"Rapture"

September 19, 2012 11:40am CST
Do you guys believe in Rapture? I was just curious and i want to know some of your views about it. Some Christians doesn't believe that this will happened because they say that it was not stated or written in the bible, it was just a theory based on Scriptures. Something just came up to my mind, the Bible verse(Matthew 24:36) it says here that no one knows the day and hour when these things will happened, only our father knows. So NO ONE KNOWS the time, when will it happened and what's going to happened when the time comes. The things we should do right now is to prepare ourselves and be ready for it. Guard ourselves! While we're still living make use of our time to help, spend our time to know God and serve him wholeheartedly and not halfheartedly. Have faith on him because he is the one who holds our future. It's not too late for others to know him, if your just willing and surrender yourself to him he will definitely accept you in his kingdom. Godbless to Everyone. =) Hope that you will response well and also you we're somehow enlighten and encourage, even though it was a short discussion. ^_^

I do believe in the Rapture just like I believe in the Holy Trinity even though neither of those terms are directly stated in the Bible. I've heard some good arguments for the Rapture and the only argument I've heard against it is that the word is not in the Bible. I think as Christians we should be following the teachings of Christ whether there's a Rapture or not, but we should also be looking forward to the return of Christ.

Whatever is written in the Bible I do believe. God is a God who cannot lie so whatever He says that I believe. Now Matthew 24 states this prophetic truth and that I truly believe will come one day at God's time. Yes rapture is true and I am glad I would be part of that grand event.

I could not say to you whether I believe in it or not,yet one thing I am sure to tell you that whatever we do,a good prayer could always save us all from harm including all my enemies friends,relatives,and of course the last is myself that God give me strength and endurance to say some prayers to be save no matter what could ever happen to this world as long as I beg and ask the Lord to save us all.I have been doing these prayer last December 2011,so my prayers could be near for a year long prayer for the salvation of all concerned.So you better do your part to offer your heartfelt prayers to make God grant us all His mercy of love.Can you do what I have done?Then start to pray for the salvation of all mankind,animals and trees and plants.

The rapture will happen. A lot of Christian denominations get bent out of shape over "When" or "how" it will happen. But I don't really care when or how it will happen as long as I have my relationship with God and keep following Him I won't worry whether I die of old age, an accident, sickness or if I get martyred. When the rapture happens, I'll be one of the people he takes.

Teachings on this make me seriously consider atheism; Atheists for Jesus, that is. Because Jesus had a commandment for when you hear these kinds of warnings: "Be Not Troubled!" (at least not by the "wars & rumors of war"). And the kingdom of Heaven isn't a separate place; it's like a set of laws that govern Heaven & so should govern our lives.
