Hrmmm Val ... we need to visit ... I'm under the impression that
when He comes back, the dead in Christ shall rise first...(does this mean the "spiritually dead?), of that, I'm not clear. Scripture states (shaddup Mulder

) that there is ONE death, ONE burial, ONE ressurrection. Meaning, how could there be a "Rapture" wherein some stay here for the *ahem* tribulation, while others go on to the Kingdom? On this point, I'm not clear either. Scripture states again, that ALL knees shall bow on judgement day...some to the right hand of God...others to the left. BUT, if some are left here, and some are in Heaven, how can it be?? It can't! Oh brother, this isn't EVEN coming out like I want it to... anyway... I'm gonna dodge any incoming bullets on this matter. I disagree with a fire hell brimstone aftermath (tribulation) ... We will ALL see the HELL on earth, before HE returns. (If it's in our lifetime, and I personally think it's knockin' on the door)...
