Dear friends, I'd like to offer my insight to the "catching up" event. To fully understand what it is to catch up we must believe and understand that there is a paradigm shift in two realms of time, one is not and one is.
This is simply describing a spreading between two timelines, and a gap had formed as the result, a space of void, or Abyss in between the two dimensions. Imagine all of the world walking along side with Christ, and we keep pace with Him in this paradigm but when we offend Him we then run amok and ahead of God like children rushing to the gates of Disneyland while leaving their parents behind. This forms a spread and a gap between the children and their Parents, and in this picture it is Christ.
The world has been living within this paradigm, and without God for a bit less than 200 years, and until this day. When the Lord comes He approaches the world which is as closing this gap, and it's like bringing two land masses together after removing the artificial bridge that man had created with the authority and power of the dragon. This was caused by the introduction and receiving of the AOD (abomination causes desolation's).
This gap is closing now, it began not very long ago, and it is the execution of advancement towards Judgment, and Enoch spoke of this, which I recently addressed in another thread.
There is a misalignment of the two timelines, one natural and the other is prophetically supernatural where God is. To catch up is to close the gap where those who have been resurrected in the first Resurrection are already with Christ, or in the process of awakening and then they are taken up to a new Mind and Spirit while never leaving the flesh or body. They have not left earth but have gone to heaven in thought which is Spirit.
Those who are first taken up are the 144k elect, and they will catch those who are coming into their proximity as Christ draws close to execute His Judgments, which the 144k do as instructed. They are the angels, and are still man in flesh while here on earth and performing the Harvest. They are the harvest workers and are few. Thanks
This is all TOTAL AND COMPLETE NONSENSE: human reasoning gone to seed. Paul TELLS US CLEARLY what his gathering is: the dead in Christ are resurrected, meet their new body in the air, and then we that are alive and In Christ are CAUGHT UP together with them, to meet Jesus in the AIR, and in the CLOUDS. John 14 then tells us we will be escorted to HEAVEN where we will stay for 7 years plus, and then enter into the marriage and supper. AFter that, we ALL get on white horses and descend to earth.
This is TRUTH and cannot be changed.

And, I forgot to mention that "Time" may only exist within the Abyss/gap/space in between the two ends, which are the seen/unseen Beginning and the seen/unseen Ending. Everything outside of the Abyss is Eternity, and without time.
*Edited: As the two timelines draw close together, simulating two land masses and a bridge to span the gap, the bridge will collapse as the land masses move. One land is natural and the other spiritual, and these are two dimensions in space and in the paradigm. As God closes the gap the Arc angel is then able to bridge the gap with His body. He Stands across the gap when close enough to Leap it, and He places one foot on the landing. This Bridge, the Arc angel is coming and almost here and He will Stand across that gap, forming the Bridge that spans across the spiritual Red Sea. This is the image of Heaven coming to earth, and then God may walk across the Arc angel and be here with us, and through the Arc angel. The Arc angel is the conductor of God's Spirit to replace the artificial power that has been running this world by man's creations/inventions. The bridge is stressing and soon to collapse for this to come. We are approaching quickly.
I know that this is over your head but give it "time", err, perhaps, wait until time is no more? Thanks
*BTW, you got a point here, in your first sentence. This is exactly what we are expected to do, return to the "Seed" and be Born, Again! But, of course we must know which seed is which. One is Authentic, while the other is a spiritual rendering of a seed by "GMS" (genetically modified spirit). Thanks
Why not just write in good American English?

If we stick to the Word we will learn that man is fallen from God. This is why God returns to save man. In context, men have become as beasts [Rev 13:4] and are given authority and power of the dragon to blaspheme the Most High, and this is done with the mouths of the beasts. Men are as beasts of the field. Enoch and other prophets all describe the very same nature albeit they did use various symbolism to depict the beastly nature of man and how God sees the fallen man.
Imagine now what God is dealing with when man has become as a beast. Certain scriptures refer to evil/fallen men as "dogs" so using this same metaphor we can then realize that we are like dogs. Have you ever tried to hold an intellectual conversation with a dog? If you have you might be thought a lunatic. Now, if God were to be seen speaking with Dogs and expecting them to understand then all of heaven might be laughing at God.
God cannot hear our prayers when we are fallen because we are like dogs barking up the Tree of Life. God must resurrect the fallen man and gift man with a new mind and a heart of human flesh, and this is to raise us up from the beastly nature that we have evolved with. We have spiritually evolved into beasts.
Now, are we speaking a new song/language or are we still barking up our Tree of Life? Thanks
Rev. 13 is speaking of a CERTAIN man, called elsewhere the "man of siin." Does God see the lost man as a "dog?" I don't think so. I disagree: God DOES hear the prayers of a unregenerate person IF that prayer will lead to their salvation. In fact, God hears EVERY prayer of an unregenerate person when they ask for forgiveness.
By the way, Adam GAVE us that nature, we did not evolve into it. There was MURDER in the first generation!

More reference to prayer and communication blocked by sin and fallen nature.
Isaiah 1:15
King James Version (KJV)
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
2 Chronicles 7:14
King James Version.
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
God will hear from heaven? Which heaven if God is already in heaven? Reason is, heaven is in the mind of the wicked as well, but it becomes hell to them. God is referring to the upper chamber in their mind. God will hear from their minds, not their mouths because they only defile themselves with lies that proceed from their mouths.
Job 35:11
King James Version (KJV)
11 Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?
Lamad, God compares to the before and after condition of man of sin, and uses beasts as contrast. It's written in English and quoted from the Bible as per request. Thanks
God hears prayers of repentance, not vanity! God requires for a change of heart before He will hear us.

There is nothing in Revelation that states we go to heaven
and stay there for seven years.
