[@christianamor8828]

I partly agree. We do not know the time or the hour but we do know the season. Matthew 24:32-33, Luke 21:30-31. For the end to come two key things must have taken place based on what Jesus said. 1) The gospel has to be preached to all the nations and all the people. 2) Israel has to be restored as a nation. Then the physical plagues will come as the nations will reject Christ. Remedial judgments to urge them to rethink their error. Then things will get really bad. The four horsemen of the apocalypse will ride. Will the temple be rebuilt physically? My estimation is that it will. Satan wants to imitate God as we can learn from many examples in the Bible like Exodus. So a physical manifestation of a false messiah to mislead the multitudes is quite plausible. Will we be raptured? We already suffer now together with all our persecuted brothers and sisters. And if we do not suffer now than to what extent are we really Christian? The Bible shows us the rapture in many stories before God unleashes His wrath. Noah's ark. The angels leading Lot and his family away before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. Does Luke 17:26-30 also not refer to this? To me it is very clear that we are nearing the end of the world. The word of God says it is time. The Bible is clear that the end will come some day. The beginning of the end started on Golgotha. Someday we will return to God. Whether through death or through rapture is not up to us. The question is will we be ready when it comes. We must always be ready to die in order to live.
