2033-2006= 27 YEARS that’s a long time from now.

As you know, all prophecy pretty much centers around Israel and what is going on with her, imho things are quickly escalating to book of Daniel and Tribulation events, to go another 27 years we would have to see dramatic changes in attitude in the Muslim countries toward Israel. This is highly unlikely.

I see the logic, behind your thoughts but I’m not sure of the timing, who is? Really, only time will tell. If we are here past Spring 2009 then I will definitely be looking more intently at your thoughts.

You said: “What is going to happen between now and 2033 AD? Will things continue as they have? Personally, I don't think so.  

Some have predicted "revival" for many years. But in all honesty, we have seen 'revival' before. Do we just "have to wait it out"? 

No, I don't think so! For what is going to happen is going to be way beyond 'revival'. It is going to be mankind, those who are the first-fruits, going from mortal to immortal. It is for this change that the whole creation groans in travail.”

To clarify, it seemed you were saying that from now until 2033 we were going to go from being mortal to immortal daily being changed into image of the son and then in 2033 we will be completely revealed in Christ’s image.

I know that “we are daily being conformed into the image of the son” through His word, however; ONLY Jesus is the “perfecter of our faith”. He is the one that changes us. I can’t help but think how your theory would apply to those already dead in Christ. How are they completely changed into “the image of the son”?

The only answer I could think of, is Jesus does it. He is the “author and finisher of our faith” and “He  is able” to completely change us, I would think since the dead are completely in the spirit and no longer “warring in the flesh” it would be easy for the holy spirit to complete the work, “the spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak”. So once the flesh is gone, and the spirit is willing, we will be like Jesus for He is the one that perfects us.

Remember? For we will be in the company of “just men MADE perfect”  Jesus makes us perfect. And HE will make all those that belong to Him perfect at the rapture. I can’t wait.

Right now spring 2006 or 2007 or  spring 2008 the next majority sabbatical year look really good for rapture timing.
