“The Great Escape before The Great Tribulation”
Instead of comforting, there is something theologically scary about that repeated statement.
Fear of tribulation as motive to trust in Jesus surpassed fear of hell—stated clearly by not mentioning hell over tribulation.
Often repeated logic concludes rapture before Tribulation, because church is not mentioned after the first three chapters of Revelation, when the horrors are described in detail.
Likewise using logic, why should Christians read a significant part of the Bible that does not apply to us because we won’t be here ?
Every time someone offered to voluntarily address that question, the answer was a lame non-answer, with a rush back to more familiar territory, very much like the pattern of seasoned politicians.
