There is a trump when the dead are raised.
It mentions His voice is like a trumpet also.
In other words the dead folks already gone to be with Him will come back with Him when He returns.
At this Rapture the trump of God sounds.
The departed bodies of the saints are raised up first then the believers which are alive.
The verse you cited said trump of God, not last trump!
Then is the Rapture.
You made that up. It does not say we float around up in the sky and do not go to be where He is! In fact it is DURING the tribulation that the great marriage supper of the Lamb in heaven occurs. What, you thought He left millions of raised up believers floating down near the earth so they would not be there at the wedding supper?!
Of course, they are. The harvest of that day will be great.
I did not make stuff up -just did not post associated scripture. As this is your thread, I will try to get back to it when I can.
It will not likely change anything, but may help if you find things did not work out as you thought.
Just this for now..... Here we clearly see the wedding supper of the Lamb associated with things that happen on Earth... the armies which were in heaven following him here for that event. The beast could not make war with him if he were not here.
9And he saith unto me, Write,
Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See
thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him
was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12His eyes
were as a flame of fire, and on his head
were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13And he
was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.17And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; 18That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.19And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21And
the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
This is part of the same event....
Zech 14
1Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
2For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
3Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives,
