The rapture isnt in the Bible at all. Revelation talks about the end of the world, but the whole people instantly poofing into heaven thing isnt mentioned.

I mean it mentions some will be gone in the twinkling of an eye, and two will be in a field then one will be gone.
It’s interesting that “the rapture” isn’t a thing like modern Christianity as told us…

The rapture as its own idea came around about 1830 in America according to wiki. And is an interpretation of a greek term in 1 thessalonians. But most denominations don’t agree with the theology behind it. Its mostly an evangelical thing.
