The pretrib rapture does pass the grace/works test as well as the pride/humble test.
It fits the parable of the 10 virgins in Mathew

Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
Mat 25:3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
Mat 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
Mat 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
Mat 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Mat 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Mat 25:8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
Mat 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.
Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Mat 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

onlt 5 virgins were ready ... 5 is the number of grace it is what Abraham and Sarah found after God changed their name 5 means grace

agreed! Also which interpretation lives every day like Jesus Christ will call us up today!

How about suffering for Christ works problems. We need to earn our salvation thru suffering. Posttribs, preterists, and catholics fall into that trap.

Here is a funny one. Those that believe we will see the antichrist say we will loose our faith when we see him and not be raptured! LOL
