I do not believe the Rapture has to wait for any Biblical prophetic, End Time signs to be fulfilled. As we face the growing crisis in Israel, and as we understand Israel&#8217;s role in End Time Prophecy, the appearing of our Lord seems more imminent than ever. There are several reasons why the Rapture is our greatest comfort in chaos. Some of the following are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1Thessalonians 1:9&nbsp; For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1Thessalonians 1:10<\/strong>&nbsp; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, <em>even<\/em> Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Patience of the Saints<\/strong>. Wait. Eagerly expect. Disciplined Desire. Continue stedfastly. What part of this shows sinful indulgence? When you wait you <em>want <\/em>whats coming, you <em>walk <\/em>with character, and you <em>worship <\/em>with consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(1Th 3:13)&nbsp; To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Preparation of the Saints<\/strong>. Established in holiness. Unblameable is that which lives in repentance, not reproach. It gives a good reputation. No grounds of accusation. What part of this shows willful ignorance?
