The Rapture is Jesus coming to Earth and taking with Him all the forgiven souls. These people will not die, but proceed straight to heaven. Sounds like a cool trip to me!

Israel was made a state in May of 1948. God said that that generation would not pass without seeing the coming of Christ. We are still that generation and we have not passed yet. I believe that Christ's return is very near! Alot of the prophecies are coming true or already have. Watch what is happpening over there in Lebanon, that is prophecy itself unfolding. I am sure the trip to heaven has to be cool, man leaves the face of the earth quicker than the speed of light to go walk the streets of gold? It has to be better than turning into a over cooked pot roast with satan right?!

Yes, I more than believe that the Rapture will happen in our lifetime. I would go so far as to even say within the next ten years. Why? Because most everything is set in place, and the Spirit is whispering, "get ready, it's soon!" It could even be this week! The only thing stopping it from happening now is that every member of the Body must be accounted for. That last soul....could even be your neighbor!

Yes, I do believe the Rapture is coming in our lifetime. There are already signs.
Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.Matthew 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom
Matthew 24:21-22 21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22And except those days should be shortened

Very possible it will occur in our lifetime. If you consider Rev 6, the first four seals have clearly been opened, the fifth occurs in heaven, so we don't know if it's opened or not. The sixth seal involves a huge earthquake, I'm sure we'll know about that when it happens, then the trumpets begin.
When that seventh and last trumpet sounds, we're outa here!
It might be sooner, it might be later, but it's definitely gonna be!
Read Rev 6 & 8, watch the signs of the times and you can keep track.
Jesus in Luke 18:8 asked "when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?"
Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Get familiar with prophecy, otherwise, what is it you're hoping for?

Look, let me school all y'all. The rapture isn't found in the Bible because it's a Latin term which means TAKEN UP. And if nobody believes in the rapture that won't stop it from happening or not. If it's the truth then it will happen. In our life time... consider the source. Jesus says, "only my father in heaven knows the time".

Matt 24:36
But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Mark 13:32
But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
Rev 22:20
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Matt 24:37
But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Luke 17:26
And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
Now you have to cross that with what it was like in Noah's days...
Genesis 6:5-8
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
When you put it all together, God will either have to apologize to the people who were wiped out in the flood or come soon...
My hope and prayer is that he comes soon. Are you ready?

I believe the rapture could happen this year. Because the Word of God is being preached & published around the globe & has touched on the untouchables.
Of course it is soon, but there are still some tribes that have not heard the good news.

Whether it will ever happen or not is a question for what ever un questionable religious leader you are naive enough to follow...
However, to assume that you will be one of the people carried away is unforgivable. How could you ever know what God's judgement of you will be-- this based on your OWN religion! Do you know what hubris is? If you are a Christian, live every moment as though your soul is about to get the axe, and quit the hypocrisy--- or find another, judgement-free religion. I did.
