There is no rapture, and the 7 years was shortened to a 5 month period.

God is coming HERE, why would we be leaving?

THAT message “I’ve come to fly you away” is gonna get ALOT of “Christians” serving Satan

Why do you want Catholics on this thread? You already know where we stand. I’m going to lurk with a bag of popcorn as you guys disagree with each other. Have fun!

“1217 AD a German Rabbi of great devotion, Rabbi Judah ben Samuel, was given a vision from Elijah regarding the city of Jerusalem”

Why should anyone believe that?

Why would you base your premise on some abiblical, ie apostate, soothe saying?

Nicely written, it has palpable depth - thanks for posting. But don't be so defensive. You wrote from the Spirit. Nothing else is required.

“Come on Catholics, we know you don't believe.”

Why did you say that? I am Catholic and go to mass every week. We believe in God the Father, God the Son, and God, the Holy Spirit, and believe Jesus will come to take us home. I don't think you know what Catholics believe.

The Transfiguration was the glorification of the human body of Jesus. On this occasion His body underwent a change in form, a metamorphosis, so that it shone as brightly as the sun. At the time of the Transfiguration, Jesus’ earthly ministry was coming to a close. He had acknowledged that He was the Messiah and predicted His death and resurrection. Now He was to reveal, to a select few, His divine glory.

The Bible gives this account:

Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother brought them up on a high mountain by themselves, and was transfigured before them. his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with him . . . A bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, ‘This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear him!’ And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. But Jesus came and touched them and said, ‘Arise, and do not be afraid.’ And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only (Matthew 17:1-3,5-8).

Jesus Himself

First, there is the Lord Jesus in His glorified body.

There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light (Matthew 17:2)
He will rule in His coming kingdom in His glorified body.

Moses

Moses, in his glorified body, represented the saved that will enter God’s kingdom through death.

Elijah

Elijah never died. He represents those believers who enter the kingdom of God by the translation or the rapture of the church.

I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed - in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality (1 Corinthians 15:50-53).
Jesus’ Disciples

Peter, James, and John in their natural bodies depict those Jewish believers who will enter the coming kingdom.

The Various Nations That Will Make Up The Kingdom

The multitude of people, left at the base of the mountain, represent the various nations who will enter the kingdom of God in their natural or non-glorified bodies.

In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his place of rest will be glorious. In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt, from Cush, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath and from the islands of the sea. He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four quarters of the earth (Isaiah 11:10-12).

The Transfiguration is significant because it was the glorification of the body of Jesus. Those with Him saw Jesus in His glory. The appearance of Moses and Elijah testified that Jesus was the one of whom the law and prophets spoke. The approving testimony of God the Father further confirmed the identity of Jesus.

In the Transfiguration of Jesus we have the various elements of the coming kingdom represented. There is the glorified King, those who will come into the kingdom through death, those who will come into the kingdom through the transformation of their bodies at the rapture of the church, those Jewish believers who will enter into the millennial reign of Christ in their earthly bodies, as well as the people from the various nations who will also enter into the millennium in non-glorified bodies.

I agree with you.

But, as you have noticed, while this site is conservative, it is not necessarily Christian...

and many on this site despise any hint of dispensationalism.
