Dear John,
Thank you so much for keeping this site up and active for us "watchers."  So many sites I've visited prohibit discussing "date setting."  Personally, I don't know why anyone would NOT want to know.  It only fires me up EVEN MORE to get God's message out in whatever manner I can!  If we knew FOR CERTAIN that Jesus was coming back, say, next Wednesday, for example, wouldn't we change the way we witness?  Wouldn't we be emboldened to proclaim His gospel everywhere we go?  It's the same with knowing when the Rapture is going to occur.  It should embolden us to proclaim Jesus' message all the more.

Just as importantly, however, is the fact that even if Jesus tarries beyond this year, our own personal time isn't going to last forever, and we still need to do God's work while there's still time for us.  We have THE greatest gift to offer others, and yet we keep it to ourselves.

Anyway, thanks so much, John, for offering a forum for us to pour out our hearts and our thoughts regarding the Rapture.  Here's praying we'll meet in the air soon -and very soon.!

YsiC, Rhonda

Hi Rhonda,
One thing we can be sure of is no one knows the rapture date for sure! :) However, Scripture does not prohibit date discovering contrary to the thinking of many Christians. We need to HOPE with optimism but not with reckless abandon. The rapture clues that we have been given may or may not lead us to the true date of the rapture. But another thing that is certain: If we are onto the right clues leading to the right date, everything will fall into place and the solution will be PERFECT. Right?
John
