Or will there be some Christians left behind to witness?

All will be taken up and the poor souls left behind will still have an chance to accept what they for all their life denied to be true.

The people who are true followers of the Lord will be taken in the Rapture. The ones left behind are the ones who are playing at being christains but are not following Gods word .

Nero was the antichrist, the people fleeing was people fleeing from roman persecution, Rome was the great Harlot drunk with the blood of the saints, And some of it may still be to come.
I do not fully understand it myself, but I believe that not all of the rapture explained is litteral. Jesus WILL return, but I have seen good explanations that It isn't all what I used to believe, I am not saying that the rapture definitely won't happen, but I think that this is a better explanation. I don't remember everything about that, and I cannot really debate it well enough to keep to it in a long argument, But I am still learning.

I believe only those who have a personal relationship will be delivered in the Rapture, those left behind will come to understand the truth and start to witness.

The 144,000 (12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel) will be sealed, according to Revelation 7 and after that the Rapture where the Christians that have died, up to that time, will be raptured first then those that remain alive will also be taken to heaven to be with Christ.

According to the Bible=Those who remain [believers] at his coming, will be caught up [harpazoÌ] [ αÌÏÏαÌÎ¶Ï ] in the air to meet Jesus at his second coming. Don't look for a [rapture] before that.
Let me give you some readings to spell it out.

Maybe this will help:
But as it is written: “ Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.
1 Corinthians 2:9

You are talking about a mythical event that will not happen. Do you really believe that the graves will open and skeletons will fly thru the air? Or that people will float upwards, through the roof of a car, through the subway tunnel, through the side of a plane? What about thinning oxygen levels in outer space? Cold temperatures? Besides, so many of the folks who think they are going up are hypocrites and living double standard lives, despite their pretense.

I think in the book series left behind there were people who were left behind and Christians to witness and spread the word to others who were left behind.

All. Some people that are left behind will become Christians at the sight of this, and they will witness. And die for it.
