"""I am in agreement with that except I think the resurrection and rapture occur in the twinkling of an eye."""
Not what it says.
Go back and re read it.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
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.
It says we are CHANGED in a moment (twinkling of an eye)

Do realize this my friend.
Your doctrine has the dead in Christ as well as the believers NEVER EVER SEEING HEAVEN.
So basically voiding Jesus words at the last supper and rev 19s words that the bride and wife are there.
And rev 14 ??????
How in the world do you TRANSPOSE that gathering into Horses???? Billions of horses????
See that's the problem with false doctrine.
Your inventors ( church fathers) saw end times through a clouded lense of a destroyed israel.
It was corrupted and the a mil doctrine emerged.
Postrib rapture is so poorly derived and thought out.
At this late hour there is no time for such impossible rabbit trails.
You have NO RED FLAGS at your ignoring verses?????

Acts 1
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Pretrib rapture.
Jesus returns as depicted in mat 25.
The most vivid depiction of the pretrib rapture.
No horses on any rapture verses.
CONTEXT.
WITHOUT IT YOU ARE DOOMED TO ERROR.

SC = Second Coming....
The premillennial pre-tib rapture view is unquestionably correct. Matches all of the relevant scriptures seamlessly. Any other view is pure chaos or highly imaginative.
My former pastor was amillennialist. The poor guy couldn't preach end time eschatology in any sensible manner. He didn't get it. At all.

Matthew 24:37-39
King James Version
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

What is the hang up on the verse about Noah? It is a warning? Making it clear that just like in the days of Noah the end is going to come and people will not be prepared and won't believe until they are destroyed. They will be going on with their lives and not knowing or believing that the end is near and then it will be sudden destruction.
As for Noah, he didn't get raptured away to heaven and wasn't on some pleasure cruise. He simply built the Ark through faith and rode out the storm and destruction on the Ark. Simply put he was saved by his faith.

Yes exactly.
It is multifaceted.
Many truths in one example.
The thing is it is framed " before the flood" then almost in the same breath "watch/ be ready"....and " one taken- left".
Then almost in the same breath the vivid Virgin rapture parable.
Noah all by itself is pre...mid...post...flood.
Jesus said " before the flood" and Is using both noah and lot as PREJUDGEMENT dynamics.
"....They were in life as usual...normal free world non wartime life and Jesus comes."
But beyond that Noah was taken over a mile into heaven via the trib/flood and CAME BACK To earth ,a long time later ,AFTER THE FLOOD.
And remember "ark" is a type of heaven.
And when Jesus returns with his saints he does establish his kingdom.
Vivid pretrib rapture.
Postribs Need both lot and Noah delivered AFTER the flood/ fire.
