Saved and Delivered From God’s Wrath

wrath to come.”
“and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom he raised

those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who

have no hope.
14
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God
will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
(Our loved ones believers who were asleep will be resurrected

and will also be raptured)
15
For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are
alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede
those who are asleep.
15
16
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the
voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in
Christ will rise first.

17
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with
them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus, we shall always
be with the Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:53-55
53
For this incorruptible must put on incorruption, and this
mortal must put on immortality.
54
So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this
mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass
the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in
victory.”
55
“Oh death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your
victory?
56
The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.
57
But thanks be to God, who gives us victory through our
Lord Jesus Christ.

always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that
your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

The Concept of Jubilee is Concerning the Rapture
Leveticus 25:14-16
14
And if you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your
neighbor’s hand, you shall not oppress one another.
15
According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy
from your neighbor, and according to the number of years of crops
he shall sell to you.
16
The more years until the next Jubilee, the higher the price; the
fewer the years, the lower the price. After all, the person selling
the land is actually selling you a certain number of harvests.
Last Jubilee is 2014 then the next Jubilee is after 10 years

which is 2024.
• When you buy a land on 2015, the price is so high.

which is 2024.
• But when you buy it on 2022, the price is so low.

which is 2024.
• But when you buy it on 2022, the price is so low.
The rapture is our Jubilee, the moment we have witnessed the

signs of the second coming of Jesus, we should value less the
things in this world, (possessions and positions).
Shall we face the judgement seat after the Rapture?
9
So we make it our goal to please Him, whether we are at
home in the body or away from it.
10
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ so
that each of us may receive what is due for the things done
while in the body, whether good or bad.
11
Since then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, and we try
to persuade others. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it
is also plain to your conscience.
