Rapture time
So it's 530 am in Jerusalem right now and I've not heard a lot about this rapture. I had assumed it would be based on their time so maybe I'm wrong? Anyone know which timezone we're watching here.
In all honesty I don't think I'd be raptured away anyhow...

I think it was supposed to be at supper time. Not sure if it's Jerusalem time or a rolling rapture.

So Israel will be able to finish supper and settle in for the night while I won't get a last supper here on the West Coast. No fair.
So I hear this guy was still asking for donations today... IS he afraid he won't be raptured?

Does make you wonder, doesn't it. After all, we all know the old adage, "you can't take it with you."

What do you think the odds are he's boarding a plane for Tahiti tonight? OR he sends everyone home to be with family tomorrow and disappears...

He still has 72 million dollars in personal worth, don't you know. If he was so sure of his rapture calculations wouldn't you think he would have spent more of his wealth on trying to convnce people the end was near? Or donated it to shelters or places where the money had the most chance of converting unbelievers to the cause? Since he left such a large portion of his wealth untouched, my guess is he is more invested in his cash than in his belief in an imminent rapture.

And my guess is, you're 100% right. The man is preying on those who want to believe. When he goes, unless he changes his way, I don't figure it will be in the rapture.

Actually, I heard it was 6 pm Pacific time. So I figure that gives me lots of time for chores today because I have to make room for all the stuff I'm gonna loot after everyone else is gone. One of my neighbors has a real nice giant screen tv I plan on grabbing first............:happy0035:

We're not mocking God. We're mocking this charlatan using God's name to make himself famous and rich(er).
