Pre-Tribulation Rapture
John F. Walvoord, Dallas Seminary Dean
Spent 50 years
Book – The Rapture Question, John F. Walvoord, 1954-1957
The fact is that neither post-trib or Pre-trib is an explicit teaching of Scripture ( page 148 )
The rapture question is determined more by Ecclesiology than by Eschatology
More by one’s understanding of the relation between the Church and Israel than by Biblical teachings regarding the End.

“…perhaps the position of pretribulationism is correct although its proof at times has been logically invalid or at least unconvincing.

There is always a short term example to prove a long term principle
Long term language so that you can do it
Long term application
Don’t do something today, and don’t worry about it tomorrow
It only becomes tricky, if you want to keep the Church out of tribulations
Show you Punishment and use it to guide you

And to the one who is victorious and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations. He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery

Once they take the number, they can not believe truth
Then I saw another angel flying overhead, with the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth— to every nation and tribe and tongue and people.
He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. Worship the One who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the springs of waters.”…
Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000from all the tribes of Israel.

Praise from the Great Multitude ( Revelations 7:13-15 )
…Then one of the elders addressed me: “These in white robes,” he asked, “who are they, and where have they come from?” “Sir,” I answered, “you know.” So he replied, “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason, ‘They are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple; and the One seated on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.… ( Link )
Revelations 20:4

1st Thessalonians 3
Dead get their resurrected body at the beginning of the millennium
But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle to fly from the presence of the serpent to her place in the wilderness, where she was nourished for a time, and times, and half a time.
( Revelations 12:14 ) [ Link]
The woman is persecuted and driven into the wilderness: yet it is with the eagle wings given her by her Lord that she flies; the serpent drives her into the wilderness: yet it is in the wilderness that her place is prepared by God.
The way that seems hard is the way that is most blest.
The opposition of the dragon brings her blessings that she never would have received except in persecution; neither the eagle power nor the heavenly sustenance had been hers without the serpent’s hate.
Thus is the trial of faith precious in bringing us to know the priceless blessings of heavenly help and heavenly food.
Eagle’s Wings
She is given eagle’s wings. God had spoken of the deliverance of Israel under a similar emblem, “Ye have seen . . . how I bare you on eagles’ wings and brought you unto myself”
There is a difference as well as a resemblance in the emblem here. In Exodus God is said to have borne Israel on eagles’ wings: here the wings are given to the woman. The strength of the earlier dispensation is a strength often used for, rather than in, the people of God; the strength of the latter is a strength in them: “They mount up with wings as eagles” ( Isaiah 40:31 ).
Wilderness
The place is not a chance spot: it is prepared of God; it is in the wilderness, but still it is the place God prepared for her. It is always a delight to faith to mark how the ordering of God works in and through the wilfulness and wickedness of the enemy: the Son of man goeth, as it was written, though there is a “woe” against the man by whom He is betrayed. The wicked one can never drive us from God’s place, but only to it, unless we are enemies to ourselves. She is nourished in the wilderness.

Not develop faith muscle that will allow them to withstand prosecution that will occur in the latter portion of Anti-Christ

Didache
The Didache (/ˈdɪdəkeɪ, -ki/; Greek: Διδαχή,, translit. translit. Didakhé, lit., lit. ‘Teaching’), also known as The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, is a brief anonymous early Christian treatise, dated by most modern scholars to the first century.
The first line of this treatise is “The teaching of the Lord to the Gentiles (or Nations) by the twelve apostles”. [ Link ]
2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him [ Parousia ],
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
