The Bible records 3 heavens. The 1st heaven is where the birds fly.
Some are arguing over words as a means to divert away from the real issue they wish to avoid.
For, whatever a particular heaven it will be?
The Rapture still remains reality.
Some try to drag us away from the real issue by distracting us with such arguments over words.
We do know this.
It says.... we will be "caught up in the clouds" which today we call the lower atmosphere.
And...
When it says that Satan is the prince of the air?
Ephesians 2:1-2
And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked
according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the
spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience.
The Rapture will be God and his Chosen believers penetrating into Satan's domain!
Fallen angels will be staring at us having our brand new resurrection bodies!!!
They will fear their defeat like never before!
Note: Kenneth Wuest is his Expanded Translation from the Greek, says that the word "air" refers to the lower atmosphere.
He translated it
that Satan will be the prince of the "lower atmosphere."
That means?
We are going to be instantly popping up into Satan's living room!
God be showing off His people in our all new powerful, and absolutely beautiful, resurrection bodies!!!!!
So? The Rapture holds more than one meaning.
For us? It is for our comforting.
But, for Satan and his angels?
It will be God is coming to earth with His powerful army to totally and absolutely defeat them!
For we will be indestructible and powerful. Higher than the angels!
Its real. Reality will not be stopped by false doctrine.
grace and peace....
