The Rapture is part of scripture. In I Thessalonians 4:13-18, the Latin translation for the Greek word Harpazo, translated "Caught Up" in English is the Latin word Raptus. Paul describes how both living and dead believers in Jesus Christ are resurrected.

The question addressed in this video is the timing of the Rapture. When does the Rapture take place, in connection with the Tribulation. Jesus links this period to his Second Coming as described in Matthew 24 and 25. The Days of Noah Matthew 24:24-37.

The Tribulation is also known as the Daniel's 70th Week, 7-Years of tribulation, the final week of Daniel's 70 Weeks. There are specific signs and events described in scripture. (Daniel 12:1, Matthew 24:21-22)
According to scripture the "Rapture" revolves around the Tribulation, its a time of trouble on the earth unequaled in the history of the world, prior to the return of Jesus in the Second Coming.

Daniel 12:1 ESV
(1) “At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the book.

Matthew 24:21-22
(21) For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.
(22) And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

Jesus links this period to his Second Coming. The three main points of the timing, revolving around the Tribulation are:
#harpazo #rapture #secondcoming #endtimes #bookofdaniel #biblesecrets
Pre-Trib (Pre-Tribulation): Jesus says to "Watch" you neither know the day or hour, this is called "Imminence" it can happen at any time.

Mid-Tribulation: This position believes the Rapture occurs in the middle of the Tribulation, 3.5 years after the start of the events. The main event being an agreement to rebuild the Third Temple (Daniel 9:27)

Post-Tribulation: This position believes the Rapture takes place at the end of the Tribulation, where the believers are caught up and return with Christ at the Second Coming.

The series of events are described by Paul that takes place in the Rapture:
1. Jesus descends from Heaven with the souls of those who are dead in Christ,
2. The trumpet of God will sound
3. The dead in Christ will rise, (the bodies of those who are dead will be reunited with resurrected with the souls)
4. Those who are alive in Christ (People who have not yet died)
5. The living along with the dead in Christ will be "Caught Up" (Harpazo, Raptus)
6. We will meet the Lord in the Air, to always be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 ESV
(13) But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope.
(14) For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.
(15) For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.
(16) For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
(17) Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
(18) Therefore encourage one another with these words.
