Hello Miknik5,
Not sure about what you are trying to say here, but the One who is restraining and who is taken out of the way, is referring to the Holy Spirit, not Jesus. The Holy Spirit who indwells all believers and who is currently restraining the full force of sin and that man of sin from being revealed, will at some pointe be taken out of the way and those whom He indwells will be removed with Him.
Since when is the HOLY SPIRIT separate from
THE FATHER and THE SON?
This is why when JESUS prepares HIS disciples of THE PROMISE in His upper room discourse (John 13 through 17) that HE say. I will not leave you as orphans. I will come to you and lo I am with you even to the end of ages
whrn THE HOLY SPIRIT is taken out of the way and JESUS is detained “22 days”, this is the time when HE (temporarily) hides HIS face from Jacobs troubles
This is no different than when the “HEDGE” was (temporarily) removes in the account of Job

further there is a first resurrection and a second resurrection. Just as revelation 20 claims that the rest of the dead will not rise until after the 1000 year reign and who is reigning with HIM?
Just fyi, the resurrection and catching away of the church, dead and living, mentioned in 1 Thes.4:13-18 is not the same resurrection that takes place in Rev.20:4-6. The two witnesses will also be resurrected in the middle of the seven years. These are all phases of the first resurrection. The male child is also going to be caught up to God's throne in the middle of the seven years.
Those above whom you are referring to are the great tribulation saints who will be killed because they will have kept their testimony of Jesus and the word of God and will not have worshiped the beast, his image nor received his mark. This group is not the church.
