Quite frankly I've never understood the entire "Rapture" piece (the Harold Camping version, not the Blondie version -- the blondie version I get :) -- why get so obsessed about what's going to happen in the end-times? Be good, follow God and don't worry about tomorrow.
The end-times, the last days, the end of the age started with the Lord's advent:
In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.
But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.
--Book of Hebrews

In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. Three ages of the Earth: pre-incarnate Jesus, incarnate Jesus, and post-incarnate Jesus.
May He have mercy upon us all.

(I would not believe in the Gospel, if the authority of the Catholic Church did not move me to do so.)
