There is no pre-tribulation rapture.
You’re in the tribulation right now.
When the prophets wrote during old and new testament times, their world was the middle-east and the surrounding areas. That was the known world. We were considered the isles of the sea.
Rev 20:
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast,

Your founding serial adulterer prophet (Joseph Smith) missed reading and understanding The Revelation.

I hasn’t started yet .
What is happening in the middle east is a sneak peak while the beast nations sort their stuff out before they rise .
Prepping is good but if you don’t know what you believe and why you believe it you won’t survive.
