Interesting. Are you saying that because some think they will end up in the '7 year tribulation' they will?

Including 'christians'? Those who are not appointed to wrath will still end up in wrath if they believe they will? 

I am saying that those who are not saved will end up in the 7 year tribulation. Believers will go in the rapture of the Church Revelation 3:10

I understand what you are saying here, but for the sake of those that really do not understand or are weak in scripture, it would be nice to say that this is your belief rather than an absolute certainty. There are many I know that do not see it this way, and what one believes regarding this is not a Salvation issue and is still hotly debated.

I do not want a bunch of folk who endured terrible hardships to believe that they are somehow 'left behind' and were not worthy of Salvation. When the world really goes pear-shaped, our current blessings of instant communication and the WWW may just go away and folk will be left high and dry and feel abandoned. This may lead to their faith failing badly and in a panic they might turn to other avenues of 'salvation'.

Only my belief? Read the Bible literally and you will understand that what I have posted is God's word. That is why it is very, very important for a person to have a genuine born again belief in Jesus Christ.....NOW! Or they will be " left behind" and it will be heartbreaking for many. 

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

The Comfort of Christ’s Coming

13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.


1 Corinthians 15: 50-54

Our Final Victory

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”

To clarify. This is a 'belief' only. It may not happen this way.

Sure the Lord will gather His people in the end, which may be the second coming. No dispute there. 

But the 7 year tribulation etc., is only a 'belief system' of end times, based on certain readings of prophesy.

This has to do with the pre-trib ideas that have been floating around for a very long time and heralded by Darby and others. It is a 'theory' only.

No, to clarify this is God's Word. Read the Bible literally and do not give it your own words and there is no way you can miss the true meaning of the pretribulation view.

Sorry missmuffet but the pre-trib doctrine is only a theory, which many (and I'm included in the many) don't believe a word of it, because it is most defiantly not in the Bible. It is only a hope

It is not a theory it is the true written Word of God.

Jesus has warned mankind of the Great Tribulation :

Matt 24:21For at that time there will be great tribulation, unmatched from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.

And God will save the believers.

Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of btemptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

During Joseph's time in Egypt there was a 7 years of famine which was the shadow of the end times great tribulation.

Do you ever wonder about other verses in the Letters?

"But I have this against you: You have abandoned your first love. Therefore, keep in mind how far you have fallen. Repent and perform the deeds you did at first. But if you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place."

"Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life."

"But I have a few things against you, because some of you hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to place a stumbling block before the Israelites so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and commit sexual immorality. In the same way, some of you also hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Therefore repent! Otherwise I will come to you shortly and wage war against them with the sword of My mouth."

Jesus is addressing believers here and not all are pure, without spot or blemish. 

Are you saying if believers are believers in Jesus, yet have issues as recorded above, they are taken in the rapture? 

This is the Body Jesus is speaking to, the Church of Christ, He is calling us to repent, and telling some if they do not there are consequences not involving the rapture. Yet they are still believers in Christ, just with a few less that perfect ideas.

Seems Jesus does not think that the cause is not lost because of some bad behavior or smelly doctrines; yet at the same time He says repentance is a must or there are consequences, for believers.

Revelation 3:10

 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.

All those who are not saved will remain in the 7 year tribulation. They will have chance to come to Jesus Christ and will become martyred tribulation saints.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
