1 Thessalonians 4:15-18

   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.  For the Lord Himself will 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:  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.  Wherefore comfort one another with these words.     

​​​​​​​2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing

The Lord will keep His word and return on time, be comforted

So much brutality has happened in Syria and the middle east. On another site someone was voicing the question if Is 17 has already happened since Damascus and surrounds are so damaged. Below is what I replied.

I have wondered about Damascus also. It seems though that the city could be rebuilt, plowed under or something. I don't know how long Sarin lasts before breaking down. What terrible associations with the place though, many would not want to live there.

I was up early too thinking about events and scripture, rereading 1Thes 4:14-18, be comforted.
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.

Those that sleep in Jesus in Damascus and throughout Syria are not lost but await that great resurrection day. Perhaps some still alive in Syria will remember the faith and witness of the dead and give their life to the Lord Christ Jesus before it is too late for them. The Lord will actually descend from heaven, just as He ascended, bodily visible, descending from a higher place to the space where clouds are. The archangel is going to shout, a trumpet will sound or God's voice, He Himself will sound like a trumpet, maybe amplified so we can hear and pay attention!

The dead in Christ rise first. If it is like the dead rising following the crucifixion of Jesus, who were seen, then people will SEE the dead raised. Then we who are alive and remain will be CAUGHT UP to meet our Jesus and believers in the clouds and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Those amazing clouds, Jesus went up in a cloud and comes down in one. He doesn't need clouds to move. He went in and out of buildings after the resurrection and appeared at will. He ate. so what is with the clouds?
Are they hiding something? Hiding what?
What is with a door being opened in Rev 4? Is it all a dream or apocalyptic story telling? Or do we actually meet God and enter where He lives through a door? Door to what? A door to a vehicle, to a dimension, to a building, or to a city? (that would take one big cloud to hide a city).

We are told in 2Thes 2:10-12 that God will send unbelievers a strong delusion, give them what they want (untruth) since they don't want the truth. Maybe the way we go up to God will be part of this, that those left behind will not believe the truth (that we are caught up to the Lord with other believers to where He lives), but they will believe a lie about what happened and where we went.

Just thoughts. Be encouraged. God knows exactly what is going on and He is good, He is faithful, He is trustworthy. He knows when even one sparrow falls to the ground and has numbered all the hairs on your head. He knows the people of Syria, of Damascus, Homs, and all the cities of the world. The rocks cannot hide us from Him, death cannot separate us from Him.
The King of the Universe is coming again.
Look UP. We will be caught UP to meet Him in the air.
Maybe an angel will take our hand and lead us up.
That would be more elegant than a fish net.
Love to all

Re: The Lord will keep His word and return on time, be comforted

Thanks Regina,

I believe Damascus is yet to become a resinous heap, where it will be almost impossible to rebuilt, sounds like an nuclear strike to me.

Yes we should comfort one another, as we await the Lord's soon return.

" 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.

Maranatha!
