Yes. We do. And I will be ready no matter when. And I think an understanding of both perspectives is important, perhaps even a critical matter of life or death.

So, agree or not, I’d still appreciate knowing how it is you come to call the entire tribulation “wrath” when there are neither Seals of Wrath, not Trumpets of Wrath, but ONLY Bowls of Wrath.

The stark clarity of that unique designation isn’t to be dismissed; it’s been made intentionally, because the Bowls are not merely the culmination of a crescendo of wrath, but something notably different in character and purpose from the Seals and Trumpets.

It is Jesus opening the seals. God has used agents to deliver His wrath in the past. The keys to understanding it is the wrath of God throughout the entire seven years is revealed with the terms of what is happening prior to Rev 6:16, when the pagans come to realize that the wrath has arrived (written in the Greek using the aorist indicative 'elethen' meaning arrived well before they realized it). With the first seal the key words are given which characterize God's wrath: war, famine, pestilence.

A word searhc in Isaiah, Zachariah, and Ezekiel, to name three, will reaveals how God sent His wrath on Israel. And sometimes the word 'wrath' is used and sometimes not, but war and famine and pestilence are the hallmarks of God's wrath upon the Hebrews.
