"The Rapture happens before the 7 year tribulation"

No doubt about it [Revelation 3:10]

Amen and confirmation from scriptures. The church is delivered before God's wrath. Clearly a post-trib rapture is refuted in the context of the bible.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 (ESV) and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

Romans 5:9 (ESV) Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.

Hebrews 9:28 (ESV) so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.


Isaiah 26:19-21 New King James Version (NKJV)
19 Your dead shall live;
Together with my dead body they shall arise.

Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust;
For your dew is like the dew of herbs,
And the earth shall cast out the dead.
20 Come, my people, enter your chambers,
And shut your doors behind you;
Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment,
Until the indignation is past.
21 For behold, the Lord comes out of His place
To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity;
The earth will also disclose her blood,
And will no more cover her slain.


Zephaniah 2:1-3 New King James Version (NKJV)
1 Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together,
O undesirable nation,
2 Before the decree is issued,
Or the day passes like chaff,
Before the Lord’s fierce anger comes upon you,
Before the day of the Lord’s anger comes upon you!
3 Seek the Lord, all you meek of the earth,
Who have upheld His justice.
Seek righteousness, seek humility.
It may be that you will be hidden
In the day of the Lord’s anger.

Hebrews 12:22-26 New King James Version (NKJV)
22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, 23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.

25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, 26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.

Here is the bottom line on the Lord's call to immortalize His true ecclesia

This action will come abruptly and with no warning

.... and this will happen just before the Lord brings His unprecedented wrath and judgment upon an unbelieving world .... and not at the end of the period

The only humans that will need to be raised to immortality at the end of the tribulation will be the Lord's two prophets and the martyrs of the period who will become believers during the tribulation

Any man who thinks that he is saved for what ever reason and is not at the time will enter the period of the Lord's wrath upon the earth

The divides of the professing "church" are filled to the brim with the same today

The Lord's coming judgment is not for believers to experience since they are already saved by His grace .... not by their works, but by His ability and willingness to save them

Those who want the adventure of the tribulation period do not reflect a believer's standing and their desire makes no sense

These say that they must experience His wrath in order to prove themselves worthy .... the idea is bogus .... no man can do this proving

If this were true, then most of the dead in Christ will never get the same chance because His tribulation is still pending as we speak

There is something very wrong with the idea that only today's believer will have the opportunity to prove themselves in the tribulation

There is a rat in the wood pile spreading this lie .... no doubt

Straightshot---It matters when the Rapture happens,so we can be sure,
our light is shining. We want our family and loved ones to be ready for
this "Great Event".
The next great event could be all Christians uniting in one organization, then the
Rapture. We will know close to the day. 1 Thess. 5:4, But ye, brethren,
are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Forget the 6th seal,you are making it difficult for yourself
Order of events: Rapture, then very shortly after this, the man of sin will be
revealed with 666.
For the time of the Rapture we need only two scriptures, Psalm 90:10, Gen. 12:5.
Psalm 90:10 the age of man 70-80 years,the average is 75, add that to 1948-
we get 2023.Gen. 12:5 Abraham entered the promise land at 75, add that to
1948-we get 2023. Jesus returns for the Christians no later then 2023.
