I’ve always wondred why anyone who claims to be a child of God wants to be “raptured” anyway.

I understand. Perhaps you have an ill opinion of Bible prophesy yourself. Many FReepers do.

Don't get stuck on the convenient, overused term "rapture," only understand the scripturally revealed concept. I admit that evangelicals have a knack for overusing convenient terms until they lose all meaning, but you shouldn't discard the baby with the bathwater.

I’ll stay and fight all the same if He allows it. He broke His body for us, I’ll do the same.

Where is the rapture in scripture......that was not an “idea: until the 1800’s?
