Dear Bruce and Doves,
The Bridegroom is not coming back to snatch away the
the entire "Church" (the "woman" of Revelation 12) unto Himself.
No; rather, He is coming back for the "Bride" (the
'manchild" of Revelation 12). I am fully persuaded that only
144,000 will 'make the cut'. So, instead of presuming that everyone
in "the Church" will be the "called, chosen, and faithful" ones
who will be raptured, we must "pray that you might be
accounted worthy to escape" the Great Tribulation.
Love, Grace, and Peace,
