Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:” (Matthew 25:34) Now let us look at Verses 40, 41, once again, “Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (V.40) Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. (V.41).” Notice carefully, that the ones that are taken are the lost that are cast into the everlasting fires of Hell. The ones that are left are the saved that enter Christ’s Kingdom on Earth. What takes place at the Rapture is OPPOSITE of what takes place at the Judgment of the Nations. These two comings of Christ are NOT the same event, as the two are separated by the space of seven years, known as the Seven-Year Tribulation period of time. Now let us look at 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17, “For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. (V. 15) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (V. 16) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (V. 17)” In Verse 15 the word “prevent” is the Greek word that means “precede.” The word “asleep” is referring to the body; not, the soul and spirit. James 2:26 lets us know that, “For as the body without the spirit is dead,...” 2 Corinthians 5:8 states that, “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord
