The Rapture
• 1 min. read • grade level: 6
Enoch walked with God . . . three hundred years . . . and he was not, for God took him.
Enoch was taken to heaven without dying before the great flood. Enoch is an Old Testament illustration of the New Testament truth that the Church (ALL born-again believers) will be raptured out of the world before the seven-year tribulation period. Read 1 Thessalonians 1:1010And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. (1 Thessalonians 1:10). Christians will not go through the tribulation. We wait for the Christ of blessing, not the crisis of Babylon. We look for the Lamb of God, not the Lion of Judah. We watch for the Bridegroom, not the Beast.
