The Rapture: Matt: 22-25 22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

Jesus returns for only one reason; to save the elect from the master of deception. "SEE" He says, in othe words OPEN YOUR EYES, and turn my words into a visual sight.

Matt: 24:26-28 26 “So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the wilderness,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. 27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

Before Jesus reveals the time of His return He warns us to not believe any other account that attemps to draw us from the next verse, Matt: 29. Immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days
“‘the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light;
the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[b]
30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[c] will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.[d] 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

Jesus spends the next several verses discussing His return.

If you are not convinced that Jesus will NOT reveal Himself again until AFTER the tribulation, and are prepared to create a different account than the one He Himself speaks, then refer to Matthew 24: 26-28

I believe that this taking up as already happened, but it was when Yeshua had came back. He took away those who were seeking and searching for them in their heart, and they were taken away at the fall of Jeruslaem. This is just my take, I don't have hope in these things, I just have hope of living a life that may be long, and hopefully is lived for God, and at the cessation of life, I will be able to go be with him at the end of it. All in faith in what his son had done, because I could never amount to what he had done that is for sure.

You can believe what ever you want, however, Jesus is the first and last word on the matter. Believe Him.
