I received this email from my friend D'Nese today and I thought I would share it with you. But first - I wanted to give my opinion....as you know.. I have many of those...
I am a Christian that believes in the rapture. I believe that Christ will one day call up His Church out of the world.. it will happen without warning... without notice..
1 Corinthians 15:51-52 Paul said, "Behold, I show you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will be changed (metamorphosis, a change of body) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye." You won't even realize it's happened until it's all over. Suddenly, you're in the presence of the Lord with ALL the church.
I don't know if it will happen in my life time.... Many believe it will.. But then again - after Jesus went back to Heaven - his disciples believed it was going to happen then too. He will come as a thief in the night.. That is not to say that there are not signs.. there are many... and many are happening today.. right now...

And you have probably seen this one: Israel is the nation most often mentioned in the Bible.
But do you know which nation is second?
It is Iraq !
However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible.
The names used in the Bible are Babylon , Land of Shinar , and Mesopotamia .... The word Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris And Euphrates Rivers ...
The name Iraq means country with deep roots.
Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in the Bible.
No other nation, except Israel , has more history and prophecy associated
With it than Iraq
And also, This is something to think about:

Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages ...
The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)
Koran ( 9:11 ) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah;

And there was peace.
(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?!

Kelly, This was awesome information! I loved the Koran verse and where it was located. 9:11! That is amazing! Thanks for sharing this. I really enjoyed reading it.
christy
I especially loved the verse at the end! Wowee!
That gave me chills. Mind if I copy?
Jerriann, of course you can copy anything you like. I'm glad you like it.
Thank you Christy and Harmony for visiting.
Hello. I believe you contradicted yourself concerning your defense of the rapture. First you said "it will happen without warning...without notice.." but then in your further examination you said "That is not to say there are not signs..there are many...". So which is it, friend? Will there be signs & warnings of Jesus coming to "call forth" his church "like a thief in the night" OR not?
