Hi, Kristy!
 
I am in your camp, Kristy... I believe the Bible teaches us that the Trib doesn't begin until the covenant is signed... in fact, I personally believe that the signing of the covenant is the event that will kick off the Trib.  And since the Holy Spirit living in us Christians is what restrains pure evil (believe me, if I saw the signing of the covenant with Israel and "many" take place, or any of the other events I KNOW will take place in and around the Trib, I'd SCREAM it from my website, the rooftops, grocery stores, and everywhere else I went!!!!!!), I am also, like you, a Pre-Trib Rapture believer!  Hang in there, sis, and if you have more questions, by all means, feel free to ask!  My email address is peggym@his-forever.com.
YSIC!
