[quote:Anonymous Coward 22255432:MV80NzIxMjEzXzg2MDA1OTkwXzU2RUFDNjBF] [quote:VinoSom:MV80NzIxMjEzX0RCMDJCNDc5] I am a non denominational Christian. I believe Jesus Christ died for my sins, was crucified on the cross, and rose from the grave. I believe in heaven and hell. I believe I am saved only by Grace. Whith that said I dont know where I stand on the Rapture? Please tell me where that word is used one time in the bible? [/quote] That word is the english version of the latin 'rapturo' or the greek 'harpazo'. It means 'caught up', Rapture is the same thing as 'caught up' Like these verses: I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one [b]caught up[/b] to the third heaven. How that he was [b]caught up[/b] into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. Then we which are alive and remain shall be [b]caught up[/b] together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was [b]caught up[/b] unto God, and to his throne. So, yes, the word is in there ... the word is 'caught up'. Same thing. [/quote]
