The Week in Bible Prophecy, a Prophecy Watchers podcast.

Hello, I'm Gary Stearman.

This is Prophecy Watchers with me, Mando Gonzalez.

And Mando, we don't have enough time to talk about all that's happening in Bible prophecy these days.

It's speeding up. It seems like every single day it's hard to keep up, but that makes it exciting.

It does. Maybe one of the most exciting times to be alive ever. And you know what's amazing about it is next week will be just as much because we don't see a letting

up on any of the stuff that we're watching unfold.

It's been pretty crazy.

You know what interests me right now is the controversy about the rapture of the church.

For years and years we've studied about the rapture, and from every point of view you can think of the pros and cons and so forth

But there's a little emotion attached to it these days because people are saying wait a minute we're getting really close

I believe thus and so and the other guy says no no no no no no no no, no, no. You can't believe that.

And this is the nature of the discussion, which tells me that we're getting pretty close to the rapture of the church.

It sure seems, well, it's interesting that it's amazing to me that any Christian would be opposed to the rapture.

Oh, yeah.

And, you know, it's often under, you know, well, you know, they love the word, and of course,

you know, that's fine.

But the fact that the rapture is so loved and hated by many, that's probably, that's a good thing because you know what it does is it keeps it on the forefront of people's thoughts.

And so my wonder, you know, I wonder whether that's a good thing because you know what it does is it keeps it on the forefront of people's thoughts. And so my wonder, you know, my, I wonder whether that's, I wonder whether that's the Holy Spirit keeping the subject out in the front, whether it's by its detractors

or proponents. And, but nevertheless, I think even those that, even Christians that, that reject the idea of a preacher of rapture,

they'll still go up, you know, in the rapture.

And I'm sure they'll be okay with it at that moment.
