Just wanted to add to the thought of 5 standing for Grace.

In the Bible when things are emphasized they are repeated.  When they are really emphasized they are repeated three times such as Holy, Holy, Holy.

And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.  Isaiah 6:3

So 555 which can represent the date 5/5/05 also can represent Grace, Grace, Grace, which is the only reason some of us will be raptured while others will not.  Instead of "there but for the Grace of God go I", we will have "there only because of the Grace of God, go I".

Remember the sign of Noah will be at the time of the rapture.

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  Matthew 24:37

And the first time the word "Grace" is found in the Bible is in the verse:

But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.  Genesis 6:8

Shalom!
