How many Christians will be raptured?

Answer 1

All Christians. The Bible says who ever believes Jesus Christ is the son of God and died as a sacrifice for sin will go to heaven/have eternal life. This is also what Jesus taught. Jesus said this:

John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Answer 2

Rev 7:9

* The Great Multitude in White Robes After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.

Answer 3

None, The Rapture is a false teaching. Only the 144,000 virgin male Jews will be protected during the tribulation. Only when God brings his wrath down on the earth is when the followers of Jesus will be removed.

Answer 4

More accurately the question should be 'how many Jehovah's Witnesses believe they will go to heaven?''

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that today there is a only a 'remnant' or small amount who have a heavenly hope. Their number is recorded in the annual statistics published by the Watchtower and as of 2011 was 11,824.

The 11,824 are part of the 144,000 spoken of in Revelation which is believed to be a literal number.

Watchtower 15th August 1996 page 31 says,

''We understand that this heavenly calling continued down through the centuries, though during the so-called Dark Ages, there may have been times when the number of anointed ones were very few. With the reestablishment of true Christianity near the end of the last century, more were called and chosen. But it seems that in the mid-1930's, the full number of the 144,000 was basically completed.''

''at the Memorial celebration in 1935, attended by 63,146, those partaking of the emblems in evidence of their profession to be anointed numbered 52,465. Thirty years later, or in 1965, the attendance was 1,933,089, while the partakers decreased to 11,550. Moving 30 years closer, in 1995 the attendance jumped to 13,147,201, but only 8,645 partook of the bread and the wine. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26) Clearly, as the decades passed, the number of those professing to be of the remnant greatly decreased-some 52,400 in 1935; 11,500 in 1965; 8,600 in 1995''. And 11,824 in 2011.

Answer 5

Christians believe that those among them who are saved will go to heaven, so not all. Of course, the existence of heaven has never been proved, so this can only ever be a comforting belief.
