Events Preceding The Rapture

I recently asked you about the second coming, actually what I had meant had been what things must take place before the rapture of the church.

Q. I recently asked you about the second coming, actually what I had meant had been what things must take place before the rapture of the church. I understand Matthew 24:34 about the generation of 70 years, but what about the 2012 magnetic polar reversal, wouldn’t that have to have a key in the tribulation, if so, wouldn’t that mean that the rapture would have to happen about a year or two before that?

A. The only thing holding up the Rapture is the arrival of the full number of Gentiles into the church (Romans 11:25). There is no date we much reach, and no other prophecy that must come to pass.

As far as the Magnetic Polar Reversal predicted for 2012 is concerned, I believe it’s part of the 6th Seal judgment. If so, the Church will be gone well before it takes place.
