I'm in agreement that Obama is playing leader behind the scenes and believe he has been behind many red f**g events.
Firing the top brass that would not follow him in lockstep was a major hit to our military genius.
We share the same concerns for those having babies, "whoa to those who give suckle " isn't that far away. The struggles are something I would rather move my thoughts to something else it is so bothersome.
Rapture...doesn't matter if scriptural... OK that's bold but allow me to explain.
There are many saved Christians and with many doctrines are taught something that may make sense but is not scriptural.
The one thing that has to be right is salvation, worshiping the true God of creation, who is Jesus the Christ, was he sinless, did he rise on the 3rd day, do good works lead to Salvation...
Jesus, God in the flesh, sinless paid the price for our sins, died and on the 3rd day rose again and throughout scripture we are justified through faith, believing we are sinners in need of salvation by grace and not of works...(in a nutshell) My point is the Gospel of salvation is non negotiatable. With that said, Christians believe many things incorrectly but are still saved.
I have debated saved Christians that believe the time of Jacob's Troubles (The Great Tribulation) has already happened and some even become mean spirited.
Having studied the cults many decades ago (Mormon, Jehovah Witness's and many others) Christians believing the "Minor " doctrines inaccurate is not the same as false doctrines of the cults that twist salvation, the identity of God and apply works in order to have salvation (The doctrines of devils).
As for the Rapture, I do know God does not subject his Children to his wrath, which is very different than "Judgement " . Enoch was raptured. I'm not challenging a debate with you, I do believe we are at the end of the end of the Church age and God will Preserve his Church from the Tribulation, a time of his "Wrath " upon the world.

First of all, Exodus 20:3 Thou shall have no other Gods before me. 4. Thou shalt not make unto thee any
graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that h**e me;Revelation 6:
3. When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come and see."
4. Another horse, fiery red, went out.
And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should k**l one another and there was given to him a great sword. (Matt. 24:6,7)
Revelation 7:
2. Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea,
3. saying, "Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads."
4.
And I heard the number of those, who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed:(verses 5, 6, 7, and 8 describes the children of Israel as twelve thousand from each tribe: Judah, Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtall, Manasseh, Simeon, Levi, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph, and Benjamin.)
9. After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all the nations (aka gentiles), tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne...
Matt. 24

"Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and k**l you, and you will be h**ed by all nations for My name's sake."I Thessalonians 2:14-16
". . . of the Jews: Who both k**led the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sin alway: For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost."
