A Closer Look At The Rapture

today too, friend, for Jesus said, "Ye shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free." Just believe the plain
teaching of the Word of God, regardless of how it cuts your
past theology and teaching.
Now let us turn to Luke 17 and see what it says about Noah.
First, Luke 17:26-37
"And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the
days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they
married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day
that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and
destroyed them all. I tell you, in that night there shall be two
men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall
be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall
be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field;
the one shall be taken, and the other left."
Now let us examine this very closely and see who it was that
was taken, and what happens to the one who is left. In John
15:1-2 Jesus says:
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit He taketh away:
and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it
may bring forth more fruit."
Notice please..the one who was taken away was the one who
did not bear any fruit. In Luke the ones who did not enter
into the ark were destroyed when the flood came. The one
who was left was the one who bore fruit, but he was purged
so that he would bear more fruit.
Now let us turn to Matt. 24:37-41 and read carefully
together:
"But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of
the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the
flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in
marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark. And
knew not until the flood came, and took them all away: so
