I remember the “great” Rapture movement back in the early/mid 60s. In my small town I saw cars with the bumper sticker “In case of Rapture, this car will be unmanned.” I didn’t understand what it meant. then I heard an explanation and I thought, “an interesting view of God and how He works” and never much thought about it after that.

I still don’t worry about “the Rapture” or particularly “when” it will happen because I think I need to be ready for my soul to go to heaven “right now” not after a time of preparation once I “see the signs.”

I have never read any of the “left behind books” back then in the early & mid-70s I found the Mack Bolan novels much more interesting, especially when on a long night shift on Charge of Quarters when I was in the Army.

I still do.

I don't know what I would gain if I expected to be Raptured, or if I thought this event would occur and miss me.
