What do you think when you hear the word rapture? What do you think the reasoning for the rapture will be for the people left behind?

that will the calling of The True Church from the Earth by Jesus.... when the Rapture occurs it will be known for what it is by every one... those left behind will know they have been left behind... and all will know for certain what is happening when Christ returns to the Earth 7 years after the Rapture

Rapture--Fundie Evangelical Protestant hogwash invented in the circus tents of late 19th century America and rejected as garbage by nearly 90% of all Christians. Nobody will be "left behind" because fundie retards aint never goin' nowhere. Rolls eyes

I think of money grabbing, phoney baloney, abusive churches....who push fear on people, to get more money, using/abusing God's name doing so.

The doctrine is a LIE. It is easier than explaining what we are to do WHILe the Antichrist (anti-messiah) is in power and dissenters persecuted...Christian and otherwise.

There was a little girl who was not a prophetess, who had a dream, which started this concept.

The misquoted scripture for meeting Jesus in the air has to do with TIMING. We meet him in the air *at his second coming* moments before touchdown. Only this.

"for the people left behind? " so everyone, as "rapture" will never happen. Oh don't worry they will find some explanations, like "we did a mistake when we did calculate the time, it will happen in 25 years, not this morning" or the same kind of nonsense.

When I hear the word rapture, I think: ah, more christian cultist bullsiht.

When I hear it, I think it's not a biblical term and wonder where that belief/idea came from.

I think of Jurassic Park

There is no rapture.

CHRiSTIANS FLOATING UPWARD TO HEAVEN!
