You know, folks are always asking “Are you ready for the rapture.” There is even a “raptureready” web site. Like, there’s a dress code or special equipment or something.

I figure, you can’t get any more “rapture ready” than being saved. Other than that, it’s all out of my hands, and even being saved was out of my hands.

My question for the rapturists is, “Are you ready to NOT be raptured?” I mean, chances are overwhelming that any given day will NOT be the rapture. So, are you ready to go back to that job you hate, or pay the bills, or clean that garage, or face the in-laws one more time, or otherwise do something more constructive than looking up in the sky? Because in all probability that is what will be happening the next day.

So, be “rapture ready” if you will, but I also being “not rapture ready.” Because the “not rapture” is almost certain to come tomorrow.

“but I also being” = “but I also recommend being”. Grrrr.

Anyway, speaking of Clouds, I wonder how old David is doing?

I've been to that website and they don't predict any time or date. All they promote is that when it comes, be ready, (as being saved by being "born again").


I like it because it really get's into current events in relation to end time prophecies in a pretty lucid and informed way with out promoting a total "doomsday is tomorrow" scenario.


Great reading IMHO overall.
