Subject: is the rapture time soon? |
Bible Note: Simchat Torah -- I believe that the context of the Matthew 24 verses point to the judgment of Christ's return and not the rapture of believers that is discussed in 1 Thess. 4:13-18. In the Matthew passage, it is as you say, the wicked who are taken and the righteous who are left. But in the 1 Thessalonians passage, it is the righteous who will be taken: the dead in Christ will rise first, then the living will join them to meet the Lord in the air. --Hank |
