Rapture

Our pastor briefly mentioned the rapture in his sermon this morning.  As in unless or until we are raptured. Tonight I heard a program speaking of the Daniel prophecy of the seventy sevens.  He believes that the rapture may be soon and very soon.  We are commanded to look up and be on the watch for the return of the Lord. Some believe that the Bible teaches that the Lord meets us in the air in a nanosecond or the twinkling of an eye.  Christ calls all who belong to Him home to heaven.  The dead in Christ rise first and we who are alive follow.

I read of a team bus crash for the Seton Hall ladies lacrosse team. The pregnant coach and the bus driver all died as a result of the accident.  It always makes me think of how quickly our lives here on earth can end.  We never know when our time of death may come.  The Lord states that our times are in His hands.  He determines the day of our conception, birth and death.  Unless He returns for His people at the end of the church age.  Marantha Lord Jesus....
