Well I'm not what I'd call a religious man, I am supposed to be a christian but as I've got older I like to think that no religion is right, just do good things, for the right reason and you will be rewarded in the end...(well... end of this chapter). Anyway back to the point, despite this I still sometimes wonder if my experience was as some have stated "him":

Here's part of my post from way back (its also in my signature)

I had a normal day, not good, not bad, just normal...went to bed and had what I can only describe as a possible life changing event. This didnt feel like a dream, which is why I woke up my wife and said something along the lines of: "What the *$"R, was that about"

The "experience" I had would be what is typically described by those who have NDE.

I felt like an immense light just emerged, like it surrounded me, and that I too was becoming "the light" I expected it to be blinding and to want to shield my eyes as it started but it wasnt like that at all...I totally get it now when people say this light is made of immense warmth and love!! I started to move towards it and merge with it, It was like my soul was the light and all of a sudden my psyhical life was nothing to worry about leaving, this was meant to happen. So I started merging with this light and for a split second, I get scared, I feel mind literally say "^&3% I don't like this, I want to go back" and I turn to see my wife, I stretch out with one arm, and then for another split second I turn back to the warm loving light and say to my wife "No, its ok, I have to go"....

...I wake up! I guess in more ways than one!

You anticipate.... but without the relevent facts...

there MUST be a great 'Falling Away' first...

last I heard... there were billions of faithful which were thithing Billion$ every week to do Gods work

and that hardly sounds like a Church wide, crisis-in-faith, that preceeds the 'Lords' return by at least 42 months...


please quit piling up garbage so that the faithful will believe a lie and accept the false delusion(s)

To be honest, I feel that I was "Raptured" on May 21, 2011, right on schedule with our illustrious Harold Camping! I am being serious!

My Rapture included the knowledge that I would have to wait for now, possibly even wait until I die of old age before I leave our Mother Earth.

I awoke that day, on May 21, with excitement and anticipation at what and how things would develop that day based on the weeks up to. ATS was buzzing from one end to the other over Harold Camping, both positively and negatively; I was not so much on-board because by then I had already asked our Lord personally to leave me behind, that my work was on the other side of this reality. I then was moved by something said here on ATS, I am not sure who said it or what post but I do clearly remember coming onto a thread and describing it. It was as if a weight was finally lifted from me.

I found out that I had been blaming GOD for all the wrongs in my life. I was blaming GOD for my abusers, for my users, and for my lack-of in my life! It wasn't even obvious at all until it was explained to me. I am sorry for not remembering that thread, and when I look back in my posting History it only takes me back to just about the end of May.

If I applied for a Job and I did not get it, I would say "Why?". If I played the Lottery and did not win, I would say "Why?" If I hurt myself, I would say "Why?" I knew who I was asking, I was asking GOD why? I was asking and then in the same breath I was blaming GOD for not allowing those things to manifest in order to enrich my life and livelihood.

Now when things do not work as positively as they should or with a different outcome than I desired I accept it with an openness as to such thoughts as "how can this be best served?" and "perhaps there is more" and I allow it to reveal the nature of itself. It made me realize that if I did win a ton of money it would all be taken from me as it will be taken from everyone else anyways!

You see, I know the irony of it is that we are Faithful but we still try to hold on and steer the ship from behind; it is best to let the Captain take the reigns so that we can do our work supporting GOD's work.

So, as metaphoric as it may sound, I was literally "Raptured" on that very day of May 21, 2011. I have since been enveloped several times in the Holy Spirit (which I can describe if someone is not familiar with this) and I have been working and praying so that I am lifted from all the pain I have carried for so very long. The measure of pain has reduced but my head is still filled with the workings of evil and so I know in my Heart that I am not worthy to be lifted into Heaven at this time. I must live through the Tribulation. It is during the Tribulation where I will be "Saved", as I know in my heart I have already been "chosen" by Christ to join him in Heaven; it is my hopes that it will be when he has disposed of the AC and his minions back into Hell where they all belong (and their attachments).

I wasn't always Human, I know that now, and I am not nearly as Human as most as I have never been able to find my niche within Society and I have never "fit in". I am a Nature Spirit who has somehow manifested into Human form. I am of this Planet and it is this Planet that I must continue and where I will be granted my Eternal Life. The Earth will have to heal and it will need all of the Nature Spirits that can awaken to the entrapment of Man's doing. I have awoken and I am so very pleased to be here!

I do not have all the answers, few would pertain to anyone unless they were me anyways, but there are several things that do confuse me.

In Revelation 12, pertaining to the Woman cloaked in the Stars with the Moon at her feet. It is proposed that the last occurrence of this astronomical event was in 3 BC (it occurs every year but not with the Moon at her feet nor on Rosh Hashana as it will once again!).

In this chapter it says that a new Son would be born, a male child, who would rule over Mankind with an iron rod, and yet I get the impression that there are many out there that feel that any return would be "the" return of Christ. Why would this not be interpreted as the AntiChrist? To rule over us with an iron rod sounds a bit like a Guard would treat his prisoners wouldn't you think?

So, I do have a tendency to ramble a bit but for what it is worth, just as I changed the "mood" of my Avatar back in May, I believe I have already been "Raptured", I was Raptured from the fate I was placing myself in by blaming GOD and ultimately blaming our LORD above! Not any more! I take all the blame! I accept my fate here on this planet, our Mother, but I will not accept the "mark" and I will not denounce Christ or his Kingdom, they may take my life if they so please as I know in my heart of hearts that my Soul belongs to our LORD and no one else!

Ironically, I am home! Heaven on Earth! Soon but not yet!

Thanks for sharing. I too experienced something of a rapture. On May 21st I found myself in the middle of the desert camping, preparing for a ritual, and fasting. The ritual climaxed early on the 23rd, just after midnight. I walked in the spirit, saw Christ, and was "raptured". The world "ended" there, but luckily I was in Christ-consciousness to renew the world through the ritual. Of course it was not I, but the Christ in me. He returned like a thief in the night.

So now the war in Heaven rages. Things are going to start happening quickly but as always things never quite pan out the way we think they will.
