The Great Tribulation & Time Of Trouble
I) When Michael Stands At God's Temple In Heavenly Mount Zion (Daniel 12:1; Matthew 24:15), He will cause God's earthly sacrifice and oblation to cease and be taken away (Daniel 12:1-13; Matthew 24:15-21; Daniel 9:25-27). Jesus Christ's Servants will be raptured out of the Great Tribulation and out of the Grave to meet Michael "in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:14-17)", or on the Mountain of God (Isaiah 2:1-5). This Mountain of God is the Jerusalem that exists above planet Earth (Galatians 4:26). It is Heavenly Mount Zion (Hebrews 12:22; Joel 2:1-32). It is the Mother (Galatians 4:26) Ship or Mother (plane) Wheel (ship) of God. This Mountain Wheel Plane of God is Biblically associated with the clouds of Heaven (Exodus 24:14-18; Matthew 24:30-35), the tempetuous/temptest wind (Job 38:1; John 3:1-16), the fiery chariots (2 Kings 6:17), and Angels of flames (of God)(Psalm 104:1-6). Jesus' servants who are raptured are called God's bread, God's sacrifice, the earth's light (Matthew 5:14), and hope (Acts 27:20). As Christ's servants are taking flight (Matthew 24:15-20) (flee (Mark 13:14), escape) into the Mountain ship (Mother Plane Wheel) of God (Read Ezekiel Chapters 1 and 2), planet earth's lights will go out (Matthew 24:29; Acts 27:20). These Christian servants of Jesus are the light of the world (Matthew 5:15). Their rapture, will cause Earth to become totally dark (Matthew 24:29. Just as in the days of Egypt's Pharaoh (Exodus 10:4-15; 21; Exodus 11:5).
Jesus told us not to look to human governments, wars, or the Middle East for direction (Matthew 24:6). Jerusalem Above is our Mother (Galatians 4:26). We should Look Up for Salvation (Luke 21:27-28). Jerusalem on earth is only a "symbol" of God's Heavenly Jerusalem.
Jerusalem Above is also known as Mount Sion (Mount Zion), or Heavenly Jerusalem. Where YHWH's host (Angelic Army) exist. Hebrews 12:22 "But ye are come unto Mount Sion, and unto the City of the Living God, the Heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels"
It is into this "Mountain" that Raptured and Resurrected servants of God "take flight" (flee) when the Beast "Stands" in God's Temple (Isaiah 2:1-4; Matthew 24:15-16, 26). Remember that the Beast "takes away" or causes God's Sacrifice (daily bread) to cease (Daniel 9:25-27).
God's Heavenly Mount Zion is also called the Wheel. Please review these:
Psa 83:13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind (God's judgment is the Wind Job 38:1; John 3:8).
Eze 1:15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one (John 17:17-21) wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
Eze 1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their work [was] like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one (John 17:17-21) likeness (Genesis 1:26-27): and their appearance and their work [was] as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
Eze 10:9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one (John 17:17-21) wheel by one cherub (John 17:17-21; Genesis 1:26-27; Psalm 104:2-4), and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels [was] as the colour of a beryl stone (God the Father is the Rock Deuteronomy 32:4; Jesus the Son is the Stone).
Eze 10:10 And [as for] their appearances, they four had one (John 17:17-21) likeness (Genesis 1:26-27), as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
II) God will then Change, Transfigure, or Regenerate these individuals into Glorified Beings. The Change to Glorification Rapture of Christ's Tribulation Servants will make them Spirit (John 4:24). All of this will happen in a moment of time (1 Corinthians 15:52; Matthew 19:28; Matthew 17:1-15; Exodus 24:14-18; 2 Corinthians 3:10-13)). Biblically speaking, it will be day 1260 of the Great Tribulation (Daniel 12:1-13).
These Raptured, Regenerated, Glorified Servants of Jesus Christ will then be Spirit Angels (Matthew 22:30; Psalm 104:1-4; John 4:24; Matthew 19:28). They fulfill Jesus' prophecy that Angels would Ascend to the Son of Man. Any one who goes to Heavenly Mount Zion is a Son, Daughter, or Child of God (Revelation 21:7; Romans Chapter 8; John 1:51).
These Ascending (Revelation 11:12) Angels become the feet and hands of God (Revelation 11:11-12). These feet will be used to "crush", "smash", pulverize (turn to powder/dust), and tread the Israel remnant (Revelation 11:13) (remaining on Earth during the Time Of Trouble)(Genesis 3:15-16; Romans 16:20). Israel is called the crooked serpent, snake, and viper during God's Judgmental Time of Trouble upon them (Luke 3:3-7; Matthew 23:33; Revelation 12:1-12; John 8:32-44; Revelation 2:9)). These newly Regenerated Angels will Descend upon Israel who will be left on Earth. Jacob's (Israel's) Time of Trouble begins on day 1260 of the Great Tribulation (Daniel 12:1-13). A darkened Israel on Earth will be attacked by these Descending Angels (Angelic) "locust" beast/lions of God (Joel 2:1-32; Psalm 104:20-21; 1 Peter 5:8; Exodus 10-4-21). When God raptures (takes) Christ's servants up out of the Great Tribulation it will symbolically be "waters" drying up. These raptrued servants will become Kings (with Christ, the WAY John 14:6) of the East (Sun/Son of God) (Revelation 16:12). These Regenerated Angels will then Descend back to Earth-the Dry Ground/Land (Gen 1:10; Ex 14:21-22) to Prepare (Rev 16:12) Israel (Jews/Jerusalem) for her Marriage (Revelation Chapter 19). She is God's Bride/Wife (Rev 21:1-5). She is His Woman (Revelation 12:1-End; 1 Kings 17:1-10). This Preparation is the War Of Armageddon, for Jacob/Israel (Hebrews) Rev 16:16.
Armageddon is Israel (Jews) Preparation to Become Jesus Christ's Bride. He is Her Husband and Bridegroom. This Preparation is God's War with, Judgment Upon, and Marriage with Israel. The Descending Angels perform God's Work upon Israel. God allowing Satan to attack both Job and Israel indicate God's Work to Redemption (Rev 19; Rev 21:1-5; Luke 21:22,28,36-38; Job 1:1-10; Rev 12:1-End)
III) The descendants of Jacob/Israel will be left (remnant, remaining) in Total Darkness on planet earth (Darkness is a symbol of God's Judgment). (Matthew 24:29; Psalm 104:20-21; Acts 27:20).
IV) Jesus promised that Angels would Ascend and Descend upon the Son of Man. God is the Man of the Bible (Exodus 15:3), and Michael the Archangel of the Lord is the Beast (Michael's name means "Who Is Like Unto The Lord" The Beast Read Revelation 13:4) Exodus 14:19-20; Exodus 15:11.
Do you notice how Michael and the Beast both stand up causing Great Tribulation and the Time of Trouble (Daniel 12:1; Matthew 24:15, 21)?
This is Blasphemy and an Abomination that man should become a Son of God or equal with God (John 10:30-36).
Without the Blasphemy of the Beast (Michael the Angel of the Lord), no human could enter Heaven! Amazing!
V) But the Hard part comes when those Newly Regenerated Angels Descend back to Earth to Judge a Darkened Israel (Armageddon). These Descending Angels are the Flood and Rain of God's Judgment (Genesis 6:1-16; Matthew 24: 31, 36-39). Read 1 Kings Chapter 17 (1 Kings 17:1-End). Did you notice how Elijah (who comes again before Jesus Comes again) visited a woman (God's wife Israel Revelation 12:1-End), and her son (any one who goes to Heaven Revelation 21:7) during a No Rain (or no flood) judgment period? This period symbolized the coming period of Israel's judgmental trouble prior to the downpour rain, flood of those regenerated descending angels (Matthew 24:27-47; Genesis 6:1-End).
Be sure to read 1 Kings 17:1-End. Did you notice how Elijah took the woman's son up into a "secret" chamber (Matthew 24:26) (Mother Wheel Mount Zion) and healed the boy, raising this son from the dead (the rapture)? Elijah's bed, rest, chamber symbolized God's Sabbath Rest, which is the Mother Ship Plane (1 Kings 17:19-24; Hebrews 3:1-End; Hebrews 4:1-10; Acts 27:27-44). After Elijah resurrected (raptured) the woman's son, they then descended back again to the woman (Israel). God's Sabbath is on Nisan 14. It symbolized His Sabbath Rest, and the Passover into Wilderness Space (the Sea). Acts 27:1-44; Exodus 12:6).
The Angels will Ascend and Descend Becoming the Son (Revelation 21:7) of Man (Exodus 15:3; Matthew 24:37; John 1:51).
Read 1Kings 18:1-End. 1 Kings 18:44. Look what happens right before Elijah calls that raining flood (those future Regenerated Angels back down from Heavenly Mount Zion Hebrews 12:22). Notice how on the seventh time (seven is the Biblical number for God's Sabbath rest (Genesis 2:3; Hebrews 3:1-15)), that a little cloud (God calls those entering Heaven the "little" flock (Luke 12:32), and Biblical clouds symbolize God's Angels (Psalm 104:3-4) arises out of the sea. Do you notice how God's Angelic Cloud, this Son of Man (Matthew 24:30-47) comes out of the sea? This is the same location where Leviathan dwells (Psalm 104:25-26), and is the same location where the Beast rises up (Ascends) out of (Revelation 13:1). The Biblical "sea", which is sometimes spelled "see", symbolizes outer space where God's Heavenly Mount Zion (the Mother Wheel) dwells above the Earth (Hebrews 12:22; Psalm 83:13-18).
Notice how this small cloud, which came out of the sea, looks like a man's hand. God is the Elohim. And God said to the Elohim, "Let US make Man in OUR likeness/image". God is the Man of the Bible (Genesis 1:26-27; Exodus 15:3-11). Thus, anyone who is raptured into Heaven is Regenerated and becomes God's Son (Revelation 21:7). This Son is the full Image or Likeness of God Elohim. This Son is the Angelic Hand of God (Job 1:1-10; Job 2:1-10; Genesis 6:1-10). This Son is Spirit (Psalm 104:1-4; John 4:24).
We have seen how the Beast, Leviathan, the Sea, and these Regenerated "clouds" of Heaven will all play a part in Judging Israel during the Time of Trouble. They will also play a part In Israel's Redemption (redeem) when Israel accepts Jesus as Her Messiah.
After Elijah's "small cloud" ariseth (arose, Ascended), look what happens next. Keep reading 1 Kings 8:44).
King Ahab (who was symbolizing God the King) orders the Preparation to begin. The Preparation is the Time of Trouble upon Israel. Israel will be crushed (prepared, made ready) by God's Angelic "Foot Army" until she accepts Jesus and becomes His Bride (Revelation 19:5-21; Revelation 21:1-5).
1 Kings 18:44. King Ahab (who is symbolizing God) orders the chariot (God's Regenerated Angelic Army Psalm 104:1-4) to "get thee down" (descend back upon Earth John 1:51).
King Ahab gave this command so that the "rain" would not cease (the descending "flood" angels upon the "time of trouble" nation of Israel Matthew 24:30-47; Genesis 6:1-10).
Read 1 Kings 18:45-46. The Heaven is black! Yes, during Israel's "Time of Trouble" Judgment, the Earth will be dark/black. Heavenly Mount Zion will also be black as Her Judge. She will suffer the same Celestial Judgment as did Egypt, Sodom, and even Jesus as He Hung for our Sins (Book of Exodus, Genesis chapters 18 and 19, the Gospel, and Revelation 11:8).
Read 1 Kings 18:45-46. Notice the clouds and wind are "black". We've already studied God's Mother Jerusalem (Heavenly Mount Zion), and how God "travels" in these cloud Angels, and tempest wind judgments.
Notice the "great rain". Sounds a lot like the Great Multitude (Revelation 7:9, 17; Revelation 19:6; Revelation 1:10-15).
Read 1 Kings 18:46. Yes the Hand of God will be Elijah or with Elijah during Israel's "Time of Trouble" judgment. All Heavenly, Regenerated (Matthew 19:28) Angels will be God's Sons (Revelation 21:7; Job 1:1-10; Genesis 6:1-10). Angels are The Spirit of God. They are His Hand, His Network (Psalm 104:1-4; John 4:24).
VI) Elijah also was "taken up" into God's Angelic Chariots. Elijah was Regenerated at that time which is why Elijah and Moses were at the Transfiguration Mountain (God's Kingdom) Matthew 17:1-15. Thy Kingdom Come. Mount Zion Jerusalem, the Mother Wheel will Land on a Relit, and Very Bright Planet Earth on Day 1335 of the Time of Trouble. All will see God's Regenerated Cloud Army (Elohim Gods) and Mother Ship (Jerusalem Above) entering Earth's skies on Day 1335. (Psalm 104:20-21; Acts 27:20-34; Acts 28:1-8; John 10:30-36; Matthew 6:9-13; Matthew 23:39; Rev 21:1-5; Matthew 24:27-30; Rev 1:7; Rev 21:1-5; Dan 12:11-13). The remaining nation of Israel will be praising, "Blessed Is He Who Comes In YAHWEH's Name as these "clouds" approach (Matthew 23:39; Matthew 24:30-31). Moses was taken up into God's Cloud unto God's Mountain of His Presence. Moses was Glorified, Transfigured, Regenerated at that time (Exodus 24:14-18; 2 Corinthians 3: 10, 13; Matthew 17:1-End).
Elijah will return to Earth with these Newly Regenerated Servants of Christ to plague a darkened Israel, and Prepare Her for Her Marriage to God! The Preparation is punishing her, Judging Her, Avenging God (Luke 21:22), and making her say, "Blessed is He Who Comes in YHWH's name (Matthew 23:39).
VII) When God allowed Satan to attack Job, this event prophetically pointed to God allowing Satan to attack Israel during the Time of Trouble. God "judging" Jesus on the Cross was also symbolic of how God would judge Israel during her Time of Trouble. This is why they said, "He (Jesus) calleth Elijah".
Israel's Time of Trouble begins on day 1260 of the Great Tribulation and ends on day 1290 (a lunar month. God uses the moon to symbolize Israel and Satan). The lights go out (Day 1260), and the Regenerated Angelic Lion(s) start roaring (Psalm 104:20-21; Luke 21:25; 1 Peter 5:8; Revelation 12:1-17).
VIII) After the 30 day Revenge Attack upon Israel, the nation will repent (Day 1290) and calls out to Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah (Savior). This will be day 1290 of the Great Tribulation, which is day 30 of Israel's Time of Trouble (Daniel 12:1-13). Notice how God uses "Baal (the Moon God)" and the Moon (in feminine gender) to symbolize Israel (Mark 13:24; Revelation 21:1-5). This is why the Moon turns to Blood. This "turning" symbolizes Israel finally redeeming Herself by accepting Jesus Christ, Yeshua, Son of Yahweh. We all must "turn to" or accept the Blood of God the Son (Acts 20:28; John 6:53-54; Daniel 12:11; 1 Kings 18:12-46; Mark 13:24; Revelation 12:1-5; Joel 2:1-32). In fact, READ ALL OF Joel Chapter 2. This chapter talks about the Trumpet Voice of God (Michael 1 Thessalonians 4:16), Mount Zion (God's Mother Ship or Mother Wheel), Blood (the acceptance of Jesus and the Regeneration Changing "turning"), the Locust (Regenerated Raptured Christians Who Attack Israel during the Time of Trouble), and many other Bible symbols discussed in this article.

In the traditional sense of 'tribulation' - The loss of my home was a great tribulation to me and my family. In the theological sense of 'tribulation' - The 'Tribulation' is a theological invention of John Nelson Darby, the nineteenth-century founder of the Plymouth Brethren, but is now accepted as fact by millions of Christians.
Yes it does and it will.The church will be taken out of the world before Gods great judgment falls upon it.Another answer:Many Christians believe that the "rapture" is false doctrine based on misinterpretations of Scripture, and that the tribulation is already well underway.
Jesus did not mention a single person who will miss tribulation in their lifetime. In fact He mentioned that His followers would have tribulation in their lives just by being His followers. Trials and tribulations are a fact of life. If you are speaking of the "Great Tribulation", persons who die before that time comes about will miss that terrible time and some Christians believe that they will be taken to heaven before that time comes.
Great affliction, trial, or distress, suffering, An experience that tests one's endurance, patience, or faith.
The Tribulation is a seven-year period in which great disasters occur and MANY people die. Post-trib people believe this happens before the Rapture, when God calls the saved to heaven instantly. The more Biblical argument, Pre-trib is that the Rapture will take place before the Tribulation.

There are varying views on this subject, but I believe the Scripture teaches a pre-Tribulation rapture for these three reasons: Rahab was rescued by the spies when they went to Jericho. This is a type of Christians being saved before trouble comes Lot, Abraham's nephew, was saved from Sodom before destruction came there, another type of the rapture. Also, Paul said in one of his letters, "God has not appointed us to wrath" And wrath is what the tribulation will be about. You have to make up lyour own mind on the subject. Whenever it happens, the point is that you are ready spiritually. If not, now is the time to make sure.

Absolutley not.
