What would you do if the rapture happened and you were left behind?

I will take the worlds tricks and use them for good, if that is what it takes to get some people to look into their hearts and think about eternity.

I would give myself a thorough spiritual examination,.. then get my Bible out and try to "figure out" what went wrong and what I need to do from that point on.

question is what are a lot of people going to do when all hell breaks loose and it is finally realized that we were told to be children of light, to be awake, alert and ready for HIS coming?
There will be a second coming of JESUS CHRIST, it is at the battle of Armageddon..HE ain't coming three times...
The Word says not to be deceived, that there will be a great falling away first and that the man of perdition will be revealed, he will sit upon the mount and proclaim himself as being GOD...so we will see the antichrist come to power if we don't leave by way of the grave first.
if we were going to be taken out before the tribulation, what would there need to be a mark of the beast for? all that would be left would be the lost and unbelieving...further more, many believe that the Convictor will leave the earth at that time too...so how will it be that there will be any one saved if that is true? No man can come unto the Father unless he is called...the Convictor does the calling....
GOD only promises one church to protect them and its the church of Phillidelphia...HE makes a way for them to escape temptation.
Rev 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Rev 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
Rev 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
how many are truly of this church???
should we be so cocky that we are all gonna fly away now?
maybe it would be more prudent and wise to be prepared to stay...after all, the servant is no greater than the Master, and our Master suffered...so we should expect no better.
GOD BLESS YOU

The fact is that most of us humans are not ready. We have left God and turned to mammon a long time ago. Just look around you and pay attention to all our "beloved" TV evangelists, they preach the word of their idea of God for mammon and fame and earthly glory. Those are our religious leaders. With this kind of spiritual leadership, how in God's name could we possibly be ready? We would not only be left behind, we would be cursed right with our "spiritual" leaders, and banished for ever.

Who am I to question God's decision? Don't get me wrong it would suck but what could you do? I know that God will look into my heart and see that I love him and worship him. I try to live my life the way the bible teaches and treat others how I want to be treated. I am not some evangelistic Christian who thinks that everyone has to believe what I believe or else they're wrong. Remember it is not for us to judge but for God to judge.

I guess nothing at all, since the false doctrine of the rapture is that those left behind don't really have a choice, right? So I'd just stand there and wait, what else?

Stone, what's up, brother? These kinds of "what if" questions are one of the atheists' favorite tricks to try to get us to doubt our faith. I'm surprised to hear this coming from you!

I would continue to try my best to serve God, and believe that He had a purpose or some plan in leaving me. I would trust in Him to claim me when he is ready. I would pray for strength to endure in my faith.

According to Revelation this question has no meaning since none of us will be left behind.

As a Christian I hope I am left behind, I'll be waiting on my Savior Jesus Christ to return
