Are We In The Tribulation? End Times Prophecy Timeline Explained!

There are many people on youtube and various websites that proclaim that we are in the tribulation, the 7 years of God's wrath poured out on planet Earth. If you have been wondering the same thing then let me put your mind at ease. The answer to the question is a profound "NO"! Sometimes you run across a particularly talented teacher and I did this evening, his name is Scott Clarke and he goes by his youtube moniker "eternalrhythmflow". I have included his teaching in a video below. I love his use of Clarence Larkin's Dispensational Charts and his clear teaching of end times prophecy timelines from the book of Daniel and Matthew that leave no doubt that while we are very close to the tribulation starting point we are definitely not in that dreadful time. I encourage you to watch his entire teaching. He will touch on the lunar solar tetrads and how they indicate that really big events are going to happen in the national life of Israel in the next several months. No, we are not in the tribulation but Friend it is getting very late! Don't put off trusting Christ as your Savior and think that you can gauge the time just right and believe on Him at the last moment. That would be extremely dangerous and foolish. Don't think you are going to have tomorrow to believe on Christ because you might die tonite! Trust Jesus as your Savior right now!
If you are a Christian and have been troubled by teachers on youtube like 9nania and ppsimmons who are broadcasting their errors that we are well into the tribulation period then know that you aren't the first to be "troubled" by these false teachings. Notice what Paul told the believers  in 2 Thessalonians 2 ...
 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
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.
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;
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.
Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
Indeed it would be troubling and it would greatly shake my soul to actually believe that we are living in the tribulation. Take comfort in this fabulous teaching and get serious about sharing Christ with lost loved ones and friends.
