Those who are believing the church will not be rapture until the end of the tribulation will believe the antichrist will be that Christ they are looking for. These people are looking for the antichrist right now. If you talk to them the first thing they think about is "who is the antichrist." Born again believers are not looking for the antichrist, they are looking for their Savior in the clouds.
Luke 21:27-28 "…27At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28When these things begin to happen, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”
Why would we be looking up as described in Luke? WE are looking up because we are looking for our Savior in the clouds to take us in the rapture.
Born again believers know that Christ will not come to earth when He comes for His church. He will come in the clouds, call us up and take us to the marriage supper of the Lamb.
The rapture is not the "second coming of Christ", He will not come to earth then. The second coming is when Christ will set His feet on the Mount of Olives.
Zechariah 14:3-5 "…3 Then the LORD will go out to fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle. 4 On that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half the mountain moving to the north and half to the south. 5 You will flee by My mountain valley, for it will extend to Azal. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and ALL THE HOLY ONES WITH HIM.…"
As you can see in verse 5 all those who were raptured it'll be with Him.
Zechariah 14:9 "9 And the Lord will be king over all the earth; in that day the Lord will be the only one, and His name the only one.:
