Common mistakes
The faithful will rapture to heaven.The faithful will be raptured to heaven.
rapture 是及物动词，意为“使（某人）被提到天堂”，施动者是上帝或基督；当主语为信徒时，必须用被动语态 be raptured，表示“被提”，而不能像不及物动词一样用于主动形式。
God will rapture the believers up to heaven.God will rapture the believers to heaven.
rapture 本身已包含“提到天上”的方位含义，后面直接接 to heaven 即可，再加 up 是受 take up 表达的影响，造成语义重复，应删去。
