Such believe Jesus could return any moment to resurrect dead Christians and then secretly rapture His dwindling though still-living Church up in the air before the great tribulation of ungodly earthlings. Thereafter, the Church would then return and rule with Christ on Earth for a thousand years - until God would resurrect the wicked dead. That notion is false. Neither the Church of the Older Testament (even when under foreign domination) nor the always-struggling and often-persecuted Church of the Newer Testament ever expected to dwindle or to be whisked away; but only to conquer this great planet Earth under her victorious Messiah. That Church expected God not to the rapture her - but to heal the World His Son had come to save.
