This thread will be about the LDS belief of a rapture.
Thank you.

The end times is a huge topic. do you have a more specific question or should I suggest about 10 books to read?
10 books would be nice, but I have a bit on my reading plate right now...
How about a series of questions?
Do you believe in a rapture?

I'm not to learned in the subject. All I can give you at the moment without some research is that we don't believe in the 'rapture' idea that some fundamentalist Christians believe in.

If you are referring to the Millenium, I can give you a couple key points we believe:
  • The ushering in of the Millennium will occur with the Second Coming of Christ
  • Christ will reign on earth for the space of a thousand years
  • In the Millenium, Satan will be bound and unable to tempt any person
There isn't any mention of the 'rapture' in any LDS services that I know of.

This event is in our LDS scriptures as well as the Bible and is referred to as being "caught up" or a "catching away" of the saints.

It's there it's just not discussed in LDS meetings at all for some reason....

I'll post the scriptures and let you decide what you think or make of it....

And yes we do believe we will literally disappear, as the LDS scriptures state....
