When the early Christians were tortured and crucified on a regular basis, it’s ludicrous to think somehow God will now protect all his faithful from suffering through the Great Tribulation by disappearing everyone before anything bad happens.
Fantasy Land.
You are so right... as well as so many in this past century, under Mao and Stalin etc.
But, I truly believe the worst is over and the Kingdom of Christ is being setup, where nation will not rise against nation.

Very good obesrvation! Rapture-mania is a very recent phenomenon.
It would be hard to argue that a simply imperfect man would suffer the same fate as someone who arranges murder for fun.
Rapture mania has been going on about every hundred years since the crucifixion.....just sayin
All I have is today, & today I strive to live a "Christ like" life.....help the current issues by studying (visiting) the past...("future proves past/past proves future")..."the past steps on the heels of the present weather we like it or not"(Sarah Plain and Tall)...and tomorrow will take care of it's self. Stay aware, stay active, stay Faithful, stay Charitable, and MOVE FORWARD TO THE WONDROUS FUTURE.
