What if they're leaning only very very slightly towards belief and are more likely to turn the other way?

I say this with the utmost exclamation. Do not allow christians with their cultivated judgment demons possess you. Living the best, most loving, altruistic life possible with the settings the world has placed you in, is acceptance to heaven, you die with no regrets...the rapture/ armageddon was the fall of rome, it already happened, it was symbolically described as the end of the world. It makes no difference what religion you are or wether you believe in God, The christians have been overtaken by satan as they sit prideful dispensing judgement and hate, if Jesus was alive today he would be washing the feet of prostitutes and gay people to teach the christians non-judgement and forgiveness. Heaven is not acquired by belief it is acquired by right-action.

The rapture is not a Bible teaching. If you mean Armegeddon, however, it is like with Noah's ark--God shuts the door before the rain starts and no human can open it. Everyone outside is destroyed. Rest assured, however, that God is fully just and he is allowing this time for all right hearted ones to accept him and come to an accurate knowledge of the truth and come in. You will know it is too late when the governments close the false religions. The Bible says God will put it in their minds to do this and we will then know that Armegeddon has begun.

It is either you believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins or you don't. If the rapture take place today, all that rejected the Lord Jesus Christ will be left and they will believe a lie. 2 Thessalonians 2: 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 2 Thessalonians 2: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

There is a lot of bible teaching you need to understand. What people are calling the Rapture is explained in Proverbs 2-21,22
Psalms 37-29..........
When God cleanses the earth the wicked will be taken. The righteous will be left, and it is they who will inherit the earth as a peaceful home, forever.

They will be left behind to face the tribulation period. The rapture is only for those who have a genuine relationship with God and believe in His promises.

If you think the God who sent His only son to die so you could be with Him after you die would be watching and saying, "Well, if I time it just right, I can rapture out my Christians RIGHT BEFORE THIS GUY BELIEVES! YES!", you don't know Him at all.

If they have not accepted Jesus when the rapture happens than they will be left behind. You cannot be lukewarm when it comes to God.

Be assured, God knows who His chosen ones are, the elect. Not one will be lost, nor left behind. We do not choose God, He chooses us, not on anything we have done nor will do, but according to His divine grace and mercy. In a nutshell, if you are one of His, you will be saved, if not, you won't. Simple as that.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE 'THE OTHER WAY' LEADS TO?
God is real. Don't you feel a 'stir' in your heart when you discuss God? And Jesus? They ARE real.And waiting on you---don't turn your back on God.
Isn't it scary how fast time is flying? When you DO ask Jesus into your heart--you're not going to BELIEVE how much time you wasted not knowing Him. He is sooo wonderful!!
He is EVERYthing to me!!

Serj, don't worry, the concept of "Rapture" is only a doctrine of man, it is not real, not Biblical. So your question is a moot point.
