God could warn us exactly seven days before the return of our Lord Jesus Christ or before the rapture

Dear brother in Christ, in this message I want to expose briefly a personal revelation.

We go back in time until Noah.

God told him he would destroy all mankind and he ordered him to build an ark. (Genesis 6:13-14).

God told Noah that he would bring a flood. (Genesis 6:17)

With all, Noah did not know when exactly this flood would come. But when Noah finished his preparations, God talked to Noah again. He told Noah to come into the ark. (Genesis 7:1)

Our key passage is in Genesis 7:4 : "For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made."

Or that is, when only seven days were left God warned Noah! From that moment on Noah already knew the exact day of the flood!

And Noah made the last preparations: he went into the ark together with his family and the animals. (Genesis 7:7-9)

And God fullfilled what he had told to Noah. After seven days the flood started: "And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth." (Genesis 7:10)

Beloved brother, you will already have heard of the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, or of the so called rapture. I do not want to enter here into all the details of these future events, neither into the polemic about at what moment exactly this rapture will take place, that is to say, before, in the middle of, or at the end of the great tribulation. You can find many writings and opinions about these themes.

My point here is the following: based on what God did for Noah, warning him exactly seven days before the start of the flood, maybe we could conclude that God would also warn us christians exactly seven days before the return of the Lord Jesus, or before the rapture.

I know well that the Word of God establishes that nobody knows of the day and hour of the return of Jesus or the rapture. (Matthew 24:36). I am also not giving you a date already.

But the Word also says that God will do nothing without warning his servants the prophets beforehand. (Amos 3:7)

And if it is certain that until now we do not know the day, could it not be that God will warn his faithfull seven days before the great event, just like he did for Noah?

Do you believe it?

He who has ears, let him hear, Jesus said.
