the rapture?

A1
Let me start of by saying no matter which view you choose, the fact is we can agree on it happening. If you adhere to the pre-tribulation perspective and it doesn't unfold as expected, it could provoke a state of panic, leading to doubts about the eventuality of His arrival. That's why i say keep both in mind.
The Rapture is perhaps the most important piece of prophecy for us to understand since it could very well impact us personally. In summary, the Rapture is an event where all who have put their trust in Christ, living and deceased, will suddenly be caught up from earth, be joined with Christ in the air, and taken to heaven. Paul describes the Rapture in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18:

The above video is on the Pre-tribulation view. The video below is for the Post- tribulation view, please watch both. I agree with the Post-tribulation, My reason is explaned below the bottom video. More on the Tribulation here


Three Views on the Rapture

Pre-Tribulation, Pre-Wrath, and Post-Tribulation

Pre-tribulation: This is the most commonly held belief today that became popular post-19th century. Those who hold this view believe that the Bible does not prophecy that the Church will be a part of the tribulation because the Church is no longer mentioned after Revelation 3. Therefore, believers will be raptured prior to the tribulation, which is the season of the pouring out of God’s wrath. This view holds the position that God will save us from His wrath by not allowing us to go through the tribulation.

Mid-tribulation: This is the least commonly held position which teaches that the Church will go through the first 3.5 years of the tribulation, followed by the rapture. The Church will, therefore, not endure the last 3.5 years, or the Great Tribulation.

Post-tribulation: This is the longest held position in the church history. This position holds the belief that the Church will undergo the entire 7 years of the tribulation, followed by the rapture, and Christ’s second coming. Therefore, the rapture and Christ’s second coming are the same event.

The Post Rapture View

I believe in the post-tribulation, these words alone convince me. The Bible says we must go through many tribulations, to enter the kingdom of God. Does God always save us from tribulation, or does he save us through tribulation? Did God save Noah from the flood or through the flood? Did God save Job from his trials or through his trials? It is through tribulation. Did God save Egypt from the plagues, or did He protect them through the plagues? My thoughts are God will protect us through this time period. The post trib video makes the most sence to me anyway. I know the Bible says Gods people are not appointed to his wrath.

If you adhere to the pre-tribulation perspective and it doesn't unfold as expected, it could provoke a state of panic, leading to doubts about the eventuality of His arrival. The notion of God orchestrating a rapture while individuals are engaged in activities like driving or flying defies logic. Picture a scenario where a pilot suddenly vanishes while navigating a plane full of passengers; such a scenario appears highly improbable. It appears more plausible that the rapture would occur post-tribulation, after all matters have been resolved. I am not hear to convince you of a pre-trib view, which ever view you beleive is fine with me. I hope it ends up being the pre-trib view. Regardless of one's stance, the consensus remains: the rapture will occur.
Matthew 24:22  And unless those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved; but for the elect’s sake (God’s chosen ones), those days shall be shortened

Revelation Chapter 13: verse 16:  Also, it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.
