National Director of Eschatology and Rapture Announced
THO ^ | May 2003

Posted on 12/28/2004 1:39:33 AM PST by Gamecock

In a time when George W. Bush’s first-term cabinet has dissolved in a rash of resignations, the President has taken an ambitious step toward his goals for his second term. On Tuesday, Bush announced the addition of a new cabinet-level position within his administration: the Director of Eschatology and Rapture.

The head of the new department will be Dr. Tim LaHaye, pastor and bestselling co-author of the Left Behind series. Speaking of the appointment, Bush said, “I figured, Timmy’s done such a good job of making up an imaginary rapture, he’d be the best at coming up with the real thing during the next four years. Lord knows I haven’t had any luck getting it started myself. Besides, he’s a real snappy dresser.”

"This world is not my home,
I'm just a'passin' through

My treasures are laid up,
Somewhere beyond the blue (STATES)

The angels beckon me from Heaven's open door
And I can't feel at home in this world any more....

Did you ever find yourself in the middle of your daily activities and suddenly stop as you looked around at friends, family and co-workers and say to yourself "Just who ARE these people?!?!? How the hell did I get here?

LOL.

Seriously, all need to pray extra for our beloved President. He evidently has decided that Israel must give up virtually all the West Bank. God will not deal well with him nor with the USA if such is true and he follows through on it.

You would have thought Dr. LaHaye would have "saw" this one coming. :O)

Too much History Channel, apparently.

Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?
