All the dead are ressurected at the end of time, and the saved given glorified bodies then, when He returns for the final judgment of all man.
Thats what is going to happen when He returns. Everyone who has ever existed will be raised from the dead, their bodies returned to them. The damned are judged so damned publicly, all their sins exposed for all to see and they will then be sent to eternal separation from God. The saved, also raised, will be not only given a body back, but will have a glorified body (like Christs after His Ressurection) and their sins recounted too. But for them, unlike the damned, their list of sins will not be source of eternal shame and torture but a source of glory for them and God because it will also be revealed how they were forgiven of all their sin (because they sought and recieved such forgiveness where the damned did not)
This has been Christian understanding and tradition concerning eschatology for almost 2,000 years. As was pointed out upthread, the idea of a rapture, as in a half return of Jesus, wasnt discovered until the 19th century.
I dont know about anyone else but Im sticking with a teaching more closely associated with the time of the apostles and their students than some 19th century preachers imagination.
At least go educate yourself ... you people who continue to claim this just look silly now ...
Go spend some time up on pre-trib.org and at least realize you are ignorantly (i'm assuming) propagating a myth.
Would Jesus' teachings count?
"In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." - John 14:2-3 [emphasis added]
If Jesus is coming back to stay, then we are going to be lonely without Him at his Father's house.
