The common description of what the rapture is, is what came later. The bible does indeed talk about armageddon and the return of Jesus Christ. The idea people are just gonna be pulled into the sky is the non-biblical part.
Depends on the denomination, I think. Dunno about others but for Orthodox Christians the soul goes to heaven(or gets to be judged by God, actually) after 40 days because that’s how long Jesus took to ascend after his death.
Bunch of hell-bound papists in this thread, got it. For what it’s worth, I’ll speak up for y’all with the big guy, but…I don’t know that he’ll listen. You know, in light of everything.
Fun fact: Everyone goes to purgatory when they die. You don’t see the sorting hat to be placed in Heaven or Hell until the rapture.
I mean, not that any of it is true, but the rapture shit was made up way later than the “original” text. It’s fan fiction essentially.

Climbing stairs for 40 days sounds like its own hell.
For my branch(es) of evangelicalism growing up, purgatory simply wasn’t a concept.
I’m such a degenerate, I saw evangelicalism and thought it was a religion for neon genesis evangelion.
Purgatory was one of the big issues that started the Protestant reformation in the first place.

LOL. The Catholics have their issues, but I’m not sure the Evangelicals have much room to be criticizing. You know, in light of everything.
Hey, potatoes are pretty awesome
Not according to Catholic lore
