Questions About the Rapture

[Randy Carson]

I grew up in Catholicism which rejects both the Millennium reign of Christ and the Catching Away of believers.
An ideal deception is to use Christian words while redefining them.
The more steeped In tradition they are- the more unbiblical they are.
When I went to churches which taught the bible, they also (whenever it would be) taught the Rapture.

The Catholic Church has no problem with 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Prof. We will all be caught up at the second coming, but not before.

If you missed that point of doctrine when you were a Catholic, then you might pause to consider what other important doctrinal truths you missed when you were younger and to re-evaluate whether leaving the Barque of Peter was such a smart move, after all.

The reason some Churches are more steeped in tradition than others is because they have held fast to what was handed down from the Apostles just as Paul taught in his SECOND Letter to the Thessalonians:

2 Thessalonians 2:15
So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

None of the apostles nor any of the ECF's taught the pre-trib rapture. It is a theological novelty foisted upon you by men who have nothing more than their own notions to guide them concerning the meaning of God's Word.
