Daniel's 70 weeks are for the Jewish people (Daniel 9:24). They are not for the Church, so Jesus will rapture the Church out, so he can go back to dealing with Israel.
"Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. (Jeremiah 30:7)
i.e. Jacob's trouble / Israel's trouble / not the Church's trouble (we will be raptured out)
Is it possible for there to be more than one trumpet or is there only one trumpet in the history of time? I'd say it's more likely to be talking about a different trumpet considering the other trumpet is 40yrs too early to be revealed.
I would recommend this video cos it will explain all this a lot better than I can - https://t.co/04L1o9MyrE
Jesus was a Jew who came to preach to the Jews (Matthew 15:24). Therefore, Matthew 24 is talking to Jews, not to the church.
Regardless of that, Jesus is not even talking about the Rapture in this passage. The Rapture was revealed through Paul decades later in 1 Thessalonians, ~51AD.
Jesus here is talking to Jews about the tribulation and his return at Armaggedon. Nothing to do with the Rapture of the church.

The Bible is quite clear it will be a pretrib Rapture
Ok when I read the Bible, I see it clearly pointing to a pretribulation Rapture. Here's why:
---
1) At the end of the tribulation, Jesus will come down at Armageddon and then rule for the millennium kingdom. So what would be the point of the Rapture? We could just stay here on Earth.
Post-tribulation rapture makes no sense.

3) "In the moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed" (1 Corinthians 15:52)
This is NOT talking about the last trumpet of the tribulation because that was revealed to John in the book of revelation (chapter 8) in 95-96AD. Paul wrote 1 Corinthians in 55AD. So it doesn't make sense for Paul to be talking about the trumpets which haven't been revealed yet.
It is obviously a different trumpet and definitely interesting how it says "at the last trump" whilst Trump is in his final term as US president...
---
4) Paul said let any other angel which is preaching any other gospel be accursed (Galatians 1:8). During the tribulation, there will be other angels preaching a different method of salvation (Revelation 14:6-9) so are they suddenly accursed? Therefore, mid or post tribulation rapture is not possible.
---
5) The Rapture is described as our "blessed hope" (Titus 2:13) and we should "comfort one another with these words" (1 Thessalonians 4:18). How can we comfort each other if we now we are going to have to go through part or all of the tribulation? For this to make sense, the Rapture must be our blessed hope to occur before the tribulation and get us out of there before it all goes downhill.
