The truth is that, all the Christians are going to suffer. The rapture came out from the 18-19th centuries.

We better get ready to suffer for our faith in the Lord.

Mas non my FRiend.

Today we suffer for our good, for the refining of our faith. But we who have received Christ and his perfect redemptive work will NEVER have to suffer his wrath because his wrath for us was already poured out on the body of Jesus Christ on the Cross 2000 years ago and it would be unrighteous and unjust for God to pour out his wrath again upon us.

[We now] wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come (1 Thess 1:10).

For God has not appointed us to wrath (1 Thess 5:9).

Nope we'll see it all from the mezzanine during and after partying in the marriage supper of the Lamb (Rev. 19:7-9). See you there.

Yes - wee need to be prepared because the time will come like a thief in the night. I won't argue one way or the other on the Rapture - too many Theologians with diverse views - I'll just trust that it occurs the way He has in mind.

Sure would be a nice surprise to find out the Rapture folks are right though....
