Understanding The Rapture Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 8, 2023

Study #3: This study looks at the two most prominent views on the Rapture. Ultimately, however, no one knows the exact day or the specifics of when it will occur. What matters is that we are prepared for that Day by knowing Jesus Christ.

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on May 17, 2021

1. In the last days, there will be scoffers (v. 3) 2. The scoffers will be following their own evil (sinful) desires (v. 3) 3. They will mock the promise of the coming of Jesus Christ saying “Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything ...read more
