What time is the Rapture today?

I've been hearing for months that the world is going to end and that God's judgment is upon the world with this eclipse.
So my question is, I have a meeting at 1:30 this afternoon, Do I have enough time for the meeting before we are raptured?
Also I'm a postmillennialist for those of you who like Revelation humor.
Wrong bored sorry

No one knows when it will happen. Best policy is to live like it's going to happen every single day

It's not going to happen because the word rapture isn't found in the bible.
That's why I'm a postmillennialist. No where in scripture does Adonai tell us we will escape tribulations but that we are to endure them.
Hence the book of James when he says consider it joy my brothers when you face hardships because this produces steadfastness.
But I suppose there is evidence that supports a premillennialist viewpoint as well.

You’re arguing semantics and didn’t Jesus come to take that focus on pomp, circumstance, and restrictive law away to provide personal access to the father through the son?! We aren’t meant to know anything. His word does say the church will be called up. Putting a timeline on that is kinda hard. Based on most studies I have done, the church will be called home before the tribulation begins. I have several prophecy study bibles and it’s kind of my wheelhouse. However, I cannot say for sure because the Bible we have today omits many books thanks to Constantine wanting to return the church to power with the state (Roman conversion to Christianity. Those New Testament books (10-15 depending on who you ask) left out of the canon probably hold a better picture of the limited one we have today. Academics claim that Jesus took the power from the church and focused it on the personal relationship with Christ. He wanted to do away with the politics of church and it’s sway with the government. I lack citations because this isn’t an academic setting. I do have many “text books” from college electives that took a deep dive into this kinda thing. I must add a caveat; I know nothing and only my faith without seeing is all I really have.

I'm not arguing, just pointing out that the fear mongering of a rapture or Adonai's judgement is somehow coming with this eclipse.
If anything we're saying the same thing that our Redeemer, our perfect Boaz is going to restore us. I hope I'm wrong and it is in the form of a rapture and I won't have to be around to witness any of the tribulation.
But just as you said, this is kind of my thing and I went past electives and studied Theology and Eschatology at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.
I have several books for you if you are interested.
Whether you align with Pre, A, or Postmillennialism, the important thing is that you know the Messiah has come, was perfect, and finalized the Law by being the sacrificial passover lamb. And then most importantly he defeated death and walked with men showing his glory and grace!
Side note* Elohim preserved his word through our 1947 discovery of the dead sea scrolls. 1 Enoch, The Book of Jubilees, and the Maccabees should be included into canon, as these complete preserved copies were found in the Essene Community, which was a devout monastery that John the Baptist learned from. I encourage you to read them first.

The word rapture is the English word which comes from the Latin word raptura. Raptura means caught up or snatched away. The Greek word for this is Harpazo which is translated “caught up” or “caught away” the five times (out of thirteen) it appears in the Bible relating to rapture. The other eight times it is translated, “to. forcibly seize upon, ###### away, take to oneself or use force on someone.”
1 Thessalonians 4:17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

From a postmillennial perspective, 1 Thessalonians 4:17 is seen as describing the ultimate victory of Christ and his kingdom, where believers will be united with him in eternal fellowship after a period of spiritual triumph and peace on earth.

Please don’t be so sure of yourself, as if you have the answer.
Blessed are those who have not seen, yet believe.

I'm not about to look directly at it. Only get one set of eyes in life. Don't trust those cheap paper eclipse glasses either that were probably made in some third world country.

Some enterprising folks need to buy a bunch of human life like ballons and release them when the eclipse is complete.
