I would recommend Tom's thread a few years ago entitled God's M.O. Simply making the case for God's heart, character and past workings revealing God's heart of disclosure! A serious look at the office of prophet not to mention the efficacy and purpose of prophecy! Along with the scriptural examples already given! As well as the promise that with regards to the revealed mystery of the Rapture that we would not be taken unawares! Which presupposes a certain knowledge! In all, it makes this supposition an added confirmation and promise that we won't be left in the dark! Revealing the Lord's heart! All the types and shadows, veiled scriptures and patterns as well as God's previous interaction with men speak to God's nature of willing disclosure! Rather than my heart deal with the darkness and horrors of Tribulation ad infinitum, I rather choose to be a little more proactive and positive! At this point whether it be wrong or right, it is simply an exercise of simply considering a new thought! Just as when God asked satan to consider his servant Job! And if there be even the slightest possibility this be true, it would give the saints but one more reason to thank the Lord! Rather than get mired down by the plans of the enemy!!! TR Here's a verse you can petition the Lord about, TR. Amos 3:7 New King James Version 7 Surely the Lord God does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. Again, It is not my endeavor to facilitate a teaching, but rather this belief I have held for many years! The circumstantial evidence I speak of only confirms my belief! How wonderfully surprised to find that Tom my best friend of ten years also shared this belief! Apparently my search for others with this belief has been less than fruitful! TR Well, it is certainly possible that God will give us a forewarning. The Rapture is a teaching that is plain to see by most of us yet in reality it is actually not quite so obvious, yet we hold fast with all our might to this belief (the rapture) so perhaps you have been right all along. In days prior to the plandemic it was not something I needed to know or believe in (three day heads up) but the further down the road we go in the wrapping up of the Church Age while at the same time seeing the onset of the time of Jacob’s Trouble I am more inclined to entertain the possibility of your theory. It would sure be a comfort if it is so. As like many before me and having seen the Lord work tangibly in my life, I will live or die saying God is able! TR
