Subject: WHICH COMES FIRST, THE RAPTURE OR TRIBUL |
Bible Note: Thanks for your reply. It is very interesting. I guess I can kind of see this view and kind of agree. But, where would you put the events of Revelation? See, I believe these things (mostly) will occur before the rapture. In fact, I believe these are the same things I pointed to in the Daniel verses. In fact, I think they are happening right now. Where I think I differ, is in what we are terming things. I believe there will be wars (which always cause famines). I believe we will be persecuted more and more. I believe things are going to start getting worse and worse just as both the Matthew and Daniel verses say. But then, these days will be cut short and these things will end when Jesus appears (rapture). Then starts Revelations. Which is what I believe is the great tribulation. I see what we will be here for to just be the "birth pangs." Nothing compared to the 7 seal, trumpet and bowl judgments and three woes. Bless...ArtS |
