Origin of False Secret Rapture

Find out how the lie of Satan called the 'pretribulation rapture' was started. "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, YHWH shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, YHWH shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." - Yahusha Ha'Mashiach, book of Revelation

The following is from: http://www.apocalipsis.org/rap-rebut.htm

1. It contradicts the plain teaching of scripture. The Second Coming, the rapture, and the resurrection of the dead occur at the same time, on the last day. 1 Th 4:14 -18, John 6:39 ff.
2. The idea that the Ekklesia will not go through the great tribulation ignores those Believers who have been martyred down through the ages and those Believers now undergoing persecution throughout the world. It is a doctrine that could only survive in an environment where the Ekklesia is not currently undergoing persecution.
3. If the pre-trib rapture doctrine is false then it means that many Believers will be unprepared for tribulation and persecution when it comes upon them. What makes the Ekklesia in the West so special that it will not undergo persecution?
4. It fosters complacency within the Ekklesia and in the world. It gives those left behind a second chance and is less likely to encourage evangelism and missionary effort because the great commission will be fulfilled by the 144,000 and the two witnesses rather than the Ekklesia. The job of the Great Commission belongs to the Ekklesia.
5. It gives a false interpretation of the place of the Ekklesia and Israel within the scriptures especially in the interpretation of the book of Revelation. Revelation is interpreted more from the point of view of Israel than the Ekklesia (to whom it was written in the first place) see Rev 1:4, 22:16.
6. Because this doctrine is a modern one invented by men (1830). It is not supported by the Ekklesia fathers or any of the major creeds or confessions - The Apostles Creed, the Nicene Creed, the Westminster Confession of Faith etc. It is hardly the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.

Please research Epharaem the Syrian, who in 373 A.D. said, "for the saints and elect of God are gathered, prior to the tribulation that is to come, and are taken to the Lord lest they see the confusion that is to overwhelm the world because of our sins."

There are many other quotes I could provide, but if interested, please start with this one.

God bless.

@CCC4JC,I have indeed researched this subject thoroughly! "the Lord shall appear with great power," the "angelic trumpet precedes him, which shall sound and declare: Arise, O sleeping ones, arise, meet Christ, because the hour of judgment has come!"-Ephraim the Syrian "Nothing remains then, except that the coming of our enemy, Antichrist, appear...."-Ephraim the Syrian. I used to believe this evil and false doctrine. I am here to WARN you so that you won't receive the Wrath of Yahuah.777denny

It is also tragic, since Yahusha warned the HEARERS of eternal consequences for adding and/or taking away from the prophecy of the book of Revelation. But since most "Christians" merely "revere" Their Creator, and not fear Him like He COMMANDED all men to do, they WILL be fearing Him soon enough...777denny

@777denny1 you're nuts.

It's sad people buy into the Pre-Tribulation Rapture theory.
