12-27-21 The Pre-Tribulation Rapture Sequences
The Pre-Tribulation Rapture Sequences - By Jeff Van Hatten - https://www.raptureready.com/2021/11/07/the-pre-tribulation-rapture-sequences-by-jeff-van-hatten/
Psalm 104:19 – “Yahweh made the moon for the seasons; the sun knows the place of its setting.”
Isaiah 45:18 – “Yahweh formed the Earth and made it; he established it; he created it not a chaos . . .”
1 Corinthians 14:33-40 – “Yahweh is not the author of disorder or chaos . . . therefore all things should be done decently and in order.”
I am not the only person who looks for patterns in scripture. Order, arrangement, and patterns are all part of Yahweh’s way of doing things – he is not the god of chaos. One of those patterns I’ve discovered is the pattern of Harpazo, Heralding, and Havoc; Removal, Revelation, and Ruination; or if you prefer, Departure, Direction, and Destruction, all of which describe a Pre-Tribulation rapture.
Harpazo / Rapture / Departure
The primary witness who represents the Bride of Yeshua is raptured out – taken from the earth – removed from the coming disaster.
Heralding / Revelation / Direction
Other individuals continue to minister to the people and warn of coming disaster.
Havoc / Ruination / Devastation
The period of destruction begins, but some are protected during the disaster period.
The Sequence Representatives
After every bodily rapture, departure, or harpazo, there is a period I call a period of continued warnings and teachings, of continued revelation and direction. At the end of that period comes the time of destruction. These patterns follow the rapture of the following:
Enoch
Elijah
Yeshua
The Bride of Yeshua
Let’s take a closer look:
Pattern One: Enoch
Genesis 5:24 – “Enoch walked with Yahweh; and he was not, for Yahweh took him.”
Enoch represents the Bride of Yeshua, who is raptured to Heaven to be with Yahweh before disaster strikes. Methuselah and Lamech represent those who continue to minister to the people before the time of disaster – the flood. The people who perish in the flood represent those who refuse to listen to Yahweh’s warnings. Noah represents the remnant Jews who are protected during the time of the disaster, during the time of the Tribulation.
The Pattern:
• Harpazo/Removal/Departure: Enoch, after witnessing for over 300 years, is raptured out – he is taken from the earth – removed from the coming disaster.
• Heralding/Revelation/Direction: Other individuals continue to minister to the people for 670 years and warn of coming disaster.
• Havoc/Ruination/Destruction: The flood begins, but Noah is protected during the disaster period.
Pattern Two: Elijah
2 Kings 2:11 – “Elijah went up by a whirlwind to Heaven.”
Elijah represents the Bride of Yeshua, who is raptured to Heaven to be with Yahweh before disaster strikes. Elisha represents those who continue to minister to the people before the time of disaster – the time of judgment against Israel. The people of both Northern Israel and Southern Judah who are forcibly removed represent those who refuse to listen to Yahweh’s warnings and who suffer or perish during the time of judgment. The Jews who willingly traveled to Babylon represent the remnant who are protected during the time of the Tribulation.
The Pattern:
• Harpazo/Removal/Departure: Elijah witnesses for years, then is raptured out – taken from the earth – removed from the coming disaster.
• Heralding/Revelation/Direction: Elisha and others continue to minister to the people and warn of coming disaster.
• Havoc/Ruination/Destruction: The destruction of both Northern Israel and Southern Judah begins, but many Jews are protected during the disaster period by traveling to Babylon.
Pattern Three: Yeshua
Mark 16:19 – “So then, after Yeshua had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of Yahweh.”
Luke 24:51 – “As Yeshua was blessing them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.”
Acts 1:9 – “And when Yeshua had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.”
Yeshua is raptured, the disciples continue to minister to the people for around 40 years and warn of coming disaster, then the Temple is destroyed, but many believers are protected during the disaster period by traveling to other lands and nations.
The Pattern:
• Harpazo/Removal/Departure: Yeshua and the Holy Ones who came out of the graves witness for forty days after his resurrection, then Yeshua is raptured out – taken from the earth – removed from the coming disaster.
• Heralding/Revelation/Direction: Peter, the Apostles, and others continue to minister to the people and warn of coming disaster.
• Havoc/Ruination/Destruction: The destruction of the Temple takes place in 70AD, and the Jews are scattered to all nations of the earth, but many believers are protected during the disaster period by traveling to other lands and nations before the Temple falls.
Pattern Four: The Bride of Yeshua
2 Thessalonians 2:3 – “Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the departure comes first.”
The removal of the Bride of Yeshua takes place first, then the lawless one, or man of lawlessness, is revealed. The 144,000 witnesses, angels in the sky, and the Two Witnesses continue to minister, and finally, The Wrath of Yahweh is fully poured out upon the unbelieving during the time of Great Tribulation.
The Pattern:
• Harpazo/Removal/Departure: The Bride of Yeshua is raptured.
• Heralding/Revelation/Direction: The Bride herself may be given forty days to witness just as Yeshua and the Holy Ones did before the lawless one, or man of lawlessness, is revealed. The Two Witnesses of Revelation, the 144,000 Jewish evangelists, and the angels in mid-heaven all continue to minister to the people and warn of coming disaster.
• Havoc/Ruination/Destruction: The Great and Terrible day begins, but the remnant Jews who escape to the mountains are protected during the remainder of the disaster period.
Pattern Five: The Moedim
Numbers 10:1-ff – “Blow the trumpets, gather together, and be saved from your enemies.” (Synopsis)
The moed of Yom Teruah represents the day of the resurrection of the righteous dead and the taking up of the living righteous, the day of hiding and concealment (The Rapture) before the time of the Tribulation. Many will perish or suffer in the tribulation period and represent those who refused to listen to Yahweh’s warnings before the rapture took place. Yom Kippurim represents the Tribulation period and time of protection for those who are willing to accept it. The people who escape to the mountains when the abomination of desolation is revealed represent the remnant who are protected during the remaining time of the Tribulation.
The Pattern:
• Harpazo/Removal/Departure: Yom Teruah (the Feast of Trumpets) is the first moedim that is yet to be fulfilled. The dead are raised, and the Bride of Yeshua is raptured (1 Corinthians 15:52, 1 & 2 Thessalonians) – removed from the coming disaster – the Day of Yahweh, Daniel’s Seventieth Week, the Time of Jacob’s Trouble, the seven years of tribulation.
• Heralding/Revelation/Direction: The Two Witnesses (Revelation 11:3), the 144,000 Jewish evangelists (Revelation 7:4), and the angels in mid-heaven (Revelation 8:13 and Revelation 14:6) all continue to minister to the people and warn of coming disaster.
• Havoc/Ruination/Destruction: Yom Kippurim is the second moedim that is yet to be fulfilled. The Great and Terrible day begins, but a remnant is protected during the remainder of the disaster period.
Conclusions
All that Yahweh has made and ordained has a pattern. The sun, moon, and stars follow the courses he has established. The Earth orbits the sun. The seed is planted, grows, and produces more seed. The patterns of rapture before tribulation – in other words, a pre-tribulation rapture – is another pattern that can be clearly seen throughout scripture.
Order, arrangement, and patterns are all part of Yahweh’s way of doing things. Yahweh is consistent, orderly, unchanging, and the scriptures display a consistent pattern of rapture before tribulation. The pattern is Harpazo, Heralding, and Havoc; Removal, Revelation, and Ruination; or if you prefer, Departure, Direction, and Destruction.
This pattern is consistent for Enoch, Elijah, Yeshua, the Bride of Yeshua, and the Moedim. The rapture happens first, a time of continued warning ensues, then the disaster strikes.
