some can't handle the truth?.

Not a very kind choice of words to use for an open discussion. Come on Santiago, don't be so harsh. The discussion will only fall on it's face if we begin it with personal attacks. If we are to learn anything from one other we should first agree to hear one another out.

Remenber Santiago, I too once believed, to my shame, and also taught this rapture theory, and I have since found, through scripture, it to be a misrepresentation of God's word. I have repented to God and to those whom I taught. We then were able to study for ourselves the plan of God as it is written in His word.

I would be more than glad to openly, and with sincere love and kindness, reason the scriptures together. I am sure that all of us have many valuable insights, questions, and answers that might just shed some light on this very controversial issue.

It is also my contention that this ought to be discussed for the sake of not being deceived by enemy of God.

The rapture theory does not teach that Christians will be here when satan himself,(the antichrist) comes disguised as Jesus.In fact it teaches Christians not to worry, that they will be gone from this place before that happens!... So in effect, when he does come,(satan disguised as Jesus) and they (those who are waiting to be raptured) are still here, they will be deceived into believing that he, satan disguised as Jesus is the true Jesus.

He certainly is our blessed hope.

In sincere Christian love, and with wishes for a blessed day.
Shalom...><>
