Don't shoot me, I am only the messenger. I came across this video yesterday and it has a interesting twist on the Rapture. Even if one doesn't agree, it is a very interesting video nonetheless.

Are you sayin the wise virgins will be lead astray by Lord Jesus ?

watched it whole , OP
Wrong !this is not a new take on the 'rapture'. it is the same incorrect take that is always peddled to people with itching ears.
there is no 'whisked away' rapture.

Descending from Heaven as per 1 Thes 4 does not suggest that He physically comes to earth. The passage only says that those who are resurrected and those who are in Messiah will be gathered to Him in the air.
There is no definitive scripture that says God intends to take His people up to heaven in these end times. There are, in fact quite a few that say He won't! John 3:13, John 17:15, +
Also, with the 'rapture' belief, you miss out on the amazing promises of God, of how He will protect and bless His faithful people, as they live in peace and prosperity in all of the holy Land.
Your disagreement with the scriptures I quoted, is merely your opinion.Your use of these is extremely flawed. While it is true that none has ascended to heaven per John 3:13, that doesn't mean no one has gone to heaven. Enoch and Elijah for two. But they did not ascend, they were taken. The context of that passage is that no one of their own steam has ascended to Heaven. Only the Lord. The scripture does say that there will be those taken. That is it meaning of the Greek Harpazo and Latin Raptus. And John 17:15, Yeshua's prayer was answered. None of the Disciples were taken out. They all eventually died here on earth. That doesn't mean they won't be resurrected and taken at a later time.
NO, I am not saying that!So you are then saying that salvation is conditional on one's view of eschatology?
This is a shockingly bad and unchristian idea. I sure hope you don't seriously consider it.If there is no pre-trib rapture, then why worry? Just wait till things come apart and then jump on the Christian bandwagon. Since there is no pre-trib removal of the righteous, might as well raise hell now and get in line later when one sees thing going crazy. If the rapture position is true, then what better motivation to cling to the faith for fear of not partaking in it?
This is another example of an assumption, stated as fact.Yeshua, who is now our High Priest, took those resurrected righteous to the Father as the First Fruits of the harvest of the saints. And there is not one verse that counters that assumption. So right there, we have a pre-trib rapture of the saints that occurred after Yeshua's death that paid the penalty.
It was those darn mice that made it disappear - it was Swiss cheeseNo matter what type of cheese we insist the moon is made of..... the fact that there is no ball of cheese in the sky will not change.
