12/03/12 ONLY THE "ONLY" WILL BE RAPTURE READY
AGAIN, concerning those who will be LEFT BEHIND.
AGAIN, concerning those who will be LEFT BEHIND.
Actually, there will be many who are left behind because they never prepared to go in the Rapture. Some people think that faith without works will save them. If our faith does not work, it will not save us from sin in this present evil world or from God's wrath in the world to come. In fact, if they do not EXPERIENCE the purifying grace of God in this world, they will never spend eternity with God. Consider the verses in my comment box below. Without holiness, no man shall see the Lord.
Rapture Ready...
Only those who are spiritually pure will be Rapture Ready.
2 Corinthians 11:2
(2) For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Only those who are sanctified, cleansed, spotless, holy and without wrinkle or blemish will be Rapture Ready.
Ephesians 5:25-27
(25) ... Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
(26) That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
(27) That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Only those who are holy, unblameable and unreproveable in His sight will be Rapture Ready. (Remember, God sees us as we are.)
Colossians 1:21-23
(21) And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
(22) In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
(23) If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
Only those who are sanctified entirely and those whose spirit and soul and body is preserved blameless unto His coming will be Rapture Ready.
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
(23) And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

(14) Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Only those who are pure, even as He is pure will be Rapture Ready.
1 John 3:2-3
(2) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Only those who are unblemished (faultless) will be Rapture Ready.
Jude 1:24
(24) Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Only those who are living in a present state of grace by active faith as children of God will be Rapture Ready.

If your salvation is not experiential, your salvation is not actual.
Faith that does not conform you to the image of Jesus in this present world is not saving faith, it is presumption.
