I am interested in the truth. Please show where the tribulation starts and this 7 year tribulation you are talking about. Daniel 9 shows a 70th week and then Christ is cut off in the middle of the week leaving 3.5 years. Where is the full 7 that is left?
As for the tribulation anything before the sun and moon going dark is the tribulation after the sun and moon go dark is God's wrath as stated in Matthew 24:29. The sun and moon going dark is a clear indication throughout the OT and NT of where God's wrath starts.
Quoting: Achduke7 Christ being cut off symbolizes Satan falling from Heaven and no longer ever having entrance to Heaven where he takes bodily autonomy of the Anti-Christ and in his wrath, goes after the last remnant of God’s people and will force all to receive his mark and worship him which will be mid-point of the 7-year Tribulation.
Daniel 12:11 gives us the exact number of days which are 1290 when the bride is removed (daily sacrifice) and the abomination of desolation will be set up in the temple (the mark of the beast) which is mid-point of the 7-year Tribulation.
At that time, Satan is finally cast out of Heaven for good where he will force his mark on all inhabitants of earth and demand worship as all other gods of every religion including the one and only God through Jesus Christ will no longer be able to be followed or worshipped and the penalty for refusing to bow down and worship the Anti-Christ which is Satan himself will be death.
“And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Daniel 12:11
We as the church are supposed to live our lives daily as a sacrifice. We are supposed to die daily, deny our flesh and pick up our cross daily. We know the body of Christ is the daily sacrifice because it’s confirmed in scripture-
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.
Romans 12:1
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
1 Corinthians 15:31
Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.
Luke 9:23
We as the body of Christ who are the daily sacrifice must be removed before the 7-year Tribulation can begin. The removal of Christ’s bride is the event that starts the last week of Daniel’s 70 week prophecy where the restrainer is removed so as the Anti-Christ will be revealed on the world-stage (not yet inhabited by Satan as this takes place mid-way through the 7-year Tribulation) and peace and safety will be falsely proclaimed across the world after the bride is removed and the world is formed into the One world order beast system.
The so-called “elites” know the pre-tribulation Rapture is biblical as scripture proves it and they are eagerly awaiting for Christ’s bride to be gone. Things will seem nice for a time during the first half of the 7-year Tribulation until mid-way through it when Satan is cast out of Heaven and literal hell will unfold.
The Rapture happens in the blink of an eye and marks the beginning of the 7-year Tribulation. Conversely, people will see the Coming of Christ on the clouds in His second coming and all the armies of the world will be prepared to war against Him. This is yet another stark difference between the removal of Christ’s bride for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb which is a joyous time and the Second Coming of Christ in judgment which will be terror for those on earth. Paul says he shouldn’t even have to write to us as we’ll know in our spirit in these last days the season we’ll be in and that season is now, right this very second. The Rapture can happen at any moment.
But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.
1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11
