The pre-tribulation Rapture, the belief that Jesus will secretly return to evacuate Christians before a period of great tribulation, is the single most recent major doctrine in Christianity. It was not taught by any Church Father. No medieval theologian. Not Luther. Not Calvin. Not Wesley. Nobody until John Nelson Darby in 1830. One man invented it. One Bible (the Scofield Reference Bible, 1909) has spread it to millions. And novels and movies have turned it into the default eschatology of American evangelicalism. The video outlines the complete history and reveals the single Greek word in 1 Thessalonians 4 that Rapture theology completely overlooks.
