As a "pre-tribber", I would respectfully contend that the raptured church is not just "sitting around with Jesus", but enjoying the Marriage Feast of the Lamb. Then, at the end of the tribulation period, He will return, with His church for the final battle of Armageddon.

THATS FUNNY BECAUSE THE INVITATION TO THE MARRIAGE SUPPER IS AT THE COMING OF THE LORD JESUS AFTER GREAT TRIBULATION. READ IT FOR YOURSELF. REVELATION 19: 9, 11 9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. so im thinking you dont really read your bible and study. you just listen to ear ticklers, and form your own version of comfort and ease. lack of knowledge destroys God's people. Hosea 4 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

There's no pretribulation rapture... let's just look at it this way... Jesus said when I return will I find faith... so how was yr faith tested if u were pre raptured... Look at it this way... Who will GOD look at at with more mercy and grace those who were pretrib raptured or those who went through it not taking the 666 mark... think yr faith needs to be tested

Strangely enough I would listen to these teachings after putting my kids to bed, as company for washing dishes and folding laundry until late at night. I loved to hear the writing on the blackboard it made me memorize the key words .A lot of it had stuck in my head too... it also helped me keep calm as the reality of divorce showed itself night by night there too. Thank you RC. For the calm voice and wise teaching in my time of testing. I gave it all to Jesus.

mal'ak emeth - This is not only naive, but contrary to the explicit teaching of both Jesus and his apostles, who said quite the opposite. “To the law and the testimony! If they speak not according to this word it is because there is no light in them.” This OT principle clearly carries over into the NT: Matt 5:17, etc. Because the work of the Spirit IN us is altogether subjective, the whole point of an inspired text is to provide a uniformly accessible objective basis for what we all believe. For which there is NO substitute. It isn’t either/or. It’s both/and.

I was brought up to not like Christian and Jesus wasn’t real .. that all changes when I had a very bad experience in my life and I pretended to be a Christian but little do i know God had his own plans for me .. I saw Jesus for the first time in my dreams and in his presence I felt this love I never experienced In my life before.. in my savior presence I felt all my sins was forgiven when I woken up I lift my hands up give my life to Jesus I repent and today my ways and life is change for the better.. I saw Jesus many times after I had a out of body experiences .. I was in Israel Jesus show me new Jerusalem and he said tell his people to stand together with Israel ... Jesus show me a moon he said when u see this moon know the time is near, I saw Jesus in the clouds he said to me he is coming back soon , I saw 7 angel with long trumpets, I saw Jesus coming fiercely in the clouds he had no favoritism if u know him u will go if not u will have to go through the hard times here on earth 🌍 as Jesus was coming there was a lighting then rapture suddenly a earthquake and then follow darkness Over the earth and a knee length flood the world was in Chacos ... I also saw the pope with a bible in his hand said 666 I personally don’t trust the Pope ... i had many many dreams where I saw my savior Jesus Christ .. we communicated through thoughts and I saw the number 12:13 or 12:12 I can’t remember the exact number but one of the number I don’t know what it meant ... I saw a army Preparedness for a secret attack they have green and black uniform I saw this army with a long range missile and a short range missile .. I just want to share with everyone .. I trust in Jesus he is coming back soon. Because my father told me so .. Jesus is the only way plz repent everyday every second and trust in him with all ur heart and souls ..

There is zero proof that the early church believed in the 2nd and 3rd return of Jesus, which is basically what the dispensational rapture teaches (to rapture His church and reign for 1000 yrs, and then returns again to judge) Not found in scripture!!! You need someone to tell you this (John Nelson Darby), and then you start inserting this concept into everything you read in the word of God.

@@alvinhickling901a rapture from the dead as in a resurrection into the air of life YES. Now, here’s the question: How many comings are there? How would you answer that? Two. The first coming was 2,000 years ago. The second coming is sometime in the future. There are only two comings. Well, I’m not going there yet, but I just want to keep it simple for the moment here. But Paul says, whatever he’s talking about in 1 Thessalonians 4 happens at the coming of the Lord. So, that will happen at the second coming. There’s a first coming, there’s a second coming, okay? And he says, “The Lord himself will descend from Heaven with a shout, the voice of the archangel, with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first.” This is a resurrection. It doesn’t use the word “rapture.” It uses that which comes from the Latin from this passage, I think, or maybe it’s from the Corinthians passage, but in any event, it doesn’t use the term. I’m not faulting the word, but we just want to make sure that the words that we’re using are accurately reflecting what the text says. This says, “The dead in Christ will rise,” so we are talking here about a resurrection at the coming of the Lord. And then it says, “Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together”-there’s your rapture word, I think-“caught up with him in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.” So, what Paul is saying is that at the coming of the Lord, those who have fallen asleep will be resurrected, so they go from dead to alive in the resurrection. But those who have not died yet will also be resurrected in the sense that they get transformed without having died. Why? Because it’s the end. Here’s Jesus. Pretty straightforward.

Excellent teaching and exposition. Thankyou Dr. Sproul!

I have ALWAYS APPRECIATED his extensive knowledge, years of study, and learning; and the calm, sensible and non-sensational manner of presenting and explaining it. Dr. Sproul was "called home" several years ago. He was Presbyterian, and steeped in the Reformed theological tradition. I am also Presbyterian and Reformed (and reforming!).

Jesus is not receiving us in the clouds to accompany him back to earth - we are meeting him to go to heaven with Him.

It's RC Sproul, therefore he can't be wrong. But didn't Jesus say, as it was in the days of Noah so shall it be also in the days of the son of man? Luke 17:26. The things that the people are going to be doing in the days leading up to the Rapture and the final judgment Luke 17:26 are the same things the people were doing in the days that led to the Ark and the judgment, Luke 17:27 which are eating and in drinking, marrying and giving in marriage. But the days that lead to the second coming of Christ are not the days that lead to the Rapture and the final judgment but are days of great tribulation Mathew 4:21,22 when the people won't be eating and drinking as well as the people did in the days before the flood, because it will be a time of death and destruction, a time when the people's number one priority is to survive, and when marrying and giving in marriage may just be the farthest thing from their minds because of the unprecedented death rate. People are going to be dying so fast that if those days are not shortened not even the elect will be saved. So, for the Scripture to be fulfilled, and for there to be a post-tribulation Rapture, the people will have to be eating and drinking, doing all of the stuff that Jesus said they'll be doing during the time of the tribulation period.

Kenny - I’m with you on this one. I have faith in Jesus Christ, but not in my ability to figure everything out. Lotsa people in the world know everything about everything and aren’t shy about telling you so... I ain’t one of ‘em. I was raised in a pre-trib rapture church and was convinced of a rapture then. Later I spent 19 years in a partial preterist no rapture church and was convinced there too. Now I just say “I don’t know, but I’m leaving on the first bus out of here.”

In no way can 70AD be termed a "return" of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is obvious that in 1 Thess.4 and 1 Cor.15 that our Lord returns FOR His Church. But in Revelation 19:7-9, 14; 1 Thessalonians 3:13; Zechariah 14:9; Revelation 19:15, 16, after the ravages of the Tribulation, He returns WITH His Church.

Those epistles addresses the audience who received them, as Jesus also addressed that generation. Paul writes to a group who were experiencing the persecutions in their day, and wrath which was about to come (70ad). He didn't write a letter for people 2000 years later,they understood exactly what he was referring to. The being caught up in the air, is metaphoric imagery. The air is the most holy place opened (heaven and earth was the old temple in Jerusalem). The new heaven and earth, and temple, is already now. In Christ. We are in Him. We can't be more with him later. We are joined. One. Union. Spirit. New creation already present.

The majority of Christians get mired in the swamp of interpretive controversy because they don't have an overarching view of eschatology. Sincere questions: Is a Jewish view of "final things" escapist or redemptive? Need we be translated to another "place" because the Gospel has ultimately failed to gather and purify a people for God? If not, why do we need a "tribulation:? If the Gospel has not initiated a present and growing kingdom, how can we have any confidence in either the salvific or sanctifying power of Christ's life, death, resurrection, ascension, and final return?

Michel, Read “The Next Medo-Persian Empire” to be Rapture ready.

I've been talking to our children about these things. So much to being a Christian than merely attending a church.

I listened intently here and the text that confuses me with R.C. Sproul's interpretation of the rapture is John 14:1-3 "“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also." Here, the Lord Yeshua Christ is explaining to His disciples at His final Passover that He's leaving them but tells them not to be troubled about it. What is He going to do? He's leaving the earth to return to Glory He shared with His Father before the world was created (John 17:5) in heaven. To do what? To build homes for His people. Now according to Dr. Sproul's interpretation, the Church that is caught up will never reside in these homes because they're gonna leave and come right back to the earth.

@@hildapage7065 Hello Hilda, I am not going to get into a long drug out response, I have learned, in general, people believe what they have been taught all their lives. Here are 4 bible verses (there are hundreds more) that no futurist can answer in a definitive, logical way. 1. Set aside what you have been taught for 15 minutes and read the first 5 verses of Revelation and ask yourself, who was the Revelation written too and pay attention to the message of imminence in the first 5 verses. The biblical translators of the NT had a reason they used words such as "soon" and "near". The two Greek words translated as "soon and near" mean exactly that............not 2000 years and counting. Therefore, I believe the author of the NT document. 2. Matthew 16:28...............Some of those people in Jesus' audience that day are not still living today. Therefore I believe When Jesus told his audience, "some standing here" (that day in his audience) would live to see his return. 3. Matthew 10:23....................The people (the 12) given the commission to go to the cities of Israel (not to the gentiles, but the lost sheep of Israel) would not finish their mission prior Jesus' return. I believe Jesus, not what I have been taught all of my life. 4. Matthew 24:34.......................Who was the audience when Jesus spoke those words? What were the specific questions presented to Jesus? When did Jesus say it would occur? I believe Jesus, not the many preachers, teachers and end time pendants who taught me all of my life. Mr. Sproul was key in helping me to reach the conclusions I have reached back in the ealy 2000's. His presentation, if studied out to its logical conclusion's along with the biblical text is paramount to defend the deity of Christ and the Inspiration/authority of scripture from the atheist and agnostics along with end time prophecy pundits. Good luck in your journey!

2 Thessalonians Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of [b]sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits [c]as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Revelation 6:11 (KJV) [11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

@@magriffing3497 Christ is coming to earth once. We are told he will return the same way he left and he only left once. When he arrives there will be a rapture and the kingdom will be established in Jerusalem. This why he taught us to pray for god's kingdom to come. Those who are resurrected in the first resurrection rule as kings and priests ON EARTH. (Rev 20:4-6, Rev 5:10) The scriptures do indicate that there is time between the time of the rapture and final day of God's wrath. (Read Rev. chapter 14) Lot lived thru ungodly days and was rescued at the last moment. Noah lived in a violent world and he too was rescued at the last moment. We too will live through tribulation and will face the Anti-Christ. (See Rev. 20:4-6 - those resurrected have already faced the Anti-Christ) The prophecy of the mark of the beast was given to John 30 years after the destruction of Jerusalem, so we know that these saints that are resurrected are from our last days and not from the first century. We know the resurrection occurs before the rapture. If the FIRST resurrection as it is called in the scriptures occurs in the millennium as we are told in Revelation chapter 20, then a pre-tribulation rapture is impossible.

I would have had a million questions for Mr. Sproul. I love and respect him so much. I am a dispensationalist but I learned so much from his teachings. The consequence of ideas being one of my favorites. I do find it interesting, nowhere does the Bible come right out and say Jesus's return will happen in two stages rapture/planting his feet on the Mt. Of Olives, but nowhere does it come right out and say Jesus will come to earth twice, something we all believe. As a lamb to take away the sins of the world/on the clouds with great power and glory. I don't consider the rapture as his return at any rate. I believe the rapture is the rapture. An event that stands on its own. The mystery doctrine of Paul. And all previous doctrines of his return are spicific to his return where Israel says "blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord"

God’s return can be looked at in at least two ways, both ones fulfilled the prophecy of his return before the apostles perish. First theory Christ died on the cross and went to paradise and returned in three days. Second theory is he returned as the Holy Spirit and is governing his people. The Scriptures below was fulfilled on the cross. 1 Corinthians 15:23-25 English Standard Version 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. 24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.

I agree with Dr. Sproul's presentation. However, when he criticizes the partial preterists for spiritualizing the second coming of the Lord, he is guilty of the same thing when he talks about the Millennium in the Book of Revelation. The problem with most Reformed Theologians is that even though they got the doctrine of God and Salvation right, they simply continued embracing the Augustian and Aquinian view of biblical prophecy when it came to the End Times. It wasn't till the third wave of the Reformation, that of the Anabaptists, that the correct doctrine of believers baptism and a futuristic view of the End Times began to be taught. Infant Baptism is merely a carry over of the Catholic ritual. You see it in the Lutheran and Reformed traditions. Apparently, that aspect of theology was not a priority during the initial stages of the Reformation. Unfortunately, they never really took the time to examine the two doctrines from a fresh perspective, despite the fact that the NT is so clear regarding believers baptism by immersion as Paul illustrates it in Romans 6.

@misterbobby8913

Since Christ said that no man knows the day or hour, Paul could not have know that he would be alive during that event.

Jon-Paul Leigh, many teachers claim the Rapture doctrine is recent, so it must be false, and they usually cite Darby or others in the 1800s as proof. However, they never mention the elephant in the room called the Roman Catholic Church, which adopted Augustine’s Amillennial doctrines very early and enforced them on everyone. By the way, this teacher’s own doctrine derived from Augustine’s views. The Rapture doctrine (along with Dispensationalism) appeared not long after the Protestant Reformation when men could read Bibles in their own language again and discuss what God said rather than what Popes forced them to believe.

Again the high priest was questioning Him, and saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?” And Jesus said, “I am; and you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.”” (Mar 14:61-62, NASB)

I don't get it

What an incredibly knowledgeable man of God.🙏🏼❤️

A question no one likes to answer when I ask is, "Are the living the only ones who have sight, hearing and speech?"

maybe because it's a loaded question.

If you're talking about those who have gone on. They too have the same characteristics as the living.

A simple reading of Revelation(which was a vision written in chronological order) leads to PreTrib Rapture. Not a reason to divide over, though. Love me some R.C. Sproul

There was a resurrection when Jesus died. Matthew 27:52 The tombs also were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised. 53 After his resurrection they came out of their tombs and entered the holy city and appeared to many.

He doesn’t believe some believers will not see death, like Enoch and Elijah. He doesn’t believe that God often times takes away into safety His people before a destruction.

You are correct about Enoch and Elijah but were the rest of the Israelites taken with them ? That doesn't give relevance to a pre trib rapture.

The tribulation is not Gods wrath it is the work of man under the antichrist. The wrath of God happens after the second coming and the rapture

Will all eyes see Him coming ... The earth will be destroyed... Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Revelation 1:7 -What would happened at the second coming of Christ ... Will there be any survivors on earth ... But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the h-eavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 2 Peter 3:10-13 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Revelation 6:16,17 -Where the remaining Christians for the coming of the Lord will go ... For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. We will all be caught up together with them in clouds, to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. So comfort one another with these words. 1 Thessalonians chapter 4: 15-18 -Those who died and those who will die at Christ's return from their sins what will happen to them. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment ... Hebrews 9:27 I saw the dead, great and small, appearing before the throne. Books were opened. Another book was also opened: the book of life. The dead were judged, each according to his deeds, according to what was written in these books. The sea had given up its castaways, death and the realm of the dead had given up those they held. And all were judged, each according to his deeds. Revelation 20:12,13 In Christ Alone.
