Your article was very well thought out and presented!  I have answers for you that I have gathered due to my intense interest in end times.

 

<<I really, really, hope that the doctrine of a partial catching away, is not correct, because I'm greatly concerned that I'm certainly not a good enough Christian to merit it!>>

 

Unfortunately, it is taught in the story of the 10 virgins of which five are left behind for having run out of oil (oil represents God's word in us; the fire of the Holy Spirit; our zeal/love for the Lord, the bridegroom).  Apparently, the 5 virgins got distracted by the world and lost their intense love for the bridegroom.

 

<<If the blessed hope happens real soon, and if some of us aren't taken at that time, how will we know why?>>    

 

Jesus gave a word about that to a man named Maurice Sklar, January 10, 2010.  Following is an excerpt:

 

“Not all of My people will be ready when I sound the shofar of My appearing in the air.  In fact, half of those that profess belief in Me will be left behind, as it is written in the parable of the wise and foolish virgins.  I am coming for those that are prepared and awaiting My return.  But, I am not leaving the Earth without a strong witness of my grace, My presence and My glory.  In fact, I’ve allowed some to choose whether they want to stay to be a part of the greatest revival and harvest of all of history or to go on before to My Wedding Supper.  But, it is not My best for them.  I do not want to see them suffer.  It will be the worst time in all of history..."

 

"Worst time in all of history" says a lot!  The worst was Noah's day when God's judgment  resulted in the world's destruction with only eight people left alive.  From all I've been able to pick up on this subject it appears we need to keep a short account with God, forgive everyone who has done you wrong, read our Bibles daily and spend time with Jesus in worship daily because He desires a personal relationship with Him since He is the Bridegroom.  Some people can worship without music, but most of us find it really helps.  He's coming for a bride -- not just church attendees.  He's looking for those who truly love Him.  Surely, that's what you would want if you were about to marry someone.  ;)   

 

"I have already separated My Bride from the Laodicean church.  I have warned the church over and over.  Time is running out fast!  Get into the ark of safety!  Flee from the love of sin, the flesh and the world before it is too late!  Do not look back upon Sodom like Lot’s wife.  Flee the city of destruction!  Flee from the wrath to come!  Come into My secret place!  The doors are closing soon.  Embrace the truth of My promise that I have not appointed you for wrath, but to obtain My salvation and to be a part of My Bride.  Blessed and holy are those that obtain this first resurrection.  Amen.  I am coming for those who love Me; My soon Appearing in the sky; My Wedding and My Glorious Supper; I am coming for those that love Heaven and the coming Kingdom more than they love the passing pleasures of sin upon this present Earth.  DO NOT BE DECEIVED BY FALSE TEACHING THAT ROBS YOU OF THE BLESSED HOPE OF MY COMING!  I am the Great King and Bridegroom!  Keep your lamps burning brightly!  The midnight hour is here!”
