Discussions With When Will The Rapture Happen

By Jill Faulkner


People would think what the future holds for them. This is a valid thought that comes to mind, however fleeting. Some though just put some deep though for it and there are even discussions on the subject. There are several questions on man's life and with that, many resources has come to light as well attempting to give the answer. For religious people, topics on the coming of Christ are many and this includes when will the rapture happen.

The rapture talks of the believers of Jesus being caught up in the last of days so they be together with him for eternity. Both the dead and the living will be taken into heaven. This is a very blessed event to look forward to as it speaks of redemption where one can finally be free of the oppression and the injustices that take place before the last day.

The scriptures have many references for this day. There are even signs given for it. This time will be when the coming of Christ for the second time can be witnessed. At an end of the tribulation, on that day Jesus comes and gathers people for them to meet in heaven. Such a time can bring comfort for each.

One will want to ask too who the people who get caught up are. Jesus provides an answer to this in the gospels four times. It would be those that the father gave to Jesus. Those who see him and who believe in him, will have eternal life when he will raise them up during this last day. People who the father drawn to Jesus are also among those saved and also those who share his blood and flesh too.

Jesus answers the question on when this can happen. He gives signs to look out for. He says that the day and the hour is not known to anyone but it will happen after the tribulation and all the world would know it and would see him. This happens at the end of the seven years of the prophecy of Daniel.

One sign is beginning of sorrows. At this time, there will be an escalated political unrest, presence of disease, famines and geological disturbances. Messianic claims will rise too. The period of tribulation also will happen where offenses would grow into hatred, persecution and betrayal. Love will be cold and lawlessness will abound.

He also speaks of an abomination. Jesus even warns that at such time, people should head for cover since great suffering can be expected. There also would be many to claim that christ has come, in secret, but Jesus says that when he does, all will know of it and those saved will be gathered together.

The time may be terrible but it does show that there is an end to it. That end will even be glorious. God would show grace and protection.

Discussions on when will the rapture happen shows how liberating your faith is. It will show that salvation really happens. It will show that there will be change and that it will be good even if it seems that everything is already doomed.
