1 | Origin of Rapture of the Church doctrine | Matt 24:3 | stjones | 20669 | ||
Thanks, Prayon; I agree with your explanaion of the questions in this passage. But I'm still confused. I think I didn't make my question clear. Kalos asked about the emergence of the doctrine of the Rapture of the Church. Kalos asked, in effect, what changed in the last 150 years or so that caused this doctrine to emerge when it had not been articulated in the first 1850 years of the church. You replied (I think to that question) that "We have not seen it in the past 2000 years because Christ did not open our eyes to see it until now". I understood this to mean that Christ opened our eyes to the doctrine of the Rapture in the last 150 years. So if I understood your reply correctly, my question addressed this relatively recent eye-opening by Christ: "How was this revealed? To whom?" If I didn't understand your reply correctly, just say so and I'll go back to playing with the cat. Thanks again. Peace and grace, Steve |

Further input.......................... Hello Steve, What Serenetime gave was correct but incomplete. John Nelson Darby also independently formulated a doctrine concerning the rapture. Many have said that Darby learned it from MacDonald, but this is not the case. He did visit her once and rejected her as being unsound biblically. Steve |

Hi, Steve; Thanks for the info. I've heard of Darby, of course, but such was (is) my ignorance of such matters that I made no connection between the rapture and dispensationalism. Peace and grace, Steve |
