You know the reason why I stopped being a pretrib believer? specifically because of such people. over and over again these so called scholars the watchmen of the wall these teachers these people who done the research and have narrowed it down to the T are all over youtube and all over the web. some do it simply for views and subscribers and thus make butt loads of money others do it with good intentions but are waaaay off the mentality to do it others still think themselves authorized by God to do these things and keep his church filled with hope for his return and yet the fact they continue try to predict when he will come and how they constantly are pulling at straws setting date and setting certain things and events to signify the time is near only brings more and more disappointment for those who believe them.
I was a new believer and I only learned about the rapture within the first nine months of being saved and I in my ignorance sought after such people on youtube many who i know now as false prophets and self declared speakers of god's words and voice utterly destroyed my hope in the rapture in fact it began to be so bad that the rapture was no longer hope for me I became so spiritually exhausted just hearing the word rapture and had to beg God to cut my ties with the rapture until I was mature and ready to grasp it and deal with it which I clearly was not.
Even now as much I want to believe in it as much as I want to have hope that he might be that close to taking us home I am still unable to allow myself to for fear of being destroyed like I was before. I checked up on these false teachers and false prophets a while back to see if they had maybe had a change of heart but what I saw was that they are continuing their same things and what infuriated me was how so many people were buying into it and being misled. The damage such people did me....I cannot bear the thought of them doing this to so many others and it infuriated me I was so angry that they would continue to do this and damage people giving them false hope only to be let down but such people have not yet learned what is going on and so even though they are continually let down they still cling to these teachers.
The protective anger that father feels for his children that fire that burns in his eyes, when I saw this I knew it all to well even just speaking of it and remembering it makes me boil inside
