So the weirdest things happened to me today. I got really challenged on something that I have come to just accept as truth.
The “Rapture”.
I’m reading a book all about Jesus. It speaks about who he was, who he is to today’s world and trying to expose the truth of who Jesus is.
Anywho, he goes on to start speaking about how we tell the story of Jesus is as important as what we believe about Jesus. So he started into the way that in some peoples lives Jesus is the Jesus from Revelation where he is the Jesus of judgement.
He then spoke about the Rapture.
Here is something I had no idea about. The first mention or idea of the Rapture actually came about in the 1800’s. It was never a teaching of the early church or christians and that the most people that believe in the Rapture actually believe that it is just something that everyone knows and it has always been.
Uhh yeah imagine me raising my hand right now cause that was me. I had no idea that it was such a new theology.
Now here is the thing. I can’t say my mind has been changed because he really didn’t speak against it, but it did get me thinking and made me really want to do some research and find out more about it.
So if you are reading this I would love some feedback…
To Rapture or Not to Rapture? That is the question.
Where do you stand and why…
