The Rapture Myth

Pastor Greg Locke delivered a sermon refuting the belief in a secret rapture on September 23, 2025, citing historical failures of such predictions. He emphasized that the rapture is not a secret event but a public return of Christ, referencing Matthew 24:36 and Acts 1:11. Pastor Locke argued that the rapture is often used for manipulation and fear, which undermines prophetic credibility. He highlighted the significance of Jewish feasts in fulfilling Jesus' mission, not predicting His return. Pastor Locke concluded by urging believers to be ready for Christ's second coming, emphasizing the importance of living a life prepared for persecution and spiritual warfare.
