Bible Question: Where did the word Rapture come from? It's not in the KJV. |
Bible Answer: Dear KLB...The word does not appear (in context) in the Bible. But what word would you use to describe this seen... 1Thes4:17 "After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." And just to help, here is the definition of "rapture".... 1 a : a state or experience of being carried away by overwhelming emotion b : a mystical experience in which the spirit is exalted to a knowledge of divine things 2 : an expression or manifestation of ecstasy or passion synonyms see ECSTASY God Bless....Jensen |
