You must interpret the Bible in context. Are you speaking of Mathew 24:39-42? You are correct, the taken in these verses are just like those taken in the flood ( Matt. 24:38); they die. Jesus was talking to the Jews about His second coming. The rapture of the church is not His second coming as He will not touch the earth at that time.
1Th 4:17 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.
Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
There are many more passages that point to the church being raptured up before the tribulation period.
This is a massive lie. Jesus seals His church to survive the terrors of that day.
What did Jesus say about the great tribulation? Matthew 17:34-37 Jesus says the "taken" are dead, not raptured.
Divine intervention occurs at the end, not before. The second coming of Christ happens after the great tribulation, when times up.
1Th 4:17 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.
Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
