Hello, John and Doves,
 
That's why the Rapture--all of it--happens between successive moments in time.
 
How long does it take for light to twinkle?  It's the length of time between the time it is "on" and the time it is "off."  That's no time at all.  For that's what we see when stars (and planets, and such) appear to twinkle.
 
The entire Universe will stop, the Rapture will happen, then the whole Universe will go on its merry way--a little bumpily at first, of course.
 
It is written,
    "The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."
Hebrews 1:3  NIV
 
Baruch HaShem El Shaddai,

"Dead People at the Mall"


If there is a delay between the Rapture of the dead and the Rapture of the living, then what happens to those Christians who die between the two Resurrections?  They will have died after the dead in Christ rise, but already be dead when the living rise.
