It would seem that in your opinion, there were no christians on earth after ad 70 until God convicted someone?? later. If all the dead in Christ and all those who were living were caught up to Him, there would be none left anywhere on earth. I always thought that Revelation was written after ad 90, but if you are correct it would have to have been written before ad 70. Else John the Revelator would not have been around to write itSo we have concrete evidence from scripture that no one went to heaven before the cross. (only the went to paradise or hades - both under the earth - place of rest or sleep) Christ made the sacrifice - entered the true holy of holies not made with hands - returned again to the people to pronounce their forgiveness and the acceptance of the sacrifice and took His bride from the earth and from beneath the earth and turned the kingdom over to the Father. will end the ages . Hebrews 9:26 since then He must often be suffering from the disruption of the world, yet now once, at the conclusion of the eons (or ages) age , Christ has not finished perfecting His kingdom and has not handed it over the Father yet because when He does, all of the ages will end . (IMHO!!):)I think it comes down to how one views the trinity.
