Bible Note: Where does it say that the tribulation is the wrath of God? I don't see anything-supernatural taking place in the tribulation. Everything that takes place during that period has been happening on the Earth for years, it is just intensified at that time. God's wrath is with Fire.
Remembering, it is man, and not God, who put in the chapter and verse divisions, what does God teach us through Paul? "For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of [the] archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up (raptured) together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with the Lord. Now as to the times and the epochs [of what?], brethren, you have no need of anything to be written to you. For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like birth pangs upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief;"
It seems that Paul associates the rapture with the beginning of the "day of the Lord"... rapture then wrath! (Any "day of the Lord" passages in the Old Testament will describe it as a day of "wrath".) It says here that it is the "day of the Lord" which comes "like a thief in the night," but if the rapture occurs immediately before it, that still raptures us out before God's wrath begins, and both would come as a thief in the night, right? Denial's 70th week is not the tribulation period; it just runs concurrent with it. The tribulation is cut short at some point during the last half of the 70th week. The Lord will not cut the 70th week short, if He did it would not be a full week to make 70. CDBJ
