LOL, Oh, sure, anyone who doesn't agree with the YOPIOS cash cow fantasy of The Rapture of the Snowflakes Doctrine, is a scoffer. The Scriptues also say that there will be those who twist Scriptures to suit themselves and everything about the YOPIOS crowd screams, "Scripture twisted to suit whatever you like !!!". Noah didn't reinterpret The Word to fit into his preconceptions, build a fleet of Arks, and become a wealthy shipping magnet, all with the proceeds from the sale of his YOPIOS decoder ring based fantasy books.

The The Rapture of the Snowflakes Doctrine is a YOPIOS driven deliberate deception that very effectively neutralizes those who believe it by removing them from the battle against Satan every bit as effectively as if they never even believed in Christ to begin with. There's no "if you're wrong" about it, agreeing with Scriptures is never an error which is exactly why most Christians reject the Rapture fantasies. Christ clearly said Jerusalem would be destroyed while some of those he was speaking to were still alive and Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 AD. Fortunately Christians at that time took the words of Christ seriously rather than twisting them to fit into their fantasies. By believing what Christ said they knew to flee Jerusalem and in doing so were spared from the ensuing slaughter. The entire Snowflake & YOPIOS crowd would have been trapped with the Jews who refused to accept Christ and slaughtered right along with them because the YOPIOS folks can never accept what Christ said without first revising it to suit themselves exactly the same way Eve revised what she was told. Self worship and YOPIOS always leads to heresy and a reprobate mind incapable of understanding Scripture, even for those who once earnestly studied His Word but then fell into worship of the Self like all the Gnostics before them have.

There is no Rapture of The Snowflakes or any other sort of Rapture predicted, foretold, promised, or even hinted at in the Bible, not even in the abbreviated Pharisee approved subset of the Scriptures non-Catholics prefer. The Lindsey/LeHaye money machine is based on stroking the egos of those who join their fantasy game clique and claim snowflake status. To accept any of the assorted flavors of the Rapture of The Snowflakes Doctrine requires you to accept the premise that Jesus Christ was and is a liar. Just look at the group of people calling Christ a liar associates you with.

That diatribe certainly shows an entrenchment in the crowd of scoffers. Do you also believe that Christ won’t return until there has been a world wide theocratic government set up?
