What is Rapture

This is such a topic which every christian and believer is eagerly waiting for, in this way following are several views about this topic.
Christianity isn't a "feeling" or "something to be". It's a way of life. It is giving your life over to God who sacrificed His only Son so that we might not perish. Being a Christian means to have faith and believe without actually seeing.
It is written in the Bible that Jesus will come back and Rapture (take up) His Church in the last days, sometime near the end of the Great Tribulation. Will you be ready?

Do you know what The Rapture is? Christ coming back to take up His Church is mentioned in the Bible a few times. However, the word "Rapture" is not used in the Bible. Here is the dictionary's definition of the word RAPTURE:* The carrying of a person to another place or sphere of existence.* The Rapture, Theology. the experience, anticipated by some fundamentalist Christians, of meeting Christ midway in the air upon his return to earth.* Archaic. The act of carrying offThe Bible warns us that Jesus will return like a Thief in the Night:1 Thessalonian 5:1-3 (New International Version):1 Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
