“I’ve read Revelation several times and see no need for a rapture.”

It should then be a cake walk for you and those “Left behind”
Revelation 9:5-7
King James Version
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
Ah, but God will place his own mark on the heads of his followers, that they will not be harmed. That is as good as a rapture to me.
