Pre-tribulation is a belief held by some Christians in relation to the end times, specifically in regards to the timing of the rapture. The rapture is the belief that at some point in the future, Jesus Christ will return and take all true believers in Him up to heaven before the start of the tribulation period, a time of great turmoil and suffering on earth. Pre-tribulationists believe that the rapture will occur before the tribulation period begins. #pretribulation
