Written as if Biblicist Christianity only exists in North America. Written as if millions of Christians through the Church Age have not already endured mass suffering and very deep persecutions. Written as if there are not even now millions of Christians suffering under persecution. Written as if Chinese, Vietnamese, and North Korean Christians could never believe in a Pre-tribulation Removal of the Body of Christ from the scene.

The purpose of Daniel's Seventieth Week has nothing at all to do or say about the suffering of the Church of this dispensation. The Tribulation has to do with DANIEL's people, ISRAEL, and the City where Jehovah has chosen to place His Name.

No, it’s written about the pre-Trib stories that arose in the 19th century and led to the Jehovah’s Witnesses, pre-Trib rapturists and Mormons is pretty exclusive to this neck of the woods.

Millions of Christians are suffering under persecution and WERE also suffering under persecution. Going backwards chronologically

> the Islamic state,
> the nazi attack on christianity (as the “Jewish savior religion”)
> the armenian genocide
> the mexican persecution of christian
> the french revolution attack on christianity
> The japanese genocide of christians
> Tipu Sultan’s slaughter of Christians
> Tamerlane (Timur-e-Lang’s) genocide of millions of Christians in Iran, Georgia and central Asia in the 14th century
> The slaughter of christians by Caliph Muawiyah

etc. etc - right back to the biggest attack which kille dthe largest % of christians - the persecution by Nero along with the Pharisees in the time 55 to 70 AD

Yes, the Tribulation haD to do with Christians - from 60 AD to 69 AD when they were persecuted by Nero and by the Pharisees.

The book of revelations writes about the destruction of Jerusalem in 69 AD - when it was utterly torn down (the western wall is the western wall of the foundations, not of the temple itself)

Christians remembered Jesus words where He told them to run for the hills :) and not to wait

All the Christians in Jerusalem ran before the siege and not a single Christian died in the siege
