Many believers were taught to expect a secret “rapture” before tribulation—but is that what Scripture teaches? In A Biblical Test of the Pre-Trib Rapture Doctrine, we test this popular view using only the Word of God. Through passages like Matthew 24, 1 Thessalonians 4–5, 2 Thessalonians 2, and Revelation 20, we discover that the resurrection and gathering of the saints occur after the tribulation and before the wrath of YHWH. This teaching reveals a unified biblical timeline—one return, one first resurrection, one gathering—and calls us to endurance rather than escape.Takeaway: Our hope is not removal from trial but resurrection with Messiah Yeshua and faithfulness until His appearing.
From Ezekiel 1 to Revelation 14, Clouds That Are Not Clouds explores how Scripture's “clouds” reveal radiant, structured vessels of divine glory, judgment, and resurrection. Study Daniel 7, Acts 1, and 1 Thessalonians 4 to see YHWH's pattern of divine movement.Takeaway: These clouds are not poetic symbols—they are heavenly realities revealing YHWH's glory and His plan to gather the redeemed.
Pastor Scott Bland, Godspeak's youth pastor, delivered a passionate sermon on God's will for believers: sanctification. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians, he emphasized that sanctification is not optional but a divine command to be set apart, transformed into Christ's image through the Holy Spirit's power. With humor and relatability, Bland shared personal anecdotes, like his wife's medicinal honey remedy, and cultural references, such as neighborhood Halloween displays, to illustrate the battle against worldly conformity. He urged the congregation to rejoice always, pray ceaselessly, and give thanks in all circumstances, aligning with Godspeak's anchored reading program and mission to live biblically in a dark world. The closing prayer called for surrender, trusting God's faithful promise to complete His sanctifying work.Reference Verses:Psalm 24 verse 1, John 6 verse 38, John 14 verse 12, Acts 10 verse 38, Romans 8 verses 11, 28, Romans 12 verse 2, Ephesians 1 verse 15, Philippians 1 verse 21, Philippians 2 verses 12–13, Philippians 4 verse 6, Colossians 1 verse 9, 1 Thessalonians 4 verses 3–8, 1 Thessalonians 5 verses 1–24, Hebrews 4 verse 12, 1 Peter 4 verses 1–2, 19, 1 John 4 verses 4, 18Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information!https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

Should we be expecting a rapture? Is the rapture theory new or old? Do all Christians expect a rapture? Is it a test of orthodoxy, or something less than that?

Sunday Morning Expositional Message
End Times Part I: How Close Are We? | Pastor Travis Hearn | Impact Church What if we're closer than we think? In this powerful and eye-opening message, Pastor Travis Hearn launches a brand new series exploring the signs of the End Times—and what the Bible truly says about the days we're living in. With headlines echoing biblical prophecy, global chaos increasing, and spiritual deception rising, many are asking: How close are we? Through Matthew 24, Daniel 12, and 1 Thessalonians 4, Pastor Travis reveals what Jesus and the prophets foretold: a time marked by wars and rumors of wars, false messiahs, moral collapse, and a knowledge explosion unlike anything in history. From bizarre rapture predictions to the surge of spiritual confusion, this message separates truth from fiction and anchors us in God's unshakable Word. This isn't about fear. It's about preparation. It's not a countdown to panic—it's a wake-up call to purpose. With passion and urgency, this message challenges us to: * Discern deception in a distracted world * Stay spiritually alert while others drift * Share the gospel with urgency and boldness * Live ready for the return of Jesus Christ As the clock of eternity ticks louder, the question isn't if Jesus is coming back. It's are you ready? Don't miss Part 1 of this timely and prophetic series.

THIS EPISODE When is the rapture? WHAT is the rapture? Rob and Vinnie examine 1 Thess 4:13-18, the famous "rapture" passage, to discern what Paul's message to the Thessalonians was. Rob and Vinnie argue that the passage describes the coming of a king to a city. They suggest that Paul encourages the Thessalonians with respect to those in the community who had died by assuring them that they had not missed the Second Coming of Christ, but instead, those who died will be the first to meet Christ in the air in order to escort Him into the city.

We may wonder at times as we look around the world, “Could it get any worse?” It's good to be reminded that Jesus is coming for His church, and if you're a believer you have a glorious future with Him to look forward to. That's the perspective we need to carry through life, no matter how bad things get around us. Pastor James Kaddis will urge us to live with that understanding.

We talk about it often as believers... Jesus loves us! And it's true. But did you realize that we are to love others, as God has loved us? Today on Light on the Hill we get right back to our study of First Thessalonians, and pastor James Kaddis will spotlight verses 9-13. Lately we've been discussing how to have a life that pleases God, and as we'll learn today, loving others is a big part of that life.
