Well, I guess that’s one interpretation.
Search the Scriptures Clara and remember to open your mind to this Scripture verse,
II Timothy 3:
...persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
12Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
13But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
The problem with the pre-tribulation groupies is that there is no Scriptrual basis for a pre-tribe rapture. On the contrary, Scriptures tell us that tribulation is a good thing as it will show the true colors of those who claim to be of YHVH but are not, hence the taking of the sign of the beast. No more tares invading the wheat! Halleluyah!
