AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we who are alive and remain [on the earth] will simultaneously be caught up (raptured) together with them [the resurrected ones] in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord! [John 14:3; 1 Cor 15:52; 2 Cor 5:8; Phil 1:23; Col 3:4] |
Bible Question:
This is one question that I was asked regarding the Rapture that I could not answer. If I am in a single motor airplane and there is only one pilot and there are 18 people on board who don't know how to fly and the rapture takes place while we are in midflight and the pilot is raptured and everyone else is left behind does this mean everyone on board will die in a crash? Who will fly the plane? Help! How do I answer this? |
Bible Answer: I believe although I don't really have any bible proof. Its just a thought. I believe God will some how prevent the planes from crashing as well as the other things that could happen when the rapture takes place. I think that if he wouldn't it could be called a judgment and I don't see anywheres i the bible it mentions that God would use the "catching away" of the church as a punishment for the unbielievers. (As mentioned in the book of Revelation.) This is just my thought and opinion. I do not dogmatically believe this. |
