Does it really matter? If you're living your life according to His word, would you not be prepared regardless of if/when a rapture occurs?
I feel it important to always audit ourselves to determine how we utilize our resources.
Thanks for reading.
Well said dearly beloved and GOD because of LORD JESUS CHRIST have made you simply right to have a righteous say on what is Grace and Truth.
This is because this thing 'written', as being 'taken up', will happen unexpectedly. It is written that 'no one' knows the date, hour or time, but the 'FATHER'.
Even in the parable of the 'Ten Virgin' (blameless, unstained, sinless = virgin), the bridegroom was 'a little late' than expected. Even yet being virgins, five of them were not well prepared to meet the groom and were left behind. Looks like the expectation of 'entry' is 'high'.
One - such an individual must be a virgin (blameless, unstained, undefiled. etc.)
Two - one who is well prepared to meet the bridegroom, taking with them 'extra amount of oil for their lamp', because they were wise and ahead of time have knowledge that the bridegroom might be a little late
Three - Their 'lamp' must 'remain burning' until HE returns.
As it is written;
"Workout your salvation (New Covenant teachings of the LORD JESUS CHRIST) in fear and trembling."
In the name of LORD JESUS CHRIST, remain faithful to what you have been taught by the Helper, the HOLY SPIRIT, and receive them all, like a 'child' and not like the 'wise and prudent', to whom the Spiritual revelation knowledge into all written Holy Scripture is hid from their understanding, by the FATHER..
And so they love to debate, content and compete with each other (just like the Jewish council members did, during regarding CHRIST), regarding the written Scripture. Even the LORD's return and gone, they were not aware of and were 'left behind'.
As it is written;
"To him who have ears, let him listen."
