Many believes in pre-tribulation Rapture, so they don’t worry about the Great Tribulation, because they believe that they’ll be raptured before the Great Tribulation. So they don’t prepare for it and they’re not worried about the Great Tribulation.
But what’s perplexing is, those who do not believe in the pre-tribulation Rapture; they say there’s no exemption from the Great Tribulation; everybody has to go through the Great Tribulation. So my question is this, then what this verse means?
So this is revelation 3: 10 “because you have kept my command to persevere I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world to test those who dwell on the earth”
So he’s saying the test that comes upon the whole world to test those who dwell on the earth, this is none other than the Great Tribulation. And it says Jesus will keep those who kept his command to persevere, he will keep him from that hour of trial. So, many pre-tribulation Rapture Believers believe that this verse means the Rapture, but if you don’t believe in the pre-tribulation Rapture then what would this verse mean? So you can’t just keep ignoring this verse and keep saying there is no exemption.
So what Jesus means with this verses, the answer is in the Book of Revelation chapter 12: 6 “then the woman fled Into the Wilderness where she has a place prepared by God that they should feed her there 1,260 days. So the woman is the woman who bore the child with the iron scepter who is Jesus, so the woman who bore Jesus is Israel, so this woman is Israel. And it says God will let the woman flee into Wilderness during this 1,260 days, that’s 3 and 1/2 years so that’s talking about the great tribulation. And it says God has a place prepared for this Israel in the wilderness to feed her during the Great Tribulation so God has a place prepared to protect Israel from the Antichrist and feed them there.
So likewise not just for the Israel God has a place prepared for the Gentiles too during the Great tribulation to protect them and feed them just like Israel. And God did the same thing in the the Old Testament times. So when God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah God made Lot to flee the city into Wilderness so he told him to flee to the mountain and also God told Noah to build an ark to protect them from the flood. So what happened at the Sodom and Gomorra, it symbolizes a lot about the coming tribulation which comes to punish those lukewarm Christians who live a sinful life in these City systems so God will punish all these cities which is filled with a sinful lifestyle, and those who keep God’s command to persevere God will lead them out from the city to the Wilderness because this all this city systems will go under the rule of the Antichrist.
So you can’t just ignore this verses by Jesus and keep saying that there will be no exemption, you just have to endure it. And God is looking for those who will feed the Christians during the Great Tribulation and protect them. So Jesus said who are these faithful and wise servants who will Feed My People I will give him all that I possess? So God is looking for the faithful and wise servants who will protect and feed the people of God during the Great Tribulation and that’s Jesus’s promise. I wish you blessings from the Lord.
