September 6, 2026 | The End: The Rapture of the Church - Brett Meador

About this sermon

In 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Paul speaks about the coming time when Christians will be caught up, commonly known as the Rapture of the Church, describing it as a key event in the End Times. As we seek to follow Paul’s charge not to be ignorant about the Rapture, we define the terminology, map out the timeline, and conclude by examining how the Bible points to a pre-tribulation Rapture.
