Jesus DID reveal to Paul a ‘new coming’...It was a mystery up til the time of Paul...
1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
>>There’s a trump sounded after the tribulation, Matt. 24:29-31, surely the last trump wouldn’t you say? You have Paul adding to Jesus’s words with a pretrib last trump. Nothing is said in the 1 Cor. passages you cited about the last trump taking place before the tribulation, you read that into the passage. It’s the same last trump as Jesus’.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
That's because God didn't write the bible like a dime store novel...You will rarely find the answer to a thing in a single verse...And often not even in a single chapter, or even book...
Why conflate the two??? You can't conflate the 2 if you look beyond the words trumps or trumpet...
In the Rapture Jesus collects CHRISTIANS ONLY from the earth...They go to a wedding...There is no scripture indicating a Wedding takes place after the Tribulation...
