Can we stop already with these crazy rapture prophecies?

It's time for the Line of Fire with your host, Biblical Scholar and Cultural Commentator Dr. Michael Brown,

your voice for moral sanity and spiritual clarity.

Call 86634 Truth to get on the line of fire.

And now, here's your host, Dr. Michael Brown.

This is Michael Brown.

Joining us on the line of fire, this is Michael Brown. Here's the phone number, 866,

34 Truth, 866, 3487884. Anything you want to talk to me about,

any subject that relates to the line of fire, I will take some calls today. Major news from Israel,

even though it's not thoroughly Jewish Thursday, we'll get to that major news from Israel as well. But first, I want to

revisit this idea of prophecies about the rapture. I recently did an entire show, well, I did a good

part of a show interacting with a video that's been viewed over 1.8 million times on YouTube,

which claimed that from the first word of Genesis, from the word brecite in Hebrew,

Bait, Rish, Shin, Yud, tuft. So from the five, excuse me,

bait, reish, olive, shin, you'd tuft.

So from the six letters of the first word of Genesis,

that from there you could deduce

that Jesus was going to return

and rapture the church no later than

2003.

Of course, the whole thing's bogus.
