Do you think the tribulation will happen after the Russian-Arab attack on Israel?

I think it will happen before, but I am willing to be wrong. It will,I think, open the door for The Anti - Christ to be reveled, then The Rapture.

it is very possible it will, since the bible telss us that the antichrist will take over the world and there will be a great wall at the end.\n\nSo he will forgive those that accept him, and the rest will call to thier allah for no use, since he can not save them from the true God.

Yep, your right. There will be a rapture, a "taking up" as the Bible calls it, ecen though it never uses the term rapture specifically.\n\nTheres also the verse, about two men in a field, and one is taken up, and one left behind. I'll see if I can find it.\n\n"Then there shall be two men in the field; one will be taken, and one will be left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken, and one will be left. Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming." Matthew 24:40- 42

yes they will Jace, just before the tribulation. Or they will do something drastic like that, because without a doubt the un will set out to destroy religion.......

A great portion of the Jews will come to their true Messiah(Christ) according to Romans 11:26 in the end times(which I believe we are living in today). But the scriptures also say that a great portion of the Islamics in the end times. Isaiah 19:23-25 says  "In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrians will come into Egypt and the Egyptians into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.\n  In that day Israel will be the third party with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,\n  whom the LORD of hosts has blessed, saying, Blessed is Egypt My people, and Assyria the work of My hands, and Israel My inheritance."

If you are not born again you will surely see true evil show its self to you.Any one who is not taken at the return of Christ will go through the 7 year tribulation period and this will be a time more terrible than any other in the history of the world. The Anti-Christ mentioned in the Bible will not manifest himself until after the start of the tribulation and not before.

I don't know but it is a possibility.  In the late 1980's the Israeli Air Force flew across Jordanian airspace to blow up the reactor that Saddam was using to create weapons-grade plutonium in Iraq.  In short, the Israelis are poised to anything to survive and we should help them as much as we can.

Many of the bible prophecies have already come to pass including the return of the Jews to Israel. Everything needed for the mark of the beast is in place and we are seeing increased weather conditions and earthquakes all of which are also in the bible. I truly believe we are in the last days. To read it for yourself, turn to revelations and Daniel. God does not tell us the exact time but gives us many of the end time signs.

Jesus warned: “There will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning . . . , no, nor will occur again.” (Matthew 24:21) That event will bring an end to the present unrighteous system of things. Its climax will be “the war of the great day of God the Almighty”—Armageddon. That will indeed be a calamity for all those who remain a “part of the world.”\n\nWhat kind of judgment will this be? It will be selective, removing only “those who do not [choose to] know God and those who do not obey the good news about our Lord Jesus.” (2 Thessalonians 1:8-10) But it will not be a disaster to those who listen to God’s warning and instructions, as did Noah and his family. This event will certainly be an act of God, since he will protect his servants. That makes it different from other disasters, which take the lives of good and bad alike.\n\nWHEN Jesus taught his followers to pray for God’s Kingdom, he knew that its coming would bring an end to thousands of years of human rule independent from God. During all that time, God’s will was not being done on earth in general. (Psalm 147:19, 20) But after the establishment of the Kingdom in heaven, God’s will is to be done everywhere. The time for the awe-inspiring transition from human rule to God’s heavenly Kingdom rule is getting very near.\n\n Marking this transition will be the period of time that Jesus called the “great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again.” (Matthew 24:21) The Bible does not say how long that time period is to be, but the calamities that are to take place during it will be worse than anything the world has ever seen. At the beginning of the great tribulation, something will happen that will be a severe shock to most people on earth: the destruction of all false religion. That will not be a shock to Jehovah’s Witnesses, for they have long anticipated this.  The great tribulation ends at Armageddon when God’s Kingdom crushes the entire Satanic system.—Daniel 2:44;

Isreal being attacked is one of the signs of the apocalypse according to the bible.  If it is just Iran it doesn't fit though, it's supposed to be most of the world and on top of that the anti-christ must make his appearance and declare himself God before that happens...

No, don't think so.\n\nJtuckerndfw, you really need to read the entire scripture, not just one sentence.  As you can see, when a generation sees all of these things come to pass, that will be the generation of the tribulation.  Can't take one sentence out of scripture, you really do need the entire scripture or you'll end up like so many, taking one thing out of context and changing the whole meaning.\n\nMatthew 24:\n 15"So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,'[b] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17Let no one on the roof of his house go down to take anything out of the house. 18Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak. 19How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. 22If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23At that time if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'There he is!' do not believe it. 24For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible. 25See, I have told you ahead of time. \n\n 26"So if anyone tells you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. 27For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather. \n\n 29"Immediately after the distress of those days \n   " 'the sun will be darkened, \n      and the moon will not give its light; \n   the stars will fall from the sky, \n      and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.'[c] \n\n 30"At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other. \n\n 32"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it[d]is near, right at the door. 34I tell you the truth, this generation[e] will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 35Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

God will rapture only those who are saved (they are the ones Sealed with the Holy Spirit). Once the Tribulation begins all who have heard the gospel will be decieved and when the beast comes and requires a mark (a seal) they will belong to him and never be able to be saved from God's Wrath and Punishment of eternity in the Lake of Fire. \n\nThose who are born again will be raptured before the tribulation begins. Think about the shadows of historical stories in scripture: Noah was saved from the Judgment of the Flood. \n\nCheck out Premillinial books and see that they are accurate with what scripture teaches. \n\nThe Judgments on the earth during the tribulation (see Revelation) will happen during all 7 years of tribulation. If we are saved and forgiven from our sins (born again in Christ) he would not leave us here to be among those judged. The first 3 years are false peace and there are things going on that are coming down from a Just God bringing Wrath. \n\nAmazing how our church has been studying Revelation for 18 weeks now and we covered that stuff a few weeks ago. We are on the 7th and final trumpet before Christ's return with the Redeemed of the Ages and the Angels to reign in the Millenial Kingdom.\n\nHope my info helps you.

" Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem".  \nThe Bible, Zech. 12:1-3\n\nThis is from an interpretation of the above:\n\n"The Bible does indicate that there will come a specific event which will herald God, once again, intervening on behalf of His people Israel: God will intervene to thwart an invasion from the far north.  Speaking to the leader of the land of Magog (which we are convinced refers to Russia), God says:\n\n And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes...\n\nThus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.   - Ezekiel 38:16, 23\n\nThis passage is well known to Bible prophecy buffs, as it also seems to suggest the use of nuclear weapons. The more one knows about the technical details of this passage, and the more one knows about what is presently going on in that region, the more it would seem that this event may be on our near horizon".

I do not doubt your premonitions, i have some once in a while, i must tell you i have not been able to take my mind off the middle east especially since the nuclear problem started with Iran, in my heart i feel Iran is going to attack Israel, but Israel would retaliate in a way the world has never seen, it would be terrible. I can't prove this, but that is how i feel. Lets just pray that God's will in these times will be done.

Virtually none! The rapture could occur at any time now as the stage is set. The anti-Christ is in the world already. At the point of the rapture the Lord will unleash all sorts of terrible disasters on earth one being that there will be no rain on the earth for the first three and a half years of the tribulation which will be brought about by the 2 witnesses spoken of in Revelations. Just make sure you are ready as anyone left behind will most likely either die or on order to survive, people will be forced to accept the mark of the beast and those who do have no hope of entering the kingdom of God as they will be doomed forever.
