We know it..and wait for it knowing that it could be any day now.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

There is a gathering together of the saints to meet the Lord Jesus Christ in the air but it's on the last day. There is no rapture as it is taught when millions disappear and there is 7 years of tribulation for those who are left on the earth and they have a second chance to repent. The bible says that we must through much tribulation enter the kingdom of God, the tribulation we're experiencing now could get worse but for us it's not going to continue when he returns. When he does, eternity in the lake of fire, after the judgment, awaits all those who having heard the gospel, rejected it.
edit:
The bible says that "Immediately after the tribulation of those days" Jesus returns.

The rapture will happen after the tribulation but before God's wrath. Check out the first link below.

Yes, and the follow up to this is the Great Tribulation
In Jesus Name

Nah, the gods aren't that interested in Rapture or the Devil.

Well, while I don't necessarily agree with your characterizations in your question I do believe in the rapture.

No. But if there is, I hope it's on Pay-per-View.
