What time zone is it taking place in? As a result of the entire thing in regards to the rapture that I used to be taught was that no man is aware of the date or the hour…

“There are 24 time zones on Earth, 38 when you embrace those which have half-hour instances. No man is aware of the way you all know.”

What does it say about it in spiritual texts?

Individuals on r/Christianity have identified the Biblical inaccuracies and historic failures to do with earlier predictions in many years previous, even calling individuals who declare to know the date of Judgment Day as a ‘false prophet’.

One Redditor even recalled texts from the Bible proving that the top isn’t imminent, writing of the Rapture: “Matthew 24:36 – ‘However of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, however my Father solely.’

The person additional emphasised: “Preserve the Religion, Do not Rush God’s Plan, Give attention to Jesus Paul nailed it in 2 Timothy 4:7-8: ‘I’ve fought struggle, I’ve completed my course, I’ve saved the religion: Henceforth there’s laid up for me a crown of righteousness.’ God’s plan rolls out completely (Galatians 4:4).”

They concluded: “We won’t velocity it up with predictions – simply occupy until He comes (Luke 19:13). Preserve your eyes on Jesus, the writer and finisher of our religion (Hebrews 12:2). Reside holy, watch expectantly, however do not pin hopes on a date.”

Perhaps we should not be so anxious in any case. If in any respect.
