Since the beginning of the church, Bible believers have discussed the return of Christ. The Apostle Paul admonishes the church in Rome to prepare for the return of Christ in Romans 13:11, “And that, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.” And yet, despite Paul’s appeal to Christ’s imminent return, theologians still debate if and when Jesus will return and under what circumstances.
Today Brandon Briscoe, Provost of Living Faith Bible Institute has invited Pastor Sam Miles, President of LFBI to discuss the imminent return of Christ, a pretribulation rapture, and to ask the questions like, “What is the order of the end times events? What is the rapture?” and, “Why is the topic of the ‘rapture of the church’ so significant to Christians?”
