JUDGEMENT AND RAPTURE.

There are many who think that on the Judgement Day the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall resurrect physically and together with believers still on earth ascend to meet Lord in the sky.

 

This belief is not in conformity with the Laws of God!

 

The Laws will not permit earthly bodies that have been buried thousands of years ago to resurface and ascend to the skies. Neither can the physical bodies of those living on earth transform suddenly and ascend to Heaven. The natural happening is that at death, the human spirit leaves the body, passes over and ascends or descends in the beyond. The physical body on the other hand originates from the earth, was acquired by us from earth and must remain on earth after the departure of the soul.

 

What is really connected to the prophecies of the Day of Judgment is not the resurrection of all the dead, but resurrection of all that is dead inside of man! Contrary to the popular picture in our minds that the approximately 7 billion people in the world will one day line up  day and night  to be judged, the Holy Spirit Who is the World Judge will simply  send out judgment rays from His Sword of Justice into the Universe! These rays of judgement then goes forth and strikes everything in Creation with unprecedented force. When these invisible rays fall upon the human soul, all his dormant qualities that have hitherto appeared to be dead will awaken and become strong. Whatever is hiding inside man will develop into thought and deed, so that according to its nature it will in manifesting judge itself. What is impure will be shattered and burnt up and what is pure will blossom and grow strong.

 

Whatever is slumbering in man will come to life! This is the true meaning of the resurrection of all that is dead and such is the manifestation of the World Judgment in its simple naturalness! We are witnessing unprecedented deeds of madness worldwide today  because the majority of men have loads of poison slumbering inside them. The activities of terrorist groups, individual and group suicide bombings, widespread homosexuality/immorality and its endorsements by “advanced countries”,  religious fanaticism, mind boggling corruption, ripping off easy going believers by sweet talking/ miracle peddling religious leaders and false prophets show precisely what we all have inside us. These will now come out in the ongoing judgement for us and all others to see! The current exposure of our inner self together with the accompanying natural catastrophes are the loud trumpets of the judgement!

 

Therefore, those who are impure within, who cling to evil and remain slaves to material things will be exposed by the Light of God and together with their wrongdoing will be swept into perdition!

 

The way to understand the second coming of the Lord Jesus and the Rapture is to see these in the spiritual sense.

 

Christ comes to us in the New Gospel brought to mankind by the Spirit of Truth as promised by Jesus.

 

In the fulfilment of this sacred Promise, there is on earth today The Message which is the true Gospel of Christ. This Message speaks of Him and glorifies Him. It comes to mankind before the end of one epoch and the start of a new one which usher in the Kingdom of God on earth. We read in Matthew 24:14 -- And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

 

Those who listen, accept and live by this Gospel will be able to ascend back to Paradise (rapture). The ascent is made possible for these human beings because their longing for the Kingdom of God and their obedience to the Holy Word of God makes them spiritually pure and light so that when they leave the flesh they will naturally ascend to the Beautiful Gardens of our God.

 

We must therefore deal with all that is within us and purify ourselves in our innermost wishes, thought, word and deed so that we will be among those who will be permitted to ascend to the Kingdom of Heaven!

WE ARE MANAGERS

When considered in the light of Truth, we can see "management" as alignment to the harmony of creation. Not to be a disturbance but to observe the laws of creation and thereby contribute to the ever continuing development.

At the earliest times when the material world had reached the peak of its development, there was a need for further development. The highest animals had reached their peak and in order not to be a standstill which will lead to decay, man arrived on the scene thus ensuring the further development of this part of creation.



This brings one to the many  write ups that suggest that man is nothing, not special and that the earth will thrive better in the absence of man. Of course, these do not reflect the truth.

You and I are to be helpers in these lower parts of creation and further it as mediators of Light to all other creatures.

New knowledge available today informs us that the power of the Almighty flows through all things including man. In our case we are specially made such that we are like lenses and can gather this power and direct it specifically to achieve one aim or another. You may call this "management" as we will be held responsible for how we use this power entrusted to us.

Because man is spiritual then we may not look at management as being limited to mere earthly management of material resources. We ought to be more holistic in our approach and remember that the spiritual aspects are even more important and determines what happens in the material.

The type of noble management worthy of man's striving include:

1. having a firm volition for what is good.

2. Giving purity to our thoughts.

3. Doing what we have to do for the joy and welfare of others and not how to harm them.

4. Generally working in harmony with the order in creation by adherence to creation laws.

With these, miracles upon miracles will unfold before us visibly such that all doubts will disappear.


We will then be good managers, good householders and good helpers in creation and good warriors on the side of the Light capable of slaying all darkness!

With our strict adherence to God's laws, we become useful helpers in His Vineyard and can then be considered as children of God!
