IS THE RAPTURE BIBLICAL?

Welcome to another Episode of Ring Them Bells My early life as a believer was filled with preaching on the end times and living in fear of the tribulation and missing out on the rapture. So much energy and fear put towards a subject that seem to lead me away from the peace Jesus seemed to be offering. But then God... God has led me to a multitude of awesome teachers like Tim Mackie of the ‪@bibleproject‬ And Dr. Michael Heiser Author of the Unseen Realm ‪@DRMSH‬ . Both of which led me to this incredible author and scholar Matthew Halsted and his book "The End of the world as You Know It - What the Bible Really Says About the End Times and Why it is Good News."

Even as we just had a solar eclipse pass over the U.S.A. many thought the end was near and that was Rapture was finally here....again. Over and over again Christians make our faith look foolish with the misuse of the book of Revelation. Let's examine the claims western evangelicals make about the Rapture and see how they line up with the complete narrative of scripture. You Won't Regret it! Stay Tuned! The Beginning is Near!
