Our great hope is not the rapture. Our great hope is the messiah and the blood that he shed for the remission of sin on calvary. That is the single tenet of faith that puts us all together. Protestant, Catholic, Jew anybody who really understands the scripture.

Yes, you are correct, however the "harpazo - catching up" (1 Thes 4:17), and "episunagoge - gathering unto him up above" (2 Thess 2:1), are part of that Blessed Hope...
Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. 15 These things speak , and exhort , and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
