no longer all 'religious' human beings have self assurance interior the thought of the Rapture. This doctrine became presented interior the previous due l800's, and there is fairly no scriptural backing for the thought believers will "upward thrust to fulfill the Lord interior the air" previous to the Tribulation era. Scripture states that "the ineffective in Christ shall upward thrust first, and we who're alive would be caught as much as meet the Lord interior the air". The Bible additionally states that Jesus will return to earth on the top of the Tribulation era. there is not any point out in besides of two returns - one to take believers out earlier the hassle starts and yet another on the top. The Rapture doctrine is fairly an eye-catching situation, and that i might incredibly desire to be removed from the earth earlier a time of tribulation. even nonetheless, i think of it fairly is presumptuous to base an entire doctrine on one scripture. The bible says that believers would be martyred via the anti-christ, and that believers will go through merely as Jesus suffered. Jesus mentioned that the servant could assume no longer something extra beneficial than what became achieved to the grasp, so i in my view don't think interior the Rapture. My existence is in His hands, no count if i'm in the international, interior the grave, or caught as much as meet Him interior the air.

Those are the most stupid things to do. By rapture i guess you mean the end of all wickedness and the rebirth of a new world by God's kingdom, if so the best thing would be making your path straigth with God. Whatever loans or things you put off would not build up a good relationship with God neither will it make one gain the promises of everlasting life in a righteous new world. Besides no one knows the day or time that this system of things would end that is why Jesus says we must keep on the watch, be alert - To What - To the signs of the last days which are showing clearly. now is the time to make our paths straight with God - no last minutes - because we do so out of love for God and not the repercussions of our wrongs. love is a stronger motive for service not fear.

If you beleive the rapture is near you:
a)Get right with Jesus Christ
b)Discuss it with your family
c)Get as many non beleivers prepared for the Tribulation as possible so they will know what to do when the going gets rough.
and as for the rest, nobody knows the exact hour of the rapture, so you should live life as usual, just staying alert.

none of the above. the answer is d) tell every one you know so that when it happens they may know that what you spoke was the truth and they may then accept jesus. pray that they do but even better pray that they accept jesus before the rapture and therefore know the joy that comes with it.

Why, so you can blow your money on worldly pleasures? Doesn't seem like the way to get into heaven to me!
