It is coming ...but no man knows the day or hour...and most importantly the word of God must fulfill in every point before the end comes...God bless
NOTE* alot of people don't call it the rapture...because that is not a biblical term..it is commonly known as the "catching away"...or the gathering of the elect

There will be no peace in Israel untill the Antichrist comes. Before which the church will be taken away (rapture). The Antichrist will make peace between Israel and the world for 3 1/2 years, after which he will go to war with Israel. Also the Antichrist will go to war against Israel because Israel will not put his image in the Temple of God. The Temple of God does not exist at the moment. Israel is however prepared to build it at any time. Also the Antichrist will rule the EU, the EU is headed that way. The world still needs to hear of Jesus before he comes back. There will be a awakening before the Antichrist comes.

I always hate these questions.
People have been predicting the imminent arrival of the rapture for over 2000 years with no result.
The time of the plague, third of Europe killed, that was a good time for the rapture... nothing etc etc
There is no war is Israel ATM. There was in 1967... no rapture.
In terms of history, we live is thoroughly unremarkable times. I think people need to realize that.
Edit: Stoned Rolled says there is a war in israel. Its not a war, its a childish skirmish. I think you are the one who needs to watch the news. If you think this is a war you are out of your mind with stupidity. Wars are a little more intense, involves a lot more people and 100 million times the destruction. Iraq is/was not even a war. Again, 1967, now that was a war.

Some day, but no one knows since Jesus stated He would come back as a theif in the night.
Besides the course of events laid out in Revelation states that after the resurrection there will be three and a half years of peace before the AntiChrist gets mean. I just don't think this fits with that as far as the near future, but then again I don't know.

Paul wrote of the end of the world before the Roman Empire became Christian. He was originally saying the world would end since the Roman Empire had done many violent acts against Christians (rightfully so, since the Christians would go around defacing temples of the gods).
Unfortunately for Paul the Romans converted to Christianity in his lifetime.
However Paul turned Lemons into Lemonade!
He scratched out the Roman Empire's name and just said this would happen to the world one day!
Just like a lot of other nuts Paul was trying to sell an end of the world scenario ...

The rapture is very, very close. Keep your eyes to the sky, your ears open, and be about the Fathers business.
holdon says "there is no war in Israel." I do not know where this person lives , but it must be under a rock, or in a cave. All you have to do is watch the news.

Too many people spend their days looking for signs of the end of the world. Its not like a passing storm that you have to stock up on water, food, medicine, etc. Its the end of the world.
And when it comes we can't do anything about it to stop it so how about we all just make sure we are ready (actually "looking forward to it") when it comes.
Oh yeah, not only do we not have to concentrate on when the end of the world is, we also don't have to spend whatever remaining time we have trying to figure out who is going to survive it (rapture) and who isn't.

OK get a grip-- Israel and the Arabs have been at war before. And as for as the rapture goes--it's a lie--If you believe in God then why do you think He only cares about a few of His creatures??? Are you that arrogant???

Isreal was in a war decades ago...that they didn't start...but won. They took land, as victors should do, and now they are giving it back. So...the rapture happened years ago...how do you like it??
I think it is a little dissapointing.

Especially with Israel fighting the way they are...our bs wars with the Middle East and soon N. Korea...its possible.
There is a war every day in Israel. Explosions, bombings almost a daily occurrence. It may not be war the way you think of war but it is still a war.
