Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Gathering of Saints

The verse describes a gathering of "his elect," which does not explicitly state these are "saints" or "believers" in a modern theological sense, nor does it explicitly state they are "meeting the Lord at his coming," but rather being gathered by angels.

Sequential Timeline

While the verse describes an event that will happen "then," it does not inherently establish a sequence of events before or after it, making its contribution to a "Sequential Timeline" more about its placement within a larger narrative rather than its internal chronological structure.
