How can you believe the whole church is raptured before the Tribulation when not all Christians have

(a) "kept the word of my patience" (Rev. 3.10),

(b) "watch at all times, praying" (Luke 21.36), and

(c) "watch therefore" (Matt. 24.42)

to

(i) "keep thee from the hour of trial, that hour which is to come upon the whole world" (Rev. 3.10),

(ii) "that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass", and

(iii) "stand before the Son of man" (Luke 21.36) and "stood before the throne, and before the Lamb" (Rev. 7.9),

"for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come" (Matt. 24.42)?
