And then they'll all turn right around and come to earth with Christ as it states will happen? That makes no sense. Up in the rapture and right back down to earth. The scripture says we will be caught up to Christ forever. No going straight back to earth. 1 Thessalonians 4:17 ESV: Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. I've studied this for 44 years. I agree that there still are legitimate differences of thought on the rapture. Your take on it isn't one of the serious opinions studied although I've heard it before. Read and look up the Old/New Testament Scriptures cross-referenced in the book of Revelation. The Bible states that studying this book brings a blessing on the reader. So much to learn still for both of us!
