36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
Introduction
Most Christians today believe that Jesus is about to come in the air, and the church will be raptured, caught up to meet him in the air.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
We do believe in a literal return of the Lord Jesus.
There is a Heaven, and there is a literal Jesus Christ There that will come in a body form to receive His Church to Himself. No matter how old the story seems, it’s still the Truth. God said so. That’s what believers believe. 63-1124E - "Three Kinds Of Believers"
A prophet came in our day to rightly divide these things, so we would know what we are looking for in this day.
The thing we don’t know about it is the day and the hour.
106 God’s great mystery, of how, it’s a secret. He kept it a secret. Nobody knowed nothing about it. Even the Angels didn’t understand it. See, He didn’t reveal it. That’s the reason, under our seventh mystery, when the Seventh Seal was opened, there was silence.
Jesus, when He was on earth, they wanted to know when He would come. He said, “It’s not…Even the Son Himself don’t know when it’s going to happen.” See, God has this all to Himself. It’s a secret.
And that’s the reason there was silence in Heaven for a space of a half hour, and seven thunders utter their voices, and John was even forbidden to write it, see, the Coming of the Lord. That’s one thing He hasn’t revealed yet, of how He will come, and when He will come. It’s a good thing that He doesn’t. No.
(Now the part we do know)
107 He has showed or revealed it in every type that’s in the Bible. Therefore, the entire Bible is the revelation of God’s mystery in Christ. Hum! The entire Bible is an expression of one goal that God had, one purpose He wanted to achieve in the entire Bible.
And all the acts of the believers in the Bible has been in type, an expressing what God’s great goal is, and now in this last day He has revealed it and shows it. And God’s help, we’ll see it right here this morning, what the Lord has had in His mind all along, and has expressed it. 63-0728 - "Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed"
