Subject: 7 year period and "rapture"
Dear Dean,
Do you believe in a "rapture" where everyone who truly believes in Christ will disappear in the twinkling of an eye? This miraculous event is supposed to take place at either the very beginning of the 7 year tribulation period or at the midway
point. If you do believe in the rapture, will it take place at the beginning of the 7 year tribulation period or will it take place at some other time?
Thank-you for your attention to this matter.
David

(My response)
I personally am convinced that the Lord has made this point unclear so that we are kept in a state of readiness rather than debate. I also believe that when the event occurs that it will be timed in such a way that all three will be correct
depending on ones perspective. This is because there will be overlapping seven-year periods so that what is the beginning of one seven will be the end or middle of another. Note that the seven-years takes its cue from the "seventy-sevens" of Daniel 9.
Hence, there is a seven before the seventieth. Moreover, it can be shown that they are each divided up in half as well. Also note the two seven-year periods of Joseph's plenty/famine years.
