 WHAT IS RAPTURE ?

texts (I Cor. 15: 51- 58, John14: 1-3)

Rapture is the taking away or catching of up of all true believers in Christ to meet the Lord in space (i.e. in the air).  Rapture is the transformation process of changing the body of believers in Christ to glorious heavenly body.  It is the first phase of the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
 
The truth about rapture is that it does not have a specific time; no body knows when it will happen. 
According to the scripture suddenly there will be a sound in heaven , those who are in Christ will be change within the twinkling of an eye ..... "Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.  When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:  “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”  The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.  But thanks be to God, Who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord  your labor is not in vain.
