THE RAPTURE, A SECRET JESUS COULDN’T REVEAL

Because Revelation 20 specifically speaks of a thousand year reign. We should always take scripture literally except where it is clearly figurative.

Besides what mattfivefour said, which I 100 percent agree with, here's my reasoning:
John 14:1-4 nkjv
“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
Where is He preparing a place? In Heaven. Where will Jesus be during the millennium? On Earth. To my simple way of thinking, that makes this a pretrib Rapture passage. If you don't believe in a literal millennium, it could refer to any time frame.
