that is verry kind of you

Twenty-three percent of the 208 million adults in America identify themselves as either Pentecostal or Charismatic Christians [a.k.a. Rapture-ready]. In the event of the Rapture up to 50 million workers will be leaving their jobs without clocking out. The number of positions vacated will be five times as many needed to wipe out the country’s unemployment, leaving the rest of us in a workers’ paradise. Affirmative action be damned! It’s “trickle up” economics at work here.
this still cracks me up though

Here is something to think about: Did not the Jews write the the Bible???? And is it not also true that most of them don't believe in the rapture OR Jesus Christ? I think the Bible was written by Jews to trick the non-Jews. Hey, Don't misunderstand me, I do BELIEVE in Jesus CHRIST!!!But ,I believe the Bible has been tampered with for the purpose of dividing up the people on petty issues ,so that they will never become united on the the main issues, like #1 LOVE GOD, and #2 LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF: Remember that these two things were the main teachings of Jesus Christ, everything else sort of connects up to those two things. That alone would stop all wars.and fighting of any kind among all the people. The RAPTURE is not a main teaching.Jesus never even mentioned a RAPTURE. Why does some one want to make it a main issue to divide up our brothers and sisters.

What if you had 2 son's Would you pick one as a favorite? And suppose that no matter how he acted , even if he behave like a Horse's behind, you still kept him as your favorite, Above the other son?? The jews says they are Gods special people. Above the rest of us. NOW< I don't think God ever said that , I don't think that Jesus taught that either.

But that does not stop me from trying to be your neighbor ,whether you believe that or if you believe the RAPTURE or NOT.

Myself ,I don't believe in leaving this planet while still in the flesh ,unless you get a ride on some kind of space ship.(Now, I believe THAT is possible and may happen)(probably will happen) Now if you die first and shed the earthly body, you don't need a space ship, the spirit doesn't seem to weigh any thing and could fly any where without a space ship.Yes, I know God can do miracles, But why would you want to ride on clouds with an earthly body, it is too heavy for riding on clouds, it won't float very good, kind of like floating a rock on water, better to get a piece of wood for that.(Smiles)

But, I don't think you are going to lose everlasting life if you don't agree with me over this SMALL issue.(Rapture) But ,If you do not love God or your neighbor, Then I would be concerned for your future!!

Hey, I am not trying to destroy your faith in GOD, But ,I am your neighbor, and I allow for you to believe your way ,without going to Hell for believing that way.OK???

I think you will go to HEAVEN if you LOVE GOD and YOUR NEIGHBOR like Jesus said we should do. Don't sweat the SMALL STUFF, but make sure you do those two things real WELL.

Please put down The Protocalls Of The Elders Of Zion, it was a HOAX;^]

Great post

Since Mr Turtlepoet wants to have Posted: The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, He should post them himself, since they would fit in nicely with the Rapture scheme in the One world order efforts.(seriously)

The folks who want the RAPTURE make IN FACT get What they(wish) thought they wanted, but ,when it comes to them, they may when it is too late regret that they wished for it.I heard that there are some rascals ,who have a plan to use holograms and maybe even electromagnetic pulse weapons to send them to the promised land in a way they had not bargained for, while they innocently meet somewhere waiting for their promised RAPTURE!!(Called depopulation) They would be able to go sit on a cloud then ,but without the body.

I really would not blame you if you thought that this was far fetched. But at least you heard it here second(this idea has already been in print )

dont be so smug honey..the look may be on your face.

What if the rapture all ready happened and this is hell?

WTF are you talking about? The Protocalls were written by non jews in an attempt to stir violence against jews, that is historical fact. It had nothing to do with rapture, it had to do with convincing people jews wanted to take over the world, the same slander you're out here spitting about the jews. Anyone who praises christ only to bad mouth the jews is in league with the false prophets, THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS;^]

so are you saying that people or governments will do things to manipulate others to achieve an end? thats just crazy consciracy talk

Personally,I believe the jews wrote the: Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion: AND GOT FOUND OUT!!! Think about this: If they got found out on a matter that SERIOUS, OF course they are not going to admit it!!!That would be their (for sure) SIGNED death WARRANT. I am convinced that Zionism created the RAPTURE, since the word RAPTURE is not in the bible, although the idea of the rapture could be interpreted to be such. But ,I am convinced that the elders of Zion had their hand in tampering the bible in different places to fool the Gentiles into thinking that God loved some of his children more than others because of their race.(now that is true racism at its best)The Bible shows the jews to be more favored by God than NON jews. Remember jews wrote the bible, not GOD. I don't believe God favors the jews more than non jews, that would be racism at the top of the line!! God loves all his children equally.jews or non jews. But they also need to love one another too. jews and non jews need to love one another. that is God's way.

PLEASE SHOW ME THE SCRIPTURE IN THE BIBLE THAT discuses this rapture theory.(ill ck back in about a century)
Its a Doctrine of man, and has nothing to do with bible teaching.

I agree with Mr Rambill, I do not personally think that the bible teaches a Rapture either, But I do know about a verse where during the last trumpet , some would meet the Lord in the air, or something close to that, but <I don't think that happens while they are in a flesh body.,unless the Lord picked them up in a space ship. I am not trying to be a smart alec, but ,I am serious. But I also don't think the Lord will condemn you to hell, if you disagree with me. I think the Lord judges us by our intentions, what our intent is. If our intentions are good, I don't think these SMALL differences are any BIG DEAL! As long as we love GOD and we love our neighbor in spite of our differences. I don't think we need all these denominations, I personally, don't believe Jesus would belong to any particular denomination ,do you? If he was walking around here?

I think if jesus were walking around in these times he would be watched by homeland securty

Shouldn't this be moved to the religion forums?

Naw I dont think since our great government has done away with the seperation of church and state its all intertwined though the conversation has been floweing more towards the christe than I intended.......I think the original post is more current events

If you're an atheist, why do you care so much about raptures and why do you read the bible....and...do you use God's name in vain..and Jesus'..and do you celebrate Christmas or have Easter dinner...I'll bet you'd be real pi**ed if you didn't holiday pay for those Christian Holidays....

Puh-lease!! No one gets holiday pay for Easter anyway. As far as I am concerned, the establishment of Christmas as a federal holiday is a violation of the 1st Amendment, because it's very name promotes one religion over any other. Although, at the state level, a prohibition would not be required, except that most state constitutions mimic the original. This is not the first time that I've heard this "holiday overtime" rationale, and it's pretty weak. Regardless, they all started as "heathen" holidays.
