thanks for the link, but the very passage he uses to prove the rapture actually disproves it.
“But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord,4 that lwe who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. (HERE IS THE PROOF THERE IS NO RAPTURE) And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 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. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.” \9 THIS IS WHEN THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE UP THEN THOSE WHO ARE LEFT. THIS IS THE LAST TRUMPET, AM I CORRECT
The Rapture is an event in which God will give new bodies to dead Christians and then with the alive in Christ His Spirit will make a resonance which ONLY souls with the Holy Spirit seal can receive, to transform them all in a moment in the twinkling of an eye to be gathered in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and then go with Him to His Father’s House. This event will prove to so many Catholics and other religions familiar with scriptures that they have been in error and will possibly turn their hearts to the Truth of Christ just before a great blindness settles over all humanity, so dark that 144,000 Jews seal from twelve tribes of Israel will be evangelizing during the seven years that follow.
You need to be careful on this, and check the context. This trump in 1Cor. 15:52 is the trumpet announcing the end ofthe "Church Age," the gathering of the persons, dead and alive, at the time of their removal from earth, the reinvestment of the saints into their new bodies, and the beginning of their eternal walk with their King in these new bodies.
The seven years of tribulation are to follow this, a period in which the Holy Spirit will be absent from the earth.
This trump, this shofar, is only the last of the Church age, not the last one ever. Consider the Army post, in which the call of "Taps" is sounded. That is the last trumpet of that day of activities to which the soldiers have been summoned by various trumpet calls.
In God's plan, this is not absolutely the last call of all, for there will be several described in the book of the Revelation, but it is the last one summoning Saints for the end of their suffering, sorrow, and physical death, and to receive their new bodies in their new life with Christ.
Christ-rejectors will have yet more trumpet warnings of God's judgment and wrath to endure.
