Tongues interpretation - Rapture/Return

I have a sincere question.

A few months ago, there was an interpretation of tongues where I attend, that was along the lines of "I will be coming quickly to take out a people that has made themselves ready", or something of that nature.

My question is this: Are there others that have heard a similiar "tongues interpretation", and if so, how many years BACK have you heard/been hearing those interpretations? A long time, or just in the last few years, or months ?

(Not looking to debate eschatology at all, but just wanting to simply find out how many years this interpretation has been given, as an "interpretation of tongues"?

Literally all my life. Jesus said He was coming soon 2000 years ago. Soon is relevant in relation to eternity, I suppose.

I can remember these from at least the late 70's early 80's but then that's about as far back as I can remember.

Re: Tongues interpretation - Rapture/Return

This is a very difficult question. What is soon? Is 2000 years soon? Does that mean it could be another 2000 years, or does it just relate to the fact that any of us could called away individually at any moment?

Do Universalists believe in a rapture? If so, who goes up? Everybody?

Nathaniel Urshan said an angel told him the Lord would come back before he died.

And this, my friends, makes one question the source.
