Just a question for those who take this rapture stuff seriously:

 

When persons are "taken up", where exactly are they supposed to go to?

 

Just before Jesus' ascension He told His deciples that He has to go to prepare a place for us at the house of His Father (Jewish tradition had it that the son would build a place for him and his wife onto the existing house of his father). Not clear where this is.He also told them that He would send The Holy Spirit as comforter until His return.

 

I for one believe in the rapture. I get goosebumps when I think of the day I will meet my Maker! I truly believe that I may be fortunate enough that this day will happen in my lifetime (no, probably not 21 May though :P )

 

Note that not all Christians believe that there will be a rapture.

I am not too fussed that the world is ending. I for sure won't go to heaven, but I am not too perturbed about going to hell either, because apparently there is gonna be a new heaven and earth meaning the current heaven, earth and presumably hell will just disappear and me along with it (I have no seen any mention of the continuation of hell once the heaven and earth refresh has occurred).

 

As long as I don't have to hang around somewhere for eternity (hell or heaven) I will be quite happy!

At the end of the day it does'nt matter if you believe in the rapture or not,what matter is if you're born again..I also believe in the Rapture.

That is probably because you read nowhere that the Hell already exists. Hell will have it's 1st tenants only after the final judgement.

Gonna be one helluva queue to get in all at once... that's what eternal damnation probably means. A really, really, really long queue. I better get in some pillaging and plundering before then!

So dead sinners are only earmarked (with a 666 he he he) for hell at the moment? So they are currently in heaven awaiting deportation or what?

mmm... Your assumption of hell disappearing one day is a scary assumption.

 

Hell was designed as an eternal prison for satan and his angels. While they are free to roam the earth presently the punishment for them turning their backs on God is going to be very real.

 

When or how they are going to land up in hell with all the naughty boys from earth, I dont know.

 

But you can be pretty sure that it is going to be pretty much forever.

ah well...

here we go

 

Welcome to the abandoned land

Come on in child, take my hand

Here there's no work or play

Only one bill to pay

There's just five words to say

As you go down, down, down

 

you gonna burn in hell

Oh, burn in hell

 

You can't believe all the things i've done wrong in my life

Without even trying i've lived on the edge of a knife

Well, i've played with fire, but i don't want to get myself burned

To thine own self be true, so i think that it's time for a turn

 

Before I burn in hell

Oh, burn in hell

 

Take a good look in your heart, tell me what do you see?

It's black and it's dark, now is that how you want it to be?

It's up to you, what you do will decide your own fate

Make your choice now for tomorrow may be far too late

 

And then you'll burn in hell

Hear no evil, don't you

See no evil, don't you

(Oh, burn in hell)

Lay no evil down on me

You're gonna burn in hell

Speak no evil, don't you

Think no evil, don't you

(Oh, burn in hell)

Play with evil, 'cause i'm free

 

Hear no evil, don't you

See no evil, don't you

Lay no evil down on me

You're gonna burn in hell

Speak no evil, don't you

Think no evil, don't you

Play with evil, 'cause i'm free

You're gonna burn in hell

Hear no evil, don't you

See no evil, don't you

Lay no evil down on me

You're gonna burn in hell

Speak no evil, don't you

Think no evil, don't you

Play with evil, 'cause i'm free

You're gonna burn in hell

 

Hear no evil, don't you see no evil

(Oh, burn in hell)

don't you lay no evil down on me

You're gonna burn in hell

Speak no evil, don't you think no evil,

(Oh, burn in hell)

Don't you play with evil, 'cause i'm free

You're gonna burn in hell

Hear no evil, don't you see no evil

(oh, burn in hell)

Don't you lay no evil down on me

You're gonna burn in hell

So where are the dead people at the moment, in particular the dead bad people?

My high has been going for 8 years and going from strength to strength.Religion is dead,with Jesus it's about relationship.

I hope for your sake that one day you'll humble yourself before the King of Kings.He loves you dude,more than you may know.

My advice is not to take my advice or any other christians advice,but to try it out for yourself.Ask Him to reveal Himself to you,He will!You've got nothing to loose.

 

What a testament. Not many people can turn around from where you were. It just show's you God never give up, so why should we..

 

I dont believe the world is gonna end 21 may but i wish it did.

 

Imagine living in those final hours/days...
