Is there really going to be a rapture of the Church? Does the Bible actually teach it—or is it a modern invention?
And if the word “rapture” isn’t even found in Scripture, why do so many Christians believe in it? Over the years, predictions have come and gone—like claims that Jesus would return on specific dates, including September 23rd—leaving many believers confused, skeptical, or even discouraged. Yet Scripture is clear: no one knows the day or the hour of Christ’s return—not the angels, and not even the Son, but the Father alone. In this episode, we’re going to open the Bible and ask honest questions.
We’ll look at what Scripture really says about Christ’s return, where the idea of the rapture comes from, and whether it’s something Christians should expect. Most importantly, we’ll ask this: How should we live in light of Christ’s coming? Not in fear. Not in date-setting. But with watchfulness, holiness, and urgency—living as if Christ could return at any moment, while faithfully reaching the lost with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Because whether you call it the rapture, the catching away, or the blessed hope, one truth remains certain: Jesus is coming again—and that reality should shape how we live today.
