Some people think we are already in the prophesied Tribulation period. They need to study their Bible more to discern that that is not the case. To begin with, the Rapture of the Church has not yet occurred, and that must happen before the Tribulation because the Lord's people are not appointed to wrath.
"Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him." - Romans 5:9
"For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ." - 1 Thessalonians 5:9
The above two Scriptures tell us how to escape the 7-year Tribulation. We need to be followers of Jesus Christ; we need to be born-again (John 3:16). We need to repent of our sins, pray and ask God for forgiveness, and put our faith and trust in Jesus as our Savior, Lord, and Master. We must put God and Jesus first in our lives.
"Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved." - Acts 16:31
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." John 14:6
Once saved by faith in Jesus, you will be raptured to be with the Lord in heaven sometime soon before the 7-year Tribulation occurs and will be in heaven while the Tribulation is taking place on the earth. What a blessed hope ! (Titus 2:13). God is loving and merciful to His people.
Following is a video featuring Gary Stearman and Bob Ulrich of prophecywatchers.com. It deals with myths of the tribulation, and gives great insight into Scriptures concerning the Tribulation and answers questions such as "The reasons why the Tribulation has to happen." They also discuss a new DVD they are offering which is about a girl who wakes up one day and finds herself in the Tribulation period.
If you read the Book of Revelation in the Bible, you will discern that the Tribulation is full of God's wrath and judgment on the ungodly left on the earth after the true believers in Christ are raptured to heaven. You do not want to go through the horrors of the time of "Jacob's Trouble" (Jeremiah 30:7). Turn in faith to Jesus Christ now before it is too late !
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.: - Ephesians 2:8-9
