That is the degree of confidence I have that the Rapture is not years off.

If anything I said here helps accomplish that for you, I will be delighted.
According to the Bible Egypt will be devoid of people for 40 years and Sodom will be rebuilt to its former glory. When you see those things happening you can start to worry. Until then eat, drink, and be merry because you don't have a worry.

I don't know when the last time I have been so touched at the heart by someone's words. I'm almost never emotional. But you got me on this one.
Thanks for the kudo Exian.
I don't know what to say.
Thanks
'kudo' is not an actual word, it is a bastard, illiterate, back-formation.

See if I substitute "death" for rapture, I can live the same way as you do, minus the expectation you have which is highly speculative, with little foundation to justify this speculative expectation.

"Nazus"?
And life is just a series of mistakes from which you learn nothing, isn't it.

I've had lots of people defriending me on Facebook lately, but that's got less to do with any rapture than my being a selfish, miserable twat. YMMV, however.
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.'

Only if they still have Facebook with which to unfriend you in heaven.

About 25 years ago I got a call from Mom to take him to the hospital, he went into a coma there and was gone.
My mom is always ticked at Dad for escaping so may troubling times that she has been thru.
She is 92 and wants to go home (heaven).
The Rapture can't happen fast enough for her.
At one time, we were a poster family for dis-function.
The unique thing about goofed up people is (unlike most well balanced people from happy families)-
we had strong motivation to find the heavy duty answers to life's questions.
I would think you had more motivation to comfort yourselves, than anything. Hence your itchy toes for death reincarnate and proclivities for alter realities.
Life just sucks, sir. Get over it.
Have you considered the possibility that your family was dysfunctional because of your beliefs?
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Lm, of course you can live the same way as myself (and most of the Church, for that matter).
I hope you do live like that, because it means you are being productive and beneficial.
But you know how far out I am, and I consider missing the undertaker one of the greatest privileges anyone can shoot for.
And we don't get it because of our good performance because all of us fall short.
We get it by trust (another word for faith) and obedience.
Losty's kind and childlike post last night somewhat undid the normally logical professor( Spock's) encounter with emotions.
Like everything else, those moments look like a problem and professor can not rest with an un-resolved problem.
Please tolerate my solution:
1) Losty, if I go away for a bit, I'll be back.
2) Thought comes to me- "Now tell them who they are"
Stepping into the "Way back Machine" again, we spin the brass dial back thousands of years to the birth of Benjamin:
You guys are the Benjamin generation, just as the Bride of Messiah is composed of all ages and both feminine and masculine, the last generation of this Age also is composed of the same, and is a Son- a composite Son.
Rachel died after giving birth to Ben and she named him "Ben-oni " which means-
Son of my sorrow, and kind of sounds like, "Been annoyed" (and to many in my generation, that seems to fit).
But his dad changed his name to Benjamin, which means "Son of my right hand."
Here is the shadow and type- Rachel is the mother- the true Church who is taken away at his coming forth, junior gets re-named by God the Father, showing the destiny of this last son- the son of My right Hand.
Now, we return to the Way Back machine, rotate the brass dial clockwise until it comes to the part where Ben is at the banquet table of Joseph with his brothers, but before Joe reveals that he is one of them.
Joseph gives Benny five times the portion of goodies that the other brothers get.
5 is the number of Grace, You guys- the last brother and a prophetic picture of Israel right now, are going to get a multiple of what anyone else ever got from the table of Messiah.
Joseph is a perfect shadow and type of Jesus.
Again in the Way Back, we look for Elijah the prophet. He has had enough.
He asks to be taken away, especially from the wicked king Ahab and wicked Jezebel.
He is told to anoint Elisha in his stead.
Elisha perceives (he is a prophet after all) the departure of Elijah and says, "Dude- i ain't leaving you until you bless me, I want a double of the Spirit of God you have."
Elijah says- if you see me when I leave- you got it.
After Elijah goes UP, Elisha whacks the water and it parts, saying, "Where is the God of Elijah?"
OK, See the similarity of the names?
You guys are the Elisha Band.
You are going to get the double and more.
Finally, in the wedding at Canna it is said, the best wine was saved for last. This again is you guys.
There are 6 water containers representing 6 thousand years, of which we are at the end.
They are filled to the brim and turned to wine.
Happy drinking!
No Luckie, our malfunctioning was BC. Nice try though.

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
