"Children raptured"
In response to Robert Rose: NOT ALL CHILDREN ARE RAPTURED
There have always been calamities that have killed children since sin entered
the human race. There are millions of children dying at this very moment
because they are victims of the curse. Sodom & Gomorrah were examples of cities
saturated with abominable behavior involving/victimizing children The pre-flood
earth with all its occultism, demonism & intermarriage between humans & fallen
angels created children who died in the flood. BUT, these were not the same
kinds of judgments as the trib that follows the Rapture. The Rapture & the
ensuing 7-yr trib is the WRATH of GOD, which God has NOT YET unleashed upon the
earth. All the other instances where children were not rescued from the horrors
of human behavior were simply the results of children caught in the sins of man
with no escape because everything and everyone on earth dies. Jesus said
that CHILDREN ARE THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN because of their innocence & their
forgiven position before the age of accountability sets in. The BRIDE OF
CHRIST is defined by the Lord as sinless, white, perfect, blameless,
blood-covered, eternal, washed. spotless, prepared, innocent,
faithful.........the soon residents of the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, of which CHILDREN
are equally defined by Jesus Himself.
The Age of Accountability is different for each child; and God is merciful and
allows the ages of 12-20 as the years of decision wherewith a child can obey
his/her natural inclination to call out to God. Some have been abused
terribly or have been brainwashed into identities void of any value or purpose;
but God understands eschild. Every child's TINIEST little spark of
interest in his/her Creator is honored by the Lord and weighed in the balance of
God's justice, patience and love AND He never wastes a human. The murderous
rage of a victimized, neglected 16-yr old criminal is seen by God in relation to
his horrific upbringing and his desperate longings to be loved, fit in or to be
valued.
The reason the Jewish women are to be pitied during their flight to the
wilderness is that conception and births will occur during the trib; but
toddlers & young people will already be gone.....PLUS, the disappearance
of fetuses, babies and children (all Arab young) will destroy Islam which only
God can do, since the trib involves other world forces besides/instead of
Islam. There is NO way the Jews can build their Temple, extend their boundaries
eastward or live in peace with the nations if the Moslems had their
way....thus earth's political landscape will change once the Rapture occurs.
It's no big deal, since God knows who are His He'll snatch up HIS
OWN anyway; but I understand children so well and know WHY it's so hard for them
to be Godly when they have been ruined by ignorant/evil parents AND it's not the
childrens' fault!!......because if they are raised with love and ALLOWED to be
what God created they reach out to the Lord automatically, although at various
ages......J. H.
