(Juan Nuñez: I wanted to know if the dead who rise first can be at a different time than we will be raptured. In viewing the 2 verses I sent (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17). It seems like there could be separate events [the dead go first and after a while the living]. Much like Israel became a nation, then Later Jerusalem became part of the nation, then Jerusalem became capital of the nation over various years.)
