Jesus Will Come “like a thief in the night” (A Surprise, Suddenly)
1 Thessalonians 5:2-4 (NIV) for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

Oh, good grief.

Turn off your computer and go to bed.

They are stuck on the "milk" and haven't gone to the meat. There are 7 letters to the churches in Revelation. All churches had something holding them back except one. As a rule, most of us believe we are the church of Philadelphia. As we read today's headlines with gay priests and acceptable abortion in the pews full of fornicators, why wouldn't a general knowledge of what someone told them was in the Bible be sufficient?

Polls say that 80% of America is "Christian". Somebody is lying. Obama is President.

YOU CANNOT GRASP BIBLE PROPHESY WITHOUT SOME KNOWLEDGE OF THE JEWISH CULTURE, LAWS, AND RELIGION.

The day that no one knows is Rosh HaShanah . Ask a Jew. Turkey Day is Thanksgiving, ask an American. The Feast of Trumpets is also Rosh HaShanah, the same Feast day. The reason is is the day no one knows is because it lasts TWO DAYS. The Jews Jesus was speaking to knew exactly what day He was speaking of. Knowing WHICH Rosh HaShanah is the trick. This alludes to the marriage Feast because the Father of the Bride Groom decided when to send His Son to get His Bride. The Rapture will happen on some Rosh HaShanah, we just aren't sure which. This guy make allot of sense, except he doesn't believe in Rapture and he has some secret knowledge of a deal made by the US and Israel.

Now if the pooh pooohers want to pooh pooh that, well, OK. But to say we can't know when Jesus will come get us or what day He comes back, isn't true. He even says we shouldn't be in the dark about it. Someone will know. Figuring out who, is the problem. This guy could be right, but there have been false prophets before. The key is for us as the Bride, to be the wise virgins and be ready when He comes for us. He is coming and it will be soon. The signs and seasons are all around us. The attitude of many here seems to be "I'm going to raise hell as long as possible and repent 10 minutes before He comes. There are multiple parables about those people in Mathew. If you knew when the Thief was coming, you would have been watching.

I find no fault in this guy's article, except I can't know about the secret Temple deal, and I believe the Bride will be Raptured before the wrath of God is released. Scripture says we are not the children of wrath. If God loves his people, why would He pour out His wrath upon us? That's not to say we will have a rosy time with all the evil here on Earth, but it won't be from the scrolls and vials in Heaven. I cannot see the church left here past the first 1260 days. I could still make sense for me to be Raptured this September, even if the Tribulation had already started.

Oh, and just as a side note, any Temple built before Jesus returns belongs to Satan. Many churches are sending money to Israel to rebuild the Temple and it will be home sweet home for the AntiChrist. Scripture tells us that Jesus will build his own Temple when He returns, after a Sabbath of course. There is nothing in Scripture that requires a Temple rebuilding before we could be Raptured. Of course, the Temple will be rebuilt for the Second Coming, but I want to be at the Marriage Feast and come back with the Lord rather than with all the plagues and pestilence on Earth. It makes me wonder how deep the preachers of these churches have looked into Scripture when they preach we need to give an offering to the Temple builders for Jesus to "come back". I was in a church that even said if you give a certain amount, you could get your name inscribed on a brick. How nice to have your name in the abode of Satan.

4 But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

But yet all these folks seem to look forward to being surprised...

One does not need to know even an approximtate date of Jesus’ return in order to NOT be surprised when it happens. In fact, that is the nature of the Christian life - living in constant readiness for His return. Believe me, there is nothing “lazy, lackadaisical or lukewarm” about that.

It seems to me that the people who may be the most surprised are those who are obsessed with date-watching and guessing, quite simply becasue they have taken their eyes off the prize.
