A . DURING THE RAPTURE , CHRIST WILL APPEAR IN THE
AIR .
It is clear in 1 Thessalonians 4:16a that Jesus Christ Himself will appear . The Bible says ,
1 Thessalonians 4:16a ( 1`IIV ) " For the Lord himsel will come down from heaven , "
Why do you think Christ Himself will personally come down from heaven to gather up the Christians and bring them to himself ?

At the time of the Rapture , Jesus Christ will have one thing in mind : to gather up both those dead and alive who have believed in Him . Like a bridegroom who comes for his bride , or the father looking for his son , Christ Himself will come to gather up His followers . There is no way that Jesus would delegate that task to anyone else . He promised to come for us to welcome us to Himself . When He comes , it will be out of great respect and love . for those of us who have believed in Him .
