What is The Rapture?
Imagine you are inside a burning building with no way of escape. Smoke and flames are encroaching. A firefighter breaks through a door, hands you an oxygen mask and carries you out to safety. This is a rapture.
Imagine you are Noah or one of his sons or daughters in law standing inside the completed ark. God closes and seals the door. The rains begin to fall in torrents and the flood waters rise. Every person on earth drowns except you and your family, who are safe inside the ark. This is a rapture.
Imagine you are an Israelite fleeing Egypt and find yourself trapped between the Red Sea on one side and Pharaoh's vengeful army on the other. Between the proverbial rock and a hard place. The hand of Almighty God parts and holds back the waters and forms a dry path to cross to the other side. The pursuing army follows behind, but the waters collapse and drown them. You emerge safe on the other side. This is a rapture!
Now imagine darkness falls over the planet as events march relentlessly toward a satanic one-world government and one-world religion led by the antichrist, a.k.a. the beast, and the false prophet, both of whom are controlled by Lucifer himself. The devil knows his time is short and will hold nothing back as he pours out deception, hatred, suffering and death on humanity. Economic collapse, food shortages and plagues accelerate. Hordes of Islamic jihadists are on a rampage of murder and rape. As World War III begins and all hell breaks loose, Jesus Christ appears in the sky with his angelic host. Everyone who belongs to Jesus is caught up in the air with him, given a new immortal body and spirited away to a wedding feast the likes of which you cannot imagine. Because it is so good! This is THE RAPTURE!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you watch this one-hour video by Jonathan Kleck about the rapture and end times. It will blow your mind and quicken your soul. You will see truths in Scripture that have been sealed up since the time of Daniel until now:

The Rapture is a deliverance, a rescue before the fire. We now live in the time period where this event is imminent. I don't know if it is today or three, six or 12 months from now, but it is imminent. Jesus is coming quickly! If you are not already born again in the Spirit, you need to repent and believe. "And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Acts 2:21)
Because you don't want to be on earth after the Rapture. The wrath of God will be poured out. It will be the culmination of Satan's mayhem on earth. It will be three and half years of cataclysm unlike anything that has ever happened in history or ever will. Jesus said if those days were not cut short, no one would be left alive.
There's only one way out, and that's to believe in Jesus right now.
By the way, the Rapture does not deliver you out of all tribulation, but the worst of it. We have entered the time period when the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are mounting and beginning to ride, as detailed in Revelation 6 (more on this later). People living in the Middle East, Ukraine or Nigeria are already experiencing conquest (white horse), war and violence (red horse), privation & famine (black horse), and death (pale horse). Christians by the tens of thousands are being slaughtered and enslaved. Please pray for them and donate to good charities that help them if you can, like Operation Do Something and Rescue Christians. But I want to be clear: The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are coming to America soon. You need to be ready to deal with war, death, plagues, food shortages and privation, while at the same time holding out the hope that Jesus is coming imminently.

Although there is a mid tribulation rapture (Revelation 7:9) there is a pre tribulation one for the faithful church (Philadelphia) and the church are shown in Heaven in Revelation 4-5 before seals are opened. Seals have not been opened yet of course.

The birth pangs have already begun, my friend, and seals are already opening.
"For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places." - Matthew 24:7
Nation = tribe, ethnic group. Civil conflict has started and will intensify.
COVID is a global pestilence.
