Do You Believe in the Rapture? Yes: 6.0 %No: 90.1 %Undecided: 3.9 % WOW! this is a prophecy update website and 90% of those voting do not believe there is a catching up? That is strange. I wonder if the question were "do you believe in a resurrection of the dead?" would the chart be similar. Of course there is a rapture, just when it happens is the debate and discussion for believers to have.

I couldn't find the survey and vote to see if it was from the people at that site or if it was a headline from a survey done out in the general public.

Thank you. I didn't scroll all the way down. I was thinking it was one of the articles but didn't see it.

Do You Believe in the Rapture? Yes: 6.0 %No: 90.1 %Undecided: 3.9 % Yes, that's pretty crazy if it reflects Christian views from that website.

I think the survey shows how many people do not read scripture; and that is why they must await the harvest. The ones who know the rapture is real are the ones who are in tune with scripture. The only debate we have is when and how it is to take place.

tennessean, mike, Natalie, sog, Gary, boraddict, The numbers were not posted when I voted YES and did I receive quite a surprise when I saw the numbers. Are the people who voted know their scripture? But I do agree the answer or polling results could have been different if the question had been changed do you believe in the resurrection.

14,153 NO or 91%
774 YES or 5%
625 Undecided or 4%
Still insane, but there it is.
For me, the scripture points to a pretribulation rapture. No doubts whatsoever.

Okay, without offending anyone, if we as followers are "changed" or get our new garments etc, when the second coming happens, and the second coming is after the great tribulation. We are then in the presence of God here on earth, so how is there a post tribulation "rapture"? I'm not sure I see how you can be caught up to where you already are. Studying this now, BTW, just curious for an explanation that fite the description of the title.

I can understand that in a way, but why then call it post tribulation and be so confusing, instead of just calling it pre-wrath? I think it is likely because what is wrath is also not totally agreed upon either. LOL

I believe Post-trib believes we go through the whole Great tribulation. Pre-wrath does not. Matthew 24:21-22 21 For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. 22 Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

sog servantofthelordSOG is correct, but the details on how to arrive at the conclusions is where the views take different shape. Nutshell version: Pre wrath basically hinges uopn "not being appointed to wrath" & wrath begins after the 6th seal. Some also have Christ returning at this point as well (during the last year or so of the 7). Post trib is the idea that Christ returns at the end of the 7 years. Whoever is left of believers at that time are raptured while the resurrection occurs just before that (simultaneous).
