Starting in the Pacific rim at around 6:00 PM with a great earthquake? In these days of instant communication, won't we hear about it if the rapture doesn't happen in the Pacific rim? I'm just asking.
Instead of wasting my time searching for a rapture picture, I stole the scene above of the rapture in Dallas, Texas, from Counterlight. He posted a group of pics, and I liked the Dallas best. The scene is realistic, because it shows the wrecked cars. Of course, only the naughty left behind folks are apt to get hurt, so the wreckage doesn't matter. If you have the slightest doubt that you may be amongst those left behind, stay in your house until all is calm after the excitement.
As I said in the comments over there, "I guess right at the time when the big event is to happen, we should all put our arms in the air just in case...."
Rats! and all this time I thought a good urologist could fix that rupture! Now you tell me it is rapture, not rupture. Will wonders never cease?
ReplyDeleteI'll be inside from 5:55-6:05 pm just to be sure! Jesus could be a little early or a little late, and I wouldn't want to get hit by driverless cars! I think 5 minutes on either side is enough leeway.
ReplyDeleteBumper sticker for the occasion. Found a funnier one, but naughtier, so I posted it at Doug's!
ReplyDeleteThere is the problem of ceilings and roofs should you be surprised by being raptured while you're inside, but I suppose the problem is not insurmountable.
ReplyDeleteLapin, the leftovers will be there for the taking. We won't have to ask, unless we want the items ahead of time to be sure no one else takes them after the big event.
I'm pretty sure I will not be in that number, Mimi. I just don't want to start out The Tribulation injured.
ReplyDeletesusan, I understand. One would surely want to be as spry as possible for the tribulation. At least you and I won't have to worry about being pregnant or nursing a baby.
ReplyDeleteWe be the lucky ones!
ReplyDeleteI wonder whether Mr. Coupling considered daylight savings time in his calculations? This may cause some confusion in Arizona, where most of the state doesn't observe DST, but the Navajo reservation does.
ReplyDeletePaul, I don't know. God's time is not our time.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the faithful in jet planes traveling from one time zone to another? What about them?
ReplyDeleteWhich direction would they have to fly to escape it? And what time would they have to take off to keep ahead of it?
ReplyDeleteHey peeps, I report, you decide. I don't have answers. I have only questions.
ReplyDeleteKJ, I know one thing. You won't be pregnant or nursing, either.
True, that!
ReplyDeleteThe Phelps clan say they're the only righteous people on the face of the whole planet so surely they're the only ones who are going to get raptured anyway. Which is a good thing, isn't it? Anything that gets rid of that lot would certainly be evidence for the mercy of God.
ReplyDeleteCathy, I'm sure the Rev. Camping and his followers fully expect to be raptured. Whether they expect the Phelps clan to join them is a whole other thing. Whenever the separation of the sheep from the goats takes place, and I don't expect that it will be Saturday, neither group will get to be the deciders, and both may turn out to be quite surprised at who is placed in which group.
