Ron,

If my memory serves me correctly, I think that I first came across your writings, could it be as long as 15 years ago?

You were bold in your writings, and I think that prompted me to actually begin writing letters to FiveDoves, instead of just taking swipes at those I disagreed with.

Regarding the subject of your recent letter, I also think that I asked you questions about this same topic, a number of years ago, and I also asked others, as well.

One question that I had, and asked you about, was regarding the Christians who passed before the blessed hope.

Because the subject was regarding Christians not being ready for the blessed hope, when the trumpet sounds.

I had wondered about other Christians, who, if they would have lived to the time of the blessed hope, may have been considered numbered with the ones that you were referring to.

I asked about them, since they've passed and are already in heaven, so would they therefore not join the other Christians in heaven, for the event of the blessed hope?

When the trumpet blows, yes, there will be believers on the earth, who will not die, but be changed into resurrected believers.

Also, there will be bodies of believers in Jesus, who have passed already, raised as resurrected bodies when the trumpet blows.

So, along with the resurrected living Christians, the resurrected bodies of those who had already passed, all go up to meet Jesus in the air.

Where resurrected bodies will be finally reunited with their soul and spirit, which Jesus brings with him from heaven, to the clouds, in the air.

Then all of them who are in the air, return with Jesus, back to heaven.

Again, what about the Christians who have already passed, and are in heaven, but if they had lived until the blessed hope, might have been considered not ready to go?

Will they have to wait until the Christians on earth who were not ready to go, are eventually resurrected, and at that time their bodies will be raised, as well?
