We believe the order of the end time events will be as follows: (1) the personal, physical return of Jesus Christ to rapture the Church; (2) the seven year tribulation period; (3) the personal, visible return of Jesus Christ to the earth to establish His earthly kingdom which will continue for 1,000 years; (4) the final judgment and eternal state (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Daniel 9:24-27; 1 Thessalonians 5:9; Revelation 3:10; Matthew 24:5-21; Revelation 6:1-19:21; Isaiah 11:1-10; Revelation 19:11-21; 20:1-3, 11-15; 21:1-22:5).

The Bible teaches about the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost (Daniel 12:1-2; Revelation 21:1-22:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 15:20-58; Matthew 25:41, 46; John 5:28-29; Revelation 20:11-15).
