Jesus is coming back some day to take his followers home. But when's it going to happen?

Key Points:

  • The “rapture” refers to the time when Jesus comes back to take believers away from the earth. 1 Thessalonians 4:17
  • “Premillennialism” refers to the belief that we are currently living before the tribulation and millennial reign. Revelation 20:1-6
  • When it comes to when the rapture will happen, there are three options: pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation, and post-tribulation.
