In this sermon we present 10 Biblical reasons why we believe in a Pre-Tribulation rapture of the church.

The Rapture of the Church (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 4:1)

In Revelation 4:1 [https://www.blueletterbible.org/search/preSearch.cfm?Criteria=Revelation+4.1&t=KJV], John is caught up into heaven, picturing the rapture of the church. In this sermon we look at key passages of Scripture on the Rapture to get a detailed Bible picture of this tremendous event in Bible prophecy.

Laodicea: The Lukewarm Church (Revelation 3:14-22)

Exposition of Christ's letter to the church of Laodicea. Powerful challenge concerning the sin of lukewarmness. Very relevant to the 21st century church.

Philadelphia: The Loyal Church (Revelation 3:7-13)

Exposition of Christ's letter to the church at Philadelphia. This letter contains one of the clearest verses in the N.T. that teaches a Pre-Tribulation rapture (Rev. 3:10 [https://www.blueletterbible.org/search/preSearch.cfm?Criteria=Rev.+3.10&t=KJV]).

Sardis: The Lifeless Church (Revelation 3:1-6)

Sardis was a church that had a good reputation but lacked spiritual life and vitality. It presents a powerful challenge to churches that are living off past glory but in reality are devoid of spiritual power.
