You have to worship the Beast to get the Mark.

I read an article in Signs of the Times, ........

They are Seventh-day Adventists.

'Nuff said.

Jnett, forget about anything written by man and stick to God's Word, He never lies and never makes mistakes with interpretation! :hug

II wonder though, if we were to go through the tribulation as saved born- again Christians, and took the MOB to eat, buy, sell etc. would we still go to heaven?

No, the Bible makes it clear that if anybody should take the Mark, they are forever lost.

I read an article in Signs of the Times, which suggests that we will not be raptured; I know that many Christians have this view. I wonder though, if we were to go through the tribulation as saved born- again Christians, and took the MOB to eat, buy, sell etc. would we still go to heaven? After all, as saved born-again Christians, nothing can take that away correct? This alone makes me think we will be raptured because in theory Christians could take that mark and still be saved, I would think. What are your thoughts? I should submit this question to the magazine, but I wanted to ask here as well.

Revelation 3:10 (New King James Version)

10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

Luke 21:34-36 (New King James Version)

The Importance of Watching

34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Yes. For confirmation of that, please check out all the many articles on the main RR site. From the FAQ section ...


What is the "rapture" and when will it happen?

The rapture is an event that will take place sometime in the near future. Jesus will come in the air, catch up the Church from the earth, and then return to Heaven with the Church. In 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, we are given a clear description of the rapture: "the dead in Christ will rise, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord."

The main thrust of this web site is to prove that the rapture will occur prior to the beginning of the tribulation. This has been well researched and documented throughout the site. But, whether Jesus returns for the Church before, during, or after the tribulation, the primary goal is that all people are ready to face the Lord and give an account for their lives.

So, would it fall under the heading of apostacy?

It isn't a salvation issue. Believers will be raptured whether they believe in a pre-trib rapture, a post-trib rapture, or no rapture at all.
