The pre-trib rapture actually originated in 1830 in Scotland, by a delirious, ill girl named Margaret MacDonald, and Darby and another preacher were in contact this girl, and they ran with it.
There is a famine in these end times:
"Behold the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:" Amos 8:11 (KJV Companion Bible)
Jer. 2:28;11:10-14 God says "Where are your gods you made for yourselves? let them save you if they are able"
2 Thess. 2:8-12 If people want to believe a lie, God will send it to them.(vs. 11)
"Have ye not seen a vain vision, and ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, 'The Lord saith it;' albeit I have not spoken?" Ez. 13:7
"Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; 'Behold, I am against your pillows, (coverings which conceal) wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly." Ez. 13:20
God hates the Rapture Doctrine, and speaks against it.
There is an apostasy:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, vs. 4 "Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the Temple of God, shewing himself that he is God." 2 Thess. 2:3-4
There is only one "son of perdition", and that is Satan:
13 "Thou has been in Eden the garden of God;....14 "Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth".....15 "Thou was perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee".....16...."therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.".....17 "Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty...."I will cast thee to the ground".....18 "therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee."....19 "All they that know thee shall be astonished at thee".....and never shalt thou be anymore." Ez. 28:13-19 (in portions)
Satan has already been tried, judged, condemned and sentenced to die the 2nd death. Satan is a dead man walking. But,
he's just arrogant enough that he thinks he can still win against God.
Daniel 11:21-24 Speaks of the appearance of Satan as Anti-Christ when he makes his appearance here on the earth, after he's kicked out of heaven by Michael the Archangel (Rev. 12:7-9) He arrives here "transformed" (disguised) peaceably, and with flatteries, claiming to be God, claiming to be Jesus Christ at the 6th Seal, the 6th Trumpet, the 6th Vial, before, before Jesus returns at the 2nd Advent, which is at the 7th Seal, the 7th Trumpet, the 7th Vial. (Rev 13:2-11 the one-world government, and the false religious system Satan (the dragon) sets up)
The world follows after Satan (Lucifer, Anti-Christ, the dragon), thinking that he is Jesus Christ returned to save them.
Rev. 13:8 states who it is that will worship Satan.
Rev. 14:9 states what happens to those who don't bother to educate themselves in the word of God, and are ignorant of these things, and also those who are atheist, and those who hate God, and Jesus Christ.
I've probably overloaded my lip with too much info, but this is what I've learned from God's true word. Good night
