Do Catholics believe in rapture?
A:The 'Rapture' is a theological invention of John Nelson Darby, the nineteenth-century founder of the Plymouth Brethren. Barbara R. Rossing (The Rapture Exposed) says that Darby's new teaching was that Christ would return twice, first in secret to "Rapture" his church out of the world and up to heaven, then a second time after seven years of global tribulation for non-believers, to establish a Jerusalem-based kingdom on earth. The Catholic Church says that this is heresy, but there are undoubtedly some Catholics who would believe it. Either way, the Rapture has no genuine biblical support, so there is no good reason to believe there will ever be a Rapture.A:No, i don't believe they do. I base this on many comments from catholics that i have received when debating them. However, we do see the rapture in the Bible: Matthew 24:30-36.

Do Lutherans believe in tribulation?
A:The Rapture and the Tribulation are theological inventions of John Nelson Darby, the nineteenth-century founder of the Plymouth Brethren. Barbara R. Rossing (The Rapture Exposed) says that Darby's new teaching was that Christ would return twice, first in secret to "Rapture" his church out of the world and up to heaven, then a second time after seven years of global tribulation for non-believers, to establish a Jerusalem-based kingdom on earth. More recent proponents of the Rapture and the Tribulation saw what they felt were flaws in Darby's scheme, and some altered it to have the Rapture occur mid-tribulation, while others have opted for a post-tribulation Rapture.The Lutheran Church says that this is false theology, whether pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation or post-tribulation. Perhaps there are some Lutherans who would believe it, but either way, the Rapture has no genuine biblical support, so there is no good reason to believe there will ever be a Rapture.

The rapture of the church?
There is no "rapture" of the church, as this is not in the Bible. The rapture is a man made teaching that is based upon the words "caught up" in the book of Thessalonians. (1 Thess. 4) The belief is that the church will be raptured away to heaven before the second coming of Christ Jesus. The problem is, the verse they base this rapture theory on IS describing the physical second coming of Christ. It is AT the second coming of Christ Jesus that the church is "caught up" to meet Jesus in the air, NOT before.
Where in the Bible do they discount the rapture theory?
