I like your post above because of your understanding that the Lord's next intervention will come without warning to call His true ecclesia to immortality .... and then to bring His judgment upon the unbelieving unsuspecting world at the time [Matthew 24:36-39; Revelation 3:10]
This unprecedented judgment will come upon both Israel for pressuring the nation to turn to Him, and upon the nations of the Gentiles to punish them for refusing to believe the truth about Him and who He is
But, He has not given the dating of His first action and there will be no signs or warning given .... these things will manifest only just after He has executed [begun] His coming judgment "the Day of the Lord" .... so nothing will be apparent until
We simply will have no way of predicting His initial intervention by any signs before .... things may look like He is about to pull the trigger .... but no one can know .... many have speculated over the centuries and all have obviously been wrong
So it is better not to speculate the event .... He said one must be ready [saved] for a time that no one can predict
Also, understand that Matthew 24 and Luke 21:20-36 are about national Israel and not the "church", but about the coming time of Jacob's trouble still pending as we speak .... and there is nothing in the passage about an end time resurrection of anyone recorded .... the Lord's true ecclesia will have already been made immortal just before
What we do have today is a returned remnant of Israel in the land as an independent political entity after centuries of uprooting and displacement, and this must be so because the nation has to be there in order to experience what is coming
The current remnant is in blindness today, but this is going to change during the coming 70th week decreed for the nation, and a portion will turn to their Messiah and King [Isaiah 11; 27:12-13; Zechariah 13:8-9; Matthew 24:29-31; Romans 11:25-36]
So the Lord has delayed [2 Peter 3:8-9] His next intervention because of Israel's rejection of Him at His first advent in the first century with the foreknowledge that many will seek and find His salvation .... and when the fullness of His true ecclesia is complete and all are made immortal, He will then bring the 70th week decreed [Daniel 9:24-27] still pending [Romans 11:25-37]
