Q - Will my children be raptured?

A - Many prophetic writers make blanket statements that all children will be raptured.

I do not foresee an all-inclusive rapture of every child.

However, I do look for the children of Christians to be raptured because of a blessing from their parents' faith. I recall two situations in the Bible when God blessed people because of an association. The first example is the instance when the Egyptian's house was blessed because Joseph was his servant (Gen. 39:5) and the other example is when the house of Obededom was blessed because the Ark of the Lord remained on his property for three months (2 Sam. 6:11). The reverse of this is also true. When King David sinned, his whole house was cursed. David's infant son died and his son Absalom rebelled against him. God himself said that He would visit judgment to the third and fourth generations for those who turn against Him (Ex. 20:5).

If the father or the mother of a child is a born again Christian then that child will be taken in the Rapture. Don't worry if your child is not home or not with you when the Rapture takes place Jesus will make sure your child gets up to heaven safe and sound.

1 Corinthians 7:14
For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

Your children are your inheritance. (Psalm 127:3)

The Bible is not specific in saying that children will be raptured; however, one can come to a conclusion based upon how God dealt with the preservation of His people from impending judgement in the Old Testament. We read in the Bible that God is the same yesterday, today and forever, and He changes not. (Hebrews 13:8, Malachi 3:6)

Ungodly parents only bring judgment to their children, so can you imagine how unsaved parents will react when they witness the rapture of Christian parents and their children while they and their children remain behind to face 7 years of tribulation and most likely death. This is real people wake up and change your ways for your children's sake!

The two greatest biblical examples of God's wrath being poured out on man both involved the saving of the righteous and their children. When Noah got into the ark, his children accompanied him. When Lot left Sodom, his two daughters went with him. In both cases, all of the children who remained behind perished.

Just as you work to financially support your children, your faith in God works to support your children who are under the age of accountability--in other words, until they are able to choose for themselves whom they will follow you choose for them.

A few words to Christian women that are pregnant, God will not abort your unborn baby when you are changed into your new Heavenly body, I don't know the details of how he will accomplish this but he will somehow remove your unborn baby and give it a new body and place it in your arms safe and sound and you will take it with you in the Rapture.
