all other second coming prophetic passages should be read in light of jesus’ words.
Not so...None of the Jews in Mat. 24 knew anything about a born again, Gentile church...It hadn't been revealed yet...They knew nothing about the adoption of Gentiles into the church...Why would Jesus reveal to them the rapture of the Gentile church??? Answer, He wouldn't...
In the book of Revelation, the Wedding takes place 'after' the Rapture, yet, before the end of the Tribulation, before the 2nd coming of Jesus...
But Iscool, the disciples asked Him about how it would be at the end. Also He said, "I have foretold you all things". Wouldn't He have mentioned such a huge event?
it all comes down to matthew 24:29-31 as the rapture and second coming being the one same event at the close of the tribulation period.
jesus said it.
it’s plainly accounted for via the holy spirit’s efficiency.
