There is no literal rapture - the term is NOT even in the Bible. The British minister who coined it first said it was going to happen in 1830, then 1850, etc. The Revelation 20:4 states that the returned "Christ rules for a 1,000 years". I Thess 4:17 is a prophecy of the Christ returning in a time of airplanes.
Only Evangelicals believe in the rapture - none of the other Christians denominations do. Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Lutherans, Anglican/Episcopal, Presbyterians, Methodists, United Church of Christ, Mormons, Unity - none of these believe in the rapture.
We are experiencing The Apocalypse/Revelation (not the 'end of the world') when the Christ returns, produces the "book/scroll sealed with 7 seals" (Rev 5:1) and then 'the shit hits the fan'! "Plague, locusts, economic collapse, civil unrest, etc."
