The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 224

Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them. Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. (Psalm 68:18-19) 171 The Old Testament saints has gone into His Presence, paradise done away. And the Old Testament saints ascended up, at His loud voice, when He screamed and give up the ghost; because (why?) the Sacrifice, the propitiation of their sins, that they had waited on, believing that perfect Lamb was coming. They had offered the Sacrifice, the Lamb. And when He died and yielded up the ghost, He screamed with a loud voice, and the Old Testament saints awoke. Watch the shout and the voice over here, the same thing at His Coming. See? “Yielded up the ghost.” And when He did, the Sacrifice was perfect, and paradise emptied out. And the Old Testament saints came to the earth again, walked around on earth, and entered in with Him, at His rapture. 172 David said, over there, “Lift up, ye everlasting gates; and be ye lifted up.” “He led captive captive, give gifts unto men,” and the Old Testament saints went in with Him. 173 They said, “Who is this King of righteousness?” 174 “The Lord of Glory, mighty in host.” Mighty host, here they come in, marching. “Jesus led captivity captive,” and here He comes, with the Old Testament saints. And went in the new gates up There, and said, “Lift up, ye everlasting gates; and be ye lifted up; and let the King of Glory come in.” The voice come from the inside, said, “Who is the King of Glory?” 175 “The Lord mighty in battle.” The gates flew open. “And Jesus, a Conqueror, led captive captive,” them that had believed on Him, and the Word had come to them. There, the Old Testament saints laying in there, waiting, “He led captive captive; ascended on High,” took the Old Testament saints and went in. There is one Rapture, already passed. 176 The next Rapture takes place is (Second Thessalonians) for the Church, the Bride to be resurrected, to be raptured into Glory. “We which are alive and remain,” that’s the bodies left on earth, “will not prevent or hinder them which are asleep. For the trumpet of God shall sound first, and the dead in Christ shall rise.” See? “And we which alive and remain shall caught up together with them.” 65-1204 - "The Rapture" Rev.
