Default Re: Rapture Smoke

Here's a neat factoid...
The word Rapture does not appear in the Bible. The term "rapture" started being used around 1730 to lay a name to some previously (widely) hyped puritanical rhetoric on the New Testament.

Also, the Bible states that nobody (but the Father) knows when Christ will return...

Mark 13:
Quote:
[31] Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
[32] But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
[33] Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Amen. I was gonna blather on about whenever the word "rapture" is spoken, everything after it is usually close to 100% wrong, but I just spared the crowd. I preach enough.

Let's not forget out pets. They will all be left because, well, they haven't been saved. Fortunately, there is a dedicated group that has planned ahead.
