Bible Question:
What verses are the ones that talk about the rapture? I've never been able to find them...thanks! -Love in the One who invented love- orvee |
Bible Answer: orvee First the word rapture does not appear in the Bible. However many people think 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 describes the rapture rather than the second coming of Christ. Mainly because it talks about Jesus in the air rather than touching down on earth. Also many think 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 give the overall picture and reason behind the rapture. To take the church out of the world thus allowing Satan the unrestrained ability to wreck havoc upon the earth. You also might want to do some searches using quick search over to the right on "rapture" this subject has been discussed at great length. EdB |
