Keep learning!   Hint: every word in the Bible is true and if you ask, G-d will teach you there really are no contradictions.   Major hint: every prophecy concerning Israel and the people of G-d is true.   Question all preconceived notions that you learned in the Christian church, including just who G-d considers to be His church because it isn't who you think any more.  The answer is in the Word of G-d.

Yes, the pre-trib rapture doctrine is nonsense, but so is preterism.   Think: has Damascus become a ruined heap, yet? Has G-d drawn all nations against Israel to battle and destroyed their armies, with a flesh rotting disease yet?   If so, when did it take 7 months to gather the bones and bury their dead?   Has the mount of Olives been split in two yet?   There are only a few of many bible prophecies that remain to be fulfilled and today seem quite likely.

That was meant to be a reply to Matchet and a c.c. to everyone else.  My apologies if that wasn't clear.

I think you and I have come to some of the same conclusions! Gee, you mean I am not alone?:)
