The Rapture — According to the Bible
The Rapture — According to the Bible
The subject of the rapture has generated many theories and interpretations over time. Yet much of what people believe about it often comes from systems, traditions, or isolated passages rather than from the full witness of Scripture. This study examines the biblical texts carefully, allowing passages to be read in context and allowing Scripture to interpret Scripture.
The goal is simple: to see what the Bible itself actually says about the gathering of believers and the return of Christ.

From the opening pages of the book
For many Christians, the topic of the rapture has become one of the most widely accepted and least examined doctrines in the church today. Most believers form their understanding from sermons, books, popular teachers, or the broader Christian culture around them.
Some believe firmly in a pre-tribulation rapture. Others hold to a mid-tribulation or post-tribulation view. And there are those who feel uncertain and hope it never becomes an issue they need to discuss.
