About this ebook
My personal thoughts are that I will do God's work on earth as long as I am here. I do not put God in a box and limit Him in my mind as He has unlimited abilities. I do pray that I will be on the first available flight to heaven as the Bible states in Matthew, Luke and Revelation.

New Testament List of Rapture verses
Conclusion
Act 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
A translation of this verse is: Do not believe a word Timothy Duke says, but listen with open ears and search the Word to discern the truth.
A definition of the word rapture
is caught up, seize, snatch, take away
. It is a transliterated word from the Latin infinitive rapio
. The Latin Bible is called The Vulgate
. the Vulgate was created in the 4th century AD from the Greek translation of the Hebrew bible called the Septuagint and the Hebrew Bible called the Vorlage
. The Vulgate was created 800 years before the first English Bible was created and 1,000 years before the English King James Version of the Bible was created.
The term Rapture
is vigorously contested among Christians. My goal is to open the minds of these Christians and to bring the House of our Lord together on this issue or at least cause people to refrain from fist fights over who is right in their belief. My goal is to reveal the verses that support a rapture.
One common point of critics is that the word Rapture
does not occur in English translations of the original text. While some Christians in America insist that the King James Version (KJV) is the original Word of God, they forget the language English was not established until the 5th century AD and the KJV was created 1,000 years after His crucifixion. Since we know some books of the Bible are at least 3,000 years old, God must have dictated His Word in another language. All Bible scholars agree that God dictated His Word in Hebrew or the common language of Hebrew called Aramaic for the Old Testament. Most believe the New Testament was dictated in Greek although recent evidence points to some New Testament books were originally written in Hebrew or Aramaic. Let's look at Dr. Chuck Missler's chart that shows the translations of the Bible in chronological order.
This chart shows the original text was in Hebrew/Aramaic and first translated to Greek in 270 BC after Alexander the Great conquered the world and required all important documents be translated or written in Greek. The Greek translation of the Bible is called the LXX (70) or Septuagint. The Latin version was created circa 3rd century A.D. from the Hebrew Vorlage and Masoretic Text (MT) and the Septuagint as the world was conquered by the Romans which spoke Latin and required important documents to be written in Latin. In 2 Co 12:2, Paul states he was caught up
(Strongs G726 - harpazo) which is the first usage of the word harpazo
as pertaining to a rapture. The Greek word Harpazo
was translated into a form of the Latin word Rapio or Rapere or Rapturo
in Latin version of the Bible called the Vulgate
. Harpazo and Rapturo are both translated into English
