dc.description.abstractRapture is the desire of Christian believers to return with Christ to heaven at the second coming. But many scholars are of the opinion that postmodernism has become a negative force capable of blurring the true perception of rapture thereby hindering the readiness for it, particularly in the postmodern age and its deconstructionist theories. Thus, several scholars have dwelled on these negative aspects of postmodernism but few have considered its positive tendencies. The paper examines rapture and the impact of postmodernism on the 21st Century Christian, harping on the concept and salient features. Based on this, the paper interrogates the 21st Century malady and carefully outlines and delineates the peculiarities of both the positive and negative impacts towards rapture. The paper concludes that postmodernism is a force, worldview and movement with negative and positive effects on believers and the impending rapture. It recommends that 21st century Christians should retain their Christian virtues despite the negative features of postmodernism.
