MTD, are you posting this to clarify any misnomers that are taught?

I have been taught that the "rapture" will take place before that man of sin is revealed.

I do not believe everything I have been taught...if I did then purgatory would be our next stop.

So...please expound on your thoughts on this scripture. I am willing to learn more and at the very least...another point of view.
