then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
"A meeting in the air is pointless unless the saints continue on to heaven with the Lord who has come out to meet them." [Note: Thomas, p. 279. Cf. George Milligan, St. Paul’s Epistles to the Thessalonians, p. 61.]
