And as you ignore the rest of it: We who are still ALIVE and remain will go up as well...Bodies and all...

I didn’t ignore anything. In fact I explicitly dealt with the saints militant. Take off your rapturist glasses and read more carefully.

At Christ Second Coming the souls of the saints who have “fallen asleep” return with Christ to be reunited with their bodies (first), then the saints who are alive are translated body and soul, and both classes of saints are with Christ in their resurrected bodies.

There is no direct indication in the Bible that the “marriage supper” of the Lamb takes place in heaven. While this is asserted in rapturist theology, the fact is it will take place when the Bride is fully prepared, at the Second Coming at the (one and only) resurrection, perhaps in the new heavens and new earth.
