"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" (2 Timothy 3:16)

At any given moment, all at once, several million people from over the entire world will vanish without a trace. Many reasons will probably be given for the disappearance of these millions of people such as a terrorist attack with a top secret weapon, a time warp, a weather anomaly or even U.F.O.'s. It may even be said that the earth has 'cleansed itself' or that God has removed all the bad people. None of these explanations will be true.

God's Word in the Bible tells us that the reason for this mass disappearance is called "The Rapture". This means that living Christians, those who have confessed Jesus as their Lord and received Him as their Savior will be instantly taken to Heaven by Him. Not only that, but all deceased Christians will be raised from the dead and also taken. We have proof that this will happen from these verses in the Bible:

"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)

Everyone living that has received Jesus as their Savior or anyone that had received Him before they died will be raptured.

Though the word 'rapture' does not appear in English Bible translations, which use the words"caught up" as in the 1 Thessalonians 4:17 verse above, the word "rapiemur" is used in the same verse of the Latin Vulgate translation of the Bible, and that's where the English word 'rapture' comes from:

"deinde nos qui vivimus qui relinquimur simul rapiemur cum illis in nubibus obviam Domino in aera et sic semper cum Domino erimus" (1 Thessalonians 4:17 Latin Vulgate)
