1 Corinthians 2:9!
"..... but just as it is written, 'Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, and WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, all that God has prepared for THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.' "
And make no mistake about it, the Rapture is now indeed approaching, and this verse tells us what lies on the other side of the Rapture! In 721 BC the Jewish people were a free people in their land, and then Assyria came down from the north and took them captive. The Jewish people would not be a free, independent people again until 1948 AD, 2669 years later! In 1948 when Israel became a state we entered what the Bible calls the "end times of the Church Age", a time period that would contain many amazing things including the upcoming Rapture, 7 year Tribulation Period, and then the Second Coming of Israel's long rejected Messiah, Who is Christ!

P.S. But for those left on earth after the Rapture, terror awaits them during the subsequent 7 year Tribulation Period! Just read the Book of Revelation!
P.P.S. How can one truly know the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? There is one huge condition! John 14:6 New Testament states, "Jesus (Israel's long rejected Messiah) said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER, BUT THROUGH ME.' " It is impossible to get to God the Father, Heaven, and eternal life without Israel's Messiah! Jew and gentile alike must know Him. There is no other way! In the Old Testament we find the proof of Who Israel's Messiah is------ Micah 5:2, Psalm 22:14-18, and all of Isaiah 53! These Scripture verses were there all along for the Jewish people!
P.P.P.S. Another thought. God's universe is enormous as the new James-Webb Telescope is showing us. Myriads of galaxies in vast incomprehensible distances! Our Milky Way galaxy alone is 100,000 light years in diameter with 1 billion stars in it! Light traveling at 186,000 miles per second takes 100,000 years to traverse the diameter of our galaxy! Let that sink in for a moment! Now look at the above verse of Scripture again------ "WHICH HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN". Humm. That means that what I have described about God's amazing universe is NOT what this Scripture is about! Could this Scripture be referring to something which is in another dimension not known to man? Possibly. Remember that we cannot see God's angels though they be all around us. They are in a different dimension which we cannot perceive!
PSALM 102:16 KING JAMES BIBLE STATES, "WHEN THE LORD SHALL BUILD UP ZION (Israel from 1948 onward), HE SHALL APPEAR IN HIS GLORY (the Rapture, and a tad more than 7 years later, the Second Coming)." The "parable of the fig tree" in the New Testament tells us that the "GENERATION" to see Israel's return as a nation will see all end time events come to pass! A 13 year old in 1948 (just old enough to remember Israel becoming a state) this year (2022) is now 87 years old, and IF the Rapture was this year, 94 years old at the Second Coming! Make no mistake about it, the hour is very late in these End Times!
