What's with the rapture questions tonight?
According to this doctrine, when Christ returns, all of the elect who have died will be raised and transformed into a glorious state, along with the living elect, and then be caught up to be with Christ. The key text referring to the rapture is 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17, which states, "For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel’s call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first; then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord."
Virtually all Christians hold that the Second Coming will be preceded by a time of great trouble and persecution of God’s people (2 Thess. 2:1–4). This period is often called the tribulation. Until the nineteenth century, all Christians agreed that the rapture—though it was not called that at the time—would occur immediately before the Second Coming, at the close of the period of persecution. This position is today called the "post-tribulational" view because it says the rapture will come after the tribulation.

All those will be left will be under Christ reigns and the saints for 1000 years, and the chance for their salvation will also take place.

i come across it incredibly is suited to no longer communicate approximately faith lots. It starts a brilliant flame conflict between each and every concept possible. I, like many others, become raised Christian. i don't comprehend what you may call me now. puzzled i think. it incredibly is suited to leave human beings be. no longer something incorrect with believing... whether, there's a distinction in believing and actually ending up your ideals. And, enable the gays be for goodness sake. Do you extremely think of if God exists, he is going to assert "Oh bypass forward Drew, premarital intercourse is positive. howdy you, queer!...bypass to hell. I doubt he is going to discriminate against categories of sinners with such precision. based on the unique question, i might in all threat be shocked. no longer by using fact i'm non believer, yet by using fact who's definitely waiting in any respect cases for "the rapture"? with the help of how, no longer anybody is arrogant in basic terms by using fact they use vocabulary previous your comprehension. i think of i've got saved my reaction easy and independent sufficient for each individual.

"Is it true that once the rapture happens"
that's a lot of assumptions right there.
