In 1833 a pastor named John Nelson Darby fell off his horse, hit his head, and created the Doctrine of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Saints.
According to theologian John MacArthur, there are no verses that directly state a Pre-Tribulation Rapture, but he fervently believes it will occur that way.
Since 1833, many groups have predicted Rapture dates to no avail.
In 1843 and 1844 a group called the Millerites determined the biblical Rapture would occur. They waited patiently and nothing happened. That group disbanded, but some kept up the end time’s postulating becoming known as the Seventh Day Adventists (SDA’s). Their prophet was Ellen White.
The term “Investigative Judgment” is the SDA’s way of blaming God for missing their prediction.
The Jehovah’s Witnesses have many failed predictions, including 1874, 1914, 1925, 1938, 1942, 1975, 1984 and before 2000. They were wrong each time.
Edgar Whisenant predicted the rapture would occur in 1988, based on forty years from 1948 (when Israel was founded), sometime between September 11 and the 13th. Edgar doubled down in 1989, but was wrong again.
I saw billboards paid for by Harold Camping that the Rapture would occur May 21, 2011.
There are many predicting a Pre-Tribulation Rapture will occur nearly every day of the year. They drive us to distraction. Please don't give these errant date setters any money.
When things get bad, please don’t listen to those people, and take this advice:
Your dead will live, my corpses will rise; awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the morning dew, and the earth will bring the ghosts to life. Come, my people, enter your rooms, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourselves for a little while until the wrath is past. For see! ADONAI emerges from his place to punish those on earth for their sin. Then the earth will reveal the blood shed on it and no longer conceal its slain. Isaiah 26:19–21 (CJB)
When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been put to death for proclaiming the Word of God, that is, for bearing witness. They cried out in a loud voice, “Sovereign Ruler, HaKadosh, the True One, how long will it be before you judge the people living on earth and avenge our blood?” Each of them was given a white robe; and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow-servants should be reached, of their brothers who would be killed, just as they had been. Revelation 6:9-12 (CJB)
