rapture is a hoax.

That was sooo funny!
At Church today, we sang 'The Lord sits in the Throne exalted & His train fills the temple. And the whole earth is filled with His Glory...' I saw a vision of the Lord & visualized his face (a drawing that looks a bit like him); yet Jesus was Glorious (lighted) & sitting on the Throne with a gold crown & the train was like a white light that came down from the Throne & filled the Church.
I also had a talk with Jesus this morning of standing before the Lord & dancing before the King. I don't really know how to dance. But the Lord said that I had danced for the world (yrs ago). So? The Lord expects me to dance before the King blameless & in love. (While loving inside & out.)
And also lately the thought of Jesus returning for His bride. That I am ready with oil in my lamp. That it will be in a twinkle of an eye. But then like the sunrises, from the east to the west. The 'rapture' is going to be sooo finominal. The 'rapture' is going to be in a moment. And also, the Lord is going to let me know ahead of time. When He Is coming for the 'rapture'. Because Jesus knows when we will be raptured. Right now the Lord says, "Soon & very soon, we are going to see the King.".
The return (after the wrath) to reign is a descending & every eye will see Jesus returning. Even those who nailed Him on the cross. And those left on the earth will mourn. (They know they are in trouble).
Also, I just had a question like this "What if Jesus came back & you were left behind?"; but it was deleted for not being a question or answer. It was a question. So? I hope your one doesn't get deleted.

"A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." —Attributed to MARK TWAIN.
Just because you heard that Rapture was real doesn't make it so.
You probably cherish your right to believe whatever you wish to believe. So does almost everyone else. By exercising this right, earth's six billion inhabitants have produced an amazing diversity of beliefs. Like the variations in color, shape, texture, taste, smell, and sound that we find in creation, differing beliefs often add interest, excitement, and enjoyment to life. Such variety can, indeed, be the spice of life.—Psalm 104:24.
(1 Timothy 4:1; 2 Timothy 4:3, 4) One man has deep faith in God. Another says that the man is only "weaving faith out of moonshine." One maintains that you have an immortal soul that survives death. Another believes that when you die you cease to exist, totally and completely. Obviously, conflicting beliefs like these cannot all be true. Is it not the course of wisdom, then, to make sure that what you believe actually is true and not simply what you want to believe? (Proverbs 1:5)
Why is there so much confusion and conflict? The Bible's answer is that Satan the Devil is "misleading the entire inhabited earth." (Revelation 12:9; 2 Corinthians 4:4; 11:3) The apostle Paul warned that many religious people would, sadly, be "doomed to perish" because they would be deceived by Satan, who would "produce miracles and wonders calculated to deceive." Such ones, said Paul, would "shut their minds to the love of truth which could have saved them" and would thus be 'deluded into believing what is a lie.' (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
Building on the ideas and philosophies of men is like building on sand. (Matthew 7:26; 1 Corinthians 1:19, 20) On what, then, can you confidently base your beliefs? Since God has given you intellectual capacity to investigate the world around you and to ask questions concerning spiritual matters, does it not make sense that he would also provide the means to get accurate answers to your questions? (1 John 5:20) Yes, of course he would! How, though, can you establish what is true, genuine, or real in matters of worship? We have no hesitation in saying that God's Word, the Bible, provides the only basis for doing this.—John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16, 17.

the word "rapture" is not biblical. It was a word made up by a religious group that tells Catholics the word "trinity" is not biblical. What a bunch of hypocrites! It is called the tribulation. It will NOT be fun. The people who are "taken" will not have any time to regret anything, and therefore most likely, unshriven, will go straight to the flames. I would not wish that on my worst enemy. I hope that you do not get sucked in by this deception, and always keep yourself ready for the unexpected by loving one another as Jesus loved us.

I often think about the rapture but I pictured it like the bible speaks of it how Jesus will be riding on a cloud calling out to those who love Him.
What a joy it would be if we're blessed to be around when it happens. God is Awesome!!!

Indeed it will be amazing for those who are taken from this place. For those that are left here it will be an awful future for them to suffer through. And finally for those that do not believe or disbelieve, What then will you look to for an answer? When billions of people just disappear. Who will you look to for answers. Where will you look to find your truths then? No one left here will have been found in the heart of Christ.
You will have been left behind to deal with the revelation of Christ and the many chastisings that are to come so that you repent of your wicked worldly ways and find TRUTH for the first time in your life. So that you might be saved. BE WARNED the time is near. Look to God for your answers in those days. Read HIS word. Trust not in Men to lead you through or give you a reason to what has caused this. Look to Christ ! He is the Way the TRUTH and the LIGHT !!!

Actually that video seems a little factually inaccurate...
(sorry i just have to point this out)
i think there would be ALOT more folks left behind, and primarily, the pastor would've been one of them... as usually the ones with the "most knowledge" are the first ones to admit they never bought it to begin with...
And the ones that get left behind, are probably not going to be cowering on the floor in tears because jesus didn't take them too... because if you believe it, you know you're going. and if you don't believe it, well you know you're not going. whether you personally are staying or going couldn't come as that big of a suprise to you.
personally i know if there ever is a christian rapture i would get left behind, and honestly that doesn't scare me at all.
it just means I will be living in a world with no christians in it...
and if there are "trials & tribulations" or any kind of apocalypse or armageddon, so be it. we're all gonna die eventually, i wouldn't mind so much if my death were after seeing some of the most insane explosions of all time. plus all the beasts that are supposed to come "up from the deep" and stuff. i'd like to see that. getting whipped up & rescued from it all would be kind of disappointing...

Probably a happy video, but you need to forget videos and see what the Bible says on the subject. You might be searching a long time, because it is not there.

Yes it is amazing. I often think about what it would be like if the rapture occurred while I was in church. Imagine being in church praising God. The next thing you know you are actually standing in front of the throne.

Yea. It is amazing. I prayed and whined so long to the Lord about not being left behind, He finally gave me a Rapture dream to shut me up so I could move on to more pressing things he wanted me to do. I can not tell you how it feels to do 35,000 feet in 7 seconds. Whhheeewww! Unbelieveable.

All I have to say is, we will see if it's rubbish.
If God is not real, what have I lost?
But, if God is real and you don't serve Him, you have a lot to lose.
I think I will stick to serving Him and KNOWING He is real and go to Heaven to be with my Lord.....one day VERY soon!
