The Interpretation of the Second Epistle of John
We derive our interpretation from the structure found in the Bible, especially in the New Testament. Already under "The structure of the Bible" we graphically show that the 2nd Letter of John must be assigned to the third tour on the post-route of Asia Minor. The first round describes the time from Pentecost to the Reformation. The second round indicates the time from the Reformation until the Rapture, and the last round refers to the time after the Rapture until the visible return of the Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ.
After the Rapture, many Christians will be deeply shocked because they had hoped to participate in the Rapture. Why are many left behind? In the Epistle to the Hebrews we are told some reasons for this. The most important reason for the Lord, however, is that those left behind lived their relationship with him only as a Sunday encounter. There can hardly be talk of a familiar relationship. Now the Hebrews, as we will call them from now on, must learn to deal with one another in a completely new way. This includes not only the head, but also the heart. Jesus is only interested in a cordial relationship. The Lord wants the first place and no other place at all.
