I graduated High School in Japan. Dad was in the Military. I was going to college at Auburn University. Got bumped from a commercial passenger jet and was put on a cargo flight to Seattle. 12 hour flight. I spent half of the flight in the cockpit with the Co-Pilot. Landed in Seattle and had to get a ride with an Airman in a jeep to the passenger terminal. I saw a bank of TV's, coin operated, with a connected chair. Dropped about 4 quarters in the slot and watched for about ten minutes. Got my book, went and found a place to hide for my flight six hours later. TV was as boring to me then as it is now. 

Nothing but meaningless background noise.

Wonder how I missed out on the rapture!

[other one]

I would probably just roll over and go back to sleep.

Honestly, I would continue to watch as I like to know what is happening around me.

Then pray for the deceived and to provide strength for the brethren.

What would you do if you woke up in the morning, turned on the TV, and the headline story was, “Jesus has returned!  Reports on sightings from Jerusalem!  Stay tuned!” 

I would remember this:

“People will say to you, ‘Look, there it is!’ or ‘Look, here it is!’ Stay where you are; don’t go away and search. “When the Son of Man comes again, you will know it. On that day he will shine like lightning flashes across the sky.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭17:23-24‬ ‭

 The big issue should be if all the loved ones went missing and I was left behind... Then, if Jesus showed up it would be too late to say, "Forgive me for my sins."  Otherwise these are false Christs.

With all my ❤️ I believe rapture is a false doctrine.

To what pertaining to the rapture do you object?

Jesus's return will be momentous. The bible says ' every eye will see him' He will return with the host of heaven and while people debate about whether people will rise up prior to his return or durring or what ever. We are also told that those who are not his will be terrerfied, calling on the rocks to hide them!

 

So I doubt whether the news media etc will be very effective in reporting his return.

Which means any news program that is pontificating about his return is reporting false news.

 

I would listen/watch for the entertainment.

I hope you will carefully consider the Word of God, David.

2 Thes. 2:1 
Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him

(2) That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Now, has the second advent of Jesus Christ already come to pass?  No, it has not come to pass.

Just a little more information regarding the "man of sin," who is the "son of perdition” that must first be revealed. Who is this "son of perdition," this "man of sin?”  It is Satan.

“A derivative of the Greek term "apollumi," which means to completely demolish, die, or perish, is "perdition”

Apollumi, pronounced ap-ol-loo-mee, is a Greek word that means "to completely destroy," either literally or figuratively. It is derived from the Greek letters apo (575) and olethros (3639);

In Rev. 9:11, Satan is referred to as "Appollyon," the active participle of the Greek word "apollumi."

Rev. 9:11  

And they had as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, but in Greek he has the name Apollyon.

The great apostasy IS the falling away.  When the antichrist appears here on earth, many people will be deceived.  They will worship this antichrist as the true Christ (again, this is the great falling away).

Selah

 

I agree with some of this.

I agree that the second advent of the Lord has definitely not yet come to pass!

I also agree that the "falling away" is "the great apostasy".

I agree that the anti-Christ deceives many people, who worship him as if he were the true Christ.

--------------

I don't agree that the "son of perdition", or the "man of sin" is Satan, although he is probably possessed by Satan.  The term "son of perdition" is applied to two people, in the Bible:

1) Judas Iscariot (the anti-apostle, who was a greedy thief, liar and traitor to the Lord).  The Bible says that Satan entered him, before he betrayed the Lord.

2) The anti-Christ, who is also a man, not only opposing the Lord, but also taking his place (which the Pope does).  One of the Pope's titles of blasphemy is Vicar of Christ, which means "Instead of Christ" (i.e. anti-Christ).
