However, I have often wondered if the one taken/one left didn't mean that the evil one was taken out of the world.
From THESE verses?????
Luke 17:34-36
34. I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
35. Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left. "
36. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
