Re 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
Either the Bible is just a old book with no relevance for today or it is indeed the very Word of God.
Or from Joseph Seiss in his excellent commentary on the Book of Revelation.
But no true Christian has any right to count on dying. There is
something that is more certain than death. There are some who will never
die. Those who are alive and waiting for Christ when he comes, shall never
taste of death. They shall be “taken” as Enoch was taken, as Elijah was
taken, as Romanists allege that the Virgin Mary was taken, and as some
say the Apostle John was taken. The words of Paul upon this point are too
plain to be misunderstood. He says, “The Lord himself shall descend from
heaven with a shout,… and we which are alive and remain shall be caught
if someone could reveal to one, things that are shortly to take place, ie soon. I think perhaps we would be interested.
