Two Raptures

(A study on the 3 Harvests and the Pre and Mid Raptures reconciling scriptures that didn't BOTH fit the puzzle until now)

Luke 17:22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

Matthew 24:33 So likewise you, when you shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

There are 2 doors.

3 Harvest Cycles mentioned in the Word of God:

Barley:  The Bride of Christ/caught up in the first rapture to meet THE LORD in the air (many verses say "to meet our Lord in the air" a more personal, intimate wording)

Wheat: Those who are to go through the first part of the tribulation (not the second half as none of God's children are apponted to wrath) are HARVESTED BY ANGELS (the Son of Man coming in glory wording (less intimate) is used for this harvest of souls) tribulum board is used to remove the hard shell

Grape: the lost who are trodden in the great wine press (Rev 14:19) (Jews protected in Petra at this time)

2 Raptures 3 Comings: I gave myself a test and printed the following list from this website.  Without comparing verses, I took 3 different colored highlighters and highlighted those scriptures that pertained to the Bride at the first coming of the Lord, then the verses that spoke of a rapture in the middle of the tribulation where Jesus spoke in a timeline order of events and then those that pertain to when the Lord comes at the end of the tribulation with His saints to the earth.  I looked them up in context with the subtuigent and AFTER I was done, I noticed starting similarities to this 2nd Rapture where they all stated one like the Son of Man coming on the clouds with power and great glory and angels were sent to harvest these people.  All of the verses pertaining to the firstfruits rapture of the Bride were more intimate and we are always caught up and not gathered by angels.

This 2 rapture concept reconciles the way that Matthew 24 is laid out stating the timeline when Jesus spoke of the Son of Man appearing to the tribes just after the abomination and then said the following:

Matthew 24 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:  (Notice that this could line up with Mark Biltz Eclipse Trumpets September 2015)

30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (This scripture is spoken of in a timeline and does not mention the shout, trumpet of God, it is "a trumpet" possibly to fulfill the Feast of Trumpets with this coming or does not mention the voice of the archangel)  When you look up in the Greek "one end of heaven to the other" it says it is the uppermost part of Heaven.  If as most teach this verse speaks of the end of the tribulation, why would he take them to heaven and turn right back around again to return to earth?

This teaching also makes sense of the timeline laid out in the Book of Revelation (Chapter 11) where all of the tribulation saints and the 144,000 Jews and all are seen by John in heaven to see Jesus crowned at the Coronation of the King (feast of Trumpets) and the Bema Seat Judgment now that the time of the Gentiles be fulfilled.  Then in Chapter 12 JUST before the start of the Great Tribulation (last 3 1/2 years) Satan is cast down to earth as the woman Israel/Jews is taken care of for 1260 days to be protected in Petra and he knows his time is short (all of the Christians are gone so satan turns to God's remnant the Jews), then the bowls of wrath are poured out.  All of God's children are now in Heaven, but not all were counted worthy to escape ALL of these things and be the Bride of Christ (Luke 21:36).  Those saved after this time in the last half of the tribulation will be blessed to step into the Millenial reign of Christ on earth for the 1000 year reign.

This also reconciles how the very day Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone poured out on Sodom (Luke 17:29).  The second half of the tribulation starts just after the Lord raptures the Wheat harvest Christians who have been tested and tried during the first half of the tribulation and have returned to the Lord as their first love and have served him. Also note the order of Matthew after chapter 24 is the parable of Ten Virgins and then the parable of the talents.  It is possible that the tribulation saints and those left behind will earn their place in the Millenial Kingdom by how they served the Jews and lived during these times of testing.

This teaching makes perfect sense of the parable of the 10 Virgins which has been debated for years and is now clear as day (too much to write, please click on this website for more details)

http://www.ffruits.org/v03/thetenvirgins.html

Scripture shows that the Philadelphian saints of Revelation 3:7-13 will go in the FIRST TRUMP Rapture, and that the Laodicean saints (and others from the other churches as well) of Rev. 3:14-22 will be left behind at that time. However, they will be taken up with the Tribulation saints in the LAST TRUMP RAPTURE at the 3 1/2 year mark in the middle of the tribulation.

God's will for us as His children in order to fill His house are not only to be justified by faith.  We are to be sanctified and then finally glorified.  The exception may be that if someone gives their life to the Lord and the rapture occurs a week later, they did not have the chance and my guess would be that the Lord will take them in the first rapture.  The Laodicians are lukewarm and knew better, and they are not currently serving the Lord (Five foolish sleeping virgins), they are wordly and have no need of anything (Rev. 3:14-22)
