The Rapture: Qualifications, Signs, and Importance
In Christian eschatology, the Rapture refers specifically to the predicted event when Christian believers who have died will be raised and believers who are still alive and remain shall be caught up together with them (the resurrected dead believers) in the clouds to meet the Lord Jesus Christ in the air. The rapture has to do with the church. The rapture of the church is also called “the coming of the Lord” but never the second coming of Christ.
