(Photo: © Marek-Be-LER / pixelio.de) One of the most controversial issues in the church today is the time of the rapture. The four most common views are
first "Pre-tribulation" = the Rapture occurs before the 7-year tribulation
second "During the tribulation" = the Rapture occurs in the middle of the tribulation, So 3 ½ years after its inception
third place "after the tribulation" = the Rapture at the end of the Tribulation
4th place "The wrath" = a slight amendment to the 3rd View
First, it is important to recognize the purpose of the rapture. According to the prophet Daniel, there is a seventieth "week of years" (= 7 years), which has not yet taken place. The entire prophecy of Daniel, the seventieth week of years is about the nation of Israel.
Daniel chapter 9, verses 20-27
"While I was speaking and praying, and my sin and the sin of my people Israel and known for my request the holy mountain of my God before the Lord, my God, brought, even while I was still speaking and praying, I was touched by the angel Gabriel, whom I had first seen the face, when I was completely exhausted by the time of the evening sacrifice.
And he taught me and talked to me, saying, "Daniel, now I am expected to teach you patience! As you began to pray, issued a word, and I have come to announce it to you, for you are a much beloved [husband]. Thus, eight now on the word and understand the face!
About your people and your holy city 70 weeks are determined to make the violation has ended, and Dismiss sins to atone for the sin and to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint a holy of holies. Then know and understand: From the adoption of the command to restore and build Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the Prince, take seven weeks and 62 weeks, roads and ditches are built again, in a time of trouble.
And after the 62 weeks shall Messiah be cut off, and He will not be granted, the city, but along with the sanctuary the people will destroy the future rulers, and it is going down in the overflowing flood, and unto the end there be war, firmly decided devastation.
And he is close with many a solemn covenant for one week: and in the middle of the week he will put an end to slaughter and meat offering, and along the wings are anathema set of desolation, until the fixed adopted destruction over the destroyer pours. "
Here, God addresses specifically to Israel. The seventieth week of years, the 7-year tribulation period, must therefore be a time in which God deals especially with Israel. This does not mean that the bride community . could not be present, it raises the question: Why should the bride be community during this time on earth

Note from me: I am
with the doctrine that we have to go through the terrible tribulation and the rapture at the end of which will be raised. In me, the anxiety is triggered and I did not want the Jesus comes back soon.
I did not want to should not live to see such bad times, such as has never happened before on earth. Because that Jesus says about the Tribulation.
I've often wondered why God then so what will make us Christians, but we believe in Jesus. The explanation you gave me is that this time is in the God of Christians and reviewed explained, so that we are worthy to meet him when he comes back.
No wonder I was afraid of God and this time, because I found I was not ready for it. I was not worthy. It also gave me the all occupied with biblical and other books, so I have all believed.
Since I am 3 years ago with the theme of "pre-tribulation rapture" started to employ, I have become calmer and more confident. I have asked God for his wisdom and leadership that he revealed to me his word and explained.
He has also done little by little and still does, so that my heart has grown in confidence Is that he loves me and me and all who have accepted Jesus as their Lord protect is against this terrible time (his anger).
Now it's been hard on the world, people are persecuted for their faith, there are disasters, diseases, etc. But that's nothing to God's wrath, he will end up pouring over this world.
For whom his anger is determined?
God tells us through his word, in several places:
Revelation chapter 3, verse 10
"Because you have the words of steadfast patience keeps me going, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation that upon the whole world will come, that are trying to dwell on the earth "
Revelation Chapter 16, 1 +2
" And I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels. "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth
And the first went and poured out his bowl on the earth! and there was an evil and bad ulcer on the people who had the mark of the beast and the worshiped his image. "
second Thess. 2, 11 +12
"Therefore God sends them the power of seduction, so that they should believe a lie,
be addressed so that all who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. "
The Wrath of God in the Tribulation, is intended for those who do not believe in him, that they noticed him to be. It is not meant for us, the Jesus we already have in the heart. I believe that God before it is so hard is to be hollow.
I can prove it no one said it's like a confidence in my heart that result has in his study of the word!
