Good afternoon! From a fellow pastor I was sent this quote out of J.R. Graves' book The Parable & Prophecies of Christ Explained:
Thanks for any light you can shed.

1. Will all Christians of all age compose the Bride of Christ? and (2) will all Christians at the advent of Christ be "caught away to meet Him in the air?" He is now thoroughly satisfied that these questions should be answered in the negative.
(page 12, Introduction, Parables & Prophecies, Graves)
I have this book but have not read it yet. Does anyone here hold a view of a partial rapture of the saints? This is the first time I've run into this view, although I am familiar with the "Baptist Bride" viewpoint that is expressed in point 1. I'd be interested in discussing this to see if I can figure out the angle.(page 12, Introduction, Parables & Prophecies, Graves)
Thanks for any light you can shed.
