(Comments by Joan Boney)
When the events of the future unfold, we, the elect, know 3 scriptures which give us great faith in God and great endurance of that which is to come.
***
* Jesus will destroy the apostate church when HE comes in the clouds to raise the dead in Christ and to remove the elect of God from this present earth.
Jesus will destroy the apostate churches.
***
* For the elect's sake, those difficult days will be shortened.
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
If it seems we can't hang on any longer, remember those days shall be shorted by God, so hang on.
***
* The elect of God will be gathered and taken off this earth by the angels before this earth is destroyed by God.
Matthew 24:31 And HE (Jesus) shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
The elect of God will be taken into the air to meet Jesus and the resurrected from the dead in Christ.
The elect of God will be gathered and removed by the angels from this present earth before this earth is destroyed.
***
I suggest we meditate solidly on these 3 scriptures to give us hope from God, as a sure anchor, and also endurance in that which may end up being difficult days.
