God’s people are not under God’s wrath- the tribulation is a pouring out of God’s wrath on the ungodly- the bible states as much
With all respects, Bob, RE: your post 69, the History Channel is not the place you should go to get to the bottom line on this issue.
True, God’s people are not appointed to God’s wrath, but tribulation from men is not God’s wrath. God’s people have had to endure persecution from men all along. Read Acts, Paul was persecuted by the Jews at every step. Was it the wrath of God? Of course not, likewise the persecutions by the pagans and the Papists.
The tribulation is not the wrath of God, the wrath of God is poured out on the ungodly at the end of the tribulation...and on those who have taken the mark of the beast. Hence, if you do take the mark, having been deceived by the pretrib rapture doctrine, you will not be the “God’s people” you were referring to.
God’s people are people of truth above all, the pretrib rapture is not the truth, but a damnable lie.

NO!
It is the pouring out of Satan’s wrath on the saints.
The pouring out of God’a wrath comes immediately after the trib, and the resurrection of YHVH’s elect. It lasts ten days, and is called the Bowl Judgements.
