God's grace in the New Covenant in his blood reaches deeper and wider than "eschatological" differences or misunderstandings. "He that comes to me I will in no way cast out" (John 6:37) and He "will never leave us or forsake us" (Heb 13:5) because "by one offering he has perfected us, his people, forever" (Heb 10:14) and "our sins and iniquities he remembers no more" (Heb 8:12;10:17).

So All of us believers who are around at the time are going up with Him on the first round. But it will be funny to hear these guys telling Jesus that he's got it all wrong and he came too soon.

God bless and thanks, Giovanna. Christ, not eschatology, is the crucial issue. After Christ, all else by comparison, is "small stuff." Nevertheless, God cares deeply about the well being of his people and wants his people to "reign in life." Hence Paul's words of comfort and encouragement to the Thessalonians.

The Lord is the lifter of my head and his anointing buoys and lifts me up as I along with others, "earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints" (Jude 1:3) regarding "growing in grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18).

I agree with you that all those who know Christ as Savior will go in the Rapture, however no true believer in Christ will ever deny any of the Word of God, because, as we know, Jesus Christ is the Personification of the Word of God:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God.

And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1

Jesus said we would know people by their fruits. Satan and the demons deny Christ and for a man to do the same thing reveals him for what he truly is - unregenerate, still in his natural state, at enmity with God, and under the wrath of God. No one who denies the Word of God will go in the Rapture.

God bless you PapaNew and happy Father's Day!
