    Where exactly in the king james bible, does god make it perfectly clear, that he is against the rapture theory? im trying to help family, 1 at a time, to understand, we are not going to fly away? jesus is coming here! i know what ezekiel says, is there other as plain telling of it elsewhere? and if so, i have seen 130 scriptures about it, but for the newly learning,they politely throw 1st and 2cnd thessolonians at me? hence the main concern? i don't want anyone mislead or not to be able to know jesus christ from antichrist? thank you.

    Christy Look at 1 corinthians 15:50-54 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 those are the ones I'm aware of. God Bless

    Christy Potter,

    The "rapture" requires faith outside of Faith, you have to believe in unsanctioned doctrines. Christian's forget that they are perpetual sinners, undeserving of a fictional lifeline. God has structure that we like to forge into our likeness.

    If the first resurrection is just for the sealed elect & 24 elders, why would anyone else enter except at the second resurrection when God changes the universe to accommodate?

    For people that think they will be transported to heaven BEFORE the sixth trumpet (true rapturist), before the great tribulation, to avoid a death that's been appointed to them.

    ( Ezekiel 21:2-6) - On the day of the Lord, both the righteous and the wicked die. No "rapture".

    2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,

    3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.

    4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:

    5 That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.

    For the people that believe they are firstfruits by virtue of their Christianity, and will be taken up in the clouds to meet Jesus ( 1 Thessalonians 4:17) need to research who the elect are, and why they are so revered.
