It is coming, but the Bible itself makes clear that anyone pretending to know when is a charlatan. Live a righteous life and you will be ready. That is all a person should worry about.

This. This. This. Full stop. Thank you.

Anyone who argues otherwise is a either a self-centered fool or a self-serving shyster.

Very correct. The reason we see a lot of noise around the pre-tribulation rapture is that it is a good flag by false prophets like William Miller, Ellen White and the Seventh Day Adventists or the Jehovah's witnesses or Campbell's Pre-tribulation rapture / dispensationalists to get people to join a new group.

It is interesting that these really sprouted (along with Mormons, Christian Scientists etc.) in 19th century America - probably because of the boundless energy with populating a whole continent
