Dear friends:

Do you believe the rapture will be in 2007? Because of that, do you feel weird, different, like an oddball, and maybe only one of very few.

Don't!  You are not alone.

According to the poll below, a full 1 in 4 Americans believe that!  If that is true, 1 out of every 4 people you pass at the mall believes it.

The poll mentions the "second coming" and not the rapture, but we know the second coming cannot happen until many other things happen.  The rapture is different.  Biblically, it could be in 2007.

Some Americans Expect Jesus' Second Coming in 2007

One in four Americans anticipates the second coming of Christ in 2007. This is one several predictions made by Americans in a recent poll for the new year.

A poll by Ipsos, an international polling firm, found that 11 percent of respondents said it is "very likely" that Jesus will return to Earth this year and 14 percent said it was "somewhat likely."

Among white evangelical Christians, 46 percent said it's at least somewhat likely that Jesus will return in 2007 compared to 17 percent of Catholics and 10 percent of those with no religion.
