There are two over-arching imperatives in the New Testament, namely be saved (Acts 2:40) and be holy (1Peter 1:15-16). Together, the two are a unit because they comprise the bonafide and verifiable recovery from the Fall (Ephesians 2:1-10; Hebrews 6:9). Along with being biblical, this is also logical. If the Fall of mankind plunged us into the abyss of sin and corruption, then recovery from the Fall should involve remission of sins and regeneration of the old nature, resulting in a new man (Ephesians 4:22-24; Romans 12:1-2; 1Corinthians 6:9-11; 2Corinthians 5:17). In other words, salvation should restore us to being upright again according to God’s original design for our race. This is, in fact, the salvation Christ died to bring us and is the very essence of Christianity (1Thessalonians 4:7). Those who humbly receive it become a part of Christ’s blood-bought, Spirit-filled Church. They have taken on the name of Jesus in baptism and make up the Bride of Christ. They are the true evangelism force of Christianity who have obeyed the saving tenets of the Great Commission and faithfully represent Christ’s Gospel to the world (Revelation 22:17).
In short, obedience to the plan of salvation revealed on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:37-39) and walking daily in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16; Romans 14:17; Ephesians 5:9; Jude 20-21) is what Christ requires for us to be in the Rapture of His glorious Church (Ephesians 5:27). I think the Apostle Paul expressed this most succinctly in 2Thessalonians 2:13. “But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.”
I wish everyone believed and taught the fulness of the Gospel message so that more souls would be ready for the Rapture. But you can be ready. I hope you will find an Apostolic Church. You can’t afford to miss the soon coming of the Lord. The Rapture is not just a means of escaping the worst events ever to come on the earth (Matthew 24:21; Revelation 9:6), it will be the greatest moment imaginable when the saints of the ages meet their Lord in the air and go off to live with Him forever in the Holy City. It is our hope (John 14:1-3; 1Thessalonians 4:13-18).
