The Tribulation is an event referred to in the New Testament of the Bible, is a relatively short period of time where people who follow God will experience world-wide persecution and be purified and strengthened by it. The Tribulation is generally thought to occur before the second coming of Jesus and the end of the world.
Premillenialism is the view that Jesus will soon return, defeat the Antichrist and establish a thousand years reign of peace. The post tribulation view brings Christ's "appearing" and His "coming" together in one all- encompassing, great event.
The strenght is the day when the Master appears, He will be honoured and recognised by all. The day of the display for the "King of Kings" is the day of joy for His bride.
The weakness is that there is a claim that we are already in the Millennium, have being since A.D.70- which makes those thousand years already well-over 1900 years and counting..
God Bless

Hi Joe!
So when you say Post-Trib Premill, you're referring to the second coming of Christ, right? But does that mean that Christian will have to live through the Tribulation? Or are they already raptured prior to it? Hope you can help clarify, thanks!
dear dohnie, from my reading the view is christians will live through the tribulation which is suppose to last for 7years. GB.
Dear Bro joe,
Any scripture to support that Christians will live through the tribulation for 7 years.
Bro Joe,
Are we consider living in the year of tribulation right now and waiting for Christ return. By the way, same with Eunice, where can we find the evidence from the bible about the 7 years of tribulation.
So are you considering that Christian will go through the suffering on earth before taken up to heaven in post tribulation stand?
Hi Joe,
Thanks for your sharing. Since you have not stated your personal view, how about your stand? By the way, Pre-millenniumnists quoted from Rev.19:11-21 as continuation to Rev.20; therefore, Christ's return will definitely will be before the millennium. Your last paragraph does not qualified the statement to a pre-millenniumnist, but is rather the view of either Amillennialism or Post-Millennialism. By the way, both believed no future tribulation period. Please correct me if I am wrong. Appreciated.
dear sister, i am not able to give you the scripture, as i have said that it was from my reading as writtern by other christians from their belief. GB.
dear jerome, what i have writtern is from my reading and not my take on the subject. GB.
dear freddie, as i have stated ealier, i have not taken a stand on the matter as yet. as it is not on cast iron , will wait upon the leading of the Holy Spirit at its appointed time. GB>
To Joe... Thanks for your posting. Just want to clarify one point. Is the belief that 'we are already in the millennium' according to what you state in the last portion of your posting a post-tribulation premillennial stand. How then can that be a 'premillennial' weakness?
Dear Bro.Joe I also understand that the Post tribulationist believe that all spirit baptized christians will go thru the tribulation and overcome the antichrist and usher in the millenial kingdom of Christ.It really defeats the purpose of getting prepared for the coming of the Lord so as to be raptured before the tribulation starts as the AOG believe and also the word of God tells us in MATHEW 24:40-41.
Dear Bro Joe,
What are the evidence that we are already experiencing the tribulation. Please explain.
dear andrew, i have only stated from my reading and not challenged on any of other views.GB
dear raymond, as have stated ealier by me that everybody is only stating their view.GB
dear sister, as i have stated ealier i have writtern from my reading and that are other saint's view.GB
Hi Joe,
Your non-committed stand sounds 'wise' in some sense. I came across some friends who somehow responded similar to your view. They said it doesn't matter pre-; mid-; post-tribulations or pre-; post-millennium or amillennium. As long as Christ coming is absolute and there is the HOPE for what we believed in - redemption, forgiveness of sins, salvation etc.
dear freddie, you are absolutely right, cos i know and am waiting for the coming of Christ. the rest is not crucial to my walk at the moment, as it is not clear and so i do not want to worry my self unduly. GB
To Joe... Okay. I think I got it. I conclude that the weakness portion in your posting to be the belief similar to that of the 'amillennialists' who regards we are already in the 'millennium.' Thank you...
Thanks for your explanation earlier. But your non-committed answers towards the end unfortunately also comes off as non-caring. Well, that's what it sounds like to me anyway.
But honestly, the Post-Trib Pre-Mill view does sound logical chronologically la. I mean Tribulation starts, Antichrist comes, Jesus returns, defeats Antichrist, Jesus reigns for a thousand years!
Hi Joe,
Is that mean you will hold on to the stand from what you have read or you will not coded it as your support.
Do you really belief what the writer wrote?
