So George Scialabba forwarded the Rapture quotes to Danny Postel's list, where Ken Silverstein picked it up. I realize the net has changed everything, but still it's always nice, when forwarding things, to credit sources.

The incident inspired me to take a look at the Rapture Ready site. Holy Christ, to coin a phrase. Since when did war and mass death become a Christian value? Yeah, I know the answer to that, but JC himself would not have approved.

If this is Isaiah 17 Time then 2,000,000 people are about to die [Merged]

As we lift our heads up for our redemption it is also the Terrible Day of the Lord in which it is only God's grace that saved us from the very same fate. In our joyful anticipation we must also understand the gravity.

When the anger of the Lord has not been satisfied and God's judgement is unleashed against any of mankind it is a horrific and awe filled vision that will cause us all to quake in our shoes.

I believe that if we see Damascus destroyed it is a clear definate indication that it is time to look up for rapture. Not a necessity but it is a clear indicator.

Isaiah 17:1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. 2 The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid. 3 The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts. 4 And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean. 5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim. 6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel. 7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel. 8 And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.

Verse Five gives the indication of the rapture and the actual leaving of the balance of Believers who are saved post rapture as the gleening harvest once the olive tree is shaken.
