Where is the rapture in the Old Testament?

There are no prophecies about the Church in the OT.   So there would be no mention of the rapture of the Church in the OT.

What's the purpose of the rapture?

Hi n2thelight,

The purpose of the rapture, the catching away, is for the mature Body of Christ to go with the Head of the Body to the third heaven where the Lord will be enthroned amid heaven`s acclaim. There the Lord will take up the judgment authority given by the Father and with His Body bring judgment upon the fallen angels, and also upon the world system. Hallelujah!!!!

Marilyn.

So when Christ asked,have you not read,what was He talking about?

The judgement does not happen until after the mil,with the exception of the 7000(angels)that die instantly at the return of Christ.

The Church is a redeemed community who have been born again by faith in Jesus Christ.

Yes, but there is no mention of the Church.   

The OT prophets speak of the first and second coming, the restoration of Israel/Judah, the Tribulation, the Millennium and the New Heavens and New Earth, but they were not given any knowledge about the Church.   The church did not exist until Acts 2.
