Your post brought a smile of ‘yup, that’s speakin’ the Gospel in the shortest sentence’. Would you have the verses rewritten? ‘Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by The Word of God’ to read ‘Faith cometh by fear, and fear by the wrath of God’ ... there will be a vast number saved during the Trib, but it will be from fear, unlike the Saving faith during the Church Age. What Jesus said to Thomas following the resurrection comes to mind at the end of this Age.
Because you have kept my word about patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth. — Rev 3:10
