o.  but there isn't anything special about 0000. No-one can "enthrone" the antichrist when they don't know who he is. Furthermore, scripture tells us that the Church won't leave at the Rapture until we DO know who he is.  It means that they prepare to do it. It is like preparing for death. You don't know how or when it's gonna happen, but you know it will. People do it without even being aware of it.  And IO have still not seen anything that has convinced me that the Church shall disappear before the coming of Antichrist.  well, it gets to Heaven before the Advent somehow! Do you mean you are unconvinced by scripture?  0 Thessalonians 0:0For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way.0 Thessalonians 0:0-0 (in Context)  do you think it is a coincidence that in Revelation, the Church disappears throughout the WHOLE of the description of the Tribulation and God's judgement on the EARTH?  It is the Church which is the receptacle of the Gospel. Why do you think that here:  Revelation 00:0[ Vision of the Angel with the Gospel ] And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having an eternal gospel to preach to those who live on the earth, and to every nation and tribe and tongue and people;Revelation 00:0-0 (in Context)  the Gospel is having to be returned to the earth?  I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. This does in no way indicate that the Church shall dissapear before the Second Coming. Again, this is just your interpretation.  that is just a tired myth. Which bit requires "interpretation"? Either the Church is in heaven before the Second Advent or it isn't. "Ridiculous" is not an answer.
