I clicked on your internet site.  Awesome job.  I will have to visit that again
 
Something to consider though.
 
You wrote "One only has to look at the numerous types and parallels throughout the Scriptures. In fact, there is no type or parallel that I know of that points to a 3 1/2 year Tribulation, but there are many that point to a 7 year Tribulation.  "
 
You wrote how Noah was 600 years old then the flood came pointing to the parallel of 6 days or 6000 years then the rapture/destruction-which i agree with
 
Noah however lived 350 years after the flood-which I believe represents the 3 1/2 years that Noah-a type of the church -is hidden during the great trib.
 
I believe the ark is a type of Christ and Noah-the church-is brought into the ark 7 days before the flood is a type of the church hidden in Christ for the 7 days or 7000 years before eternity.
 
[Eph 1:4] ‘According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love’
 
    
John 10:28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.
Something to consider
