Well I hope you're wrong, I'd rather not go through the tribulation period.
Well the righteous are never appointed unto God's wrath, that is reserved for the ungodly. 2 Peter 2 is very specific about it. Also 1 Thessalonians 5:9 says, "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ" so we are not to worry about God's wrath, since our sins are judged on Calvary. We have nothing to fear with God's wrath, which is was is described for the later times. In 2 Peter 2 he gives us to examples of God's judgement on man and how eac time he made sure that the righteous weren't destroyed along with the wicked. Both Noah and his family and Lot and his family were spared God's wrath because they were righteous before God. God always provides a way for the Godly to survive when he brings judgement. The end times is a joyous time, since it means are no longer in our sinful bodies but in our glorious bodies, not suffering from the penalty of sin any more. Jesus does warn us that before he comes we will suffer the wrath of men, but that is light compared to facing God's wrath.
