Hi Enow,
Exegetically speaking . . . the Rapture is being snatched away, while Luke 21:36 is fleeing on one's own. That right there is enough to tell me that these are different. I've found the Bible agrees with itself in these tiny little details.
Jesus was prophesying the end of the age to Israel, not the rapture of the church that would not actually be revealed (musterion) until Paul. That also is sufficient to tell me these are not the same. Paul revealed the mystery of the church. It was not revealed before that.
There is more. I like these for their simplicity. Running away is not the same thing as being taken away, so these are different.
Much love!
I am not sure how you can say that is for the end of the great tribulation when that warning would not apply to saints during the great tribulation that would need the mark of the beast t buy and sell in order to even be tempted to surfeit and get drunk and be so overcharged for the cares of this life that you would not want to leave for the King's Supper in Heaven as per Luke 14:15-24 which is what the real cost of discipleship is about when Luke continued, expounding on Jesus's parable by what He said to the multitudes afterwards in Luke 14:25-33. Jesus was not asking His disciples to give up everything and hate their families while living their lives down here. No. This was in regards to the parable in Luke 14:15-24 about being ready to leave their lives & their loved ones down here when Jesus comes as the Bridegroom.
So the parameters of Luke 21:33-36 cannot be a warning to believers during the great tribulation at all since Satan will be waging war on the saints that they will not be TEMPTED to be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness and the cares of that life to be ensnared at all during the great tribulation.
So that warning applies to believers in the times we are living now when we do not need the mark of the beast yet to get drunk by nor be overcharged by the cares of this life. So do discern that with Him for the truth in His words because I know I cannot make you see that.
