The Silence of Scripture on a Secret Rapture
8 Sep 2019
The Word "rapture" doesn't appear in the Bible. It comes from the Latin Vulgate, a Latin translation of the Scripture by a man named Jerome. The words "caught up" in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 are translated by Jerome in the Vulgate into the Latin word "rapturo," which is the Latin word from which we get our English word “rapture."
