I don't ever remember reading the word religion in the Bible, though the word Bible is never in the Bible either, nor is the word rapture, for some reason.
Is the word rapture mentioned in the Bible?
A:No. The word 'rapture' is not in the Bible, nor is the modern concept of a "Rapture" of Christians mentioned or discussed. Rapture is a theological creation of John Nelson Darby, the nineteenth-century founder of the Plymouth Brethren. Interestingly, although few people belong the the Plymouth Brethren Church, many Christians believe in its founder's most enduring theological creation, the Rapture.
What is the explanation of the Rapture in the Bible?
Another answer from our community:I search the KJV Bible for the word "Rapture" and it's nowhere to be found. So there's no explanation of the word "Rapture", except maybe it's an invention of some delusional mind.

Who came up with the word rapture?
The word "rapture" in the context of a theological or religious event is believed to have originated from the Latin word "raptura," which means "seizing" or "abduction." It has been used to refer to the belief in the sudden gathering of believers into heaven during the End Times in Christian theology.
How many times does rapiemur appear in Revelation?
None that I have found. It is a Latin verb found in the Latin Vulgate and was used in that translation in 1 Thess. 4:17. The English translation is rapture and that word is not used in the Bible anywhere.
Is it ok to use the word rapture?
It should be. It's usually okay to say words like hell and rapture. If you say, "go to hell", or something then it's a bad word. But if you say, "I don't want to go to hell", or "I won't die in the rapture", then it should be okay.

All those who live by the word will go. The rapture is a fancy way of saying meeting the Lord.
Does the bible ever say that the coming of christ is to be called the rapture?
There are six occurrences of the word rapture in the Bible; Psalms 28:7, Psalms 45:15, Psalms 51:8, Proverbs 5:19, Song of Songs 2:3 and Luke 1:67. Each of these is making reference to "rapture" in the context of joy and delight. The original root word for rapture meant to be carried away. Theologians have used rapture to describe the taking up of the faithful in Revelation though the word itself does not appear there.
How many times does the word 'rapture' appear in the Bible?
The word "rapture" is not in the King James Version of the Bible. It is a word invented later to describe what takes place in 1 Thessalonians 4:17, which says, "Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. In the same manner, the Bible does not contain the word "omnipotent," yet God is all-powerful, and the word "omnipotent" means "all-powerful." The Bible does not contain the word "omniscient," but God is all-knowing, and "omniscient" mean "all-knowing."
What are the events that signal the rapture?
None. The word Rapture is not in the Bible. On the other hand, the Bible does say that Christ will return "like a thief in the night." The parable of the 10 virgins (or unmarried women) tells of the groom coming in secret at night, at any time, to take his betrothed away. Many Biblical scholars see this as a parable describing the Rapture. The answer is the same, though: there are no events that "signal" the Rapture even in this context.
