One taken, one left

The Wheat and tares

The Sheep and goats

You’ve probably read the passages in Matthew chapters 13, 24 and 25 pertaining to those events, but what do they mean and when do they take place.

Greetings, I'm Dr. Paul Felter. 
Welcome to my video-podcast where I expose church fallacies and flawed Christian traditions with Bible truth. 

We let the Bible speak for itself. 

Jesus had something to say about the traditions of the Pharisees. 

"And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. ... Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye." - Mark 7:9, 13 KJB

The same applies to the church today. We have church traditions being passed off as Bible truth and if you question those traditions, you are called a heretic.  But those bogus traditions have the same affect as the traditions of the Pharisees, they make void, “none effect,” the word of God. Those that believe and promote church traditions over Bible truth negate the scripture and its power to change the lives of those that believe in Jesus. An example of bogus church tradition is our first passage, the one taken and one left, supposed by many to be the Rapture.

Let’s read the “one taken and one left” passages in Matthew chapter 24.

But before we get to that passage, you need to understand Matthew chapter 24. Jesus was giving a prophecy briefing to His disciples on the Mount of Olives. They asked Him “what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?” Matthew 24:3.

From verse 4 through verse 28 of chapter 24, Jesus gives a high level overview of the conditions and events of the 7-year Tribulation. Verses 29 through 31 declare Jesus second coming at the end of the Tribulation. From that point on through the end of chapter 25 Jesus describes events that accompany His return using both narrative and parables.

So, Matthew chapters 24 and 25 pertain to Israel enduring the 7-year Tribulation and the judgments that follow Jesus’ return.
