i THINK I understand your perspective.
Thanks for your candor.
I don’t think anyone has it all figured out.
Personally, I suspect there may be more than one ‘catching away.’
I think God has some surprises in store for all of us and certainly for the enemy.
I agree, its pretty clear that the understanding of the end times is still not so clear but, as we get closer I believe more and more will be understood.
One thing I’ve come up with lately is the feeling as I study, that I don’t think the tribulation (the full 7 years as its generally called) is going to come in with a bang like so many think. Other then Daniel giving an indication of its beginning all other prophecies point to the middle as to what to watch for. I find that interesting to say the least.
Also, this adds to the point I mentioned earlier that, if few are truly watching and most don’t believe they’re even going to be here anyway and on top of that it doesn’t ‘start’ like everyone thinks its supposed how will the news of its commencement be taken?
I know that’s alot but look back at Christ’s first coming as an example. The OT is full of the prophecies pointing to (among other things) the virgin birth, the city of his birth, His miracles, and so on and so on and the very people who were supposed to be watching first of all didn’t ‘get it’ and second of all thought he was a heretic and successfully had Him killed.
To me that speaks volumes.
