After rapture day and you are left behind will you believe then? Will you remember this post on that day??? Millions of believers will have vanished, what will you think??? What will you say??? What will you do???? Your only chance is to call out to god! Repent and confess your sins, accept jesus as your lord and savior though after the rapture the anti-christ will try to hunt you down and kill you!!! Why not wise up and be saved now??

If you're taken away, how will l be able to contact you to let you know what l now believe?

Maybe l can just drop you a note on the Left Behind Facebook page letting you know that you were right. :(

See, Reborn...... You didn't know you had that power, did you? All you have to do is believe in a Rapture, and you can make it happen.

How to be saved=born again and join the family of God!

Romans:
Chapter 10 verse 9-10-13 God says=
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in your heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be Saved. For with the heart man
believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto Salvation. For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be Saved....................

---------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------

An example prayer if you have never before talked to God.
Heavenly Father:........................................... ...............................
I come to you in prayer asking for the forgiveness of
my Sins. I confess with my mouth and believe with my
heart that Jesus is your Son, And that he died on the
Cross at Calvary that I might be forgiven and have
Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven. Father, I believe
that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you right now
to come in to my life and be my personal Lord and
Savior. I repent of my Sins and will Worship you all the
day's of my Life!. Because your word is truth, I confess
with my mouth that I am Born Again and Cleansed
by the Blood of Jesus! In Jesus Name, Amen

I'm not sure but isn't it implied that everyone must die to receive the new body. Is there a statement that says the bodies will be raptured, or the spirit. People are raised from the dead. But do the bodies remain. Hinting at necessary death? For all?

I'd like to turn the question around...

If you find yourself in the midst of the tribulation judgments, without any rapture occurring, will you go apostate?

Matthew 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other

*****our bodies are changed at the Rapture ( 1 Thessaloniuans 4:13-18)

That seems like your saying, will we just give up and turn to darkness. Because I don't know the meaning of apostate.

But the answer for me is, I'll just carry on doing. At least I do have faith. It would be a waste of time if I changed this mind later on.

***** that is how the Rapture has been presented wrongly---- as an escape---- the Rapture takes place after the Church brings in the harvest----- there will be plenty of persecution ( not Tribulation) to go around-----if we are not ready for the Rapture---- being accounted worthy to escape---- same as the Apostles were counted worthy to suffer shame---(Luke 21:36). (Acts 5:41)--- we would not be ready for the Tribulation---- the Tribulation only has two purposes---- Time of Jacob' s Trouble---- to deal with Israel---- and judgment---- Great Winepress of the Wrath of God---- you don't find the Church in the Tribulation...

Christians will not die at the rapture. "In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed." (1 Cor. 15 v.52) J

My mantra is, pray for pre-trib, but be prepared for post trib.

God says we will see His judgment but not His wrath. The events of the seals and trumpets are called God's judgment, those of the bowls are His wrath. Thus we will see tribulation judgments, but not tribulation wrath.

"As in the time of Noah" is the setting. God did not take Noah from the time of judgment on the world, instead God told Noah how to prepare to survive it. Supposed that having been warned of the coming time of judgment, Noah figured he wasn't going to see it and didn't prepare the ark. Would Noah have still survived it?

Apostate means to have turned away from God and His truths. Jesus said that in the end, when the poop hits the fan, many who claim to be His will turn away. Like the seed among the rocks, these will be those who are not prepared and rooted in the truth.

But, since no man truly knows the time, I go back to the mantra. Pray for pre, be ready for post.

I have already posted one answer to this question and a thread titled as in the days of Noah but they seem to have been ignored. The left behind idea comes from what Jesus said in Mathew and Luke. If the passages are read properly you will see that it isnt the righteous that are taken but the sinners. Noah and his family were left behind. Jesus said where the carcase is the eagles will be gathered together. In Revelation we are told that there will be a supper where the birds will feed on the bodies of the armies, mighty men and people small and great who rebel against god.

The whole pre trib thing was started by John Darby in England but was taken up by Cyrus Scofield who wrote an edited version of the KJV and added notes to it. If it wasn't for Scofield and a gullible American Public the Pre Trib position would have died along with John Darby.

This is true, not only will God gather His own but also the truly evil will be taken.

The Bible clearly shows that judgment and wrath are two different things.

I'm glad to have made your day.

But I pray you wise up before God has the chance to wipe that silly smirk off your face.

I believe the Rapture comes at the second coming when we meet the Lord in the air and accompany him back to Earth to defeat the Antichrist at Armageddon.

My thread - As In The Days Of Noah - can be found on page 5 of the Bible Discussion Forum. It has had 102 views but no replies so anyone interested can find it there.

The "tribulation judgments" ARE the wrath of God on this God rejecting, sin loving world!

The rapture(catching up) into heaven of all born again believers is not the same event as the return of Jesus to earth to set up His kingdom and rule the nations with a rod of iron.
