Just like every other rapture wannabe who forsakes the imminency verses in the New Testament that prophesied The Second Return of Jesus Christ in 70 AD.

It happened as stated when the Roman armies surrounded Jerusalem and destroyed the Jewish polity once and for all killing all but the slaves that they chose to drag off into foreign lands.

I believe that this was the moment that all Christians, alive and dead were raptured into the New Jerusalem in Heaven. Although there are dozens of verses to attest to this futurists and Evangelicals never presch these verses, instead making the true understanding of the End Times a maze of contradictions and wishful thinking.

It does sell well, though and causes the unlearned babes in Christ to believe they have something to look forward to.

As they say, everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die!
