"Pre-trib rapture" IN NO WAY divides "the body of Christ"... (tho Abs does hold to the "partial rapture theory," which I would say such an idea does have such an effect).
I've constantly maintained that the "Rapture" pertains SOLELY TO (to/for/about) "the Church WHICH IS HIS BODY" (Eph1:20-23 WHEN [as to its existence]<--which fact you disagree with); that is ALL members of "the Church WHICH IS HIS BODY" [ALL those having come to faith "in this present age [singular]"] WILL GO in the "Rapture" (which occurs ONLY ONCE, at ONE POINT IN TIME)...
The "Rapture" does NOT pertain to all other saints of all OTHER time periods (not to OT saints, not to Trib saints, not to MK saints; and no, you cannot be an OT saint even if you cry and scream and say, "but I WANNABE!!" The fact is, you are not one. You did not come to faith in and during that time period, see... They did though... I mean, those that did, did )

This post of yours #1040, right now, is a prime example.
Every word of God is flawless;
He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.
Do not add to His words,
lest He rebuke you and prove you a liar.
Why do yo find it so difficult to lay hold of the Eternal Commandment = Duet 4:1-2, Proverbs 30:5-6, Revelation 22:18-19
What you should do is constantly maintain what we are commanded = the word of the LORD = 1 Thess 1:10 , 4:13-18 , 2 Thess 2 , 1 John 2 , 1 Timothy 4:1 , Revelation ch6, 7, 14, 19, 20
