Bible Question:
Greetings! I noticed that there were not many questions today, so how about this one for discussion? Is there any particular verse or passage in Revelation which can be identified with the Rapture? In your response, you might note whether you are Pre, Mid, Post, or No Rapture. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
Bible Answer: Greetings Tim! “Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.” It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. Then he said* to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’” And he said* to me, “These are true words of God.” (Revelation 19:7-9 NASB) In the Book of Revelation, I believe that these verses would be the closest verses that can be identified with the Rapture of the church. I would most likely have to classify myself as a "pre-tribulation" thinker, since Rev. 3:10 and John 14:1-3 seem to indicate that believers will be kept from the actual hour of testing that is coming on the whole world. I am also in favor of the "pre-trib" view since I see several problems with the "post-tribulation" view. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Nolan |
