>>>We know that many Christians will be martyred during the Great Tribulation, and we know that they’ll be supernaturally protected from some of the plagues (Rev. 9:4 and Rev. 16:2, for example.) Perhaps that’s how Christ “keeps” them through those trials?<<<
I believe the Great Tribulation occurred in the generation of the disciples, like Jesus said it would. But as you mentioned, lots of Christians were martyred, and over 1.1 million Jews were killed or starved to death in Jerusalem, alone.

If that is your belief, then you are not pre-millennial.
This Religion Forum thread is a “premillennial caucus” meaning if you are not currently, actively premillennialist then do not post on this thread.
