So where does the rapture fit into this view? For example: It is written that "the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption, and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God." (Romans 8:19-21)
Do you mean the human sons or the literal divine ones like Michael the Archangel?
