**WHY ARE MANY PEOPLE QUESTIONING THE RAPTURE?**
Yes the word rapture can not be found in the Bible, but the concept is in 1. Thess 4 and even in Isaiah 26:19-21. So why do some people tell us the rapture is made up? My video will answer this question and warn you of false teachings.

Thank you Debbie Neil Thacker

revelation is literal and where it says like or as, it is a metaphor. for example it is best to look at prophecies such as Isaiah 53 that told us about Yeshua and it was literal. Biblical prophecies are literal. with symbology and metaphorical descriptions of actual events that will take place. I think the issue for most who argue this, as not to be literal just cant imagine how it would play out so they limit the scope to try to make sense of the words.

The Bible Supports the Second Coming of Christ which is often referred to as the Rapture ……but the Bible does not support the idea of a “secret” rapture.
Jimmy Langley
There will be a rapture But after the Trib and before the wrath of God.

The Parable
The parable of the wheat and the tares points out that not all those who claim outwardly to accept the principles of the kingdom of heaven are surrendered to God inwardly. Here, Jesus Himself is the sower of divine truth. The seed He came to sow is “good seed” but an enemy later on planted tares in the field. Satan, is this enemy (Zechariah 3:1). Although people can’t see him they can see his work. The wheat represents the committed believers and the tares the uncommitted ones.
When the servants saw that there were tares among the wheat “…The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn” (v. 28-30). Jesus said because the character of the two groups was not yet mature, it would be dangerous to separate the two. It is not possible to “gather up the tares” without affecting the growth of the wheat. Therefore, both groups should remain coexisting till the end of time.
Janie Jones
First gather together the tares (which are the rapture believers) and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn”
Janie Jones
I say let the tares go in their secret rapture. Because many are called and few are chosen.
Ajayi Solomon Dayo
How do you want the children of perdition to believe you,Rapture is Rapture&Rapture is a must believe to all children of GOD,all christians.In the time of Noah,do they believe him?Our own is to tell the world about Jesus Christ&about His coming back,the Rapture.
Craig Colburn
People are still bewitched believing they exist outside of their bodies and do not understand soul sleep or that NONE are in Heaven, we all are caught up together to meet Christ, NONE go up before the LAST DAY in which the Earth is baptized by fire, as it was by water in the flood.
Salvatore Molitierno
Many of you are just parroting what you’ve been told You must read it for yourself
Steve Snyder
Edith thanks for bringing attention to the passage In Isaiah definitely describes the second coming and resurrection of the dead but I don’t see a pre tribulation rapture
Steve Snyder
Edith Neumaier I hope you read David’s post above from Gary Demar it’s very good
Jim-Pam Malone
The theme in Christ teachings is to hold out to the end. Don’t fall off to the first Christ that appears, for he is the false Christ the Antichrist. All that know this are not tempted by him, that is how we escape the hour of temptation. Many that don’t have enough oil in their lamps ( truth of the word), shall be drawn away by this one. This is why they will pray for mountains to fall on them, they are embarrassed of their actions.
Scottie Toleratethis
the first resurrection by our gathering together unto Him at His Coming,..
Edith Neumaier
Steve Snyder Did read it and it is OK. Unfortunately, He still is not realizing the the great tribulation period which is from Dispensationalism is made up or substituted for the wrath of God. We need to use Biblical words or else we will be mislead. The second coming or the Day of the Lord starts with the rapture followed by the wrath of God. and at the end of the Wrath according to Rev 16 the war of Armageddon will happen outside Jerusalem. Of course Jerusalem will be affected by that as well and everything in Jerusalem and Israel will be destroyed. That’s when 2/3 of the Jews will die. So he brings in another topic. But he recognized nicely that this false doctrine misinterpreted Daniel 9 and the 70 weeks are fulfilled. Again when we investigate Dispensationalism we Have to make sure that everything matches with the Bible. I focused on rapture in my video, but another false teaching is the Great tribulation which does not exist as a time period.
Jennifer Smith
I honestly was thinking the same thing. When I get home from work today I’m going to review my scripture. Plus my grandfather was an ordained minister and I’m gonna look into everything. Because I believe the rapture is for real.
Mark Anthony
It’s a true Biblical teaching, but one, that has been TWISTED by the enemies of Jesus Christ; and as both taught, and understood by the majority in this…last age; is a false doctrine.

Heaven z real hell z real and rapture z real blive or you perish,Jn3 16
Craig Theisen
Matthew 24:29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days” shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30And “then” shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and “then” shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see “the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory”. 31And “he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet”, and “they shall gather together his elect” from “the four winds”, from “one end of heaven to the other”.
Edith Neumaier
I really did not destroy it, it has a KJV which I use sometimes.

GET THE NIV STUDY BIBLE 0-310-92177-5
Jennifer Smith
NIV is the worst version and twists the scriptures around. Best to stick with the old 1914 original KJV. My grandfather always said the Scofield study Bible is the closest, most accurate translation. I trust my grandfather, who was an ordained minister and attended seminary school and studied Greek to best interpret God’s Word.
Lizi Ngwendo
For me I believe rapture is real,..because have had a revelation more than ten times now..keep watch.
Christian de Birka-Fauville
The rapture is not made up. What is made up is the timing as a pre-trib event where there not a single place where it is mentioned as something happening at a moment before Christ Second coming. On the contrary, the rapture mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24 is very clearly indicating the timing: after the Tribulation when He comes to take His Kingdom.
Dy Gist
The great tribulation is coming, the reign of the antichrist shall usher in the great tribulation.
And it was given him to rule only for 42months Revelation 13:5
But during the time of his reigning the Christians will be his most target because it was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. Revelation 13:7
Because many Christians shall refuse his mark, the number of his name 666, his image. This why it shall be so punitive because many shall be killed for refusing the beast mark and, many will be in prison, and punished. Revelation 13:16-18
Revelation 13:10, He that leads into captivity shall go into captivity: he that kills with sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints
Because it was not given to the saints to fight back at that moment because their hands must not be stain with blood of the wicked because it is the hour of a great purification and final test.
Daniel 12:10, Many shall be purified, and made white, and tired; but the wicked shall do wickedly and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
During the time of the great tribulation, those that shall be appointed to tortured the saints will think they are doing the right thing including the enemies of CHRIST and all those that shall support the beast. But their own suffering, torment, punishment, shall be forever and ever.
The 42months then will be like thousand year in the eyes of the saints because the punishment and suffering they will all pass through will be so punitive, extremely punitive.
But JESUS said, Be you faithful to death, and I will give you a crown of life. Revelation 2:10 the last paragraph.
Again, this is where CHRIST made mention of the hour of temptation which shall come upon all the whole world. to try them that dwell upon the earth. (The great tribulation)
Revelation3:10 the last paragraph
And in Matthew 24:21 JESUS made it clear that there shall be a great tribulation.
For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no nor ever shall be.
Verse 22, And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Truly if GOD does not shortened the day, who knows maybe some Christians would not be able to endure the pain anymore.
Daniel 12:12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
If you continue reading, CHRIST says if any man say to you, lo, here is Christ, or there believe it not, that’s means during the reign of the beast some false prophets will come out in mass to deceive Christians that CHRIST has come, oh He’s in somewhere there come he will save you from this tribulation, oh come and see Jesus is there he will protect you from the this going tribulation, and they will say He’s in the chamber, or there and here since they will also know that the Christians are expecting the LORD JESUS CHRIST to come to take them home, and they will want to use that opportunity to deceive many Christians and make them missed the rapture but JESUS said,
” Behold, I have told you be” Mathew 24:25.
In Matthew 24:29, our LORD JESUS CHRIST made it clear that He shall come after the TRIBULATION.
Also in Mark 13:24
Edith Neumaier
Great tribulation is here. The wolfs in sheep’s clothing are every where. They entered out churches, seminaries, and are on TV and every media. They have taught us false doctrine and are misleading us from the truth. They steal souls in the name of Satan every day. Why would Satan need to kill saints? He is much more successful deceiving people. People wake up and put on the full Armor of God. Eph 6
