There is so much precedent in the Bible for this. I don’t understand why people can’t see it clearly for themselves. The Egyptian plagues, Noah’s flood, etc… God’s people went THROUGH those – they weren’t removed from them. Why should we be different?

It doesn’t even make sense to have the anti-christ without the real church of Jesus Christ being here if you really think about it. His purpose is to try and deceive as many Christians as possible. The unsaved will need our guidance during the 7 year tribulation period, as the church carries light and hope.

If you are “tribulation ready”, you are always going to be “rapture ready”. But vice versa is the real question. Most christians have never really felt persecution. Not constant life threatening persecution.

I have a feeling many will fall away and question their faith. Think about it, the rapture before tribulation is preached as a fact. If that doesn’t happen, how many will question whether Jesus is even real? I’m not saying all but how many? Real questions.

Given my choice, give me a church which knows it’ll experience trouble – much like our brothers and sisters do right now around the world – and which will count on Jesus to see them through it over a church which is asking Jesus to whisk them away to avoid any times of trouble.

CONCLUSION

I’m more tribulation ready than rapture ready.

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Matthew 24:13
