Many people have varying thoughts concerning the rapture. It is my personal belief that the Jesus will call His bride home prior to the tribulation leaving those who have not called upon His name to deal with the tribulation. Speaking of tribulation there are several viewpoints concerning this too. Will Jesus call us home before, during, or after the tribulation? If you want to dig in deep and really understand this point may I suggest that you either get with me off-line or simply take a look at this resource (Calvary Distinctives). I believe you will find the explanation enlightening and informative.
