I am new to this site so not sure how it even works yet. I have been studying biblical prophecy for the past 40 years though and have settled even 40 years ago after being taught a pretrib rapture doctrine since 1956 as I became a man I put away childless thoughts and took the scriptures for what they said. I became a prewrath believer even before I had heard the phase or saw the book. There are a few question that I have wrestled with many years. I have talked to many Bible scholars across the globe. Some to big to mention and none of their answers were biblical enough for me but were opinions which I don’t regard to high, theirs or mine. 1. Does the wrath of GOD include the trumpet judgements with the 7 bowls of wrath and if so what scriptures prove that? 2. Why is not the 7th trumpet judgement not the rapture and the bowls the beginning of the 7th seal? (Trumpets not in included) 3. If the 7 feast of the LORD was given as a pattern of His first coming as in the Spring feast to the day and very hour as a the Lamb of GOD to fulfill Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, Pentecost and to Jerusalem (Zec 9:9 as a King) riding on a colt. Why does it seem all prophecy teachers ignore the last 3 Spring Feast of Trumpets, (the day no man knows the day or hour) or the “10 days of awe) between that day and the Day of Atonement? Or the feast of Tabernacles which all take place in a 21-22 day period. Did GOD just forget about them? No. Then where do they fit into most people’s second coming on a Horse as King, Judge and Executor? 4. Is not the return of Yeshua a event that occurs over these 21-22 DAYS OF THE LORD in a coming in the air rapture and a 10 days of the wrath of GOD followed by a return As King on the DAY OF ATONEMENT? The feast of Tabernacles would start the 1,000 year of Tabernacling on earth with man? I don’t claim my perspective is 100% right but I see few mention or include it into their view of prophecy? 5. I personally believe in a second coming rapture before the 7 bowls of wrath. I do not believe they last months or years? I don’t see or think that the GOD who created the earth and what the eye can see would take year or months to pour out His wrath nor could the earth endure it for months or years. There will be no fight between him, Satan or the world but a slaughter just at his coming. The Creator does not lower Himself to battle with what he has created the devil included. That is left to Micheal who has always been the contender and restrainer against him for GODS people. 6. I do not believe the term “except those days be shortened” that Tribulation is shortened or his coming or the 7 years. Shortened means if it was extended beyond that man and Satan would destroy the earth and all mankind. When GOD says, 42, 1260, or 7 years he means it.
