If you were still with us on Saturday night after 6 pm, you were not
caught up in the "Rapture" and so you are among the sinful who will be
destroyed in 6 months time when Jesus returns to earth for the final
day of judgment. But wait a minute. None of those who expected the
Rapture were caught up by it either. The Rapture didn't happen. So why
did a small fringe element of Christians think Saturday, May 21, 2011
was so important? Are they nuts? Well, in a word, yes. At least
according to Dr. Barbara Rossing, a graduate of Carlton College, Yale
Divinity School and Harvard Divinity School. Dr Rossing is the author
of "The Rapture Exposed" and argues persuasively that "The Rapture is
a racket." This Sunday at 9:45 in the last class of Good Shepherd and
the World, Charles, Rick and Karl lead a talk on the origin of the
Rapture and why believers in the Rapture are not just wrong but
perhaps even dangerous.
