The rapture will be a real event, two women grinding corn, one will be taken etc etc.
If you are a Christian then you will be taken.

Like most of Christianity it has little to do with feelings.

What if being taken just means your spirit leaves your body but your body is here left on earth ?? I believe I did get left behind

It has not happened because i am still here.

The idea of a rapture as it is currently defined is not found in historic Christianity. It's a relatively recent doctrine that originated in the 1830's, when an English Protestant minister named John Nelson Darby began teaching this new idea to his followers.

I think your soul and spirit just gets caught up but your body is still here

No that is incorrect. What happens to a body when the spirit leaves, the body dies.

But at the rapture i am sure the physical body will not be left behind but instead be change or at least disappear at the moment he spirit is raptured.

So it is either one of the two ways at the rapture.
1. The spirit is raptured and the physical body is left here to decompose and return to dust.
or
2. The spirit is raptured and the physical body disappears or disintegrates quickly into dust.

The rapture happens in a way where everyone knows - take a look at this.

"every eye shall see him" Rev 1:7

Matt 24:29-31
29 “But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. 31 And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet blast, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

That is not how it happens according to 1 Cor 15:
51 Behold, I am telling you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For this perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 But when this perishable puts on the imperishable, and this mortal puts on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written: “Death has been swallowed up in victory. 55 Where, O Death, is your victory? Where, O Death, is your sting?”

So no such thing as one person having two living bodies. Also notice in 1 Cor 15 - for the living their body is "changed" in a moment in the twinkling of an eye,

1 Thess 4:13-18 agrees -
13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as indeed the rest of mankind do, who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose from the dead, so also God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep through Jesus. 15 For we say this to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who remain, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore, comfort one another with these words.


No mention of "we who are alive will get a second body and then our one soul will have two bodies - one still living on earth and the other raptured to heaven"

Sometimes I feel like the rapture is taking place, but not in a way that we think. Like maybe not everyone all at once. You know how like in some places how they will take people alphabetically by last name, like A-D on this day and E-H on this day etc. But with God He goes by something different than last names, but like it's already started and we have to wait for our ticket to be called and have to be ready, like the virgins with the lamp oil. Some people's ticket has already been called and some went and some missed it and some people's ticket has yet to be called.

I do think something is going on with the Mandela Effect and people experiencing weird phenomenon. Like reality is shifting. We're definitely on the verge of the apocalypse. So yeah sometimes I get the feeling like it's happening now.

I think also what you're feeling is God's Spirit is leaving or has left the earth like what will happen in the last days before the apocalypse. Maybe that's what you're feeling. I feel it too. Like something is not right. I've been feeling it for a while, even before this Ukraine war and possible WW3.

Actually it was taught quite extensively back in the mid first century.... I believe the gentleman's name was Paul ....he was an apostle of Jesus Christ...by the will of God.

Yeah but apparently no one realized that's what Paul taught until John Nelson Darby came along in the 1830s.

True....
Most likely due primarily to the dark ages.

What about the 476 years before the dark ages and the 830 years after?

Sorry but to me this is just one of umpteen theologies / doctrines that went unknown until the mid-nineteenth century.

No it hasn't happened yet, but events happening lately sure seems like they are ramping up to unheard of levels now. I wouldn't put it past it happening before 2030 the way things are going. I've always thought that the US had to be destroyed as a super power before it can truly happen but in reality if we were to lose a bunch of people to the rapture that in itself could destroy the country by either shutting things down or the balancing of good vs evil will tip towards evil everywhere. We are seeing wars and disease and the talk about expensive bread comes to mind from the bible.

 

[ozso]

Perhaps. But I heard the same thing with just as much certainty back in the 70s.

One thing I know for sure is that at anytime in my life I could have died and been taken to heaven. Within the next 30 seconds of writing this I could have a stroke or aneurysm and poof I've been raptured so to speak. That's what we all can expect with absolute certainty. At any moment our soul could be required from us (Luke 12:20).

Mysterious Trumpet Sounds In The Sky

During the months of lockdown, people have heard and recorded strange sounds seemingly emanating from the sky. Some believe these are celestial trumpets heralding the apocalypse.

The sounds are heard in the US, Mexico, Slovakia, Italy, Brazil and Argentina and more.

No single scientific cause has been suggested, and the wide variety points to multiple causes. The lack of human noise during lockdown has made people more aware of background meteorological sounds, from wind to distant thunder.
The sounds have been going on for a while now. Just google trumpet sounds in the sky and you will see.

Something is definitely happening.

 

[ozso]

I remember hearing about mysterious sounds like that on the Art Bell show back in the 90s.

If your spirit has left your body you have died, in the words of the monty Python parrot sketch, you have ceased to be,
