10 reasons why the pre-tribulation rapture is true


Here are 10 reasons why the pre-tribulation rapture is true:

  1. The rapture is a separate event from the second coming of Christ. This is supported by passages such as 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, which describes the rapture as a secret event that will take place "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet." The second coming of Christ, on the other hand, is described as a public event that will be visible to all (Matthew 24:29-30).

  2. The church will not be caught up into the tribulation. This is supported by passages such as Revelation 3:10, which says that the church will be "kept from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world." The tribulation is a time of great suffering and judgment for the world, but the church will be spared from this.

  3. The rapture will occur before the antichrist is revealed. This is supported by passages such as 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8, which describes the antichrist as being revealed after the rapture. The rapture will remove the church from the world, which will allow the antichrist to rise to power without any opposition from Christians.

  4. The rapture will occur before the seven-year tribulation period. This is supported by passages such as Daniel 9:27, which says that the tribulation will begin after the antichrist makes a covenant with Israel. The rapture will remove the church from the world before the tribulation begins, so that Christians will not have to go through it.

  5. The rapture is imminent. This means that it could happen at any time. This is supported by passages such as 1 Thessalonians 5:2, which says that the day of the Lord will come "like a thief in the night." No one knows the day or hour of the rapture, so Christians should be prepared for it at all times.

  6. The rapture is a comfort to Christians. It gives them hope that they will be spared from the tribulation and that they will be reunited with their loved ones who have already died in Christ. It also gives them a sense of urgency to live for Christ and to share the gospel with others. 1 Thessalonians 1:10 and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come.

  7. The rapture is a warning to unbelievers. It reminds them that they need to repent of their sins and turn to Christ before it is too late. It also shows them the judgment that awaits those who reject Christ.

  8. The rapture is a fulfillment of prophecy. There are many passages in the Bible that prophesy the rapture, such as 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and Revelation 3:10. These passages show that the rapture is a real event that is going to happen.

  9. The rapture is a necessary part of God's plan. God has a plan for the world, and the rapture is an important part of that plan. It is through the rapture that God will remove his people from the world and prepare them for his coming judgment.

  10. The rapture is a mystery. 1 Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed. We don't know everything about the rapture, but we know that it is a real event that is going to happen. We should trust God's plan for the rapture and be prepared for it at all times.

It is important to note that there are different interpretations of the rapture, and not everyone agrees with the pre-tribulation view. However it is the majority view by far. 

The arguments listed above are some of the reasons why some people believe that the pre-tribulation rapture is true.

The “Sons of God” “Sang Together” at the earth's foundation!

Image
Intro : In Job 38: The text is God speaking to Job about the earth's creation and uses the phrase " sons of God " to refer to angelic beings who witnessed and celebrated ( sang together ) at the forming of the world and its foundation (Job 38:7). This is supported by other uses of the phrase in Job (1:6, 2:1) and other parts of the Old Testament. In Genesis 6 : The identity of the "sons of God" are fallen angels . This view sees the "sons of God" as angels who rebelled against God and intermarried with human women, leading to the birth of the Nephilim and the eventual flood. This aligns with the portrayal of angels in other parts of the Bible (e.g., Jude 6). Some think this conflicts with Matthew 22:30, which suggests angels don't marry. However, this is angels marrying angels. When two angels accompanied Christ, visiting Abraham on the way to judge Sodom, the angels were in human form and ate food. They are powerful enough to chan...

A Spark from the Ashes: Delving Deeper into the "Single Pair" Hypothesis

Image
The recent study suggests that all humans descended from a single pair just 100,000 years ago as well as 9 of 10 animals perhaps due to a mass extinction event, has ignited a firestorm of debate.   The Intriguing Allure: The study analyzed 5 million animals' "bar codes," snippets of DNA on 100,000 animals and man.  Mitochondria, outside the cell nucleus, hints at a genetic bottleneck . This implies a drastic population decline followed by rapid repopulation, potentially from a single pair from each. This aligns with theories like the Toba supereruption , a cataclysmic event around 75,000 years ago that could have caused widespread devastation. Note: right picture shows multiple mega mega tsunamis flooding the dry persian area where the Garden was.  The idea that all humans might share such a recent, common ancestor, even if a small group, is a powerful unifying concept, potentially fostering a deeper sense of shared humanity.

“Job – The original Dragon slayer,” or “Free will on Trial”

Image
“In that day, the LORD will punish with his sword, his fierce, great and powerful sword, Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent; He will slay the monster of the sea.” - Isaiah 27:1 Forty years ago , I was an impressionable sophomore at Florida State University. Due to simultaneous unusual events which I will specifically address shortly , I formed these thoughts about the book of Job. As a premed student, I was the president of a biology club that had provided science speakers for our small group of biology students where we heard many interesting talks. At one particular meeting, the professor decided to offer his "testimony" as proof of spiritualism as manifest to him. His family had moved into a small community near Apalachicola, called Sopchoppy.  He bought an old, abandoned Church to renovate into a home. Brilliant really - the best cost per square foot available. After a period of time living there, he began to have "v...
