>>> See 2 Peter 3 as it’s quite clear that life CANNOT go on as everything is destroyed: 10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night

Things may not be as clear to you as you might think.

Clarity here requires that you first understand just what the “day of the Lord” actually is... or more specifically what it is NOT.

1. The day of the Lord is NOT a 24 hour period.

2. The “COMING” of the day of the Lord HAPPENS within the twinkling of an eye. (iow, it BEGINS with an event we know as the rapture)

3. The day of the Lord is actually a millennium in length, with the first week (7 years) being the judgment and destruction of the earth by fire, and is followed by Jesus reigning on the throne of David for 1000 years of peace.

that’s where we differ completely as none of what you said makes any sense at all. There’s entirely too much twisting of Scripture to try to support believers not having to be present at the end of days. Have faith in God to carry you through.
