But what did He mean when He said that some would be taken--and some would be left? For ages prophecy teachers have offered contradictory explanations of.

For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Now what does the word vengeance mean to you? Now the actual vengeance belongs to the Lord, but we are going to be there at his side executing vengeance. Look at Psalm Then verse 9 says,. Praise you the Lord. Now read Revelation That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains and the flesh of mighty men One has to remember that the language of the book of Revelation is in part symbolic in nature, meaning that we do not actually eat the FLESH, but rather take part in the slaying of the wicked.

Read the very next verse, Luke Here is a drawing that I made to teach a Bible study on the end times at church. The popular rapture theory, for instance, says that Two men in the field.
“Just as in the Days of Noah”? Should You Be “Taken” Or “Left”?
The popular rapture theory, for instance, says that those who are left are the unbelievers. But how can we know if one position or another is truly supported by Scripture? Typically, this debate centers exclusively on the context of the passage, yet in this case, context alone can be twisted any number of ways. That's why in this timely study, theologian Stephen Bohr approaches the issue by walking through both the Old and New Testaments to examine how the people in Jesus' time and throughout the Bible would have understood these terms.
Step by step, he builds an ironclad case that will carry you to a carefully researched conclusion that you can trust--giving you a powerful foundation that will help open up Bible prophecy to you like never before. Paperback , 48 pages. To see what your friends thought of this book, please sign up.

La Vista Church of Christ
Lists with This Book. This book is not yet featured on Listopia. Jul 22, Max Hernandez rated it it was amazing. Very deep study of what Jesus meant in Mathew 24 when he said one will be taken and the other left. This Bible essay attempts to give the clear picture as we find it in the scriptures, comparing text with text and scripture passage with scripture passage. The two scripture references where we find the issue under consideration are found in:.
Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left; two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and the other left. I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed; the one will be taken and the other will be left. Two women will be grinding together the one will be taken and the other left.
Two men will be in the field; the one will be taken and the other left. Note in the Greek men and women are not mentioned, it reads only duo. Two are in bed, two are grinding, and two are in the field. From the context we know that the setting is the second coming of the Son of Man, Matthew The first thing we will settle is the visibility or no visibility of the coming of the Son of man. Will it take place in secret or in public, visible for all? Then in Joel 3: But how will it be? Mark confirms the same in The coming of Christ will be a glorious event and appearing.
Not in secret or noiseless.
One shall be taken and the other left - Luke - Zechariah
It will be in the same manner as He ascended into heaven. As He left this earth, so He will return. What do we know about what will happen when Christ returns? The apostle Paul divides this gathering together into two parts. One part will be raised and the other will be changed.
Also with the sound of a trumpet as Jesus mentioned in 1 Cor. The Lord will descend with a shout, with the voice of an archangel and with the trumpet of God. The dead in Christ will rise first, and then the living saints will join them and together be caught up in the clouds. Those who are not ready and the dead wicked ones will not be in this group. We discover here a certain order of events to happen. What will happen first and what will follow after. Some conclude from reading in Matthew We will go through some Biblical examples to find the order of events when Christ returns.
Jesus refers to the time of Noah and Lot in Matthew We read in Genesis7: The Lord commanded them to go into the ark, as the Lord also had commanded Noah to build an ark.
The Days of Noah...
Then 7 days later the flood came and the ones outside the ark, left behind, perished in the floodwaters. This is what Jesus confirms in both scripture passages of Matthew 24 and Luke 17; the people were living it up until the day that Noah entered into the ark and they knew it not until the flood came and took them all away. Some read into Matthew The Greek word for took is from airo not from lambano as in vs.
The contextual meaning is also the opposite. Here it means to take away, to lift up for destruction, for death. This is in harmony with Luke The people of that time saw, visibly, Noah and his family and the animals going into the ark. They, Noah and his family and the animals, were taken first. The same happened with Lot. The angels came to Lot in Sodom. People saw these angels. Lot was told to go out and warn the people.
