What would you do if the rapture happened and you were left behind?

Question

How would you feel? What would you do?

Answer 1

Can I have your house and car?

Answer 2

You've been reading to many "Left Behind" books. Its a work of fiction supposedly working from the scriptures to forecast possible Tribulation scenarios.

The problem is - these forecasts have been made using a false doctrine of "PreTribulation Rapture". MainWorry, gave you scriptures I would have suggested. Read THOSE Scriptures from the Bible in context instead of Fictional Books taking scripture out of context to prove an invalid point.

If on a fictional level that pretrib happened - I would hold out on some hope and not give into the antichrist. Which by the way is what Christians will do anyway since we will go through not God's wrath but the wrath of the Antichrist.

I might also add, The Left Behind Series, (a work of fiction) advocates two other false ideas - that violence agains godless Antichrist and his followers is Okay with God, and second - these books suggests mere Men can try and kill the Antichrist. No one can kill the Antichrist except Jesus.

Answer 3

the word RAPTURE is not in the Bible, however, it's called the "catching away". yes it's real, and yes one day it will happen, for those who don't believe it, I feel so sorry for them. the Bible says that there will be a crown given to those who LOVE seeing his appearing.
I won't be left behind! but those who will will endure life as they have never known it to be. the tribulation. that's who I feel the worst for.

No Rapture?

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 (King James Version)

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are ALIVE and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.



1 Corinthians 15:51-52 (King James Version)

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Answer 4

I am Christian, but I don't believe in the Rapture. Jesus will return, but not the Rapture way. Will I be left behind?

Answer 5

I would jump for joy because there would be no more nasty, lying, idiotic christians in the world. Their god-on-a-stick will have taken them to the clouds, and those of us left behind will have some fun! The only down-side is for the christians. Who will they have to feel superior too?

Of course, since I don't believe in their god or the rapture, I really doubt we will be so lucky.

Answer 6

When the rapture happens I'll fly away to meet Jesus in the air.

Answer 7

If you're reffering to being caught up in the air, I believe it will happen at the end of the tribulation. That's why the Bible goes into so much detail about what will happen. It's not scare tactics to gain converts, but a warning to God's people to be prepared.

Answer 8

RAPTURE no such thing.

Rev.10:6 And sware by Him that liveth for ever and ever, Who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
TIME NO LONGER
Rev.10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as He hath declared to His servants the prophets.
SEVENTH ANGEL WHEN HE BEGINS TO SOUND

I Cor.15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM
I Cor.15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
ALL BE CHANGED, NOT JUST THE CHURCH
I Cor.15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
AT THE LAST TRUMP, SEVENTH

I Thes.4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
THE TRUMP OF GOD, SEVENTH
I Thes.4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
THE CLOUDS
The word “the” is not in the Greek manuscripts. Clouds is used by Paul for a throng.
Heb.12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
THE AIR
The word “air” Greek (aer) means “to breathe, respire”, NOT SKY. In other words the breath of life or spirit. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.

II Thes.2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him,
OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM
II Thes.2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
NOR BY LETTER AS FROM US, FIRST THESSALONIANS
II Thes.2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU BY ANY MEANS
The sequence of events is Satan first, then the Lord’s day.

Rev 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
Rev 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
TWO CANDLESTICKS

Rev 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
CANDLESTICKS ARE CHURCHES

Yet there are men that teach the church is raptured. Men that teach that flesh and blood is taken and others left behind. It’s nonsense when you study His Word.

Answer 9

I've been anxiously awaiting the rapture for 88 years. If anyone deserves Heaven , its me.

Answer 10

I thought we all got left behind on June 6th.

Answer 11

I'd sue God for anti-Semitic policies in rapturing.
