I am a he and identify as a male since birth

In my youth I wanted to be a male. For a specific reason....

But I never though I was one...

The church will not go through the tribulation since our Lord faithfully promised to keep His Bride out of the “hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.”

The church doesn’t need to be tested—we have already made our decision for Christ.

I think it is a reasonable act of faith that we take Him at His word. And since the Tribulation described in Revelation 4–18 is not for the church but for the Christ-rejecting world, and since the church does not appear in any Scripture passage that describes the Tribulation, it is reasonable to conclude that the church will not pass through the seven-year Tribulation.

Besides, there is no need for the church to be on the earth during the Tribulation. The church is on earth now to preach the gospel and bring forth fruit after our own kind. During the Tribulation there will be no time to propagate, and the gospel will be entrusted into the hands of the 144,000 Jewish evangelists. Revelation 7:1-8

And to the two supernatural witnesses of Revelation 11, and the angel that preaches “the everlasting gospel”.

So, the church is not needed during the time of wrath that is prophesied for this earth.

Revelation 6:1–18:24

Bible Gateway passage: Revelation 6-18 - English Standard Version

The Seven Seals - Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say with a voice like thunder, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to...

Yes~They moved from Montana to Winston-Salem and I told her step-father who was/and still is an atheist, that God used him to bring my wife to me, and he said that he did not believe that, and I said back...I have the evidence that he did! His job transferred him from Montana to N.C.

Wow that is SO amazing, yet, SO heartbreaking at the same time. I pray he comes to Christ Jesus!!!
I met a lovely young woman in her early 30's who met the love of her life in elementary school!
They've been together since then, happily married, & had a child on the way last I saw her.

Same here, and the first thing she give to me every single morning is a beautiful smile! Again, so sorry for your great loss, at such a young age.

Each day, Mark out of nowhere would hear, "Handsome!!!" I couldn't wait to wrap my arms around him, & swoop up our Shetland Sheepdog, Sadee, into my arms, showering them both w/ kisses. We couldn't even be apart five minutes w/out us missing each other already

We were both singers/songwriters/musicians too. Talk about perfect for each other, sharing the same passion! Your condolences really warms my heart, Red, thank you! My testimony actually began w/ the loss of Sadee, Mark, & my mother.

The only trouble with every morning the beautiful smile coming, it is almost turning into a mid morning smile! But, what I can say, when I leave her so early after supper! I'll take the mid morning smile for a trade off.

Awww... it sounds like you've got a very special marriage indeed! Praise the Lord
