Hi gopher_baroque. The word "rapture" is not found in the Bible. It is a theological term that describes an event found in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17:
"For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
When Christ returns on the last day, He brings all of those who have died in the Lord (they who were Saved). These True Believers will be in their Spirit or Soul essence. They will be reunited with their bodies they left here on earth. These bodies will be resurrected into Glorified Spiritual Bodies.
At the same time, those True Believers who are still alive when Christ returns will also receive their new Glorified Bodies. It is these True Believers who will be "caught up" or "raptured" to be with Christ in the air. This is what the rapture is.
As for the unsaved at this time, they will remain and go through the Judgment of God. All found guilty are then cast into Hell.
When this is finished, the true Believers will live with God in the New Heavens and the New Earth that God tells of in Revelation 21:1-3:
"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God."

All believers interior the Lord Jesus Christ will upward push up into the air. Then those that are left would be destroyed. in case you have examine or heard something a pair of rapture and how anybody is going to ask your self what befell to all those Christians then you certainly have been lie to and you may desire to get on your knees and pray which you is quite no longer left at the back of because of the fact while the Lord Jesus Christ returns there is quite no longer any day after today. he will wreck his enemies with the brightness of his coming. now's the time to repent of sin and get carry of him into your heart, earlier you notice human beings transforming into to fulfill their Lord interior the air and you're no longer one among them.

The Rapture won't happen until after the Tribulation, which won't be a pleasant time. Check out the first link below for a chronology of events leading up to the end of the world.

When the Valkyrie come and take me home to Valhalla, I won't give a sh*t about those who died cowardly or dishonorable deaths and must freeze for all eternity in Hel with Hella and her minions.

They will have chosen to ride it out.
Real thrill seekers if you ask me.
