Nobody Left Behind!
The purpose of this blog is to counter the dim-wittery of the mainstream "Christian" media, and their insistance that "Christ can return at any time." I will talk of the "signs of the times," and do my darnedest to refute the misinterpretations of scripture and get folks thinking about what it means to prepare for Christ's second-coming.
As an initial argument against the "pre-tribulation rapture" hypothesis, I site the apostle Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, chapter 15, verses 51 and 52:
51: Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52: In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
What does the "Left Behind" crowd say about this occurrance? It's always that Christ will take the church at any time, and that his return is imminent. However, this crowd, to a person, ignore this scripture, essentially because it blows their heretical teaching out of the water.
Anyone who knows anything about scripture would have to know that this "last trump" spoken of by the apostle Paul is the Seventh (and final) Trumpet that will sound, which is spoken of in Revelation 11:15:
15: And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
How is Christ's return and the rapture of his church imminent when this series of trumpet blasts has yet to occur? The answer is, it isn't. This is yet one of the many problems with the mainstream "Christian" media's interpretation with end-time prophesy.
