You said — “Star now you know there is NO rapture. It is no where to be found in scripture.”

Of course there is... I mean, I can’t help it if you don’t believe in it, but there are millions of others, who read their Bible and see it for themselves. I’m definitely not going to try to change someone’s mind who is *absolutely refusing* to believe such a thing exists, but I can tell others who want to know...

And then you said — “Besides, they havent rebuilt the temple.”

Yep, but they’ve got a bunch of stuff made and stored up for it, ready-to-go. There’s the Temple Institute over in Israel who have prepared for the rebuilding of the Temple.
And you know, the *two things* which are holding up the “Final Status Talks” between Israel and the Arabs (those P.A. guys over there) — are the status of Jerusalem — and — the status of the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple. Those are the *last two things* that are holding up the entire final peace agreement (of course, the Islamic terrorist don’t want the Jews to have a state at all, but aside from that fact, those two items are the “end line” negotiations between Israel and the P.A.)
The Temple Institute cast their Golden Menora (*solid gold* no less, cast in *one piece* as required by their Torah). It’s on display over there. So, they’re getting ready.
But, there’s no requirement, Biblically speaking for the Temple construction to actually *begin* before the Rapture. It could, but then again, they only need a few months to put it up. According to the Rabbis over in Israel, I think they’re figuring on about 12 months to construct it...

I agree with you, myself. I do not believe, however, that believers will be caught up, raptured, before the tribulation; so-called "Pre-Trib Rapture" has no Biblical basis. If you believe so, kindly show me the supporting passages. They're not there, to the best of my ability to seek them out.
