Is There A Second Chance After The Rapture? by ayukdaboss(m): 8:35pm On Sep 21, 2014
This question has been really bothering me for years. I've heard some Men of God talk about the "Second chance". The period where those who weren't raptured will face extreme trials/tribulations for some time from the agents of darkness and only those who refuse to accept the 666 mark to get freed from this suffering will get the 2nd ticket.

I'll appreciate anybody here explaining/confirming this for the benefit of me and the entire NL Christian family because it's really important. Thanks in advance.

This slaughter of believers will soon be seen as an act of God’s mercy because certainly not all the post rapture believers will immediately be put to death. Others will have years of suffering ahead of them beginning with horrific natural and supernatural events that poison the air and water and including such an agonizing attack of demonic locusts that men will long for death to release them (Rev. 9:1-6). A third of mankind will die from these judgments alone (Rev. 9:18).

Remember, the Great Tribulation will not have begun yet. Neither will this be the last post rapture chance for Gentiles to be saved. Rev. 14:6-7 speaks of another world wide altar call just after the Great Tribulation begins,

Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language and people. He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”

This one will come right after the mark of the beast is introduced, and will be followed by a warning that taking the mark will result in permanent separation from God and a guaranteed eternity of suffering (Rev. 14:9-11). The judgments of the Great Tribulation will be so severe that if left to run their course no one would survive. For the sake of the elect, the Lord will put an end to them after 3 ½ years, but during that time an unspecified number of new believers will die of beheading for refusing to take the mark.  They’ll be resurrected at the time of the 2nd Coming (Rev. 20:4).

According to my post above,there is a second chance,but can we endure the torture of not accepting the mark of the beast,better pray we make the rapture.

Now tell me will the same chance be given to them that are dead? If no, then ur guess is as good as mine.

So much to think about. I guess I'll settle down and re-read your post as well as read the Scriptures cited.

Last Bullet: I'll prefer being beheaded than face those tribulations. That's if I dont have enough grace to get the first ticket.

Some Bible interpreters believe that there
will be absolutely no chance for salvation after the
Rapture. However, there is no place in the Bible
which says this or even hints to it. There will be many
people who come to Christ during the Tribulation.
The 144,000 Jewish witnesses ( Revelation 7:4) are
Jewish believers. If no one can come to Christ during
the Tribulation, then why are people being beheaded
for their faith ( Revelation 20:4)? No passage of
Scripture argues against people having a chance to
be saved after the Rapture. Many passages indicate
the opposite.
Another view is that those who hear the gospel and
reject it before the Rapture cannot be saved. Those
saved during the Tribulation, then, are those who had
never heard the gospel before the Rapture. The
“proof text” for this view is 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11,
which says the Antichrist will work miracles to
deceive “those who are perishing” and that God
Himself will “send them a powerful delusion” to
confirm them in their unbelief. The reason given is
that “they refused to love the truth and so be
saved” (verse 10). Granted, those who are hard-
hearted toward the gospel before the Rapture are
likely to remain so. And the Antichrist will deceive
many ( Matthew 24:5). But “those who refused to love
the truth” does not necessarily refer to people who
heard the gospel before the Rapture. It could be
anyone who wholly rejects God’s salvation, at any
time. So, there is no clear scriptural evidence to
support this view.

My guy the bible is very confusing, it will say something here and say another there.
GOD judge those that caused this.
That na why I no dey argue bible.
Even the bible said it.
The word is a two edged sharpen sword. If u understand the other side that doesn't mean the other side is not for use

Re: Is There A Second Chance After The Rapture? by LORDI(m): 9:51pm On Sep 21, 2014
According to revelations 20:4 it say's""I saw the thrones and sitting on those thrones were the ones who had been given the right to judge.I also saw those who had their head cut-off,because they had told about jesus and preached GOD's message,the were the same ones who had not worshipped the beast,and let their mark be on their fore head or hands,they will come to life and rule with christ
for 1000 years ",,,,,,meaning after the rapture,these believers refuse the mark of the beast on their fore head.
Re: Is There A Second Chance After The Rapture? by LORDI(m): 10:03pm On Sep 21, 2014
"will there be a
second chance?" use it as an excuse to claim that there is
no pretribulation rapture because "God does not give
second chances". Well, I don't think they can prove that
last assertion, so their supposedly logical denial falls
apart, but the first question is a common concern; "Can I
be saved if I'm left behind?"
I believe that after the rapture, when the antichrist will be
revealed as he, in public, "confirms the covenant with
many" (Dan 9:27) there will be a strong delusion sent.
2 Thess 2:
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord
shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall
destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan
with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in
them that perish; because they received not the love of the
truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong
delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the
truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Rev 3 describes this similarly, describing it as the "hour of
temptation" or "trial" for the world.
Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience,
I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation , which
shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon
the earth.
Therefore, to be saved AFTER the rapture, will require
greater discernment of the truth, a greater trial than is
required today. Today, we do not have to cut through that
particular strong delusion, or trial, since it has not yet
been "sent".
"Persecuted Christians" are NOT doomed. They will be
rewarded, as in, "obtain a better resurrection"!
Hebrews 11:35 Women received their dead raised to life
again: and others were tortured, not accepting
deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings,
yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were
tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about
in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted,
tormented;
38 (Of whom the world was not worthysmiley they wandered in
deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the
earth.
39 And these all, having obtained a good report through
faith, received not the promise:
40 God having provided some better thing for us, that
they without us should not be made perfect.
Rev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and
judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of
them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for
the word of God, and which had not worshipped the
beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark
upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and
reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the
thousand years were finished. This is the first
resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first
resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but
they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign
with him a thousand years.
Clearly, there will be some who come to be Christians
after the rapture of the Church, symbolized by the "man
child" in Rev 12. Rev 12 ends with the phrase that the
"remnant of her seed" who are persecuted in the
tribulation.
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman,
and went to make war with the remnant of her seed ,
which keep the commandments of God, and have the
testimony of Jesus Christ.
So, to answer, yes, you will have a "chance" to "make it
right" if you are not raptured, but I think it will be harder
to "make it right" then, than it is today.

Dis scripture culd b confusin..
D passage talked abt end time signs, wich I might say we re experiencing som nd did not say any abt d beast regime.
So can't really say rapture wuld b afta.
Anoda confusing area is frm verse 42, cous I don't get if wat d scripture means by we don't know wen he wuld come means his 2nd coming is same as d rapture...
Re: Is There A Second Chance After The Rapture? by emmyskies(m): 1:06pm On Sep 22, 2014
Yes. There would be a second chance for people left behind:

"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." (Revelation 20:4)

But this should not be an excuse to be careless to miss rapture. Because you don't know if you'll be alive to witness the event. Because if one dies to face judgement, no second chance. Aside that, what makes you think mortal man like you can stand the wrath of the Almighty GOD? What makes you think you can withstand the suffering from the agents of darkness, when there would be torment and deceit here and there. Number one, imagine no food for a week. See, if you know how horrifying war is, example, if you know what happened in the most destructive war the world has ever witnessed so far(world war II), such evil and pestilence can never be compared to what will happen to mankind in the great tribulation. Hunger, famine, earthquake, tsunami, hurricane, holocaust, torment, torture, infreno, disaster, name them

Prepare for the coming of the master JESUS CHRIST o. Make you dey the presence of GOD dey relax and being hundred percent sure of inheriting the new heaven and the new earth than playing the dicey game which the tendency of you loosing is very high.

Be wise, start now.....
