So who are the living believers that are transformed at the same time as the dead Christians at the 1st resurrection, if they have all been raptured 3.5 years before?
i.e. in mid-trib. They were not raptured 3.5 years before. They are raptured “in the middle”. Hence the name “mid-trib”. But it’s not really the middle. It is after 3.5 years of tribulation (I see it as “the wrath of satan”) but before the 3.5 years of “wrath of God”.
But again, it’s only my opinion. There is not “answer sheet” at the end of the bible for bible prophesy.
“You are applying pre-trib and mid-trib concepts in a mishmash.”
No, I don’t believe in either. I am challenging you to reconcile your doctrine with what the Bible actually says.
“i.e. in mid-trib. They were not raptured 3.5 years before. They are raptured “in the middle”. Hence the name “mid-trib”. But it’s not really the middle. It is after 3.5 years of tribulation (I see it as “the wrath of satan”) but before the 3.5 years of “wrath of God”.”
Yes, that may be your opinion, but the Bible says that the living and dead believers are all transformed at the same time, when Christ returns, and Revelation tells us Christ returns at the end of the tribulation. So, if the “rapture” happens midway through the tribulation, who are these living believers that the Bible tells us are transformed at the first resurrection when Christ returns?
