Bible Question (short): Pre Tribulation rapture? |
Question (full): In Matthew 24:29-31 the NASB updated. Says "But immediately after the tribulation............ verse 30 And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear...... After studing this chapter and I am reminded this is what Jesus said would happen, how does anyone come up witha pretrib, rapture theory? Was not Darby who in the early 1800's who first come up with this theory? From what I have read the early church Fathers believed Christ would come as Matthew 24:29-31 states. Any coments? |
