But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:
Now if Pauls' teaching can be traced back to them..we need to understand what exactly did they teach..I think many would be shocked to find out they never taught a rapture or physical bodies flying out of the ground but what they did teach was the resurrection or the reuniting of the 2 houses of Israel!
Jesus said He came not but for who?...the lost sheep of the House of Israel..He did not come for the Gentile even though they later would be included.Salvation was a promise to Old Covenant Israel,if Jesus has not already come this means Israel did not receive their promise which in turn means we today do not have ours.Because salvation was first promised to the Jews..If you have the Holy Ghost today,guess what..you have proof..

This is not about rapture or no rapture. It is about the truth that the church is for Israel, for whcih Paul was persecuted. But the bible does teach physical bodies coming out of graves.
