Yes, there is in a particular theology invented in 1830 by John Nelson Darby, a British evangelical preacher and founder of the Plymouth Brethren. This theology is also the basis of the best-selling Left Behind series and the movie of the same name. However, the seven-year tribulation was never conceived before the nineteenth century, and has no genuine biblical support.

Barbara R. Rossing (The Rapture Exposed) says that the Rapture has its origins in the nineteenth century beginning, according to one critic, with a young girl's vision. In 1830, in Port Glasgow, Scotland, fifteen-year-old Margaret MacDonald attended a healing service. There, she was said to have seen a vision of a two-stage return of Jesus Christ. The story of her vision was adopted and amplified by John Nelson Darby, a British evangelical preacher and founder of the Plymouth Brethren. .
The belief that Jesus will come again was not new, and Christians have always taught that Jesus will return to earth and that believers should live in anticipation of his second coming. Darby's new teaching was that Christ would return twice. The first return would be in secret, to "Rapture" his church out of the world and up to heaven. Christ would return a second time after seven years of global tribulation for non-believers, to establish a Jerusalem-based kingdom on earth.

When John Nelson Darby, a British evangelical preacher and founder of the Plymouth Brethren, invented the concept of the 'Rapture' in 1830, he definitely had pre-tribulation in mind. The belief that Jesus will come again was not new, and Christians have always taught that Jesus will return to earth and that believers should live in anticipation of his second coming. Darby's new teaching was that Christ would return twice. The first return would be in secret, to "Rapture" his church out of the world and up to heaven, pre-tribulation or before the Tribulation. Christ would return a second time after seven years of global tribulation for non-believers, to establish a Jerusalem-based kingdom on earth. However, some modern proponents of the Tribulation saw what they felt to be flaws in Darby's scheme and delayed the Rapture, either to midway through the Tribulation, or even post-tribulation.
So, 'pre-tribulation' could be considered to place the Rapture before the seven years, 'mid-tribulation' after three and a half years but before the 'Great Tribulation', and post-tribulation places the Rapture after the seven years.

Will the church have to go through the tribulation?
The 'tribulation' is a fringe notion largely developed in the nineteenth century by John Nelson Darby, a British evangelical preacher and founder of the Plymouth Brethren. It is not a doctrine of most of the major Christian denominations, so on that view the church will not experience the tribulation.

Will the rapture come before the anti-Christ?
A:The Rapture and Tribulation are theological concepts devised by John Nelson Darby, a British evangelical preacher and founder of the Plymouth Brethren, in 1830. He said that believers would be "raptured" up into heaven and that this event would then be followed by a period of Tribulation of non-believers. He did not really mention any anti-Christ in his scheme, but recent proponents of his theology see a place for the anti-Christ, , a concept that has popped up in different contexts over the centuries and is always bound to arouse interest, after the Rapture.One proponent is Tim LaHaye who wrote a number of books placed in the non-fiction category, as well as writing a best-selling fiction series with Jerry B. Jenkins. In the first of this series, 'Left Behind', we see the anti-Christ seeking to block Christ's plans after the rapture has taken place.Answer:Premillenialists see a tribulation period immediately before the second coming of Christ. Pretribulationalist see the rapture (from the Latin word rapio-meaning caught up; see 1 Thess. 4:17) occurring prior to the tribulation with the church in heaven during the tribulation on earth. Midtribulationists place the rapture at the midpoint of a seven year tribulation period, the church on earth for only the first half of the tribulation. The views see the second coming of Christ in two phases: a secret coming in clouds to rapture the church and His return with the church to reign on earth. Postribulationists hold the church will remain on the earth during the tribulation period. The church will be protected from divine wrath although experiencing tribulation. In any event the antichrist reigns during the tribulation period.

Will believers go through great tribulation?
A:The 'Tribulation' is a theological invention of John Nelson Darby, founder of the Plymouth Brethren, in the nineteenth century. The Great Tribulation is the last half of Darby's seven-year Tribulation period, three and one-half years in length. Although few people belong the the Plymouth Brethren Church, many Protestants do believe in its founder's most enduring theological creation, the Rapture. This has helped popularise the fictional book series, Left Behind. .Barbara R. Rossing (The Rapture Exposed) says that according to one critic, the Rapture and the Tribulation had their origins with a young girl's vision. In 1830, fifteen-year-old Margaret MacDonald attended a healing service, where she was said to have seen a vision of a two-stage return of Jesus Christ. The story of her vision was adopted and amplified by Darby. .The belief that Jesus will come again was not new, and Christians have always taught that Jesus will return to earth and that believers should live in anticipation of his second coming. Darby's new teaching was that Christ would return twice, first in secret to "Rapture" his church out of the world and up to heaven, then a second time after seven years of global tribulation for non-believers, to establish a Jerusalem-based kingdom on earth. However, some modern proponents of the Tribulation saw what they felt to be flaws in Darby's scheme and delayed the Rapture, either to midway through the Tribulation, or even post-tribulation. In Darby's original scheme, believers would not go through the tribulation, but in the post-tribulation scenario, they would experience the entire tribulation period, including the 'Great Tribulation'. .It is one thing to predict the tribulation or the great tribulation, but it is an entirely different thing to demonstrate that it will ever happen. The Tribulation has no genuine biblical support, so there is no good reason to believe there will ever be the Tribulation taught by Darby, or a Great Tribulation. They make good reading in a fiction series, but should otherwise enjoy the same obscurity that John Nelson Darby now does.
