What Does The Bible Say About The Rapture?

The quote you make during Jesus short stay on earth was mentioned only in the fact that while we are here the world will oppress us however in His resurrection we over came wrath and death...the 2nd half of the The Tribulation is the the Great Tribulation which is the devils wrath which being Jesus has victory over when He encountered Satan in the wilderness and when He overcame death. To substantiate these claims we need only refer to Paul and Johns revelations. .

1 Thessalonians 5:8 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. 9 For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10 He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

Philippians 3:20-21 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the LORD Jesus Christ, 21who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
