we are not waiting to go to heaven anymore. Rather, we are already in heaven.
Before Jesus crucifixion he says, seek ye first God's kingdom. But after his resurrection, he brought down his kingdom on earth.
so God's kingdom is not at hand anymore, God's kingdom is now here with us. God's kingdom is Jesus Christ inside us which is the holy spirit.
so, no end time
no rapture.
God's kingdom on earth has no end.
If you understand this truth, then religion is nothing to bother about again.
just live your life and be free

you are on point Op
Matthew 25:31.says When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
he made this statement before he was crucified.
But after his resurrection he came with his glory, the resurrection itself is his glory, the gate of heaven.
he asked his disciples to strive to enter the gate at this point, that is, they should strive to hold on their believe in him against all odds until the point of his resurrection which is the point or gate of heaven.

religion was worth giving attention to during old testament days, before Jesus was crucified?

exactly,
that's why Jesus says the least person in Christianity is greater than old testament prophets
Matthew 11:11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women (prophets of Judaism, example, Elijah ) there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven (Christianity ) is greater than he.

what do you think?
when you hear christians singing God of Elijah send down fire, is that not a miss priority?
Elijah never saw Christianity even though he prayed and wishes to see Christianity.
But here we are enjoying the Christianity.
Elijah wishes to be like us, we are crying,we want Elijah power of signs and wonders(esp pastors ), We are just being foolish

But. John the Baptist preaches Jesus, he was the for runner of Jesus?

Just look at it this way
you know, Judaism is the religion of it's own (old testament )
Christianity is another religion of it own (new testament )
Now, between Judaism and Christianity was another religion which john the baptism founded, that religion is not Christianity.
infact, the adherents of that religion which were disciples of John the Baptist were baptised into Christianity by Paul, thereby terminating that religion.
Today, there is no religion called the religion of John the Baptist .
Acts 19:3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. (adherents of John's religion )
Act 19:5 When they (adherents of John's religion) heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.(baptised into Christianity which is God's kingdom or heaven ).
so, basically. baptism is all about change of religion and not just immension in water

ehe!
it's obvious no church in Nigeria has understand these things., they are all making noise
