But what does 2 Thessalonians 2 say? Does it not state clearly that satan will be here on earth claiming to be GOD before we gather back to CHRIST? If so, then that means we are not going anywhere until the end of this age.
2Th 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Many believe that the church will be taken out of the world before the Tribulation, however, the Scripture say no such thing.
many have made the exact same claim but trying to disprove scripture.... It cannot be doneI know that this is a big controversy but if you read this pdf file with understanding, you will know one hundred percent with no doubt that there is no rapture. You will also be able to easily prove it to anyone.
The word rapture is nothing but a man made word for the gathering of the saints, how can using a word for the event make it where we will fall for the deception and worship satan? I have already been tested by a false Christ and I knew who Christ really is.Good point, but you should not use the word rapture then. You see, there are millions of people out there that believe we are gathered back to CHRIST before the tribulation and they call that 'Rapture'. If those people believe that, then when satan comes pretending to be CHRIST, they will fall for the deception and worship satan.
Eze 13:20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
The problem with Ezekiel 13 is that those souls may not get torn from their arms until the Millennium. And as you know, the Millennium is a tough road to go on.
Rapture is a term in Christian eschatology which refers to the "being caught up" discussed in 1 Thessalonians 4:16, when the "dead in Christ" and "we who are alive and remain" will be "caught up in the clouds" to meet "the Lord in the air".[SUP][1][/SUP]
buddy I hope you have your seat belt on because this topic is one crazy ride, I have been in many rapture debates and I learned there is simply no debating it ppl will believe what they believe and good luck changing their mindsA man made word can cause someone to fall for the deception because most Christians never actually study the Bible. They listen to a preacher that says they will be raptured out before the tribulation. For example, the Left Behind movies. When satan comes claiming to be GOD, they will think he is going to rapture them out.
