of Christ we would ALL know the "time" of Jesus' return for us.  In my years of study I think we need to watch the signs in the earth and sky. We've seen an increase of earthquakes and solar signs.  I'm hoping for a Full Moon rapture at midnight Jerusalem time.  Will we get a 3 day warning?   All I can think of is the bridesmaids waiting and hearing the horns of the parade coming near.  I think we will ALL hear His coming, will it be 10, 3, or 1 day I'm not sure but I keep checking here to see if anyone is getting a "Word from the Lord" with others getting it also.

Hope to see you all soon!  Lee

As such, I have refused to present a formal teaching! But rather a simple what if proposition!

Even so, given our predaliction for undrstanding prophecy and as much effort as is given on this site to that end, I don't understand what anyone's fear could be based upon???

It simply doesn't make sense?!

If it does happen I will give thanks, and if it doesn't, I will give thanks!

All good stuff so far - I will concur with TR if all of us got the same “download” from the Holy Spirit all at once - that sure would be an unmistakeable sign - but if that happens who among us would be so bold as to admit it first?!?!?! Lol!  I know I would probably refrain and think everyone is not going to believe this.

The only issue is that I can’t find where anything like that ever happened in the Bible, so that would seem to be a brand new thing.  As far as I know any warnings given in the Bible came through a prophet or spokesman of some kind, nevertheless if the scenario TR suggested were to happen as a new thing, it would be unmistakable.

Also considering what Geri and Kolleen said as well, I do wonder if there is a delay in between the “glorification/new body” and the actual catching up as Geri said, which does seem to have a little bit of scriptural precedent from the scriptures that Geri cited, yet along the lines of what Kolleen was talking about, I wonder if an obvious warning not only to the church but also to unbelievers,  (if the saints were glorified prior to rapture, thus providing a small warning even to the unbelieving world) would violate God’s method of letting people believe by faith alone and not by sight.

It seems like the Bible alludes to at our removal there will be a strong deception among unbelievers, so how will the unbelievers be so easily deceived if it is extremely obvious that we are glorified before we vanish?  These are just the things I ponder, I could really go either way, because I will readily admit I have no idea how God is going to do the play by play on this one.  But I am enjoying reading all of your thoughts on this one. :good:

I don't understand TR, how you determine the saints are fear-based if they don't discuss a 3 day warning??

I thought I just spent several minutes commenting on "why" siblings might have a whole different viewpoint - not to be ignored - and far from fears!
