Kawaii answered your question fully and exhaustively in the first part of 5,127. It is a lengthy answer, but the question you posed deserved one.

The Second Coming of Christ will signal a new life in glory for the "blessed of the Father", who will "possess the kingdom prepared for them from the foundation of the world". The living and the dead will come together and will be with Christ forever. That is the meaning of 1 Thessalonians 4.

The rapture theology takes off from that scriptural fact in some bizarre direction, as the article Kawaii posted explains.

Kawaii posted an article. I asked Kawaii what he/she believed. I did not ask what a specific newsletter said. If you asked me a question, what do you think the price of gas will be tomorrow and I go back and find an article written by someone else that has that person's prediction of what the price of gas is going to be - have I really answered your question. Kawaii answered the question when he said he believes whatever his church teaches. This is a dangerous thing in and of itself, but at least it was an answer.
