I have a rapture problem. Every time I make a little money and I stash it away somewhere, it seems as if the Money would just suddenly rapture from my pocket or wherever I stashed it. It is very puzzling to me.

Please how can I stop Rapture?

you are very right, the greatest threat to humanity is humanity itself, when there are thousands of nuclear warheads that can turn the earth into pre historic ages,moreover you are as good as what you believe,there are some religions that does not believe in rapture, would those people be included in the rapture or be left on earth to follow their belief?

Rapture-the doctrine of the left behind. Does it has scriptural /magisterium teaching?

When many people, Protestants and Catholics alike, think of the end times, they automatically think of the rapture, a type of “Left Behind” event.

In this event, those who are right with God are mysteriously taken up into heaven, and those who are living in sin, remain on Earth during a time of tribulation and chaos. The Catholic (early church) teaching on the end times however, does not support this type of event.
The word “rapture” comes from the Latin word meaning “to be caught up” or “taken up”. This refers to the passage in St. Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians 4:17 which states, “then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord.”

With respect to the rapture, the Catholic Church teaches (though she does not generally use the word "rapture"wink that those Christians who are alive during Christ’s second coming will not experience death, but rather, will be gloriously transformed and join the saints already with Christ.

Catholics,Orthodox Christians, Lutherans, and Reformed Christians believe in a rapture only in the sense of a general final resurrection, when Christ returns in his Second Coming. They do not believe that a group of people is left behind on earth for an extended Tribulation period after the events of 1 Thessalonians 4:17.

Nowhere in 1 Thessalonians does St. Paul teach a secret coming of Christ. Furthermore, St. Paul states that Christ’s coming will be announced by the cry of an archangel and by a trumpet blast. St. Paul is describing the resurrection of the dead that will take place at Christ’s second coming.

It appears, when reading 1 Thessalonians that Christians at the time were worried that those who died before Christ’s second coming would not share in His triumphant return.

Paul assures them that when the time comes, they will join the resurrected to meet the Lord and will share in Christ’s triumphant descent from heaven to earth. Also Matthew's gospel taught that the tribulation will be experienced by both the good and sinners, hence the plea that it should be shortened because of the elect.

Historians are in agreement that the pre-tribulation Rapture doctrine originated in the eighteenth century, with the Puritan preachers Increase and Cotton Mather, and was then popularized in the 1830s by John Darby.

Others, including Grant Jeffrey, maintain that an earlier document called Ephraem or Pseudo-Ephraem already supported a pre-tribulation rapture.

Pre-tribulation rapture theology was popularized extensively in the 1830s by John Nelson Darby and the Plymouth Brethren, and further popularized in the United States in the early 20th century by the wide circulation of the Scofield Reference Bible.

Up till the 1830s, there was no pre-tribulation doctrine of 'left behind' (rapture) in any of the patristic writings nor taught by the church fathers nor among the doctors. I hope Catholics will allow the Church guide them through the scripture and not falsely arrogate to themselves the ability to interpret scripture thereby distorting it. 2 Pet. 3:16
