The one thing I MUST always point out, is that these are ALL PROPHESIED events. Prophesies given to the prophets of Israel. HOWEVER, we can not, INTO them, lump the UN-Prophesied Body of Christ, or this current Dispensation of the Mystery, which was FIRST given to the Apostle Paul by the RISEN Christ. Because the Body of Christ was a Mystery, that was HID IN GOD.

Regardless of what the preachers, leaders, and pastors teach, or do not teach, let each of us, who are saved by the Grace of God, be established by the preaching of Jesus Christ, ‘ACCORDING TO THE REVELATION OF THE MYSTERY,’ which had been hid from all men until the risen Christ revealed it to the Apostle Paul and gave him his Gospel by revelation (Galatians 1:11-13 ; Ephesians 3:1-4 ).

If we really believe that the prophesied spiritual‑political Kingdom of Heaven has been postponed and that the clock of prophecy really stopped with the fall of Israel, after the Apostle Paul’s warning in Acts 13:40-41 and the great turn of Acts 13:46 , let us be sure that the Lord will have the Church of the Mystery (unprophesied) safe, and in Heaven, before the awful time described in Luke 21:25-33 ; Matthew 24 ; and Revelation 6-13 .

Surely the ‘MYSTERY’ should convince any spiritual, intelligent student of the Scriptures that members of the Body of Christ, will NOT be here on earth during the prophesied period called ‘the Great Tribulation.’

AND...We should not expect anything but confusion, in any explanation that the Church will be saved from the Great Tribulation, from Bible teachers who teach that ‘the Dispensation of the Mystery’ (Ephesians 3:9 ), ‘the dispensation of the Grace of God for Gentiles’ (Ephesians 3:1-4 ), began on the day of the Pentecost several weeks after the death and resurrection of Christ.

The great events foretold by Joel, David, Moses, Samuel and all the prophets, including Amos, and proclaimed by Peter and the Eleven, ‘the times of the restitution of all things’ (Acts 3:19-21 ), had nothing to do with God’s purpose and Grace given to Gentiles in Christ before the world began (2 Timothy 1:9 ).

The Grace that Peter preached, he wrote, was prophesied Grace. (1 Peter 1:10-11 ). There was NO mystery in what God began, or continued, with Peter and the Eleven on the day of Pentecost. Little wonder then that Pre-Tribulation brethren, who teach that the Mystery began with Acts 2 , are becoming Post-Tribulationists. If the Apostle Paul told the truth, that the MYSTERY was revealed to him, surely it was not revealed to him BEFORE he was saved. The Apostle Paul told Gentiles to be saved by Grace and be raised up to sit with Christ where He is, in the Heavenlies. The Apostle Peter preached to Israel to repent and God would send Christ back to earth where they were, in their land. (Ephesians 2:5-8 , and Acts 3:19-21 ). Even a babe in Christ should know the difference between the ‘Restitution’ and the ‘Rapture.’
