Firstfruits and Harvest - Paul Cozza - Bog

The rapture of Christians to be with the Lord at the end of this age has been a point of much contention over the years. In this regard, the commonly held doctrines of pre-tribulation and post-tribulation rapture are greatly deficient. They especially miss the most important aspect of the rapture - the growth and maturity of the divine life within the believers. The Lord is quite clear in His speaking that the end of this age will occur when it is time to "harvest" the believers from the earth.As it is with most any crop, some portion of the fruit ripens before the majority does. And so, with the believers there are both the firstfruits and the harvest. This book explores the great differences between the raptures of the firstfruits and harvest in detail, comparing the time, place, and various other aspects of their being taken to be with the Lord.
