Oh, here we go, Irishmom! Pre-trib, Mid-trib, Post-trib! Whole new ball of wax!

As best as I can explain without going into great detail, conditions on the earth are going to get worse. Although we have faced disasters of all kinds in history, we will see greater and more frequent ones from now on.

Man's treatment of one another will continue to deteriorate. Father against son, mother against daughter etc. It will get worse than it is today, as bad as it already is.

Commerce and financial activities will begin to center around Europe rather in the U.S. and worldwide. Devices will be developed to track our whereabouts. News will continue to pour out of the Middle East, especially regarding Israel.

Christ will return when a push toward a one world government will begin to formulate. Religions will merge doctrines and ideals, paving the way for a one world religion.

After He returns to take His people with Him, there will be 3-1/2 years of peace and harmony followed by wars unlike any seen in history. Don't want to be here then.

Anyway, that's pretty much it in a nutshell. That's about what I know so far although I know there is more to read up on. Hope that helps a little.

jeffncandace is right though.....it all depends on how one views these different takes on the tribulation. The one I listed is the pre-trib version.

Irishmom,

May I suggest you get ahold of the Lost Behind series, and watch them. Also, read the book of Revelations, it reveals that there is much more than we could possibly imagine to come. Throughout the Bible, it gives us many scriptures on the prophesies that will be filled, signs, etc. as well.

Christ has died. Christ has risen. Christ will come again.

Beyond that...no one knows.

Before:
Many people will give away all their possessions.....as they have done on previous "second coming" events.

During:
All those people will stand on a hillside or mountain top wearing silly clothes.

After:
They will realise that they were wrong...just like all the others that have gone before them.
