Hope nobody holds their breath waiting for the rapture, ain't gonna be one.

Why are you so sure?

Because it doesn't make sense. The Son of God suffered for us and we (miserable sinners) think that we are not going to have to suffer through tribluations.

Plus it's not based firmly in scripture, it's an obscure reference that I believe, and many others believe, has been taken out of context with scriptural evidence to show otherwise.

Proponents of the rapture can't even agree at what period of the tribulation that it's going to take place in.

I find it interesting that Christians who believe in the rapture and commit all kinds of sin think that Jesus is just going to take them out of this world when things get tough.
