I’m disturbed that pretrib rapture promoters like to chop contexts in half. For example, they read pretrib into I Thess. 4:17 and ignore that it’s tied to the posttrib “destruction” of the wicked in I Thess. 5:3. And they read pretrib into I Cor. 15:52 and ignore that it’s tied to vs. 54 (a quote of Isa. 25:8 which all agree is Israel’s posttrib resurrection).

How do you tie in post tribulation destruction into, 1Thessolonians 5:3; "For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape."?
I just don't see how you get that from that verse. I'm not saying that it doesn't I just don't see it. Please explain.
