THINK by HIS Spirit, (the Mind of Christ) and not with your analytical, fleshly brain. Isa. 56:8-9.Actually the Bible declares that the Resurrection/Rapture is before the end of the world (or the age):
1 CORINTHIANS 15
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order: [1] Christ the firstfruits; [the resurrection of Christ] afterward [2] they that are Christ's at his coming. [the Resurrection/Rapture of the saints]
24 [3] Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
The Resurrection/Rapture (the saints going UP to Heaven) cannot possibly be the same as the Second Coming of Christ (the saints coming DOWN from Heaven). That would be absurd, since there must be a Marriage of the Lamb between those two events.
As to despising Darby and Dispensationalism, you could learn a lot if you had the humility to do so.
1 Thes. 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
