Hey, what has to happen? What must happen before the rapture of the church takes place?

Is this something that is clear in scripture? Yeah, we're going to find out. Let me start this way,

if you would. The previous time together, I shared with you my personal experience, and you can check that out if you'd like regarding why and how the Bible had to direct me in where I landed on what is called eschatology, which by the way is so true about soteriology,

uh, isriology, um, dispensations is that word even in the Bible?

What about foreknowledge, predestination, justification, uh, glorification, sanctification,

all these things you have, I have to study and that is over our lifetime of discipline and being a student of the Word of God.

Look, I love you, but when people get all excited and all pumped up about their and this and that, and that than the other, I don't, I don't even let that ruffle me because neither should you.

Because a lot of people are on their journey, but they still have access to the internet or social media.

And they say things that they don't even know what they talk about.

She, what did you address them? That'd be impossible. And I'm not going to waste my time.

Over time, it's the Holy Spirit's

job to disciple us in the scripture. We are to present ourselves to the Word of God and then

the Spirit of God, as Jesus promised us, will teach us all truth and guide us into all truth.

That said, let me start by saying this. Regarding the first coming of Jesus Christ, it's

important you know when that happened. That's right. The first coming of Jesus Christ already

happened. When did that happen? The Bible told us in the Old Testament what to look for and the Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke,

and John recorded for us. The first coming of Christ, as predicted in the Bible, and recorded

in the New Testament, was Palm Sunday. Read Matthew chapter 23 and that will be very, very clear to you.

But that said, Zechariah 9-9 and many other passages of Scripture.

It is his official first coming.

By the way, it was announced in the Bible and in the event recorded, there's eyewitness accounts, including Jesus himself, make mention of that with assurance.

In fact, he says regarding the 118th Psalm, he says, you, Israel, you won't see me again.
