“Christians expecting to be “raptured” may not be prepared for whatever is coming, sort of in like lacking oil for their lamps.”

Thanks, That’s a perfect analogy and one that we were even warned of by Jesus.

Oh, interesting history in the family there.

I believe the rapture doctrine is one of the most dangerous doctrines ever taught in that it causes Christians to be nonchalant, and unprepared for the things coming on this earth. Instead, they are expecting to mysteriously vanish and suffer nothing when the bible is explicit that Christians will see suffering, and even clearer that those who endure until the end shall be saved.
