"There will be none. (Rapture) The "soon expected rapture" theory is wrong and contradicts scripture. It is base upon the inventions of men and misunderstandings of scripture." You're right ! ------------ (This is an open forum :-) As for your statement above, I respect that it is truly your opinion. But just as you think I'm wrong in my interpretation, all that I've read and studied proves to me that there will be a rapture -- and soon. The good news -- our agreeing or not agreeing on this won't keep either one of us from one day being with our Lord. --- I look forward to visiting with you there.

Elect and Grandpa, There are many of us who have been raised in homes who still bear emotional scars from well meaning but misinformed teachings about Christianity. Please do not assume that your parent's beliefs are what you should follow. Our first priority is to challenge what has been imprinted on our minds since childhood. We must strike out on our own to know the truth contained in the Word. God's Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth but we must be willing to question a preconceived hand me down religion. There are also the brilliant Wordsmiths who intellectualize and fail. Fail to see the truth and beauty of a belief in Jesus Christ. Brian, I thank you for remaining true to God. Grandpa did say one thing that is important. There are many lurkers and God will use your words of truth so that some may find the true doctrine of the End Times and God's grace to those whom he chose since before the worlds were made. James
