If the rapture happens at the end of the tribulation, that means all believers will still be added to the Church, and they will all be changed into glorified bodies unable to have children. So, who will remain in earthly bodies to start the population of the Millennial Kingdom?
It would be utterly impossible for the earth to be repopulated in this case.
The Church Age of Grace will end at the rapture, before the 7-year tribulation, which is another dispensation, as well as the Millennial Kingdom.
The Millennial Kingdom will be occupied by those with glorified bodies and those with earthly bodies. The unbelievers will be judged and, therefore, unable to enter into the Millennial Kingdom.
Glorified Bodies:
1. The Church, whose bodies were resurrected.
2. The Church whose bodies were alive and changed at the rapture.
3. Tribulation martyrs, who are resurrected after Christ returns to earth.
4. The Old Testament saints who are going to be resurrected according to Dan 12:2
"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words."
Thes 4:16-18 "And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt" Dan 12:2
Earthly Bodies:
1. Believer gentiles who survived the tribulation.
2. Believer Jews who survived the tribulation.
The saints in earthly bodies will enjoy long lives, at least 100 years, and they will have children. By the end of the thousand years, the world will be fully populated, and there will be many who rebel against the Lord, as stated in Revelation 20:7–8. Based on this, we know that the children born in the Millennial Kingdom will have the freedom to choose whether to exercise faith in Christ.
“No more shall an infant from there live but a few days, nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days; For the child shall die one hundred years old." Isaiah 65:20 "
Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea." Rev 20:7–8
After the Second Coming, there will be earthly bodies capable of reproducing children to populate the earth for a thousand years. If the Church still exists at the end of the tribulation, it means that all believers in Jesus, whether gentile or Jew, will be part of the Church and then transformed into glorious bodies.
The 7-year tribulation is around the corner, please get saved now!
Believe Jesus is the Son of God, who died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and resurrected during the third day, so we can have eternal life with Him.
The moment you believe in Him and that He died for your sins - you're saved, justified, sealed until the day of redemption, and rapture ready!
The Holy Spirit will come to live inside of you - He will help you, guide you, change you, and be with you FOREVER!
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
