Pretrib is not even found in the bible. It's a man made invention. The bible teaches a rapture after the GT.
Pre-tribulation is a man-made term, that expressly applies to A Biblical Teaching.
Tribulations occur all the time that negatively affect the population at large. Every catastrophic weather disturbance, every war, every oppression and attack against people for what ever reason is a tribulation.
Scripture gives us notice of A Historical GREAT Tribulation, CAUSED BY God Himself, and notice of another FUTURE GREAT Tribulation, CAUSED BY God Himself Sitting IN HIS Heavenly Throne.
The FIRST GREAT Tribulation....8 persons of the entire world population were SAVED from Destruction....Day by Day being RAISED UP ABOVE the Face of the Earth...where ALL THE DESTRUCTION was occurring.
LIFE of men Upon the Face of the Earth DIED.
For Thousands of Years...the entire growing world population has BEEN WARNED....God WILL CAUSE another, (and LAST), GREAT Tribulation to occur UPON the Face of the Earth. Bit by Bit, UNTIL the entire face of the Earth Suffers DESTRUCTION.
LIFE of men Upon the Face of the Earth SHALL DIE.
If you were Familiar with What God SENT and OFFERED to ALL of mankind 2,000+ years ago....You would KNOW, the ABSOLUTE Difference Between...
A man Converted “IN” Christ.....and ALL other men of the entire World Population.
A man Converted “IN” Christ, has Freely ALREADY “given” his “bodily” LIFE unto the Lord, and Accepted Gods GIFT of a saved soul and quickened spirit.
Do you SEE a difference....Between A man “freely choosing to lay down” His own bodily life.......or A man “waiting” for His bodily life to be Killed During the Future Great Tribulation?
God requires the LIFE of Every man.
The Life of Every man IS His BLOOD, which keeps his body alive.
A man can GIVE “his life” FREELY.
Or a man can WAIT until God Takes “his life”.
Which do you think...reveals a mans Greatest Love for God?
God Offered Every man Opportunity to “lay down their Life”, crucified with Christ....and Every man Who Chooses to “lay down their Life”, is gifted with forgiveness, restoration of their soul and quickening of their spirit....and PROMISED to NOT BE Subjected to the WRATH of God that SHALL “once again”, come upon the face of the Earth.
* AND What a man is called, who Accepts Gods Offering is expressly CALLED:
Converted “IN” Christ.
* AND What a man is promised, who Accepts Gods Offering is expressly TO NOT Suffer His Wrath.
* AND How a man SHALL NOT Suffer His Wrath, IS the SAME WAY Noah did not suffer His Wrath....Lifted up above the Face of the Earth while the Earth and it’s occupants ARE suffering Gods Wrath.
* Why is Gods Anger Kindling, building up, until God unleashes His Wrath Upon the Earth and its Occupants?
Scripture TOLD us in Noah’s Day.
Scripture TELLS us in the Days since the Great flood.
Ecc 1:
[
9] The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is
no new thing under the sun.
[
14]
I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is
vanity and vexation of spirit.
Ecc 1:
[
9]
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and
that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
Gen 6:
[
7] And the LORD said, I will
destroy man whom I have created
from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
[
13] And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold,
I will destroy them with the earth.
Rom 1:
[
18] For the
wrath of God is revealed
from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
1 Thes 5:
[
9] For
God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ...
Gen 7
[
18] And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and
the ark went upon the face of the waters.
[
19] And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
[
20]
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
Have you ever looked 22 feet above the highest mountains, seen the clouds?
Nothing new...the Converted IN Christ are not subject to Wrath.
Nothing new...As Noah was lifted up off the face of the Earth, Safe IN the clouds, so also shall the Saved IN Christ be lifted up IN the clouds.
1 Thes 4:
[
16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead
in Christ shall rise first:
[
17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be
caught up (Rapture, translated from Latin Raptus, ie carrying off) together with them
in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
