Hi John,
 
I agree with you. I believe that Scriptures tell us that our rapture will come immediately before God's wrath is unleashed upon the whole world just as it was unleashed upon the world immediately after Noah entered the arc, and immediately after Lot left Sodom. God promises us that we are 'not appointed to wrath', but we are NOT promised to be unaffected by tribulation in the world.
 
"You will have tribulation in the world, but I have overcome the world."
