Hi Gino, I am also very interested in other peoples view points
(re:partial rapture). Except, I would have to disagree with your point
that those who do not believe that they are worthy "are not prideful."
I believe it is very prideful to believe that we are not worthy. God
says we are worthy (because of HIS work in us and because of Jesus
death) and He loves us. When we believe that we are not worthy of that
unconditional love and His gifts to us, we are saying that our opinion
of ourselves is more important that that of God's opinion. It is very
prideful to say that we are not worthy,  Just my 2 cents. Back when I
was a teen and I was struggling with my self esteem, I had a friend
point out the obvious, my low opinion of myself was very prideful
because God created me in His own image. Was I so prideful that my
opinion of myself was more important than His? This always stuck with
me. Just a thought! We would never be worthy but because of Jesus
sacrifice, He has made us worthy.
