The Rapture

Matthew 24:40-41: “Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.”

Christians are told that if they don’t measure up (by one of many standards depending on your sect) that they will be left here to experience the cataclysmic tribulation period. However, when viewed metaphorically this rapturous experience occurs internally as we experience ascension within our body! This is cataclysmic indeed! 

Our inner “earth” will be shaken. This scripture in Matthew is a beautiful picture of union. Once we were dual as in two men in a field (the human and the Divine), two women grinding with a hand mill (the human and the Divine). Could it be that this scripture reflects the end of duality as we know it? There were two, and then there is one! Union, wedding, marriage ~ The two shall become one. What a beautiful picture!
