The First coming rapture reference Thessalonians 4:13-18

The Second coming of Jesus to Israel reference scripture: Isaiah 63:1-5

This special episode of Awakening Acts Radio, taught by Senior Pastor Louis Lupo, unveils one of the most profound mysteries in all of Scripture: the two comings of the Messiah — first as the Lamb of God and soon as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah.

With clarity and deep reverence, Pastor Lupo explains how the first coming of Christ fulfilled prophecy through His sacrifice at Calvary — bringing redemption, grace, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Yet the Word also declares a second coming, when the same Jesus will return in glory and power to judge the nations and establish His righteous Kingdom.

Listeners will learn how these two comings reveal the full plan of God for salvation and judgment, and why this generation must urgently prepare. This broadcast calls every believer, every church, and every nation to repentance and holiness — to separate from the world and await the Bridegroom with pure garments.

Key Scriptures:

• Isaiah 61:1–2 – The prophetic distinction between the “acceptable year of the Lord” and “the day of vengeance of our God.”
• Luke 4:17–21 – Jesus reads Isaiah’s prophecy but stops midway, marking the first and second advents.
• Revelation 19:11–16 – The return of Christ as the conquering King.
• Acts 1:10–11 – “This same Jesus… shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.”

Themes:

• The humility of the first coming vs. the glory of the second
• The Bride’s preparation for the Rapture
• The call to holiness in the final hour
• The prophetic timeline of redemption and judgment
