What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 11:28am On Dec 08, 2012 |
I was just wondering why christians only talk about blessings, success and prosperity and rarely talk about rapture let alone preparing for it. What if you are left behind after rapture, child of God, what will you do? |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 11:30am On Dec 08, 2012 |
God forbid that i don't make it but i will just not collect the mark of the beast no matter what! |

Todaynatoday: please, can you explain what rapture is and where it is mentioned in the bible?Here's the explanation you seek. ....For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever..... 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 |

Mr_Anony: Wasn't this supposed to have happened during the time of Paul?. . . |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by Todaynatoday: 7:32pm On Dec 08, 2012 |
Mr_Anony:Is rapture for everybody that believes in Christ or for those elect that have been chosen to reign with Jesus Christ? |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by EvilBrain1(m): 7:53pm On Dec 08, 2012 |
Mr_Anony: Right, the Christian zombie apocalypse. You do realize that this rapture stuff is a very recent addition to Christian dogma right? It was basically made up by American Pentecostals early in the 20th century who cherry-picked bible verses to back it up. Before 1900 nobody had even heard of the rapture. The idea has spread so far because it's a very effective way to scare small children and the weak-minded into professing Christianity (it scared the hell out of me until I was about 7) But it, is as are all religious dogmas, complete bullshît. You guys need to grow up (like I did) and face reality. 3 Likes |

If I'm left behind in the rapture? That would be the happiest day of my life!! Hopefully some millionaires near my crib will be raptured so I can take over their bank accounts, houses and posh vehicles. 2 Likes |

Todaynatoday: Is rapture for everybody that believes in Christ or for those elect that have been chosen to reign with Jesus Christ?I don't quite understand the distinction you are trying to make here. Perhaps you may want to explain to me the difference between the believers and the elect |

Mr_Anony: your god inspired paul to make wrong guesses?. . . . |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 11:25pm On Dec 08, 2012 |
Todaynatoday: please, can you explain what rapture is and where it is mentioned in the bible?In the words of Jesus Christ Himself : Mt 24 vs 30-31 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Kjv see also Mk 13 vs 26-27 |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 11:38pm On Dec 08, 2012 |
@ Evil brai, rapture cannot be wished away, Jesus spoke of it Himself. Please be informed. Mtt 24 vs 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away. Kjv |

mazaje:If a thing of that magnitude did happen before now, don't you think there would be a record of it somewhere, anywhere. |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 12:01am On Dec 09, 2012 |
@Todaynatoday the Elect are God's chosen ones. This includes Christ in Is 42 vs 1 nd Mtt 12 vs 17 , all children of God, Col 3 vs 12 and all those anointed by God for special purposes, Is 45 vs 1. |

There would be great pain caused by the anti Christ. Terror shall reign supreme, u won't want to witness it, I assure us. Rev 9 will give u an insight. |

Mr_Anony: What else did Paul get wrong in the bible?. . .He stated something that was obviously wrong. . .Am not grasping as straws but making a valid point |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by MrAnony1(m): 7:20am On Dec 09, 2012 |
mazaje:Read it in context, Paul was writing a letter to comfort his brethren and remind them of the hope that awaits them. It was not a "prophecy". He thought he would see the rapture in his time in the same way many patriarchs of the old testament thought they will see the messiah in their time. 1 Like |

Rossikk:Ok, just remember then ie if u still did not change your stance that if left behind, pls do not take the mark of the beast. It will only give u temporal relief but long term sorrow. |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 12:59pm On Dec 09, 2012 |
mazaje:Paul like other disciples believed Jesus would come back for them then. So they waited expectantly not knowing exactly when He will come |
Re: What If U Are Left Behind After Rapture? by iphy42: 1:02pm On Dec 09, 2012 |
Mr_Anony:Exactly |

iphy42: God forbid that i don't make it but i will just not collect the mark of the beast no matter what! Throw away your laptop,moblie phones,cos those are the marks of the beast. What if the so called rapture( mass alien abduction) is the taking away of a huge numbers of idiots who are willing to be enslaved on another planet? I would rather stay with my fellow humans on this planet than go to some place i dont know. |

Then we would probably save the christian slaves deceived to heaven......that is if they are still alive |

Mr_Anony:I'm talking about the 144,000 souls that have been chosen to reign with Jesus Christ. [b]Revelation 7:1-8 King James Version (KJV) 7 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. 2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. 5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.[/b] |
