Admins, I'm not sure if this is where this particular article should go. If I have put it in the wrong place, would you move it to where it belongs? Thank you. :)
Several months ago, I was catching up on some reading on the Rapture Ready main site. I came across this article that was reposted from 2005 by Brian Price, "The Blessed Hope: A Closer Look Into the Rapture". It is a GREAT article, and I highly encourage all of you to read it.

About half way through the article, he brought up an interesting point that I had never thought about before. He brought up the point that even the demons believe in the rapture, and went on to explain what different groups have to say about the rapture, and why so many people will disappear.
(Scroll down through the article to "Even the Demons Believe and Tremble")
One of the groups mentioned in this article really caught my attention..."Share International". The reason it caught my attention is that just recently I had noticed that this particular group was placing advertisements in our local papers!
Sometimes these advertisements are a little black box with white writing, and sometimes they are white boxes with black writing. Most of them read just like this:
The One Prophesied
by all the world's religions will soon be seen by everyone. He will not endorse any single religion over any other. He will not come across as a religious figure. He will be known as the "World Teacher" & is full of perfect wisdom and love for everyone.
He'll inspire mankind to see itself as one family & to rebuild the world so that it is a great place for everyone. The time for war, poverty, & corrup politicians, has passed.
Read all about it! Call for free literature:
The advertisement gives a toll-free phone number and the website for Share-International.org
(Quoted word for word from my local paper, as I saved one of the advertisements to share with this board. I hope it is okay to do this????)
If you visit their website, they are eagerly awaiting this "World Teacher" and they call him Maitreya.
I found Brian's article very encouraging and uplifting, and it made me look at the rapture from a different perspective...through the eyes of the enemy! I have to say that I had never thought about what false religions taught about the rapture, or how they would explain it away.
This Maitreya speaks through Benjamin Creme, who is paving the way for Maitreya to enter this world. It appears that quite a bit of their religion is based on New Age practices such as channeling. They promote world peace, "sharing" what we have...dividing up everthing equally to alleviate poverty and world hunger, and of course, the coming of the "World Teacher", Maitreya.
It puts an entirely different spin on the rapture, doesn't it? :)
