In reply to: Catie 's message, "Do Catholics teach in a second coming of Christ? If so is it referred to as the Rapture?" on 05:32:34 07/25/07 Wed

I'm just going to state what I remember being taught in Catholic School. It is simply this: When Jesus comes again, it will be the end of the world. Those in the state of grace without sins will go to heaven.Those not in the state of grace, and with sin will go to purgatory,suffer for their sins, but will be let into heaven after they have suffered. The people who have done evil acts will go to hell.

I don't know what you are talking about when you refer to the RAPTURE ?

There is no term "Rapture" in the bible. That is what some Christians call the return of Christ. There is a movie out and I can't remember the name of it, but it's about the return of Christ. It adheres to a belief that many protestants have, that Christ will return in a secret sort of fashion. He will take only Christians and leave all others here. Then after some time has passed he returns to judge the earth. Clearly your Church doesn't believe that theory. I have a problem with that one too.
