The term rapture has not always been around. It is never mentioned in the Bible. What did christians believe before this man-made doctrine? Revelation was not the last book written and if you believe revelation still has to happen then you would believe satan is still in heaven.In the Bible Jesus told the people they would not taste of death before he returned. Those people are not still around. People believe during the rapture graves burst open and people's bodies meet back up with their spirit for a little while only to leave them again when their spirit goes to heaven. I believe this happened when Jesus descended before he ascended. It was called the great commission. He freed christians in purgatory. So have these events that we have always called rapture already happened?

Is it a felony or a federal offense to tell family members that a loved one has died when in fact they really have not?

I'm usually very good at picking out gifts, but I'm all out of ideas this time around. Buyings things for my father is pretty much a no-brainer because he is a movie buff, and is handy around the house. But it's a little bit more difficult to figure out what my father in-law might like. He likes to travel, especially to places of historical significance. He's a traditional meat and potatos guy, but doesn't drink or smoke. He likes to watch sports, especially soccer. And dresses conservatively, but doesn't wear ties often. Any ideas? My budget is $50 or less.

It's in our country's interests to find those who would do harm to us and get them out of harm's way.

Deists disavowed the divinity of Jesus. They regarded the accounts of miracles in the Bible as just ignorant superstition. Wouldn't they be insulted at being labeled a "Christian?"

I am Mormon, and I have noticed a lot of people discriminate against us, so I'd like to to see some people who still are using their heads.

Holy Bible: Romans 8:6,7

For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace. Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God

"Enmity" seems to be the law in Ephesians 2:15,
which Christ "abolished", to become our "peace".

Your comments?

Christianity's 'Salvation through some dude' theory comes from nowhere. It only exists in the New Testament. Isn't it highly likely that Satan manipulated the truth and offered people a short-cut, the easy way to Heaven to decieve them?

Moses had the 10-step plan: "The 10 Commandments"
Christianity offers the 1-step plan: "Believe in Jesus"
