so what are you people still doing here?
The guy who said that the rapture would take place in May still insisted that the world would end on 21st October.

I thought the end of the world was sometime in 2012, just because some Mayan got tired of writing the damn calendar.

The world ended yesterday...

I'll start watching for the rapture after the Jewish temple is rebuilt. (which it will be probably sooner rather than later, but they are gonna have a devil of a time dedicating it properly)

Read this first: The Temple and the Church's Mission: A Biblical Theology of the Dwelling Place of God (http://www.amazon.com/Temple-Churchs-Mission-Biblical-Theology/dp/0830826181). Kind of dense, very interesting.

Harold Camping, zero for three.....
Time for him to die and go to he-doublehockeysticks, where all of the false prophets go.

I have this crazy hunch the old boy's had many other failed predictions.

So we're participating in a cached copy of the world?

Or maybe a simulated virtual environment that the machines built to keep us in hibernation.

I miss all the fun stuff.

Me, too, but then I remembered that I am married.....

Where's the good Christian vehicles that are now un-manned? I suppose looting is fine for me now since I'm obviously already among the fallen, and that's jut for being on this board.

Maybe there is a correlation there with the married and world ending themes. :laugh:

Meet the new world, same as the old world.

The world ended? Oh no! That's where I keep all my stuff!

I hate to post something that is actually somewhat serious, but I was always taught the Rapture happens at the beginning of the Tribulation and that was one of those things that happens during the Tribulation. Anyway, that was how it was always presented to me. There is nothing left that is required to be done prior to the Rapture occurring.
Thinking of South Park, are all the Mormons still here?

There are several competing theories about when the rapture occurs. Let's assume pre-trib because that's the hardest to predict. The temple is desolated in the middle of the 7 years of Great Tribulation. I think it will take more than 3 1/2 years to build the temple and get it ready for dedication. (I have no scriptural basis for this but I think the Antichrist will desecrate the temple at its dedication; neither he nor G-d would want sacrifices to resume)
I'm studying the book of Daniel right now; just getting to chapter 9 (the 70 weeks)
What about the SP Mormons? :)

Amil* here. I regard the whole standard dispensational model to be a crock.

I found this (http://www.meredithkline.com/files/articles/Covenant_70th_Week.html) helpful.
*I got that way by listening to dispensationalists talk.

Kline (http://www.meredithkline.com/) was an interesting thinker. Re-reading rewards with greater comprehension.

I propose a new term for all failed Rapture predictions.
"Craptures".
