The tribulations happen in the last days, the raised up or caught up John 6:39,40,44; and 1Thes.4:15-17; is at the last day.
DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT AT THE LAST DAY IS?
Rev.6:9-11[This shows some going before others and waiting on the others];
Rev.20:1-6[Is this the last day of day seven of Gen.2:2,4; and Heb.4:1-12?]; If so then they go all the way to being caught up at the last day of the world of Satan whrn he is put in the pit];
1Cor.15:22-28,51-53; this takes care of the whole of it.
Satan has 6,130 years from Eden until Rev.20:1-6; Matt.24:3,7,14,15,22,36-38[Only God knows the day and the hour];
Eph.3:21; The new heavens and the new earth with in the world of Jesus will never end. 2 Pet.3:13; Rev.21:1-5;

PLEASE READ YOUR HISTORY! The rapture is not a part of the Christian Faith!
There is no rapture. What is meant by the term in modern times is a lie and it comes out of the works of a 19th century American named John Darby (look him up and you will find that he was into occult practices). The doctrine of a secret rapture was first conceived by John Darby of the Plymouth Brethren in 1827 It has nothing to do with how Paul and his followers understood what he wrote. Even a loose understanding of "rapture" is virtually unheard of in the writings of the Church Fathers.
If the tribulation comes during our life times, the idea of the rapture is going to have many Christians turn away and apostatize. Christians will suffer greatly before the end, and if you think you are going to get raptured, but end up suffering, you will assume that Christianity is wrong.

the bible never uses the term Rapture. as far as the coming of Christ the Bible teaches that no man know that only the Father does. But with the way the world is His coming is not far off. Some believe ther will be a rapture and 7 years of tribbulation but this is a false assumption that many christian leaders have been teaching for several years now When Christ come thatis it eather you are ready or you re not no second chance. So now is the time to get right with God an prepare yur heart to meet Him

I think it is supposed to come before the tribulation. People who believe will be raptured up and the ones who don't will be "left behind" for the tribulation period.

Christ will return prior to the millennium,thousand yr. period,prior to the seven yr period known as the great tribulation(Dan 9:27;Rev.7:14;11:2) then the rapture. The church will not go thru the tribulation.

The bible scriptures refer to the second coming...rapture is a word used by people who follow the teachings of man...we will meet up in the air with Christ at his second coming....the bible doesn't refer to third and forth comings...The second coming of Christ the time of Armageddon is the end of the world as we know it...and Christ will reign on the earth for 1000 years the Millennium.

That's just too hard to figure out. I hope it happens before, I can live with it if it happens in the middle, there will be no need for it in the end. Either way-Jesus is the key--dont forget that.

We don't know when it will be.
Read 1 Thessalonians 4: 16 - 5: 11

Great Bible teachers and preachers have tried to guess this for decades if not centuries. I know of one very popular, but deceased woman of God that thought it was coming in the 60s. You can't guess at it, you just can't. I have more to say, but it isn't important right now.
