What say you @JohnR7
The resurrection and the rapture are two different events. At the end of the 1,000 year reign of Christ there is a New Heaven and a New Earth. Then we receive our new body that goes along with the new earth. We are told that Heaven is Spiritual. We have a Spiritual body but we leave our Physical body behind on the Earth. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. We return to the elements that we came from.

We rule and reign with Christ for 1,000 years but I do not know if that is literal or symbolic, physical or spiritual. We are told at the end of the tribulation period He returns to the Earth. His feet touch the ground and there will be a great earthquake take place. Today with plate tectonics we know exactly where this earthquake will take place at the mount of olives. Just as the Bible says we can see where the east and the west, north and the should are seperated. "On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half the mountain moving to the north and half to the south." (Zechariah 14:9)

Again i will ask the question:
In your believe of 'end times' at what point do you understand the resurrection to take place. ?

I do not know. I think that the rapture will take place sometime around the year 2029. Because I believe that Pentecost was in the year 29 ad so 2029 will be the end of the 2,000 year church age. Then we will enter into the Kingdom age. The Kingdoms of this world are becoming the Kingdoms of God. That is why there is so much political turmoil. We know that Jesus began His ministry in the year 26 ad when he attended a wedding and turned the water into wine. I expect something is going to take place in the year 2026 that will confirm the year 2029. Right now I am just going off of he information we get from NASA.

I will try one more time @JohnR7 I am not asking about a year or date . I am asking about the sequence of events...How do 'end times' events come together in your mind or believes ? In what order do you place events .

Some folks say resurrection and rapture happen almost at the same time . like a twinkling of an eye . Some say there is a 7 year gap between them... Some say a 7 year tribulation , some 3 1/2 years What are your thoughts on the order of 'end time' events

I believe there will be death present in the millennium because it says a sinner is cursed at a 100.
That means that the average age will be 100. We are already up to almost 80. After Noah's flood God put the limit at 120 years. We are given 70 & for reason of strength 80. Then there are scriptures where we can add years on our life to take us up to 120. Although a lot of people have trouble getting past 100.

The average is not even close to being 80 today. You are looking at it from a western perspective. The average life expectancy is in the 50s in many countries.

I believe in a pretrib rapture when Jesus will come FOR HIS church. The 7 year tribulation is a time when God will pour out His wrath upon the world. I don't think people will even notice that the true church is gone. On the first day they will set up a tabernacle on the temple mount and the sacrifices will begin. As they build the temple. That will take 3 1/2 years to build. To gain control of that temple mount is going to take a really big war between the Muslims and the "Jewish" people. At the end of 7 years the world will be on the edge of destruct. This is when Jesus will return WITH His church. His feet will touch the ground at the mount of olives and there will be an earthquake. We will rule and reign with Him for 1,000 years. This is the kingdom age when the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of God. The people alive at that time will be manifest sons of God (sons and daughters). We will be joint heirs with Christ. His Kingdom will never end. Not all nations will come to Christ though. There is a scripture about how God will not send them rain. For 1,000 years people will go to the place where the great battle is going to take place. There will be a resurrection at that time of the people that will reign with Christ for 1,000 year. Then there will be a resurrection at the end of the 1,000 year reign when there will be a new heaven and a new earth. "they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years were complete. This is the first resurrection. " (Rev 20"5) There was also a resurrection that took place right after calvary. We are not told what happened to the people who had their part in that resurrection.

1 John 3:2 New King James Version (NKJV)
2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be,
but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

Luke 24:36-43 New King James Version (NKJV)
Jesus Appears to His Disciples
36 Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.”
37 But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit.
38 And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39 Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have.”

40 [a]When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet.
41 But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, “Have you any food here?”
42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish [b]and some honeycomb.
43 And He took it and ate in their presence.
