The Redeemed Of The Lord Will Also Have A Close Encounter Of The Fourth Kind When The Trump Of God Sounds And The Dead In Christ Rise And We Sail From This Earth In The Rapture Of The Church!
Part Two—
Paul told the Corinthians he was showing them a “mystery.” The word “mystery” meant something, which had not been revealed before— not something that was incapable of being understood. The mystery he explained to them was that we would be changed at the last trump and this change would occur “in the twinkling of an eye.”
Now what does “the twinkling of an eye” mean? It was the quickest dimension of time Paul could explain. The “batting of an eye” means, in the neurological sense, that an impulse has gone form the eye to the brain and back in a complete circuit. Bu the “twinkling of an eye” is the time it takes the impulse to go from the eye to the brain without returning. So a twinkling is onehalf the length of time of the batting of an eye.
Paul said that one moment you’ll be standing here on this earth, and in the twinkling of an eye—so fast that you’ll blink and before you can open your eyes again—in that fraction of a second, you’d be standing in the clouds in the presence of the Son of God!
