Rapture, The Bride Redeemed

The concept of the rapture is a highly charged and controversial topic. Does the Bible really speak of the idea of people essentially vanishing into the clouds? The short answer is yes. The concept of “rapture” is noted from the beginning in Genesis to the end in Revelation. There are rapture events (plural) even in the Old Testament.

What does destiny have in store for both the church and Israel? Understanding these two entities is a key factor to making sense of the end time’s scenario.
