That Day will come as a trap on all the world

Knowledge and belief are not synonymous and only rarely on speaking terms.
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.'

Correct. And I stand by what I said.

Um, no. But Professor did admit he was wrong, followed with accusations of Antichristery (AC) of our soverign appointed President, Barak Obama, or, "O" (in crazy lingo).

Right around pg 104 the non rapture took place. Tongue

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.

The world will definitely end sometime in the next 60 billion years.

And If I'm wrong I'll leave my house, my money, my bike to the first person who responds to this post.

I thought the most ironic moment of this thread was when the "rapturists" started back tracking on setting a confirmed date for the world's end, and then stating the world never ends, while the more scientific minded started giving a rough estimate of when the Sun will envelope the Earth. Quite the role reversal. Big Grin
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I just think its funny because their own bible babble says that NO ONE knows the day or hour. So we have here home grown Christians interpreting things based not upon the bible, but their minds. And it confirms my suspicions that nutters really are out there believing in this alter a unreality!

It gives me goosebumps to see written down the words I've heard spoken so many times in my lifetime. Somehow it's comforting to know that I'm not the Only one who has had to sit through a monologue of this crap. <_>

About this "rapture," when people suddenly disappear and their physical bodies go floating off into the heavens, what do they do when the get to the thin cold air of the upper atmosphere? Where is their "heaven" they are going to? A physical body needs a physical heaven and we certainly haven't seen any golden palaces in the clouds.

Hi Brakeman, it says "We shall be changed", it also says "Corruptible shall put on incorruptible".
This obviously is not a natural process.

Enoch believed that he would not see death, he was translated.
Elijah was "Caught up" (familiar phrase- Raptured) to Heaven in a whirlwind.
Jesus' resurrection body could walk thru a wall have dinner and walk back thru the wall.
He could materialize instantly from place to place.

Here is the deal-
in the epoch before the Flood, one guy- Enoch cheated the undertaker.
Subsequent to that, during the time of the Law, Elijah cheated the undertaker.
Now we are in the New Covenant (epoch?)- a Translation is due, it will not be a single person-
It will be a composite person- the Bride of Messiah.
Those who are ready will be caught up.

My understanding is those judged Innocent ( pray that you are ACCOUNTED worthy to escape all these things) leave before judgment.
This means the kids go with us.
They will come back with us at the 2nd Coming and they will live out natural lives in greatly extended life spans (like other natural, non translated people) during the Millennium Rest of God- the Restoration of all things. Back to the Garden of Eden state of things.
Minus the slippery subtle devil and his demons.
