When the dead in Christ rise it is for sure and certain the Resurrection.
Which is a resurrection to the "spiritual body". That is what Apostle Paul was teaching in the 1 Corinthians 15 chapter, i.e., with what kind of body the resurrection is.
I read the Bible, not men’s theologies.
“If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.”
He said HE WOULD COME. I know you don’t like it but there it is. A direct quote from Jesus himself.
You said that's about the resurrection (i.e., resurrection of life), it isn't. It's a warning from Jesus about His coming alright, but His coming to cast those with the unbelievers.
Rev 2:5
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
KJV
That idea is about His coming upon them unawares. The idea of their candlestick being removed is about that Church being cast among the unbelieving, like the following warning in Luke 12...
Luke 12:45-46
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
KJV
