..the remnant?

...Yes?

Well, your strip said "everyone who was saved was lifted up", so who would know you weren't. I was just saying that, according to the biblical account anyway, NOT all the saved will be lifted up, a remnant will be left to continue the work of bringing people to christ, and they would know you weren't. Just felt i needed to clarify.

Thanks for clarifying!
I didn't actually know about the idea of the remnant, thanks for telling me about it (though as far as I can tell from looking it up, it doesn't seem to be a very widely-held belief).

As for the comic, I think it's fair to say that in any case the narrator's working knowledge of theology is less than perfect...

You're welcome.

Ironically the pastor at my home church has been doing a series on the 70 weeks of Daniel, which includes the tribulation and rapture, etc. I asked him about the remnant and it is his belief that everyone who is a born again believer will be taken up, and the remnant, those left to carry on Christ's work on earth, would be the people who perhaps knew about the future events before but were not born again, and were convinced and "saved" by witnessing the events. I.E. they would become believers either in the midst of the rapture or shortly after.

Not sure if that clarifies anything for you. I was unsure as to how it fit in to scripture myself, which is why I asked him.

And I think it is safe to say, that at best, we can only hope for our knowledge to be something less than perfect, no?
