Are We There Yet? Rapture

No.  We are not in the Millennial Kingdom.  We’re not even at the Rapture yet.  With that out of the way, let’s take a final multi-part look at how Jews and Christians are heirs together…in a way that coheres with Scripture.

How does that relate to the rapture of the Church, the Tribulation, and the Millennial Kingdom spoken about in Revelation 20 and being “heirs together”?

The Gospel is the foundation for the first resurrection.  Jesus is our model…Who Scripture calls the author/pioneer and finisher/perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).

The deciding factor will be faith. It will also be orderly. 

The Lord will come down from heaven into the air, then the dead in Christ (the saints Old Testament era and New) will rise first.  Faith “credited as righteousness” Jews looking forward to Christ will be there along with Jewish (like the disciples) and Gentile believers in Christ in the New Testament era.

Again, the deciding factor is whether one is “in Christ” or apart from Him. 
So, the question each of us needs to ask ourselves is “Am I in Christ or apart from Him?”
