Just because we are believers in Christ, go to Church, do good deeds, does not guarantee a right way to heaven. In the book of Corinthians specifically says, there will be many Christians left behind. This will be a shocker to a lot, to say the least. Christians have laws to follow...and they're the laws of God....the Ten Commandments. A Christian must be loving, forgiving, meek and a peacemaker, kind, giving, servant of God, love thy neighbor, respect marriage with no adulterous behavior, and so many more things that complete what a true Christian should be and have to be to be with God. Needless to say with reservations and shame, I fall short. But, I'm going to try to be what God expects me to be from this day on. In my arrogance and self-centerness, I just had a real eye opening while searching in the Bible about when the day of rapture will come, pretribulation, mid tribulation or post tribulation, when I read that many Christians will be left behind. And for these Christians that thought they lived right, may have done one thing that will not impress God to the point they're not taken in the rapture. I just pray God will be more forgiving to us all because the tribulation is something none of us want to be left behind to experience.
Just because we are believers in Christ, go to Chu... (

I respectfully disagree, the prophets wanted to live in the end times, and they had no expectation of flying away, please read Matthew 10: 18 and 19, we are to be delivered up to testify for the Lord, and to not premeditate what we will say because the Spirit of God will be speaking through us, and even the gainsayers will be convinced, from my reading of the Bible I truly believe we are meant to stay right here and witness.
