If you want true Christianity, try the Catholic Church. If you want close enough, look into Orthodoxy.
Put your bagpipes away, Braveheart. This isn't Scotland, and you're no True Scotsman.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

Can you point to any of the Early Church Fathers ( available here) who taught anything remotely like the rapture?

But... but David J Stewart says:
Quote:Would to God that every preacher in America would proclaim this truth. God hates the Catholic Church! Why does God hate the Catholic Church? It's because God hates evil, and the Catholic Church is evil. The Catholic Church is no church at all, but is a heathen organization. Instead of obeying the commandments of God, the Catholic Church teaches the TRADITIONS of men. Billions of people have been led into Hellfire by the Roman Catholic Church. Oh the misery of false religion! Ironically, the Catholic Church professes to believe the Bible, which makes it easy to EXPOSE them, because most of their traditions are CONTRADICTORY to the plainest doctrines of God's Word. I plead with you as a loving friend to forsake the idolatrous Catholic Church, and obey the Bible instead.
Now I don't know who to believe...
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

True. You don't.
The real question is: Are you willing to find out? ![[Image: thumbsup.gif]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=forums.catholic.com%2Fimages%2Fsmilies%2Fthumbsup.gif)

That "impression"... Uncanny...
It's like an atheist is in the room.
You have learned much, young one.

That's what that loud, interminable droning bray was? My bad. I mistook your musicianship for your apologetics.
Carry on, laddie.

Hang on a minute, you mean to tell me that part of what many christians include in their belief system was invented?
No way dude, I'm not buying that.
