The one major comment i have is that this came to me by way of revelation of the Holy Spirit. I started following Jesus and surrendered to Him 4 years ago in December, going on 5 now. Since then i have been seeking Him on many issues that i have from living a life that was totally self absorbed, selfish and self centered. One amazing revelation is that the church isn't going to magically dissapear. I was raised being taught this. Many books and movies have been made pushing this idea. I believe this came out of watering down what the bible teaches in order to not have the seats empty and the offering plate end up the same way. If you read I Thessalonians 4:13-5:11 its a very clear picture of what Paul says the comong of The Lord is going to be like. I know a lot of whole hearted Jesus following christians that believe that the rapture is going to be out of nowhere and they are going to escape all trouble and persecution. Thats just not true. I don't know who the anti-christ is or who hes going to be but i do believe this whole rapture teaching and many others that scripture just simply does not teach is going to be the reason for many falling away in the end times because rather then going back to see what the bible teaches, many will say, "Well pastor so-and-so said it was going to be like this." and go by that rather then going back and seeing what the bible says. When we stand before The Judgement Seat Of Christ He will say, "What did I say?"
