"Jesus makes zero reference" Yes, because the teachings of Christ THROUGH Paul are the "MYSTERY"
Rubbish, one of Paul's mysteries, important one, was clearly revealed to John in Rev - we shall not all sleep and in Rev we are shown that this gets completed and this is at the likes of the, just opening of the 7th seal before the wrath, or the sound of the 7th Trump.
In Matt Ch 24 first up Jesus is asked about his one and only, what is called the 2nd coming = end of story, NO secrete one before. Some meet Jesus in the clouds, about face and continue with him to where he is going, touch down. Just like when he come to town on the Donkey. The Bibles says, Jesus's people will come with him, as per the above. -------------- On another note, people seem think that if one dies now, part of them goes up = WHY in the bleepers wouldn't Paul not tell them that, when he tried to comfort them with the message he does, regarding their dead loved ones -> because the other message as mentioned here, is pork pies.
