Dear Listeners:   This week once again, though briefly, we examine this hocus pocus doctrine of a pre-tribulation rapture.  The Scriptures have it not in them, Revelation 7 "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes,[cleansed] and palms in their hands;[prayers of thanksgiving].  And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.....These are they which came out of [the] great tribulation, and have washed their robes,[coverings] and made them white[clean hearts] in the blood of the Lamb.....And when he had opened the seventh seal,[the last one] there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God;  and to them were given seven trumpets. And another angel came and stood at the alter, having a golden censer;  and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer [it] with the prayers of all saints upon the golden alter which was before the throne.  And the smoke of the incense, [which came] with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.  And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the alter, and cast [it] into the earth:  and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.  And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound...

Love always and in everything; Bro. Joel
