“Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.” 1 Thessalonians 4:17

The LORD gave me a short message, below, on 5/5/25, which was related to being ‘CAUGHT UP’ (harpazo), also known as the RAPTURE. Many people always ask me what ‘position’ I hold concerning the ‘rapture’…..to which I can only answer what the WORD says: that it will be like the ‘DAYS of NOAH,’ and the ‘DAYS of LOT.’

I have purposely stayed away from this topic because it is ‘so divisive in the Christian community……with its man-made doctrines of either a ‘pre,’ ‘mid,’ or ‘post’ tribulation. I have always been a bit baffled on why people make such a BIG deal over just a ‘SEVEN YEAR’ period…..and can only assume that Satan has used it, for his own nefarious purposes, to bring division, deception, and disunity to the BODY…..which is the exact opposite of what the LORD calls HIS church to be!
Satan is THE MASTER of ‘twisting the truth,’ so he can control the narrative, and thus bring chaos, confusion, along with ‘doctrine of demons’ into the Body of Believers. I can just picture him laughing hysterically at the church, as he performed his lying deceptions, and got the wheels of deception turning.
However, thankfully, we do not have to rely on the doctrines of demons, or doctrines of men, but STAND solely on the WORD OF GOD that says:
“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” Matthew 24:36
IF you look at the next verse, it gives us the MAIN SIGN, CLUE and KEY of how to know when JESUS returns: just as in the DAYS OF NOAH, and in the DAYS OF LOT:
NOAH: “But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.“For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.” Matthew 24:37-39
LOT: “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. “Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.”Luke 17:28-30
These ‘clues,’ and ‘signs’ call for diligent study on what was happening during the days of NOAH, and LOT. In both cases, the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY removed HIS remnant people, BEFORE HE poured out HIS WRATH upon the remaining people. I
This WRATH OF GOD came upon the people because of their most SEVERE depravity, wickedness, lawlessness and violence…..much like what we are seeing, exponentially, across the world today!
There were a ‘remnant’ people, that escaped GOD’s wrath, however, they were VERY FEW in number:
In Noah’s day, there were only EIGHT people that ESCAPED the flood. The number ‘8’ stands for NEW BEGINNINGS of salvation through water of baptism/HOLY SPIRIT:
“Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.” 1 Peter 3:21
In Lot’s day, only he, and his children escaped. His wife, who loved her worldly life more, looked back longingly at Sodom, and therefore was turned into a pillar of salt……which is a good example of how we are ‘not to look back’ at the world—but, instead, move forward in the obedience of the LORD.
This LOW number that was SAVED FROM THE WRATH OF GOD is what the LORD showed me specifically while receiving the message below. This should bring the FEAR OF GOD, which is the beginning of wisdom, upon us to get right with the LORD…. through repentance, seeking humility, purity, and holiness. It is a walk that very few are willing to do, therefore, the number that will ESCAPE will be few.
This is a hard message to bring….but hopefully, it will wake many out of their slumber, so that they can serve, worship, and love the LORD with all of their being!!
“Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.” Luke 21:36

MESSAGES:
On 5/1/25, I heard this from the LORD:
“I come back ONE TIME…..NOT TWO!!”
This ‘word’ refers to many who believe that there is a RAPTURE, and then a SECOND COMING…..in other words, some believe that JESUS actually comes back two times.
MESSAGE RECEIVED 5/5/25 while praying:
“Only EIGHT people were saved in the times of Noah…..and it was a ‘sufficient’ number to accomplish MY will! In the same way, there will only be a ‘sufficient amount’ saved from the impending judgment of the world. For EIGHT is symbolic of the small amount….the remnant that will be left before MY FINAL JUDGMENT comes!
Did I not say that the way is narrow, and the only a few find it?
“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.” Matthew 7:13
As wickedness increases, righteousness will decrease….for more, and more succumb to the deceptions that are coming. Most churches will fall into ERROR, and lead the flock astray. They will have a form of godliness, but will DENY its power…..the POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT! (the list below is talking about the believers, not unbelievers!)
“But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 2 Timothy 3:1-5
The numbers of MY true believers are growing less, and less…..not more and more….for false revivals comes, but they will not enlarge MY KINGDOM. For the delusion will be so great, that only those who spend time at MY feet learning from ME will be able to remain in ME.”
END OF MESSAGE
Later, after this message, I asked the LORD about the REVIVALS that are coming that HE has shown me in the past…..and I heard that they will come, but many will fall away because the seed that was planted in their hearts will fall on shallow ground! (Matthew 13:4-6)
This will be part of the great apostasy, where those who proclaim CHRIST, will fall away:
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;” 2 Thess. 2:3
The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the cobra’s den, and the young child will put its hand into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” Isaiah 11:6-9 (NIV)
The above is a scene described by Prophet Isaiah around 700 BC. This scene represents the Millennium of Peace on Earth upon the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. The dead in Christ will rise first when our Lord comes down from heaven. Those still alive (referred to by our Lord as Elect) and left will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet our Lord in the air, and we will be with the Lord forever. This is a scene that Paul saw when he was taken to the third heaven and saw things he was forbidden to tell in detail.
“According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.” 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 (NIV)
4,000 years from Adam to our Lord’s first coming.
2,000 years to our Lord’s second coming.
Total of 6,000 years, which equals 6 Days for God.
This Millennium of Peace will follow as the 7th Day of Rest.
It completes the Seven just before the Final Judgement, and the Serpent of Old will be cast down to the Lake of Fire forever. If you believe in the Bible, you know I did not make this up. I often wonder how the doctrine of the Rapture fits into this plan. Regarding those who claim the Rapture is real, they believe Christians would be secretly taken to be spared from the suffering of the Tribulation before the return of our Lord. They also believe that our Lord would return twice to fit this narrative. The first time must be in secret so the Rapture can make sense. But if the Rapture is real, where do those taken go? They will certainly miss the Millennium of Peace on Earth because the Bible only say the dead in Christ will rise first, and those still alive at the end of the Tribulation will be caught up with those resurrected dead in the clouds to meet our Lord and be with Him forever. Before forever, the Millennium of Peace on Earth will happen first, and those who remain will live for a thousand years with our Lord.
Maybe there is something that I miss.
Many Protestants dislike Catholics, and they claim they know Pope Francis's destination. I thought that decision was only up to God. It is not the servant’s duty to know the Master’s business. I’m not a fan of the Vatican and the so-called fathers, even though I lived in Argentina for a long time while growing up. After our Lord saved me as a sinner, I thought I was a Protestant because my church told me so. Not just a Protestant but also a particular “Denomination” Protestant. It makes sense to use that name because someone got to protest against someone bigger. From a personal perspective, I have found that Evangelical churches are very innovative. They like new stuff and new kinds of teaching. They continuously seek innovation to capture more audience and aim for itching ears. They also know very well what not to teach, even though those are commands from our Lord.
The Catholics do not believe in the Rapture, not before and not now. They believe in the second coming of our Lord. This doctrine of Rapture was invented by John Nelson Darby, a British theologian, in the 1830s. He called it Dispensationalism. He used a prophetic vision from a young woman named Margaret MacDonald. Her “prophetic vision” described Christians to be taken up before the Tribulation. It could be a big problem if the prophetic visions from dreams shared by many on YouTube are taken seriously as new doctrines. Another person from around the same time in the 1830s, Edward Irving, also taught about the secret coming of our Lord. I found little evidence of Protestant churches teaching a pre-tribulation Rapture before Darby and Irving. As usual, many Protestants liked the innovative idea, and it was included in the notes of the Scofield Reference Bible (1909) and widely distributed.
Which seminary has accepted this innovative idea?
After a search online, I found the following seminaries teaching this innovative idea in the US and Canada: Dallas Theological Seminary, Virginia Beach Theological Seminary, Shepherds Theological Seminary, Faith Baptist Bible College and Theological Seminary, Moody Theological Seminary, Tyndale Seminary, Canadian Baptist Seminary, and more.
Who are the students who graduated from these seminaries and are promoting this innovative idea?
As usual, I don’t like to name names. Because there are many famous names, you may have to do your own research on this one.
“He told them this parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees. When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.” Luke 21:29-36 (NIV)
Our Lord said to His disciples that the day of His return would come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. I pray that my family and I will be here on Earth to welcome our Lord’s return. I hope that as disciples, you may want the same and not be taken against your will because He will not delay.
Thank you so much Prophet Elizabeth for always allowing yourself to be used by GOD. This post has really blessed me. May CHRIST continue to pour into you, lead you, and cover you and your family until we go home. Blessings.🙏🏾
