I've always felt the same way about the "rapture," teachings OP.

Not only is it not biblical but there's a humility involved that keeps a person from ever thinking that he or she is better than anyone because conviction shows us just how flawed we ourselves are.

Like Isaiah said:

Isaiah 6:5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

Nothing is hidden from God, and when we are in His presence our hearts are exposed.
