“Rapturitis is probably a uniquely American dementia. Since we can prove that the Church will not go through the Great Tribulation, some of us arrogantly assume that we will escape what most of the body of Christ, in most of the world, for most of the past two thousand years has had to endure. It’s called persecution. Don’t confuse tribulation in the general sense with that specific period of three and a half years, which is labeled the Great Tribulation. Just because we know we won’t go through the Great Tribulation, doesn’t mean that there might not be really dark days ahead for us here in America.”
