Do you believe in the rapture? If so, when do you think it will happen?

Yes, based on many passages in the bible. As far as when it will happen that is the mystery. We are not to know for the same reason we are not to know the time and date of our death. Since salvation is based on being born-again and that can happen at anytime in our lives God doesn't want us to live our life for ourselves then accept Him at the last minute to obtain salvation. He wants us to accept Him now since we are not promised tomorrow.

I have read the Revelation of Saint John the Divine and have come to a very stark conclusion. This, for your information, was as a result of reading this Bible Chapter many, many times.

It is known that John was sick while he received the Revelation. He was staying on an island in the Aegean. Given the horror of the images depicted by John, I have come to the conclusion that he was suffering from a severe fever dream.

We've all had fever dreams. They're bone terrifying and make anything written and filmed by Wes Craven look like a walk in the park.

John was sick. He had a horrific nightmare. Consequently, I do not believe we should take any stock in the machinations of his feverish imagination

I don't believe there is any Biblical mention of the word "rapture". It is a concept dreamed up by modern Christians that want to believe that God will not allow them to face the same kind of persecution and torture at the end of the "church age" as early Christians faced at the beginning of it. Furthermore I would bet dollars to donuts that if such persecution were instituted today, church attendance would drop so drastically by next meeting day that you would definitely be able to get a great parking place !

Yes, I believe in the Rapture. But because the Scripture says that no man will know the day or the hour, all we can do is look for the signs of His coming and they are all around us! Don't believe me? Look arouind and consider the status quo and compare it to the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. Compare these sayings to world news and events and you'll know just how close it truly is!

Rapture. Ha. Yet another of hundreds of end-of-the-world things.

Other "raptures" have come and gone - and nothing happened other than a lot of people allowed themselves to be fooled by EOTW nonsense.

There must be a way to make money off this.

Aha! All people who truly believe this, walk the talk and give me all your worldly possesions.

No one knows the day or the hour.

Matthew Ch 24

V 36 But if that day and hour no one knows,

not even the angels of Heaven, but my Father only.

To get a full perspective of any scripture,

you should always read the whole chapter.

Many preachers take scriptures out of context.

Dr. Christian Harfouche has the best "truth" message &

literature I have found yet. I got fed up with opinionated doctrins that have perverted Christianity into something that's wussy/religious & nearly faithless.

I do know what you're talking about, but, I have rapture here on earth. I have 2 wonderful daughter's, and a beautiful healthy brand new granddaughter that takes my breath away. What could be any better when my heart is so filled with love ??? ~

Greetings,

Of course the rapture is to looked at as a literal occurence which will take place prior to the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

a work in progress

The teaching of the "secret rapture" is a false doctrine slipped into the church by the cunning ways of the devil. Do not believe it. Jesus clearly states that every eye shall hear and see the coming. It is going to be a noisy one-- if you need more help on this please contact me @ conquerer_t1000@yahoo.com
