Why the Rapture Is a Secret Most Christians Miss - Romans 16:25 Explained

B30L4 What does the Bible really say about the Rapture? In this verse-by-verse study of 1 Corinthians 15, discover the secret mystery revealed to the Apostle Paul that the Old Testament prophets never knew about — and why most people confuse the Rapture with the Second Coming. Les Feldick takes us through the closing verses of 1 Corinthians 15, explaining the difference between the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming of Christ. He cross-references Romans 16:25, Deuteronomy 29, Matthew 24, and Titus 2:11-13 to show that the Rapture was a mystery kept secret since the world began — revealed only to Paul. He then moves into 1 Corinthians 16, where Paul teaches that believers are not under the Law of tithing but should give as God has prospered them. Les also addresses the deity of Christ from Titus 2:13, the role of Israel in end-time prophecy, and the believer's hope of resurrection. 📖 KEY TOPICS COVERED: • Why the Rapture was a secret hidden in God — Romans 16:25 explained • Rapture vs Second Coming — what's the difference? • Why Matthew 24 is tribulation ground, not for the Church • 1 Corinthians 15:54-57 — Death swallowed up in victory • The sting of death is sin, the strength of sin is the Law • Titus 2:13 — Proof that Jesus Christ is God • Are Christians required to tithe?
