You can construe His exhortation to the pharisees as of import to them only, if you wish.
I've always taken it as an exhortation to me, when I've read it. And I certainly have never considered myself a pharisee--well rarely so!
But you go ahead and ignore whatever Scriptures don't fit your construction on reality. I'm sure God will be impressed.

I'm very comfortable with my assessment of facts and puzzle pieces. I typically wait for God to confirm whatever He chooses to confirm BY EVENTS.

Twisting the Scripture to fit your preconception is a subtle thing. Crouch and Hagee seem to be masters.
I'd be more careful.

Events are very important and are open to much interpretation. As the written word is passed down it is edited and translated many times and is open to great interpretation. The rapture was supposed to happen many times already...
And it happens every day within us. Judgment day is everyday in your own heart.
It is here, it is now.
The kingdom of heaven lies within us.
