I suspect many are about to be "into that stuff" whether they wish to be or not. The past twenty years has been wading "into that stuff" and the past ten has been definitively "into that stuff". People simply would rather not wake up to it. Nobody likes a wake up call that says "Hey, it's the apocalypse time, enjoy your breakfast".
You are way off where I'm coming from. I have a long history in the end times stuff. Where I have landed is that I'm highly suspicious of novel theories on theology. One of the prime problems in the Protestant world is the ignorance of historical Christian doctrine. If a few people have a new theory on a passage they could be correct. But the burden of proof is on them not the orthodoxy of Christianity for the last 1900/years.
Speaking in generalities on purpose here because there are many novel theological positions on many things. Prophetic and apocalyptic texts are the most difficult for us to parse. I'm not saying you are wrong. I'm saying I choose to trust that God has it under control and that He will reveal to me truth and guide me and my family.
Does that make sense?

I wasn't talking about where you were coming from. I am talking about where things have been and are.

Sure. Of course, He might be doing that right now. That's the thing for most believers. They want to contain God in a box concerning how they expect the message to arrive. They often fail to see or understand that they have all ready been given notice and warning.
