This is why I do NOT believe in the rapture. It teaches a false notion that believers are going to get out early, when in fact, they are being persecuted all around the world. By Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, Communists and liberals in the Western World.

Christians: The world's most persecuted people - Comment - Voices - The Independent

"Most people in the West would be surprised by the answer to the question: who are the most persecuted people in the world? According to the International Society for Human Rights, a secular group with members in 38 states worldwide, 80 per cent of all acts of religious discrimination in the world today are directed at Christians.The Centre for the Study of Global Christianity in the United States estimates that 100,000 Christians now die every year, targeted because of their faith – that is 11 every hour. The Pew Research Center says that hostility to religion reached a new high in 2012, when Christians faced some form of discrimination in 139 countries, almost three-quarters of the world's nations."

I believe in the body presence of Christ and our gathering together unto him.....

I believe it is POST TRIBULATION/PRE-WRATH and comes at the 7th trump of REVELATION which allows for the persecution and murder of the SAINTS when the little horn/beast makes war against them and wears them out for 3.5 years or 1260 days or 42 months!

Here is the ENDURANCE of the saints.....those who imprison you will be imprisoned
those who kill you...will in like manner be killed!

dia much thilipsis we must enter into the KINGDOM of GOD
In the world ye shall have thilipsis, be of good cheer for I have overcome the world!

??? What "rapture" teaches that we are gonna "get out early?"

Not the "rapture" I believe in.............not even close............

???

When that Eastern Sky splits, and the Lion of Judah appears, and the dead rise first to meet Him in the air, and those remaining are in the twinkling of an eye changed....................

THAT'S IT! THE END!

Game, Set, Match.................JUDGEMENT DAY............

Christians have been persecuted since day 1 but that does not nullify a rapture.
This runs a false assumption that all christians must suffer in the same way.

Christians are the world's most persecuted people but notice that the media is always ignoring and downplaying this fact.

The media is relentless on Christians. Not just the media but most people that ever lived or are now living. Many that followed Christ in the Bible were put to death for their belief in Him. The media has recently told the world that Aliens Will Go to Hell. Read the story here: https://answersingenesis.org/astronomy/alien-life/are-aliens-going-to-hell/

Why does the media spend so much money and time denying Christianity? They know that if Christianity is true then how they live their lives would have to change. The 'rules' of Christianity won't allow for the lifestyles that many in the media now live.

Sadly, the day is coming that everyone that denies our Lord Jesus Christ and His instructions on how we are to live this life terrifies them. But in the end, "For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God." Romans 14:11

Maybe we should get our nation, like the jews did,
and from there bomb the %&#@ out of the rest of the world.
But what should OUR promised land be? Palestine has already been taken.
Wait, I know: let's invade 'Murica! ;)

How about the churches speaking out against the atrocities perpetrated on Christians worldwide especially in Muslim countries?
Many Christians silent as in Germany with the Jews ...today with their own brothers and sisters.
