How Many Are Excited About the Rapture?
You know, its getting closer every day! Are you excited? Got your bags packed? Got your house in order? What a day that will be!!!!
1Th 4:14-17
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
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.
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:
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.

Not a day goes by that it's not on my mind. I love life, but who can deny, "There's something in the air!"

Heb 13:5
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
KJV
The scripture is clear that He would never leave us... we are forever with Him now if we live for Him.

Re: How Many Are Excited About the Rapture?
I'm excited about the ratpure. I think more and more of God's people who dreaded the rapture will start longing for it now that they see the world going to pot.
I was in a city yesterday known for being extrodonarily evil and kept thinking " I don't belong in this world.... it's time to get out of here"

I almost forgot about this thread! I was hoping to give the paranhas some fresh meat and I see they have taken the bait!
What do I say to people who don't believe in the rapture? I say, "Can I borrow $1,000?"

...eehh, don't look now but...
He did not leave or forsake Paul the Apostle...
who ALSO wrote I Thes 4:16, who ALSO wrote the first chapter of II Thes. and many other scriptures related to his future return.
He was WITH Paul then, WHO also expected His RETURN.
