What About the Rapture?

Seven Things Wrong With Rapture Theory: 1.Too Many “Comings” of Christ- Has Christ coming FOR the saints, WITH the saints, and then to EXECUTE JUDGMENT (Jude 14,15) The Bible speaks of a ONE TIME EVENT – Hebrews 9:27,28 2.Too Many Judgments – Acts 17:31 God “has appointed a DAY on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained…”

Seven Things Wrong With Rapture Theory: 3.Denies Universal Coming of Christ – only righteous know Jesus is in clouds. Remaining not see Him for at least seven years. Revelation 1:7 “every eye shall see Him” Acts 1:9-11 “will come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven” Romans 14:11; Isaiah 45:23 -- Jesus taught universal “coming in glory” when “all nations” shall be gathered for “judgment. Matthew 25:31-46 ; 2 Timothy 4:1 – Rapture has some raised, some left, some in tribulation, some in heaven! Just does not fit into the Bible.

Seven Things Wrong With Rapture Theory: 4.Contradicts John 5:28,29 - “Same hour” “good and evil” coming forth for judgment 5.Contradicts all of the “Last Day” passages – John 6:39 “raise it up at the last day” – John 6:40 “at the last day” – also John 6:44,54 – Martha to jesus in John 11:24 “resurrection at the last day.” – John 12:48 “word which He spoke will judge us in the last day.”

Seven Things Wrong With Rapture Theory: 6.Contradicts 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10 “in that day” - punishment and eternal destruction to those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel in the same “day” that the righteous will receive “rest” 7.Contradicts teaching of 2 Peter 3:10-12 – “Day of the Lord” to destroy the earth – not to use it for at least another 1,007 years!

Theories Based on Difficult Passages of Scripture are Dangerous when they Contradict Clear Passages on the Subject Anything that Contradicts the Word of God is FALSE! All who desire a Home with God Must Reject That Which is False & Cling to the Truth of God’s Word
