THE RAPTURE - There are 2 Raptures - one of the Philidelphian Church
just before Satan is cast down and one for the Laodicean Church
just After Satan takes charge of Jerusalem and Tempts and Tests if
People will become Muslims or loose their heads.
Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write;
I will make them to come and worship before thy feet,
I also will keep you from the time of temptation, which shall come to try them upon earth.
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;
16 So, because thou art lukewarm, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
------------------------==============================-------------------
A PLACE PREPARED BY JESUS / GOD
Revelation 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Revelation 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Revelation 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
========================================
The Bema Seat is the Judgement Seat of Jesus to Judge the Christians.

2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Many miss that it's, "that every one may receive the things done in His Body", as in the church which is His Body.

It's just a loose term used today. It's not in the KJB, but the event of being caught up certainly is.

Dan, did you mean to capitalize He? That makes it look like what Christ has done in/through His Body, none of which can be "bad," only good.
That's the way I've always understood it...we receive or lose rewards based on how we've served as His members, sin no longer being relevant.

All the entanglements/affairs of this life/causes that we get wrapped up in instead of the spiritual warfare we are in are going to go up in smoke! Paul tells us to endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ/don't get entangled!
2 Timothy 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
2 Timothy 2:4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
Those that stand before; God the Father, will be judged
according to their works! Their END will START at "The
Lake of Fire!"

Exactly why I've begun trying to modify my comportment and engagements here on TOL.

agreed.
I think this is what Jesus meant when he said: "You will be over 5 cities." or "10 cities"
cities - being a metaphor for the "category" as you say, that we were involved with during this life.
Are you worried of the terror of the Lord at this judgment?

No, but I know it
2 Corinthians 5:11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
As you know, the letters did not have chapters and verses, nor those headings. Read it as a letter, and he is trying to persuade men to be reconciled. That is what I see

The Rapture (raised, caught up) is a Bible fact:
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 KJV 13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 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. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Derivation of the word "Rapture"
Latin - "Rapturo"
Greek - "Harpazo"
English - "Caught Up"

Yikes...
why can't it mean cities, as he said it, to the people he said it to.
See what you have to do to the Holy Bible when you force it to all be about you...today.
=all scripture is written specifically to me, LALaw, is about me, and is for my obedience.
Thanks for, once again, contributing NADA to a thread, Col. Klink-ette, Frau D. Poser.

I've always wondered why Paul drops that appeal to be reconciled to God right in the middle of his talk to the Corinthians, who already were. I am open to further light on it.
Hi , and that is a reward for those from Israel , only !!~
Is never for the Body of Christ !!

I do read Paul's letters not as chapter and verse but letters as a whole and anyone who does can see that there was a mixed bag in Corinth (1 Corinthians 1:12 KJV). Take Apollos for example. He was eloquent, mighty in the scriptures, and instructed in the way of the Lord and knowing only the baptism of John (Acts 18:24-25 KJV) before the word of God was expounded unto him more perfectly by Aquila and Priscilla (Acts 18:26 KJV) and obviously the fornicators/idolaters. Not all were saved, but Paul declared the gospel by which the ones who were, are saved (just as we are saved 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV).
And through all of that, I still come out believing that we will receive a reward for how we built upon the foundation that a wise master builder Paul laid (1 Corinthians 3:10-15 KJV).
