Here is the perfect response. I've spent 28 years in different churches, listening to different speakers, reading different ideas. Very few actually agree to the letter on what will happen, and everyone has some kind of scriptural back up for their stance. I finally decided I would cut through the garbage, and get on my own in scripture and find my own answer. God has given me peace with that, and with the answer I believe I found. Search scriptures, pray, ask God.
