I have listened to hours of postrib teachers.
I know that doctrine better than most.
I also know what drives it.

That passage you posted is one of 2 escape verses , BY JESUS.
Do you know the other one?

In fact, can any postribber quote both escape verses?

( cue postribbers scrambling to try and see where they are)
The other one is
Lk 21:36
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.


I know because I pray it everyday. However, neither this verse or Rev 3 is speaking about a rapture. You are reading that into the text. There are many ways to escape judgement. Consider passover and the rest of the plagues. There was death and destruction all around but the children of Israel was unharmed.

Now read rev 13.
It is 100% against your misplaced prayer of "lord see me through the trib"
(Exactly opposite.)
Read rev 13, and see not only are you not protected, but all left behinders die who refuse the mark.

See that?
I don't think Jesus played games and fooled you guys into a false "going through the trib" dynamic.
So it is solid exegesis that the 2 escape verses are exactly that...2 ESCAPE VERSES.

LOT ESCAPED.
THE BABY JESUS ESCAPED.
THE 5 WISE VIRGINS ESCAPE.
THE "ONE TAKEN" IN MAT 24 ESCAPES..
1 THES 4 HAS THE CHURCH ESCAPING

Revelation 3:10-12 (KJV) 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name.

All these promises in Rev. 3:10-12 are made to the faithful Christians all over the world who endure to the very end, who will never bend a knee to the Antichrist when he appears.
You do realize protection is lifted during the trib, and power is given the AC to martyr all believers refusing the mark?

There is no " making it through the trib"

"keep you out of...".
Hi, guy. Yes, because they will endure until the very end:

Matthew 24:13: “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”

James 1:12: “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life…”

Hebrews 10:36: “For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.”

Revelation 2:10: “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.”

2 Timothy 4:7: “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”

Galatians 6:9: “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Romans 5:3–4: “Tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope.”

There are christians today in the 10/40 window who are suffering as much as a human being possibly can. Tell them how they are going to be raptured and escape. To them, they are already in the great tribulation.

There is no pre-trib rapture. What will happen at that time when the rapture occurs at Christ's coming "after the tribulation of those days" is that Jesus will destroy all unbelievers just as happened with the flood in Noah's day (Matthew 24:29-39). Paul taught the same thing (1 Thess 4:14-5:3, 2 Thess 1:7-10). After that the judgment will occur, according to Matthew 25:31-46.
If you're a christian I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when the pre-trib rapture occurs.
