The rapture is the gathering up of God's people when He returns to get those who love Him

and take them to be with Him in Heaven. There are many different ideas regarding the
Rapture and when it will happen. Many people teach that it will happen before the final seven
years begins. Some teach that it will happen before the Great Tribulation, somewhere in the
middle of the final seven years. A few teach that the rapture will take place at the end of the
tribulation when Jesus Christ returns at the battle of Armageddon.
Lets take a look at the scriptures.
Dan 11:31 And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength,
and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh
desolate. 32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but
the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. 33 And they that
understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by
flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days.
This scripture is talking about the event that happens at the halfway point of the final seven
years. It says; the people that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits. And they
that understand among the people shall instruct many. This is a very strong indication that we
will be here at that event. We will be strong and we will instruct many. We will be able to
help people find God at the very last! Some of us shall fall during this time. God tells us that
those who die in the service of Christ will be blessed!
Dan 7:21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High;
and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.
The same horn is the horn that symbolizes the Antichrist. He will make war with the saints
(us) and prevail against them until the Ancient of days came. This is Jesus Christ returning at
the seventh trumpet at the end of the seven years. Again, it looks an awful lot like we will be
here, and this time right up to the end.
Dan 7:25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the
saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his
hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
