Signs, Sound, and the Final Event | Voice of God with Joseph Z
**You’ve been elected, chosen, called, and made a part of God’s assembly.** Join Joseph Z and Rick Renner as they continue discussing the rapture, the falling away, and the church’s role as a restrainer against lawlessness. You will also uncover prophetic insights for the upcoming season. Rick reveals that things will get darker as we approach the end of the age and that the rapture of the church will occur during a dark moment. However, our Lord Jesus will take His people away just in time before the tribulation begins. He also directs us to 2 Thessalonians 2:3-6 to remind us that the rapture will not happen until the falling away occurs first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition. He clarifies that the falling away is not the same as the rapture; rather, it comes from the Greek word “Apostasia,” which means departure, defection, rebellion, divorce, or mutiny.

He explains that the church is the restrainer against the man of sin, and until the church is removed, the man of sin cannot be revealed. He insists that the identity of the Antichrist will not be known until the church is taken out of the way. Rick further explains that the church is derived from the Greek word “Ekklesia,” meaning those who are called out. One must be invited or called to be part of the Ekklesia. He asserts that the church consists of those with ruling authority who call the shots and make decisions. Therefore, we’ve been called, elected, and chosen to be part of God’s assembly. In conclusion, Joseph shares a prophetic word for the next season, indicating that we will experience four years of redemptive instability that will give rise to revival and reformation.
