When Does The Tribulation Begin???

Question:   When does the tribulation begin?  after the Rapture

Answer:     The tribulation is the seven (7) year time period following the Rapture.

                   Daniel 9:27  informs us that antichrist will sign a peace agreement with Israel,

                  and when he does it will begin the tribulation.


                  I  Thessalonians 1:10            ----------               Revelation  Chapters 6-19

                  I Thessalonians 5:9                                           Matthew Chapter 24

 The rapture is an eschatological term used by certain Christians, particularly within branches of American evangelicalism, referring to a purported end time event when all Christian believers–living and dead–will rise into the sky and join Christ.

 Some adherents believe this event is predicted and described in Paul's First Epistle to the Thessalonians in the Bible, where he uses the Greek harpazo (ἁρπάζω), meaning to snatch away or seize. 

Though it has been used differently in the past, the term is now often used by certain believers to distinguish this particular event from the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to Earth mentioned in Second Thessalonians, Gospel of Matthew, First Corinthians, and Revelation, usually viewing it as preceding the Second Coming and followed by a thousand year millennial kingdom.
