Suppose Jim is a saved born again Christian. Jim dies and goes to be with the Lord. Jim was generous in that he left behind his body's organs for donation to people who need them.
Jack is not saved, does not know God and has clearly rejected God's plan of salvation. Jack is in need of a heart transplant. Jim's heart is a perfect match. Jack get's Jim's heart.
Lets say that the rapture happens before the tribulation. Will the transplanted heart in Jack's body be raptured, or stay with Jack?

I'm not worried about Jim or his heart. I'm worried about Jack. What a horrible thing to have a heart ripped out of you!
I know its a goofy question. I've just always wondered this. Let's hope that Jack gets saved.

I'm having a little trouble understanding your question but if you mean the heart transplant has already taken place before the rapture then it would stay with the body that got it because Jim gets a new heavenly body and doesn't need any part from here.
Jack keeps his transplanted heart but gets left behind.

The rapture is not true. It will never happen so don't worry about Jack or Jim or anyone else.

You are trying to mix the physical with the spiritual. when we are raptured we are going to recieve a spiritual & glorified body much like Jesus How else can we go to heaven, the bible says that no sinfull flesh will enter into the kingdom of God. Amen!!!!!!

Interesting question..
I am prone to believe that Jim's organs would go in the rapture. But nobody truly knows at this point..

May I ask... why are you worried about this? Jesus made it sound as if we will have all new bodies - heavenly bodies (like Angels). But it really doesn't matter... we don't know what exactly will happen and should live for today! Be blessed!

God is great enough make Jim whole without his heart. and the transplanted heart would remain with jack.
Good question....

The word rapture does not even occur in the bible.
