Thanks Sampson for your concern.  To tell you the truth, I hope you are right.  I really don't want to go through the tribulation.  I don't think some of us will be alive because I am expecting nuclear terrorist attacks in possibly seven US cities in 2008.  I hope I am wrong on that one, too.
 
I am really not wanting to get into a big debate on pre, mid or post.  I'll just tell you the reason I changed to post.  Matthew 24:29-31, the gathering of the elect immediately after the time of distress, and  Revelations 20:4-5 that talks about saints that go through the tribulation time followed by the first resurrection.  If you are right, I will be pleasantly surprised, but if I am right, don't get discouraged, because Jesus is on His way.
 
Be Blessed.
