Hi, Christy --The only reason I can see is that God has chosen some of us to be delivered as the Bride, and He has sovereignly chosen others to be "under the altar." I strongly suspect that those left behind will "come alive" in Christ during the first half of the tribulation, will do many mighty works in His name, and will be given grace to endure.I've noticed the same thing. Some folks that you would really think would "get it" just don't. Another great mystery that will soon be explained.SteveIn your search for a new church, the following may be of interest:Why I No Longer Attend Church — Most of the activities and trappings of modern American Christianity were unheard of by the early church, and the American 'go to church on Sunday' style of Christianity is a failure.
