When Euphemia mentioned 'Tribulation" she was speaking of the 7 year period of disasters, turmoil, and warfare called "The Tribulation". As opposed to the generic term "tribulation' which just means "troubles" in a general sense.Um, i dont understand what the difference is between the tribulation and THE tribulation. I dont know what bible you reading, but mine doesnt put it in caps like that.
This reminds me of another scripture when Jesus said to Peter satan was gonna sift him as wheat. And he said not to worry about it, cos Jesus knew Peter was WHEAT. sifting is not a pleasant process, but we all go through it. It kinda sounds like tribulation to me. Or turbulence.
We all have tribulations, but whether or not a particular person lives through The Tribulation or not is a different issue.
Evangelicals assume that they will be "raptured" before The Tribulation.
