Bible Question: Is there a time span between now and the rapture, or is it unknown when it's supposed to happen? |
Bible Answer: RAPTURE, THE The Last Day "Christ's gathering together, the deliverance of, and rescue of the true living church (by His angelic "reapers") to Himself in the clouds at His second coming (parousia), an event that occurs on the last day when the day of the Lord commences, between the sixth seal (the sign of the end of the age ) and the seventh seal (the day of the Lord). The Rapture cannot occur until sometime during the second half of the seventieth week , when God cuts short the great tribulation by Antichrist . "But of that [exact] day and hour no one knows." PREWRATH RAPTURE, THE "The position that the true church will be raptured when the great tribulation by Antichrist, inspired by Satan, is cut short by God's day-of-the-Lord wrath, (Matt. 24:22) which will occur between the sixth and seventh seals of Revelation, sometime during the second half of the seventieth week. (cf. Rev. 7:9-17) The persecution associated with the great tribulation of Antichrist is viewed as the wrath of Satan, whereas the events that follow beginning with the seventh seal, are considered the wrath of God."(http://www.signministries.org/glossary.htm) |
