This is a kind of weird topic for me to be in, because just last night I was lying awake in my bed, thinking about the end of the world. Then I see this topic. That's kind of creepy.
I haven't watched or read the Left Behind series simply because I hate, hate, hate thinking about the end of the world. There is so much more that I want to do with my life, and I don't want to sit around and worry every few minutes that I am going to die soon.
I am spiritual, but I am not the average Christian. I believe in God, I have actual reason to believe in God, but they are my own personal reasons. I couldn't tell them to somebody else and make them believe, but they mean something to me. So I do believe in revelations, which is another name for the rapture, or apocalypse, but... I really don't like to think about it.
I don't believe it will happen in 2012, actually. I think that if it is soon, no one is going to see it coming. No one is going to predict it. But... I am glad that if it really does happen, then that really does mean that there is a God, and that we really will live on in the afterlife... I don't ever want to actually die and be gone.
So in a way I welcome the rapture, an in others I fear it. I don't want to believe in it, but that is only the fear speaking in me. I believe in it truly.
