Hi Joe,
 
I have been thinking more about the Fake Rapture scenario that you mentioned in your previous post http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/may2004/jhoyle522.htm which is accomplished by a major alien abduction, and then the return of several million people, who have been previously abducted and microchipped.  Whether this Fake Rapture scenario takes place before the Real Rapture or after the Real Rapture, I would agree that we should not get all shaken up about this and lose our heads over it.   If these millions of abducted and microchipped people being returned to earth are supposed to be the saints returning with Christ at his second coming to Earth, we all know that the saints don't return to earth with Christ until the end of the tribulation period and after all the events have taken place in the book of Revelation. Zechariah 14 shows all the saints returning with Christ when he plants his feet on the Mount of Olives, and Rev. 19:14 shows all the saints as armies returning with Christ at the end of the tribulation period.
 
As for the Fake Rapture scenario mentioned in the two cuttingedge articles that I sent you where the TV shows people vanishing along with liberal pastors going into hiding to make everyone think that the Real Rapture has taken place and that the born again believers missed the Rapture, we all know that liberal pastors believe that abortion and homosexuality are not sins when they really are sins because the Bible says they are.  So if liberal pastors are missing and born again pastors aren't, that alone should indicate that it is a Fake Rapture.
 
However, here is one Fake Rapture scenario that I just thought of.  What if the NWO kidnapped a bunch of born again pastors before the Real Rapture so that they were missing along with the TV showing these born again pastors vanishing and lots of other people vanishing at the same time.  Born again believers expect born again pastors to be in the Rapture, right?  Would that shatter your faith to be left behind?  How would we know if these born again pastors and their families were taken in the Rapture or really locked up in custody as a threat against the NWO if someone came and took them in the middle of the night and no news source told us they were kidnapped?  Just keep this in mind if this scenario for a Fake Rapture occurs. If a Christian's born again pastor vanishes and his entire congregation remains, this is most likely a Fake Rapture.   However, if a Christian's born again pastor is taken in the Real Rapture and they are left behind, they will definitely know it when the mark of the beast is implemented and it has to be taken in the forehead or in the right hand in order to buy or sell; and every Christian knows better than to take the mark of the beast.
 
Now if born again pastors were kidnapped to stage a Fake Rapture, and then fallen angels disguised themselves to look like the born again pastors who are then returned to earth as saints returning with the Christ, who really is the antichrist, and not Jesus Christ, again the saints return to earth with Jesus Christ at the end of the tribulation period and after all the events have taken place in the book of Revelation.  Just some things for you and all the Doves to think about.
 
God bless you,
Donna
