No.
The TEXT states (repeatedly), "... what the Spirit saith unto the church
ES" (which is
not the same thing as saying "to the Church
WHICH IS HIS BODY").
"...the church
ES" are made up of both those who are actually saved believers, AND of those who come in His name but who are not actually vitally connected with Christ (i.e. are not actually saved).
It is ONLY the ones (in the text) who are said to be "[to him that]
OVERCOMETH" (7x in these 2 chpts) who are the "SAVED" persons [see also 1Jn5:4 "overcometh"]
I notice (and may the readers take note) how
you deliberately LEFT OUT the following verse (which shows what I'm saying is the case):
Rev2:11 -
"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the church
es;
He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death."
...again,
7x "he that
OVERCOMETH"/"to him that
OVERCOMETH" (refers to those who are the "SAVED" amongst "the church
ES"... NOT referring to those who are
more "worthy" Christians".
NO.)
Again, "our Rapture" is NOT a "REWARD" for
MORE-WORTHY Christians; Instead, it is the birthright of EVERY MEMBER OF "the Church WHICH IS HIS BODY"... the "glorification" aspect of our salvation, which all three aspects are a PACKAGE DEAL (justification, sanctification, glorification), a "package deal" we receive upon trusting in Christ and His finished work alone for salvation.
Again, in Revelation 2-3, these letters are "[what the Spirit saith] unto the church
ES" (which is NOT identical to saying, "[what the Spirit saith] unto the Church WHICH IS HIS BODY"--which indeed is made up of ONLY believers... not so "the church
ES," see [only "he that OVERCOMETH" is the "SAVED" amongst "the church
ES"--study again Rev2:11, quoted above, as one evidence of this fact)
FIVE of the virgins (the "foolish") are NOT SAVED; These "10 Virgins" are NOT whom He is coming
"TO MARRY" (nor even the "
FIVE [wise] Virgin
S")... These are NOT "the Church
WHICH IS HIS BODY [singular]" (<--ALL those having come to faith "in this present age [singular]"); rather, they pertain to "the wedding
FEAST / SUPPER" (aka "the promised and prophesied
EARTHLY Millennial Kingdom" and who [of them] will ENTER that MK age, commencing upon His
"RETURN" to the earth...
NOT "our Rapture [
IN THE AIR]")
In these passages, the one "taken" is taken away IN JUDGMENT (
just as in Noah's day); and the one "left" is left to enter the earthly MK age in mortal bodies, capable of reproducing/bearing children (
just as in Noah's day);
Compare Daniel 2:35c and Gen9:1 "[actively] FILL [/FILLED] the [whole] earth"
to that of Matt24:37-51 (
and its parallel in Luke 12:36-37,38,40,42-44,45-48 "when he will
RETURN FROM the wedding" (i.e. as an
ALREADY-WED Bridegroom!)
THEN the meal [G347; and its occurrences elsewhere, like as found
in Matt8:11 and its parallel, speaking of the
EARTHLY MK age:
re: G347 - "
Matthew 8:11 —
in the last two passages used figuratively of participation in future blessedness in the Messiah's kingdom." -

Perhaps it's *you* that needs all that (what I've pointed out) to be "changed"... to fit your "only WORTHY Christians are RAPTURED" narrative.
Scripture does NOT indicate this.
Only by your wading neck-deep into Covenant Theology, as you do, can you come up with these blurred-together recipes, turning things into one big mish-mash of mush.
I do realize the
"rewards" will differ (per 2Cor5:10 and 1Cor3:12-15); but again, "
WE shall
ALL be changed
IN A MOMENT, in the twinkling of an eye" refers to what will occur at the time of
"our Rapture" (which "RAPTURE" pertains
SOLELY TO "the Church
WHICH IS HIS BODY"... not to all OTHER saints of all
OTHER time periods;
WE will be "SNATCHED / CAUGHT UP"
as "ONE BODY" at ONE singular point in time, for the PURPOSE [
for one] of the
"UNIONed-with Him" thing, i.e. pertaining to the "MARRIAGE" itself [not "the wedding
FEAST / SUPPER" which is the
EARTHLY MK age, commencing upon His
"RETURN" to the earth; Rev19:
7 DISTINCT FROM Rev19:
9, which
v.9 ONLY states that the "
INVITING/INVITATION" [
TO the SUPPER (aka
earthly MK age)]
has been completed[!]... not that the
SUPPER has taken place yet--only the "MARRIAGE" itself
will have been [UP IN Heaven], by that point ["the marriage
came... the bride
prepared" ("righteousness of saints" ...
see also 1Cor1:30-31 "he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord," and
Rom7:4, and
Phil1:11 "having been filled with the fruit of righteousness
which is BY MEANS OF JESUS CHRIST, unto the glory and praise of God." (as part of Paul's prayer)]);
...but again, "our Rapture" is NOT one of the "REWARDS"... but our birthright... part of the package deal that comes with having trusted Christ and His finished work alone, for salvation (and pertaining
SOLELY TO "the Church
WHICH IS HIS BODY" [not all in "the church
ES"--among which many are not actually SAVED PERSONS / not vitally connected with CHRIST--huge difference!!])
