  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Lol, honestly, I'm pretty sure there won't even be a rapture. It's not in YHWH's nature to just take us out of tough situations, the Israelites spent hundreds of years in brutal slavery before they were delivered. Besides, where in the Bible does it ever say there'll be a rapture?

I believe that the rapture will be when Jesus calls all Christians home, because the Bible tells us this. The word is the truth! There will be angels that come after the rapture to witness to the lost. They will preform many miracles and make many people believe for around three days, then Jesus will let the demons destroy them. This is what I have to say

I have to say, this is an interesting view. I have always seen that the rapture happens, then when we meet Christ in the air he is coming down for the second coming, and those that are saved during the battle of Armageddon would populate the thousand year reign with us. What scriptures did you draw your view from?

You can read Revelations. It's in the back of the Bible.

Well, personally, I do believe that there will be a Rapture. It just might not be the one that every one thinks. If you notice, and anyone can feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the Bible never says that Jesus will come back nad bring all of his followers up to heaven. I personally think that when Jesus comes again, all the sinners in the world will be taken to be judged.

Yeah, haha, I have, many times. Not once does it mention a Rapture. From what I've heard, some lady in Europe just had a dream of what became known as the Rapture, and claimed it was a vision, many believed her.
Either way, I don't believe in the Rapture, it's not in YHWH's character to just take his people out of the world, when the world needs them most.

the end of the Earth seems very possible, and doesn't have to be this miraculous thing.. just looks at what nuclear weapons can do

Yeah, but knowing YHWH and his patterns, no matter the method used to end this age, he's gonna use the end to fulfill prophecy.
