Category Description for Bible Study.../Pre-Tribulation Rapture
This category is for sites that pertain to the pre-tribulation rapture doctrine. Pre-Trib means the rapture will take place prior to the tribulation, or as the first event of the tribulation period. In turn, the tribulation generally refers to an intense period of troubling times that was prophesied in Deuteronomy 4:30. This tribulation period was affirmed by Jesus in Matt. 24:21-29 and Mark 13:19-24, and is described in the book of Revelation.
