"Tyler Cole-2 Raptures?"

You are correct.  All believers will be raptured.
 
            The problem: there is more than one rapture.
 
Please show me scripture that supports this claim of more than one rapture.

This is typified in the parable of ‘the ten virgins’.  In the parable, the Bridegroom is coming back for His bride as portrayed by the five wise virgins.  These are those elect  first fruits who have made their garments clean and are counted worthy to escape the coming tribulation
 
The 10 virgins have nothing to do with the rapture of the Church.......it's speaking of the sheep and Goat judgement after Christ returns.

 The first-fruits, those taken in the barley harvest will return in glorified bodies to help prepare and lead to safety the “foolish virgins” who were unprepared and left behind, by helping them get ready for the ‘main harvest’ – the wheat harvest rapture – later in the tribulation period.  All who belong to Christ (dead or alive) at that time will be resurrected (or raptured) with the hope of attending the wedding supper of the Lamb.  Keep in mind that the wedding supper takes place after the wedding.  So shall they ever be with the Lord.
 
Where in scripture can you show me that we come back in glorified bodies to "help prepare and lead to safety"?
 
Just asking......Mercer
