Do you even understand what the tribulation is all about?

It’s God’s judgment on unbelievers.

It’s not a picnic, nor is it the responsibility of believers to make sure they’re taken care of after the rapture happens.

Our job is to present the gospel to them so they are saved and don’t have to go through the tribulation.

But if they choose to reject, it’s on their heads.

Why are you demanding Christians prepare for the rapture to take care of those left behind? Why are you putting that burden on them.

You are postulating all kinds of scenarios which may or may not happen and I am not interested in hypotheticals nor wasting my time on any of the improbable scenarios you are concocting.

They can have whatever is in my house.

“Why are you demanding Christians prepare for the rapture to take care of those left behind? Why are you putting that burden on them.”

Because if I believed the rapture and thought I was going to be raptured, I would not want to put others at risk by my rapture. I guess I care about the unsaved or whatever and don’t want to make it harder for them. I consider this a Christian sentiment.

of the 15 uses of the word "tribulation" in the NT, 10 times refers to tribulation of the church, 4 times to the end time, and once (!) to the world! Perhaps you should ponder John 16:33. "In this world, you will have tribulation..."

There are two tribulations... The first one is 'deception'. Matthew 24:4; Mark 13:5; Luke 21:8. And the world is up to its eye-balls in deception. Paul says Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God,

that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12

For we wrestle NOT against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this world, against *spiritual* wickedness in high places. ........

To escape the first tribulation one must know what the deception literally is.
