Matthew 25:13 We are encouraged to watch. Not to obsess or prioritise it over our Christ-given obligations. I'm sure you as an individual don't do either of those things
@JUNE2019 - I'm talking about the movement.
I do agree with you. I lived almost my whole life without being bothered by the end times stuff. What matters is our behavior vis-a-vis others and nature. Nevertheless, I have been pushed, through increasing weird experiences, to study the Bible prophecies, and even predictions from other cultures and peoples. As I was clearly virgin of past religious education, I found keys rather obvious. So, I was not
'prepared' for preconceived answers. And this is where I discovered that having faith in Jesus Christ was absolutely not a problem of owning a Christian membership card (I would say, on the contrary), but being prepared to accept what most of the Christians, and even most of the world, were not ready to admit easily, like it was the case 2,000 years ago. That is even why the gate is so narrow. Many are called, few will be saved. Why?
Because having faith in Christ supposes to accept WHO he will be according to his own prophetic words (Prince George), and HOW the chosen ones will be taken (multidimensional benevolent ET spaceships). Being chosen is not enough. One has to choose to follow Him as per his way (means of transport). THAT is called faith.
One can be a very good person and, however, not be saved because FAITH is the key at the very last moment. That's why Christ insisted SO MUCH on faith. It's not only hope to wait for him, it's TRUST in his words. This is the most important Christ-given obligation...to be saved. It's one thing to go through the hardships of the Tribulations. It's another to accept God's ways. Anyone, especially the religious people, being convinced that all the aliens are demons, even after years of prayers and good behaviors, will be left behind...because of one's own choice NOT to have faith.
The thing is that God's Plan put the war in heaven, to cleanse the heaven from the malevolent aliens' presence (they are hurled down to earth at that time) and to then make the rapture possible, before the said rapture of the great multitude. There is a Plan because there are modalities. The trumpet call is a clear telepathic message
(no one knows the day or the hour) to go to a specific location (hence several places) known only by those called people, places where the elect are gathered (to board a ship). If one doesn't know the calendar, one will doubt those messages to board a benevolent ship.
So, to sum up, prophecies were given to keep watch on the calendar of events and characters as per Christ's prophetic words (last Christ's words) coming after the Gospels, once accurately informed (unlike in the Apostles' testimonies). That is why understanding is better than knowing the end times Bible prophecy.
