OP
It's easy to solve the "second coming" question. When Jesus comes back ask him if he's been here before.

Spread 144,000 people over the Christian world and then factor in 2000+ years.

verily I say to you. There are those among us today that will live to see my return.
Where are these 2,000 year olds?

Was Jesus referring to reincarnation? It is timeless belief.

Since only 144,000 can go there, if there is still room in Heaven the standards are a lot higher than just singing in the right church choir. If Heaven is taking in new people, then there is turn over going on in Heaven. That has to be stressful when you have been in Heaven for a thousand years and everyone is getting quite when you walk in.
So rapture could have happened and the only thing the rapture expecting folk will notice is that their maid didn't show up.
