Re: Robert Belanger's post 30 March:

"The Firstfruits rapture/resurrection is a special entrance into heaven
before the trials of the Tribulation begin for those who have been
faithful and demonstrated Christian maturity during the course of their
lives. (Luke 21:36, 2 Peter 1:10-11)"

That seems to leave little hope for modern-day prodigal sons...
