“How shall I harm thee? Let me count the ways.” Apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning for changing the words of her classic ode so dramatically.
The reality is that this is the sonnet sung by the evil Left on a daily basis.

I’m not sure what it is about many post-Tribulation Rapture believers, but there is some number of them that are just plain mean. They are so invested in their post-Trib doctrine that true believers in the church today must go through the Tribulation in order to be real believers, that they unpleasantly attack those who don’t agree.
This is a never-ending source of fascination for me: How is it that those who adhere to a post-Tribulation Rapture perspective can actually look forward to those horrific seven years of God’s wrath and judgment? And they do. There is almost a glee about many of them as they consider these coming difficult times. In their thinking: Oh, they’ll be shielded by God and also be performing astounding miracles. I think some see themselves symbolically as the Two Witnesses. They’ll live in protected, sustainable communities apart from all those on the receiving end of God’s punishment. It’ll be a glorious time, unlike any other ever experienced on the earth for them. Well, they’ve got that last part right.
I’m going to apologize up front for this Commentary because its premise is so disgusting – yet, if we don’t examine these issues, we remain willfully ignorant or hopelessly naïve, our heads stuck in the sand, and we as Christians then cannot pray against the evil.
We had to take an unexpected trip to Chicago. My brother broke his leg, and we went to check on how he was doing. In a normal situation a broken leg would be painful but not necessarily cause for visiting as we did. However, my brother is brain-damaged. – The purpose of this Commentary wasn’t really to discuss my brother but rather some of the observations we made in our brief travels.
If all the signs of the very end of this Church Age have converged and are in full swing right now at this very moment, how long can these indicators continue to remain teetering on the edge of complete fulfillment?
