I heard a new term, well new to me anyway. Christophobic: (the fear of Christ.) The question I have is, are people becoming Christophobic because they fear God's wrath or is it because the enemy knows that his time is short and is causing this reaction? We talk about arab spring and now we see the term anti-christian spring, but is it because of our Classification as 'christian' or because we represent Christ on earth.

Hope everthing he has prophecied comes true or he will be a false prophet. God's prophets of old relied on their prophecies coming to pass, that was their badge of being a true prophet.

If you are interested in more information which has stronger support look up Pre-Tribulation Rapture.

The answer to the question 'is it world wide or locally confined' would have to be world wide. If the requirment for salvation during the tribulationsi faith in Christ and refusal to take the mark then only a few would have to make that decision while the rest would be in limbo. According to most theologians beheading is the path to heaven during that period. To exclude some because they did not live in a particular region would be unfair to the rest.
