With all the rainstorms lately, (and more to come I'm sure), it's nice to have a bag that stands up to the weather. The Cynthia Rowley Rapture Tote does double duty, in protecting your things from wetness, and looking quite fashionable while doing so. Contrasting purple jewel-toned patchwork nylon and pebbled leather mix in a unique pattern. Two tiny studs accent the cutout handles, and when you

I was helping coach Busy D.'s soccer game on Saturday, it's a multi-person affair, (don't start me on the reasons why) and I was manning the bench.
I don't put up with a lot of crap on the bench and I watch them pretty tightly, likely to the chagrin of a couple of parents (the same parents whose kids are the reason it takes an army to get the kids through a game).
During the game, a lady came r
I was in a Blondie mood this Friday so today I bring you Rapture from Autoamerican.
Toe to toe dancing very close
Body breathing almost comatose
Wall to wall people hypnotized
And they’re stepping lightly
Hang each night in rapture
Back to back sacroiliac
Spineless movement and a wild attack
Face to face sightless solitude
And it’s finger popping

Rapture or April Fool? Inserito originariamente da Abriael Yesterday Allakhazam.com published some screens, claiming that they could be a sneak preview from the new Square-Enix MMORPG codenamed Rapture. The screenshots feature some quite blurry environment and a Viera and a black mage moogle, alnogside with a couple of chocobos. While some of the assets look definately similar to Final Fantasy XI (exoecially the textures and the chocobos), some seem quite different from what we've already seen. You can see the whole set here.While the period in which such pictures have been published (march the 31st) is definately fishy, we can't, at the moment, mark it as a surefire April Fool. Looks like we'll just have to wait and see until some official notice comes. If you want to read the di
1. Hebrews 9:27– “And it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.”
There is a KJV reference to Genesis 3:19 confirming this: “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto [...]
A passage of Scripture that is considered crucial for a defense of the pretribulation rapture position is Revelation 3:10. “Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.”
It is argued that [...]
First off I want to apologize if anything I’m about to say is offensive to you, but please read with sincerity and openness.
I don’t know about you but I grew up just assuming that I would never know when Jesus was going to ‘take us home’ to be with Him. It might be before the [...]
Sounds like a bold statement, but I believe it to be true. For those of you that don’t know, the view where the saints of God will be gathered together in the air to meet the Lord before the seven year reign of Antichrist, and the Great Tribulation, is often referred to as ‘The Rapture’.It is not my intention to get into the history behind this view, nor to go into any great detail about it. Rather, I’m just going to do what the post title says; give one verse that I came across when I studied this issue a few years ago, that I believe totally shatters the unbiblical concept of a pre-tribulation rapture of the saints.
The verse?
First off, I’ll start out by saying; we Christians, ie. believers in Christ, are the Elect. The Elect does not include Jews who do not believe in Christ as Lord and Savior (OT Jews).
How do we know that?
In Greek, The elect is ἐκλεκτός (eklektos).
Definition of eklektos:
Certe volte si ha proprio bisogno di una canzone cretina dal testo ignorante e dal ritmo allegro per tirarsi su. Per puro caso ho ribeccato il video di un brano dei The Rapture. Vogliamo parlarne del titolo? :)
One man’s eureka moment brands him a fool in the mind of another. My Eureka moment cannot actually be fixed to a precise moment; rather, a span of time of about eight years. When my parents decided to follow Christ they settled into a wild non-denominational, dispensation-ally minded church. There my indoctrination on the rapture began and continued for the next 20 plus years.The first inkling that I may have been mislead was in Bible college. While sitting in a class on Assemblies of God History and doctrine, the defense of the premillennial rapture of the church was laid out…in about fifteen minutes. I remember thinking, “That’s it? That’s all the scripture they can come up with to ground one of their 16 fundamental truths?”In what should be a major work, I will briefly expla
Crystal Tools logo Inserito originariamente da Abriael Two days ago an article on the japanese website GameWatch caused an explosion of speculation on the new Square-Enix MMORPG currently in development. The project, codenamed "Rapture" (it's probable that this won't be the final name, but just a pre-release code name) is still absolutely top secret. The only detail we know is that it's being developed using Crystal Tools, Square-Enix' own engine previously named White Engine, and that now supports every platform in the gaming scene (even if the Wii is supported with limited features).The cross-platform nature of the game has been the main topic of controversy and speculation. The original news piece reads as follows "Wii support has been added for the engine, in addition to PC, PS
Throughout the weekend, people speculated on who Idetrorce’s identity was and the results were all over the place. The latest Zogby poll came up with these stunning conclusions:
But anyone can fudge numbers or twist them to their benefit so how telling is this poll, really when it comes to figuring out just who Idetrorce is. Twenty-five percent of the country thinks WWE is real. Hell, people think Hitler is still alive. No idea how that one would work out being that Adolph would be like one-hundred-and-twelve years old.
What if Hitler was alive and using the comment spamming of Idetrorce to take control of the planet? You say come on, how can a one-hundred-and-twelve-year-old-man possibly create a spam bot but my reply is never underestimate people. Rocky Balboa boxed again and he was like fifty. Barry Bonds was able to hit seventy-two home runs at age forty-eight. You never know.
If it is not Hitler or Rocky, then who really is Idetrorce? They could be the person behind you i
I am in the middle of a verse by verse study of the book of Revelation. This book, though I thought I understood most of it, still left me feeling a little confused about some things. Here I want to share what I have learned and hope you will join in the discussion.Revelations is a book of sequences. It is very chronological, both literally and prophetically. The first three chapters of the book of Revelation reveal John's visions of Jesus and the Church Age (the Church Age being from the time of the first Pentecost until the "Rapture" of the Church.) Chapter 4 and on reveals things to come in the future. Revelation 1:19 states it this way: "Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this."While reading the book of Revelation and studying it, I came to the realization that though the word "Rapture" does not occur in the English translations of the bible (though the Latin version "rapere" does occur in Latin translations)
Llegamos al teatro sobre las 21 horas, llegamos con la angustia de saber que ibamos a ser pocos, y que el Gran Rex no se iba a llenar, a mi me angustiaba saber que estos 4 chicos de new york pensaran en que eramos pocos lo que los escuchamos, aunque es una lamentable realidad, somos pocos y agraciados por conocerlos.
El espectaculo empezo muy puntualmente sobre las 21:40, se abrio el telon y pudimos ver a The Rapture en plano, sin media palabra con el publico empezaron a dar un show que era lo que yo me esperaba, sonido fuerte, un sonido muy fuerte. Al llegar a la tercera cancion The Devil el teatro ya habia tomado mas color, mucha gente se habia arrimado a ver el show y si bien mas de la mitad estaba vacio, eso no parecio importarle ni a los chicos de new york, ni a ninguno de los que fuimos. La gente ya abandonaba sus butacas y se paro para poder sacudir su cuerpo un poco y al ritmo de la guitarra magica de Luke que anoche lo vi dar catedra sobre distorcion, creo que no recuerdo hab
In this day and age, with things getting smaller and smaller, and faster and faster, pretty soon it's going to be incredibly easy to put a camera on every corner, and in every room, watching and listening to everybody, all the time.Commercials are already pushing the Visa Check Card as a faster and therefore better method of payment than cash. But they skew things. The Card users always have their cards ready and in their hands. No need to sign any slips of paper, according to the ads. How secure is that? And most of the time, the "loser" who pays with cash is shown reaching into his or her pocket or wallet or purse to get the money in a slow and apparently exasperating way. Now, that's totally unfair. If one person has their form of payment in their wallet, the other should too. The Card members should have to reach in and retrieve their Cards, just as the cash user does. But it would be so much easier if the Card were embedded beneath the skin of the hand, wouldn't it? S
Cuarteto gringo y en específico de Nueva York. Este es su tercer disco y el segundo con una disquera grande. En este disco se ve la gran preocupación de las bandas actuales para tomar cartas en el asunto de los grandes cambios sociales que desafortunadamente nos ha tocado vivir en esta época, reflejando esto en las letras de sus canciones, como por ejemplo esta profundidad de frase; "People don't dance no more, they just stand there like this" o la famosísima; "Come on give it to me, I now you want to" jajaja.Rock bailable, eléctrico, setentero, voces bizarras, un bajo rebajo y un cuate bailando por ahi con un cencerro es lo que compone a esta banda que siempre es bienvenida para empezar la mañana o durante un buen baño renovador. Tuve la fortuna de verlos en el pasado Lollapalooza y la verdad es que fueron de mis sets favoritos, se arma el buen bailongo con estos cuates. Al güey del cencerro se le va bien gacho la onda, toca un poco de campana por aqui, un poco de teclado por

Thanks to Michael Kruse for this link to the Rapture Song. (This is my quest to use the word rapture in every post just to get the green-headed guy to comment!)
The TribulationWhat exactly is the tribulation?The word "tribulation," used as a prophetic term, comes from Jesus' Olivet discourse, during which He laid out the future course of human history all the way to its climax at His Second Coming. The Lord said, in response to His disciples’ question, "What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?""For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be" (Matt. 24:21)."Tribulation" is the term for the general era of God's judgment on a rebellious world of earth-dwellers. It is a time that will begin with Antichrist signing a seven-year covenant guaranteeing Israel's peace and security (Dan. 9:27). This era is kicked off, symbolically, beginning with the first horseman of the Apocalypse (Rev. 6:1). "Great Tribulation" is considered to be the last three and one-half years of that seven-year period known as "Daniel's seventieth week." The last three and
I received some great comments yesterday, and wanted to touch on them for a moment. First, though I have a lot of questions about the Rapture, I don't expect that every one of them will be answerable while I am still alive. My questions are only those which, in a perfect world, would be answered. Does this make sense? I have a VERY inquisitive mind, so if I can learn the answers to something, I'll do my best to do so. I do understand that for some of my questions, my faith that it is so, will have to suffice. May God grant me the wisdom to know when to "let go of the bone." Second, I do believe in the Rapture. I do not believe it has happened yet. I believe the Bible is literal not interpretive. I have hope that those that have questions about the Rapture will travel this study with me, and if they don't agree, they're free to do so. I'm not here trying to change anyone's mind about the Rapture; though if it happens, I won't complain. :) Now on to the post.What about the dead?Bu
What does "Rapture" mean?The teaching of the rapture is most clearly presented by Paul in the first books and Thessalonians and Corinthians: "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." (1 Thes. 4:16-18). Rapture critics like to claim that the word "rapture" is not located in the Bible. It may not be in the King James, but the word "rapture" is found in the Bible, if you have the Latin Vulgate produced by Jerome in the early 400s. The Vulgate was the main Bible of the medieval Western Church until the Reformation. It continues to this day as the primary Latin translation of the Roman Catholic Church. It was Protestants who introduced the word "rapture" into the English
Dear Readers, if you were here earlier and read my post, I have to take a moment and apologize to you. I found the blog that I earlier referenced to be funny because I thought it poked fun, in a nice way, at those that seem to think they can predict when Jesus will come again. However, after reading further, I have found that the entire blog has some VERY flawed ideas that just do not jive with what I believe, so I have deleted reference to it. If you read the comments, I urge you, do not click on the link to the blog that is shown within. As you know, I publish comments whether I agree with them or not, so long as they are not offensive in their language or just plain mean. If you believe the bible to be the only infallible Word of God, you will not like this blog.Having said that, I think I'll address the Rapture myself. I'll be quite honest with you though, I am still studying the subject, so this post will not be complete in knowledge, but I will take the subject up again
I am back. My character "Secretary 9B8 Gamma Sector" has returned to my closet of weird thoughts. My spoof on the Rapture has ended. Doing this Rapture spoof has been enlightening on a number of levels. I realize that a lot of people take this seriously! This blog is no powerhouse. Usually I get about 60-70 unique visitors a day on average. During these rapture posts, my site meter jumped to around 130 visitors a day, and on July 6th it was 351! Most of these visitors were searching for "rapture" or "July 7th," and somehow found me. I even had to moderate comments after one person thought a violent threat was in order.What is it with this Rapture business? Barbara Rossing, a theologian and Lutheran minister, wrote The Rapture Exposed: The Message of Hope in the Book of Revelation. To get an idea of where she is coming from, here is an interview with her from the Wittenberg Door. This is a snippet:The first sentence of my book is, "The rapture is a
Hi Everybody,I just heard from Jesus. He is OK! Thank God. The sad news is that he is not going to make it to Earth for the Rapture. He was nearly here when he got news that an emergency was brewing in the Andromeda Galaxy. He has changed course.Andromeda is 2.5 million light years from us. The top speed of the Lincoln Town Car when flying inter-galactically is Warp Fifteen Grand (15,000 times the speed of light).Even at that speed he won't make it there for 167 years. He has to take care of an emergency and other issues, so he is certain he won't be back to Earth for at least 500 years. I tried to pin him down, but the earliest he will be here is February 5th, 2525 or 2/5/2525. It will be a great day!I can't say that I am not disappointed. But, Jesus needs to be where he needs to be. He sent me this e-mail to pass on to you. This is a red-letter e-mail from Jesus!Dear Earth Friends,I know you are disappointed. I am as well. My secretary, John, of 9B8 gamma sect
Hi Friends,The Rapture is only seven hours away. Many have been concerned that if they do make it in the Rapture that they will miss the Live Earth concerts that are beginning just four hours from now. I have worked it out with our engineers and we have satellite link-ups to all the concerts around the world on a super-sized plasma screen in the heavenly speedway. You will be able to enjoy the Rapture and watch the great shows! And it will be fun to see if those left behind will be able to do anything for Earth before Jesus and his army return to trash the place in seven years. If you don't make the Rapture there are plenty of local places to participate in the Live Earth concerts. Here are the details for the "Party for the Planet" at the Acoustic Coffeehouse in Johnson City. Check the Live Earth SOS web page.Still trying to meet everyone's needs,Secretary 9B8 Gamma Sector
We are just a few hours away from the Rapture!One more time: Seven seconds after seven minutes after seven a.m on July 7th, Jerusalem time. If you are in Honolulu, that will be 6 p.m. on the 6th! If you are in Sydney, Australia, that will be 2 p.m. on the 7th. For Sheboygan, Wisconsin, 11 p.m. on the 6th, and here in East Tennessee, it will be just after midnight on the 7th. Do, oh do check your time zone!Jesus is on his way and will be here in a just a bit. He'll have time to go to the toilette, go over his speech and then...the excitement! I am so exited but so worried. I want everything to be right. Thank Jehovah for Eileen! She reminded me about the water! We have just shipped in 150,000 gallons of water for Jesus to turn into his special wine. That should be enough don't you think? I mean, that is a gallon of wine per person! Even when I was in college a half gallon was enough to send me to tipsy land. Jesus's wine is potent stuff!I don't know if I have me
Some of you may not be familiar with the last times scenario. You might consider reading The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Last Days: An Apocalyptic Look at the Future.While some of the basic material is fine for idiots, it of course misses the main point that the Rapture is this Saturday, July 7th! For those of you in California, the Rapture will occur on July 6th. It is so important to check your time zone!All of the rapture prophets are wrong. The reason is quite simple. They are concerned with Earth's events and not with Jesus's events. Jesus keeps his own schedule. He needs to go where he needs to go when he needs to go. For each planet in the universe he needs to come and come again. That is a lot of work. His appointments are set at his convenience regardless of whether or not Israel is a state or whether or not the European Union has so many members and what not.Because the universe is so large, most of his time is spent in transit. Today, I will reveal how
I hope you have enjoyed or are still enjoying your Fourth of July celebrations. They could be your last if you are fortunate enough to be raptured on Saturday, July 7th at seven seconds after the seventh minute after the seventh hour (Jerusalem time). For those of you who have just found this blog, I am the secretary of Jesus in this sector of the galaxy. All of the staff are giddy as schoolgirls about the return of Jesus! (You might want to catch up by reading the Rapture Updates at the right of this blog). For those of you who will be left behind, you will facing seven years of really bad luck. The Antichrist (also known as the Beast) will make his appearance soon after the Rapture. In fact, he is one well known to you. Of course, there have been many speculations regarding the identity of the Antichrist. The speculations are now moot. From the hand of the secretary of Jesus, I give you the identity of the Antichrist. First, a reading from scripture:Also it causes al
The best way to experience George Carlin's When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops is to purchase the audio book read by Carlin himself. However, it could be the last book you will ever hear or read as the answer to his question, "When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?" is...Saturday. This one coming. Five days from now. July, 7, 2007, at the seventh second after the seventh minute following the seventh hour, Jerusalem time. If you are in Baghdad and the seventh hour passes and you are still wondering why you are there and why Jesus is late again, do not despair, Jesus will not come until eight a.m. your time. Go here to find the time of the Rapture in your zone. The day of the Rapture will be filled with entertainment thanks to Al Gore and his Live Earth concerts. Do enjoy the concerts but the purpose is rather silly, saving the Earth. Why worry about that? Save yourself and get raptured! Who cares about Earth? Jesus will take care of all that for us when he brings the pork chops
Hi Everybody! I have a few minutes to catch you up on preparations for the Rapture! It is only a week away and all of heaven is in full-speed making preparations for the return of Christ. I am in heaven right now and the latest word is that Jesus is on schedule and he is thrilled about his visit.When I say heaven, I mean Earth's heaven. Every planet has its own nice little heaven. Of course, there is a big super duper heaven, but folks who know its whereabouts are keeping mum. Earth's Heaven is just above the stratosphere (so we can avoid the planes). The neat thing about heaven is that we have a delightul view (on a clear day) of Earth below.Now when the Rapture occurs on Saturday July 7th, at seven seconds after seven minutes after seven a.m. Jerusalem time (be sure to make calculations for your time zone), don't be alarmed if you see bodies going up while you are not. Remember the dead have to rise first. So, be careful you don't get hit by those rapidly falling up bodies. Stay
I have been busy as the secretary of Jesus working out his calendar (you know to plan his big events and appearances). I thought I would let you know that he plans to return to Earth in the clouds to gather the faithful on July 7, 2007 at 7 am and 7 minutes and 7 seconds Jerusalem time. 07/07/07 and 07:07:07. It will be a great day. So make your plans. Do all the things you want to do before the rapture and be sure and get saved on July 6th. Nasty stuff for those Left Behind. The RaptureHere is an interesting article from the Christian Science Monitor that suggests that 59% of Americans believe that "the events in the Bible book of Revelation will occur in the future."But that isn't all. According to the Christian Post, one in four Americans believe the party will begin in 2007. That's right! Twenty-five percent of Americans think that Jesus is returning in 2007! One in four Americans anticipates the second coming of Christ in 2007. This is one several predictions made
The Rapture wasn't the first band to revisit the clanky dance-punk sounds of bands like P.I.L. and Gang of Four. But with its DFA-produced debut, 2003's Echoes, and the accompanying underground hit, "House of Jealous Lovers," the Brooklyn quartet proved itself to be the most worthy. On its follow-up, the group makes a dramatic left turn with a new crew of producers (Ewan Pearson and Paul Epworth, plus a pair of tracks recorded with Danger Mouse of Gorillaz and Gnarlz Barkley fame) and a more sophisticated sound that yields pop gems like "Whoo! Alright Yeah… Uh Huh" and "The Devil." Reassuringly, the saxophones, cowbells and singer Luke Jenner's unintelligible yelps are still present, as is all the manic energy that goes along with it.
Owing Much to Gang of Four, the Cure, David Bowie and P.i.l., The Rapture Are One Retro Band that Even a Jaded Postpunker Can Learn to Love. Here is the Stuff with which So Many have Waited for So Long to Hear. Though They Clearly Do Live Sampling (Could They Be Any More Blatant Than the Drum Beat on "Open Up Your Heart"?), It's Easy to Forgive Here Because There is So Much Meat on These Bones and it is Served Well Done. Give it a Listen, You Won't Regret It!Site : The Rapture Similar Artists: !!!, LCD Soundstsyem, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV On The Radio, Junior Boys, Gang Of Four
In a MySpace blog post this morning Matt Safer of The Rapture got to noticing some similarities between the video for his band's "W.A.Y.U.H." and Justice's new clip for "D.A.N.C.E." I'm 99.9 percent sure that this is all in good fun.
One of the most controversial subjects in relation to the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus, is whether or not there is a Secret Rapture of Christians seven years prior to His return.
We know from Paul's writings that at the last trump, when the trumpet sounds the dead in Christ will rise first and those believers on earth will be changed in an instant and receive our new immortal bodies 1 Corinthians 15:51-53, "Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 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. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.â€
This raises the question, if there had already been a Christian rapture seven years earlier, why would Paul be telling them that he expects them to still be on earth (remembering that Paul did not know the timing of the Lord's return and wrote with
It's been five years since 9/11 and there still hasn't been another major terrorist attack on US soil. What greater evidence do we need to show that Bush's strategy of sending our men and women to die 'over there' so they won't have a chance to die 'over here' is working? We would also do well to remember that there hasn't been another devastating hurricane in the United States since Katrina; no doubt further evidence of the success of Bush's war on terror!

Why, that would be like calling a woman a prostitute just because she slept with men for money! You can't believe everything that guy Webster tells you, you know!) The point is, if we spend all our time thinking about the negative and being critical, we'll only miss all the good things.
What good things, you ask? Well, for starters,
The secret rapture doctrine teaches that the coming of Jesus will be in two separate stages. The first, a secret rapture of the Church at the beginning of a seven year tribulation period followed by His glorious, audible, triumphant return to Earth accompanied by the Church at the end of the seven years.
It also teaches that during this seven-year period the Antichrist is going to come into power, sit in a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem and declare himself to be God. It says that the war of Armageddon is a literal war of nations against literal Israel, which occurs near the end of the seven years and is ended abruptly by Christ's return with His Church. It says that literal Israel accepts the Lord as the Messiah and enters with Him as His covenant people into the 1000-year reign on earth. Those who ultimately reject Christ's rule will be judged and destroyed at the end of the Millennium.
