Is there a post in this thread by you where you have laid out a timeline as you understand it? I've been a little hit and miss.
I had a vision when I was about 17 years old that has never fit with the pre-trib rapture preached in my Assembly of God church or any preacher I had ever heard. But I knew it was from God. I saw the playing out of 2 Peter 3:10-12 from literally a personal experience, as if it was happening at that moment. My unsaved cousin who had spent the night with me saw me in vision and said my entire body was trembling. She was shaking me, trying to pull me out of it (not knowing I was in a vision). When I cane out of the vision, she was shaking me, repeating my name over and over. It was the most gloriously amazing experience, bc it was as if I was there in real time ...in a beautiful green pasture with a lot of other believers, looking up into the sky. And the sky was literally the colors of fire ...orange, red, purple, blue, yellow ... it was beautiful but we felt no heat.
We were looking up, and it all parted/rolled back ....and we saw Jesus! As soon as we saw Him, we were saying, "It's HIM! It's Jesus! It's Jesus! It's Jesus!" And as soon as we saw Him, praises poured out, arms upraised, and Holy Spirit drew us up ....garments were changed. And at that point, I cane out of the vision and my cousin shaking me, calling my name.
