(John 16.33) Same event? really?? Christians suffer tribulation at the hands of the ungodly. The Jews who rejected Jesus & the Gospel throughout the 40 years suffered the Great Tribulation .

In the wars of 66-70AD the tribulation was " such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be." not in intensity, but in type, There was no rebelionin which the invader was concerned to save the city and the temple and pleaded with the rebels to returtn to constitutional government. There was never a war where in facing a siege there was a civil war with 3 factions fighting each other and ignoring the enemy. The Romans were the legal government of the country.

I posted a poem, which I liked. If your interpretation of 'such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be' is what you have just said, then there's no point in me even trying to interact further. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
