There are two phases which suggest that the is an intervining time between two events occurring inconjunction with His one coming. If we fail to observe these two stopping places, confusion will be ours. These two stopping places, shich namely are, a) "to meet the Lord in the air" 1 Thess 4:17; "His feet shall stand... upon the Mount of Olives." Zech. 14:41.
The first event He is on the way down for His true church and this will take place in the heavenlies, (in the air). The second event is connected with His millinial kingdom reign on earth.
