“Is the Rapture Designated to Happen on
the Sabbath”
Garry:
No, the Resurrection/Rapture Event will
not be a Sabbath day “Event”. It will not be on the
Jewish Saturday Sabbath. It will be on a Holyday
Convocation, a Feast of the Lord. (Leviticus 23:2) The seven
festivals of the Lord are “the shadow of things to
come”. (Colossians 2:16-17) Jesus was resurrected on
the 8th day symbolizing a “new beginning”.
He was resurrected on Sunday, at the Festival of First
Fruits when the Temple Priests were offering up the “sheaf
of grain” to God. Jesus was represented as the “seed
which had to die to produce much fruit”. (John 12:24)
Study God’s use of the number 8.
The Event will take place at a day and
hour known to God. It will occur on a future
Pentecost, a Holyday. Pentecost is one of the three
pilgrimage feasts given in Leviticus 23. (Exodus 34:22)
Pentecost has not been fulfilled in
typology. The two loaves wave offering (Leviticus
23:17) has never been fulfilled. The two loaves
represent the Church’s resurrection and rapture. The
Church is the fruit represented as “bread” received from the
“personified bread of life Jesus”. (John 6:48)
One loaf represents the resurrection of the dead in
Christ and the other loaf the rapture of the living in
Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:20-28)
Today, nobody knows how to calculate the
pilgrimage feast of Pentecost. All we can stay is that
it will be in the Spring time, before Summer.
