If you want the scriptural truth about the resurrection & rapture, this thread will show the timing as explained solely from scripture with no added explanations. Some are condensed for space.
The rapture follows after the resurrection so the timing of both are interchangeable.
We which are alive & remain unto the *coming* of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. The Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout...the dead in Christ shall rise FIRST: Then we shall be caught up together with them in the clouds... 1 Thess 4
And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake...But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will rise to your inheritance at the end of the days. Dan 12:2, 13

And I will raise him up at the last day (repeated 5 times) John 6:38-54 & 11:23-25
Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened...and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven...He will send His angels with a sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds... Matt 24:29-31
And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars... Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near. Luke 21:25-28
I saw in the night visions, and behold, One like the Son of Man coming with the clouds of heaven! Dan 7:13a

Behold He comes with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and even those who pierced Him... Rev 1: 7a
And behold a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man...And He that sat on the cloud thrust in His sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. Rev 14:14-16
Behold I show you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 1 Cor 15:51-52
But in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as He declared to His servants the prophets. - Rev 10:7
Then the seventh angel sounded.... The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come, and *the time of the dead*, that they should be judged, and that You should *reward* your servants the prophets and the saints... Rev 11:15,18
Now, brethren, concerning the *coming* of our Lord Jesus Christ AND our gathering together to Him...Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed... 2 Thess 2:1-3
As in Adam all die; even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Every man in his own order: Christ the first fruits; afterward they that are Christ's at His *coming*. Then comes the end. 1Cor 15

When He shall *appear*, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John
Abide in Him; that when He shall *appear*, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming. 1 John 2:28

I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead *at His appearing and His kingdom*... 2 Tim 4:1
I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus...had not worshiped the beast or his image, neither had received his mark on their foreheads, or in their hands; they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years...This is the first resurrection. Rev 20:4-6
