Howdy,

can someone tell me what the rapture is in a short way as when i look at this page catholic.com/library/Rapture.asp it just confueses me.

i sort of need a summary or sumthing.

it’s the incorrect idea that protestants hold that is this:

Prior to the 2nd coming of Jesus, all the faithful who have been born again and accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior will be taken up, body and soul, into heaven. They will disappear from Earth.
Then the antichrist will come to power here on earth and for 7 years, known as the tribulation, those who come to believe in Christ will struggle against the evil one and then Jesus will return to defeat the evil one.

The word “rapture” does not appear in the book of Revelation.

As long as I am in a state of grace I would like to see Jesus’ coming.
It is the strangest topic I have come across.
