Do you believe the rapture will happen in your lifetime?

Hello, James:

I'm in my late sixties, and there are a few more prophecies to fulfill before the resurrection occurs.

If I live to that glorious moment when God rescues us from this destroyed planet, wonderful! However, if I rest in the grave until He awakens me for that celestial journey, that is fine, too.

You can learn the EXACT timing of the Cosmic Conflict in the Bible code. That information was known before the time of Christ, and by first and second century Christians.

We have forgotten but God reminds us in a encoded message: http://abiblecode.com/

Shalom, peace in Jesus, Ben Yeshua

yes God gave signs to look for and there are here.

God also said once the signs appear it will happen quickly as a women who gives birth. Once the birth pains start it will be a short amount of time for the baby to appear.

With in the next 25 years I believe we will see Jesus come to earth and start his 1000 year reign. We will also see the rapture and the tribulation period and the antichrist.

I can not tell you the exact day or hour or year.

There is one prophecy Jesus did say was.

Matt. 24:32-33 we can tell the seasons by the signs that appear. the leaves start turning colors and the temperatures get cooler we know fall is near.

Matt. 24:34 the generation that sees these signs will not pass til all be fulfilled.

Israel was the start when they were returned to the land in 1948.

A person alive in 1948 who was 20 would not die out until he was about 90 years old. The person who was 20 in 1948, his generation will not die out until about 2018.

The signs are there, Israel is seeking to rebuild the temple, governments are seeking to mark people with ID Chips. The middle east nations are seeking nuclear weapons and almost have access to them. Russia is seeking and helping middle east countries as was predicted.

Russia and middle east countries are preparing to attack Israel by wiping them off the earth as was predicted. Russia has already made the claim they will help Iran and other nations against the US and Israel. Ezekiel chapters 38 and 39. Psalms chapter 83

It is getting very close to the rapture and the tribulation as predicted.

No, in studying the bible the book that refers to the rapture and the end of days can actually be taken as an historical account of what was actually going on in the world at that time the book was written. There was a lot of fighting and this was what the author of the book thought was going to happen, however, he died before the fighting and turmoil was concluded and that's how we get this notion of the rapture. So no, I do not think it is going to happen in my lifetime. Christian churches like to proclaim this belief because most Christian churches are based on the minister's or founder of that church's individual beliefs; which in turn, leads to a nicer house for that minister by making people want to attend church so they are the first part of the rapture that don't need to see the evil part of what happens to the world.

I really hope so, but I kind of doubt it. Waiting for Russia to attack Jerusalem is the big key for me, and they almost did it a few years back and I was sitting on the edge of my seat!! I haven't been keeping up with the news relating to end times prophecy lately tho. My old church back home does a prophecy update ever new years, and it was always really interesting to see how much had developed in just the course of a year. The stage is set tho, it really could happen any moment.

No. People throughout history have believed themselves to be at "The End Times", it's no more likely now than ever. I don't know why everyone's in such a hurry for ending time, either, the most realistic endtime I can imagine involves nuclear weapons (or some similar disaster) and that is bloody scary indeed. (see post below mine to understand why this whole idea of a Rapture triggered by war should be abandoned by Christians. Jesus said "love one another," not "bomb the hell out of one another" or "incite violence so that I'll come back")

(btw the modern conception of the "rapture" is extremely loosely related to actual Christianity. so why is it so widespread? :/)

I believe it absolutely will within the next decade. As fast as Jesus is being rejected, it is like sub-light speed and really makes me excited to see it won't be long.

Lu:17:25: But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.

Lu:17:26: And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

Lu:17:27: They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

Lu:17:28: Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

Lu:17:29: But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

Lu:17:30: Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Lu:17:31: In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

Lu:17:32: Remember Lot's wife.

Lu:17:33: Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

Lu:17:34: I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

Lu:17:35: Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Lu:17:36: Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Lu:17:37: And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

Take care and may God bless you spiritually.

I believe in an end to all things. Say, wouldn't the chances of the rapture happening in this age be slimmer than winning the lottery or getting eaten by a bear in your own back yard? Just some food for thought.

Yes I do. The 3rd Temple is ready to be made and some of it already is but just not put together where it needs to go. I do believe we are so close. Watch Israel and read the bible and then you will see things that point to it coming even sooner than many believe. Other things point to it but if you want to know them you could always email me. I like to talk about this to others christians.

No, the concept of the rapture is nonsense unsupported by any evidence.

BTW, this is an open forum. If you want to exclude answers you don't like, go post in a christian forum.

I heard that in the Bible that now one will know, and it will happen in the blink of an eye when you are not expecting it. I worry about it all the time, so probably not my life time.
