The Post-Tribulation Rapture | Lesson 167

In our series on the book of Revelation, Pastor James Knox discusses the clear examples and Biblical precedents for the raising up of dead and living saints to be with the Lord. In answer to the question, "Do you believe the rapture will be before or after the tribulation?" the answer from the Bible may be simply, "Yes."

In this lesson, Brother James addresses the different views on the rapture and presents a perspective that sees the Lord’s harvest in three stages: the first fruits (saints who rose after Christ's resurrection), the main harvest (believers raptured before the Great Tribulation), and the gleaning (Tribulation saints). He explores various passages, including Matthew 27 and 1 Thessalonians 4, to support this concept and emphasizes that disagreements on the timing of the rapture should not divide believers who share a common goal of salvation through faith in Christ​.
