    The rapture is unbiblical anyway. None of this really comes from the actual text - it’s squinting and connecting random unconnected Bible verses.

      We’re not talking about the rapture, we’re talking about the second coming.

      The rapture is the unbiblical doctrine that all of the people who are saved will just disappear and the rest will be left behind.

        Is The Rapture threatening us with a good time?

        Also, I didn’t know the difference between the rapture and the second coming of Jesus so thanks for the info!

          Well, Jesus also said the worst people are the people to make a big public show of being religious, and that when they get to judgement day he’s gonna be like “I never knew ye” because they were terrible and false.

          I used to be in the same boat- I just thought the rapture was a synonym for the second coming. It’s rapture theology that’s unbiblical, but not the second coming itself.
