>> The Rapture is upon us, according to TikTokers

Neatly encapsulating the ignorance and insanity of the times in a single phrase brought to you by NYT, a major player in the insanity...

LORD have mercy.

The rapture occurred in 70 AD as the “faithful Jews” who had died before the sacrifice of Jesus was available were resurrected into Heaven to take part in the Wedding Feast celebration of Jesus and his new bride, the Church. It was not for us - we live this side of Jesus’ sacrifice. That said, Jesus will come again, but it will not be the disorder described in many books of fiction describing a “modern” rapture.

Today or “soon”, the Rapturists are always wrong. Jesus will come when he comes and no man knows the hour so there is no use checking up the signs in the Bible matching the news— no matter if is 1840, 1870, 1917, 1945; 1963, 1988, 1999 2025 (all wrong predictions). We should stop sign watching and be ready ALL THE TIME.

The rapture is happening in slow motion to weed out the faithful from the false repenters.

I woke up this morning so I figured I didn't make the cut.
My neighbor lady goes to church regularly so I knew she'd be gone.
So, I'm walking out of her house with her new laptop and she comes driving up and starts yelling.
You just never know about people.

Anyway, I'm glad some of your are still here.

I stopped taking any of those Apocalypse NOW rumors seriously, about 25 years ago. I figure, when it’s my turn, it’s my turn.

From Luther's Small Catechism section on The Lord's Prayer:

2 Thy kingdom come.

What does this mean?

–Answer: 2b The kingdom of God comes indeed without our prayer, of itself; but we pray in this petition that it may come unto us also.

How is this done?

–Answer: 2c When our heavenly Father gives us His Holy Spirit, so that by His grace we believe His holy Word and lead a godly life here in time and yonder in eternity.

It’s probably going to happen right before the Kimmel show comes back on air tonite... to save us all from the horrid spectacle (sarc).

Pretty normal day for me, so far.

I still wonder how far the “foreseeable future” is.

Didn’t the people who made this prediction gather on a hill in Missouri a few times already?

The Rapture doctrine is un-Biblical.
