I need to start Getting ready.

Out of a moment of learning I suddenly had a moment of reality. this reality came as I started to look at (what the bible calls) THE RAPTURE. Now as far as I can tell this is when Jesus returns to earth and takes the people to heaven that have been ''born again''........ But does he?

Luke 14 v16-26 tells the Parable of the banquet. This is where a rich guy invites three mates to have dinner. All three turn down the offer. The first guys says ''I have just brought a new field and need to go see it''. The 2nd guys says "I've just ordered some new cows and need to collect them'' and the third says ''I Just got married so cant come''

This Man Then tells his survant to go into the streets and invite the poor and hungry people to come and feast on the food, He then say ''The Invited ones that had more important stuff to do will not have any of this banquet''

Looking at some of the stuff about ''The Rapture'' has brought the Parable of the Banquet into context. The three people that had more important things to do did not share the feast. they choose to do other things in life (and ok taken the situation of the story they may have had a good reason) but the like all parable there was a point to this parrable that Jesus told.

To enter the kingdom of heaven is not easy and looking at some of the reasons its not easy also could mean many ''Christians'' will not go with the father to heaven, Including me.Scary hey, but Im not trying to scare you. I looked at stuff it said we should be free from to enter heaven. Addictions, Lust and all kind of worldly piossons. Holding grudges not forgiving, not tithing, not sharing the the bible and your faith, the list goes on.

So I came to the conclusion that I (and maybe many others) need to do more to earn our place in heaven because if we are left behind after the rapture the world will be a very different place (for the worse) and one that will lack moral. Every man for himself will be the way of survival, Brother will turn against Brother, Children will turn against Parents. OK Ill stop that now as Im in danger of being accused of being MAD.

The fact of the mater is being a beliver in god will not get you into heaven. It needs more work than just believing, and shockingly Im not yet ready ARE YOU?
