"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

The rapture would supposedly take place after a prolonged period of time, decades if not longer, marked by deep pain and countless suffering by all of humanity. During which, the majority of humanity will in fact perish in awful circumstances.
The rapture out of a clear blue sky is a pure evangelical hopium dream that expressly contradicts not only the assorted traditions and beliefs of the actual church but even the actual biblical passages they claim to base this misinterpretation from.
If someone is anticipating the rapture they are deeply ignorant of the basic fundamentals of their own religion, e.g. a typical evangelical.
Keeping it a buck if I was still in the church like I was before my family found out I was seeing a man, I think I'd assume these times right now were the end-times.
you clearly missed the passage about the gog magog war. silly tankie
