It is Gods wrath finally being poured out on sinful unbelievers---- you know how people always ask-" If there is a God why doesn't he do something about all the terrible things that happen???" well during the tribulation he IS showing his anger at those things-- its not for believers No. If it is not for the believers then why are those who refuse to take the mark being punished? Does God punish the righteous? Is God preventing people from buying and selling, and beheading those who refuse to worship the beast? According to you if we want to please God we must all take the mark and worship the Beast, after all we don't want God to persecute us do we? The Tribulation is a terrible time for the righteous. It is the AntiChrist who is persecuting those who refuse to take the mark. It is the AntiChrist who is responsible for the terrible Tribulation, not God. God's wrath comes afterwards!

You are correct it will be the anti-Christ who persecutes them, but the Horrible and catastrophic events that occur to inflict judgment on mankind's sins will be from the hand of God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Jesus called His disciples "evil". And many believers later who were/are far from perfect. IMO, only the believer's sins @ the time of receiving the Holy Spirit are forgiven ... subsequent sins must be confessed/repented of. Habitual (unrepentant) sinning believers will NOT be allowed into heaven! Edited October 6, 2016 by ZacharyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satan's (the antichrist's) wrath will be 3 1/2 years against believers -- Get Ready! God's wrath will be against unbelievers on the Last Day at Jesus' Second Coming.

Habitual (unrepentant) sinning believers will NOT be allowed into heaven! That's not what I'm talking about. God does NOT punish the righteous. So why would he punish those who don't worship the Beast? Answer: He wouldn't. So the Tribulation is NOT God's judgement. God's judgement is the wrath that comes afterwards.

This is simply NOT scriptural and is a fantasy of false prophets. Jesus even tells us that will be persecuted in Matthew 24. It couldn't get simpler and more plain than that.
