If the 'Rapture' is indeed coming tomorrow, I'll still be here the following day and, I believe, most of us here will be left behind as well.

See, I'll be in excellent company - woo woo -

I hope to get left behind.

I still have money left in the bank I haven't spent. I could draw it out and spend it before tomorrow, but then, I couldn't pay the rent - if the world doesn't end. Decisions...decisions.

After all only 2% of the world's population will meet the criteria to be raptured. What an arrogant ass to think that 98% deserve to suffer like he is predicting. Now if 98% were taken to heaven and 2% left to suffer I could understand those percentages. A good episode of the Twilight Zone would be of this to happen and everyone is raptured except for Camping because he was not supposed to tell anyone.

I still think space aliens are going to rescue us from the planet before it is destroyed.

I'm bored so I'll play:

I would love the "rapture" to happen ... but all those who think they're going up I'd get them to sign over all their property for the time they think it will happen, then when they don't go up, I own them all! BWAHAHAHA!

This comes from a result of someone only reading part of the Bible and not all of it, when you read the whole thing, you realize as I have that the Rapture is likely never to happen, ever.

There are lots of reasons for this but you will need to read the BIBLE yes that one, read Revelations the last book in the Bible, maybe I should be more clear, the last book of the New Testament of the Bible and a Protestant one at that. It you read the Catholic Bible then you will need to look Apocryphal books. of course the Jews stop at the end of the old testament and have no clue about this along with the rest of the world.

FWIW.....The Mayan calendar ends in December 2012 so I kinda think that tomorrow will not be the rapture. Otherwise, it would have ended tomorrow.

Speaking of Calendars ours end on Dec 31st, I know I have one, actually it goes to Jan 31st, now if the world was ending tomorrow why would business waist so much paper?

Its a good thing this is cyberspace because if this was being printed on paper I would need to put a stop to the waist.

Growing up Catholic I was not aware of Revelation. I think now the Catholic bible has a small part of the book of revelation. Again do not hold me to this since I am far removed from organized religion.

There will be no Rapture tomorrow

I feel petty for those who are misled by the whims of fools

All because they don’t know what is written in the very

books they hold so dear

Whew...the end of the world only starts tomorrow - although it is Judgment Day. We actually have until October 21 until God finishes us off. He's going to subject some of us to five months of Hell on Earth before he destroys the world - those he doesn't kill tomorrow with earthquakes.

All the dead are going to be raised tomorrow, though. Will we have a bunch of zombies walking around? Is this the Rapture or The Return of the Living Dead?

THE END OF THE WORLD: OCTOBER 21st, 2011

By God’s grace and tremendous mercy, He is giving us advanced warning as to what He is about to do. On Judgment Day, May 21st, 2011, this 5-month period of horrible torment will begin for all the inhabitants of the earth. It will be on May 21st that God will raise up all the dead that have ever died from their graves. Earthquakes will ravage the whole world as the earth will no longer conceal its dead (Isaiah 26:21). People who died as saved individuals will experience the resurrection of their bodies and immediately leave this world to forever be with the Lord. Those who died unsaved will be raised up as well, but only to have their lifeless bodies scattered about the face of all the earth. Death will be everywhere.

The Lord also emphasizes these awful 5 months of destruction in the final verse of Genesis, chapter 7:

Genesis 7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.

Five months after May 21st, 2011 will be October 21st, 2011. It so happens that October 21st of 2011 is also the last day of the Biblical Feast of Tabernacles (held simultaneously with the Feast of Ingathering). Tabernacles is held in the 7th month of the Hebrew calendar. The way God speaks of this feast in the Bible is very significant:

Exodus 23:16 …the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.

Exodus 34:22 And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.

The Feast of Tabernacles / Ingathering was said to be in the “end of the year” even though it was observed in the Hebrew 7th month, which is not the end of the year. The reason for this is that the spiritual fulfillment of this particular feast is the end of the world. The date October 21st, 2011 will be the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles and the last day of earth’s existence. The Bible describes what will take place on October 21st, 2011 in the following passage:

2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Along with the entire world and universe, all those who have sinned against God and were left behind will likewise be consumed by this fire and be eternally destroyed:

2 Thessalonians 1:8,9 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

On October 21st, 2011, God will completely destroy this creation and all of the people who never experienced the salvation of Jesus Christ along with it. The awful payment for their sinful rebellion against God will be completed by the loss of everlasting life. On October 21st, 2011, all of these poor people will cease to exist from that point forward. How sad that noble man, made in God’s image, will die like a beast and perish forever:
