    Sermon about the Second Coming and popular misconceptions about what this means.

    When I was in my early teens, I went to a film evening put on by our local branch of Youth for Christ and watched A Thief in the Night and A Distant Thunder.

    Rapture- True Or False? What Will Happen At The Lord's Second Coming

    Contributed by Robert Webb on Feb 3, 2025
     | 245 views

    There is cause for reservation about the popular conception of the rapture, especially in regard to the time element and manner in which it is commonly believed it will take place.

    The rapture is an intriguing subject and at the forefront of much thought. What is it? This is the teaching that the church will be "caught up" or raptured in the clouds with Jesus and the resurrected believers and be with the Lord forever. That much is taught very plainly in 1 ...read more

    based on 8 ratings

    At the Rapture, the dead in Christ shall rise first and then those who are alive shall be instantly changed. How will New Testament believers who have slept (or physically died) be raised? What is the resurrection body like at the Rapture?

    Intro: Because Jesus rose from the dead, we shall live also (John 11:25-26). All true Christians wait for the glorious appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ (I Thess. 4:15-18). At the Rapture, the dead in Christ shall rise first and then those who are alive shall be instantly changed (I Cor. ...read more

    For the child of God, there is the assurance that Jesus will return for them.

    I am so thankful to God that I do not have hope in this life only. For if we do, the Apostle Paul states that we are men that are most miserable. But God gives His children a joy that is unspeakable and full of glory. God has taken the misery of our lives and placed it on Christ as He hung on the ...read more

    In the last two sermons, we have been talking about the rapture of the church. I want to remind you again, the rapture is different from the second coming of Christ.

    • At the Second Coming, the Lord will literally come to the earth and set up His kingdom on earth for a thousand years. • When the rapture of the church takes place, the Lord will not come back to the earth, but the church will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Look at 1 Thess 4:17 “Then we ...read more

    The final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be REAL

    "BE REAL!" And now we arrive at the final command of Paul to the Church in expectation of the rapture, it is the command to be Real!
