The Exodus and the Rapture

Welcome back to All About the Rapture. Today, we are going to look at another Old Testament story that teaches us about the rapture: the story of Israel’s exodus from Egypt.

Noah, Lot, and the Rapture (Part 1)

Welcome back to All About the Rapture.

Welcome back to All About the Rapture. Today, we are going to focus on one of the main details of the pre-Tribulation rapture: our disappearance.

“In My Father’s House…” (John 14:2-3)

Welcome back to All About the Rapture. Today, we’re going to talk about John 14:2-3. John 14:2-3 is one of the primary passages that pre-Tribulationists use as evidence of a pre-Tribulation rapture. Let’s get right to it. In John 14:2-3, Jesus says to His disciples: 2. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it…

The Rapture: Caught Up Together in the Clouds

Welcome back to All About the Rapture! Today we are going to look at the rapture in a different way, by looking at imagery of the Second Coming. As you will see, clouds are important imagery of the Second Coming. When Jesus describes His return in Matthew 24:30-31, Mark 13:26-27, Mark 14:62, and Luke 21:27,…
