>> “what you call “the rapture” is the second coming of Jesus Christ at the end of the world” <<

Negatory!

The rapture is the first resurrection, which takes place, as Yeshua told us in Matthew 24, at the end of the 3.5 year tribulation, at the last trump, ten days before the beginning of the millennial reign of King Yeshua, and his elect (the church in a loose way).

Matthew 24 is very clear and is probably the best chapter in the Bible to disprove this whole pre-trib rapture nonsense.

v21 speaks of great tribulation and the Church is still on earth.
v29 IMMEDIATELY after the tribulation, Jesus appears at His second coming and it is the end of the world.

he comes with the OT and NT saints from heaven and the believers still alive on that day, are caught up to meet with them in the air v 40, 41 , 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, 2 Peter 3:10.

please notice that none of those verses speak about a 1,000 year literal kingdom reign.

but they all speak about one coming of the Lord.

when Jesus comes again, that is it, it is Judgement Day.
