Yeah, too bad Time gets it wrong again. The "fly-away rapture" is the biggest crock of religious propaganda ever invented. I wish Christians would study its origins. Look, if your "raptured" by the transformation of your body from corruptible to incorruptible, then "a thousand can fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand". You become an indistructible, eternal being of flesh, blood, and bones, just like Jesus, the "first fruits among MANY brethren". Thats why Jesus said " I go to prepare a place, that were I am, you may be also". The "mansion over the hilltop" is your eternal body, soul, and spirit because "your body is the temple of (God) the Holy Spirit". Jesus said "don't look here or there, the Kingdom of Heaven is within you". There is so much confusion in the Church, but thats all about to change because the Sons of God, the Bride of Christ, is about appear, and destroy the works of the Devil (including the last enemy death), and prepare the earth for Christ's second coming to rule and reign a thousand years. The Great Tribulation is caused because of the clash between God's Army of Sons battling Satan and his demon forces. The Apocalypse is the full revelation of Jesus Christ through His perfected Church. The first Eve messed up this planet, the second Eve (Christ is the second Adam) will restore it to its Edenic state.

I go to prepare a place, that were I am, you may be also".

And that place will be a place of safety chosen by God (biblically called Petra) where Gods children will be called to and reside in safety during the great tribulation. God will not let his true undecieved Church die, he has given us that promise. But only if we follow ALL of his laws and commandments, repent of our Sins, do his works, and have true faith in this truth. Only after the return of Christ at the end of the 3 1/2 years will we then as 1st fruits be eligible to become the Bride of Christ in the Kingdom of God.

Good post....Vanman

I hate to tell you, but it seems you don't know anything about scripture. God always provides a way for his people to get out of the way when he is about to punish a society.

In this case, there are too many Christians on earth who have too much influence for good. Once they are removed, Satan's man of the hour will have virtually no opposition.

According to God:

1 Thes 4:14-18

[14] For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

[15] For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

[16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

[18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

It's unwise to call God a liar.
