Can anyone help me understand how the end of the church age will culminate with the rapture approximately 2000 years after Christs ascension if his disciples were looking forward to that era so to speak during their lifetime about 2000 years ago right after his literal resurrection?

Not sure where the idea of the phrase "church age" came from . The bride of Christ (new creature) has been at the forefront of prophecy since Genesis . I think it came about when men thought dividing up the bride of Christ in to different categories or dispensations.

The thousand years in the parable of revelation 20 represents a unknow . The word thousand is used that way through the bible to represent a unknown in whatever is in view to include time.

THE EMMAUS CODE

(excerpt)

The second half of the book, where Limbaugh shows how every book in the Old Testament points to Jesus, is where the book really shines. In these chapters, he deals with everything from specific verses to entire books to point out a few of the myriad Old Testament examples of predictions of the coming of Christ. While he provides a good deal of information, he barely scratches the surface and leaves plenty of room for further study.

One thing Limbaugh notes is that Christians need to understand the Old Testament, and, to a degree, “Jewishness”, in order to understand their faith. Given that, it is surprising he mentions nothing about the Jews having the Old Testament books in a different order than the typical Bible. The standard English order is based off a Greek reordering of the texts, trying to group things chronologically. The Jewish order, or Tanakh (TNK), has three sections: the Law (Torah), the Prophets (Nevi’im) and the Writings (Ketuvim). This is the order Jesus used and was familiar with, as Matthew 23:25 indicates. Thus, after the book of Judges, the orders differ between the Hebrew order and the English order.
