Rev 1:7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.
1. Coming with the clouds
At Rapture, during the great heavenly Blackout, our Lord will come with His heavenly hosts resembling the falling stars from the sky. Trumpets will sound heralding the coming of the King. As the stars draw nearer and nearer, they will become visibly bigger to the naked eyes. At the end of the trumpet sound, all eyes will see our Lord Jesus on the clouds. Immediately, His elects will rise to meet Him there.
Mark 13:24-26 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory."
Note - this heralding trumpet is not the same as the seven trumpets of judgment in Rev 8
2. They who pierced Him
At Rapture, Jesus will pour His grace to all Israelites and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who will repent of their sins for crucifying Him when they see Him with His pierced wounds on the clouds. This will be the 144,000 Israelites saved in Rev 7.
Zech 12:10 "And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn."
3. Tribes of the earth will mourn
Before Rapture, the whole world has heard the gospel of Jesus and His coming. So when these unbelievers see the reality of Rapture, they will regret for rejecting Jesus and missing their salvation. They will mourn because they know that it is already too late for they have taken the mark of the beast 666 and only damnation and the lake of fire await them.
Mat 24:30 "Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory."
Rev 1:8: "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End," says the Lord, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
Our Lord repeatedly assures us that He alone is the Almighty God for He is the Beginning (Alpha) and is also the End (Omega). He knows everything and He is in control of all things from the beginning to the end. So trust Him and fear nothing.
Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath
Mark 2:27-28 And He said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath."
We have 38 (Orang Asli) churches for the aborigines deep in the mountainous jungle. We thank Jesus that He is the Lord of the Sabbath and has made the Sabbath for man so that Sabbath can now be any day of the week.
With a limited number of pastors (7), we have no other choice but to hold our worship services (Sabbath) everyday of the week starting from Sunday to Saturday. Worship services will start as soon as we arrive. During the rainy season with the muddy roads being soft, slippery and hazardous worship services are often delayed for up to one or two days.
The Lord's Day
Rev 1:9-10a I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet...
John recorded Sunday as the Lord's Day in connection with the resurrection day of our Lord Jesus Christ. Unlearned and misled Christians attribute Sunday to be the day of the devil or 666. This shows their faithlessness in our Almighty God and our resurrected Lord.
Our early fathers (council of bishops) instituted the Lord's Day as the day of rest for Christians to worship Him in unity.
