Point of Rapture
As demonstrated in the historical truth of Sodom and Gomorrah, when Lot was taken out at the last minute before destruction, and as indicated by the Apostle Peter, that the Lord, to our understanding, seems slow to keep His promise of return, because He desires that no one perishes eternally, we know that Jesus will come suddenly to snatch His people from this world right before the judgment of the tribulation.
God is waiting for every last soul that will put their trust in Jesus as Savior to do so. Simultaneously, He is waiting for wickedness to reach a threshold that He will no longer tolerate, to the detriment of His people.
Therefore, when these two factors meet that God-given point of intersection, Jesus will whisk away His followers from this world, and then God will usher in the tribulation period.
The number of truly righteous people declines as the last-days apostasy sets in, and wickedness grows as godlessness and lawlessness increases. Surely, a number of falsely “spiritual” people still exists, but only those dedicated to the truth of Jesus Christ are righteous, for it is only the blood of Jesus Christ that He shed on the cross that can make any of us right with God.
The rapture is coming. Judgment is coming. Jesus is then coming back with His people to set up His millennial kingdom. Amen!

“The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but hat all should reach repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9)
“As morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, ‘Up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be swept away in the punishment of the city.’ But he lingered. So the men seized him and his wife and his two daughters by the hand, the Lord being merciful to him, and they brought him out and set him outside the city.” (Genesis 19:15-16)
“And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.” (Matthew 24:10-12)
“For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)
