The rapture is the gathering of the bride.
It is vividly depicted in mat 25.
Jesus is the groom,the 5 wise,half of the 10,are taken to the marrige chamber .
We see intimacy depicted between Jesus and his bride.
Now,not that dynamic in relationship with "tribulation"
The tribulation of that story is after the gathering.
Same with noah and lot (2 other examples of Jesus)
Israel has 70 weeks, 490 years, to make an end of sin, and bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophesy, and to anoint the most holy who is Jesus.
The time began before Jesus came in flesh for they were not in the truth for if they were then the Roman Empire would not of been able to have control over Jerusalem.
69 weeks has passed with 1 more week to go which is the time that God causes all people who do not love Him to follow the beast, and brings Israel to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah.

Israel is blinded in part, for they acknowledge the Old Testament but not the New for the majority, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in, when salvation is no longer available to the Gentiles, and so all Israel shall be saved.
For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance on God's part.
Which He has not cast away His people that He once foreknew.
And He is the LORD and does not change, therefore the sons of Jacob are not consumed.
And God said if the sun, and the moon, and the stars are still in affect then His covenant with Israel still stands, and they shall not cease from being a nation.
At the end of the 70 weeks Israel as a nation has to be in the truth that Jesus is their Messiah which they have not done that yet so the 70th week could of not been fulfilled.
God warns the saints of the new age movement that will happen at the latter times which is now, and their false interpretation of the Bible based on the occult, and evolution, and people can still evolve to be greater and spiritual, and Jesus is not Lord and Savior, but a good teacher and love, and evolved to be an ascended master, and avatar, and the New Age Christ is the final teacher in the evolutionary process which he believes the Christ conscience will come upon him and he will evolve, and all people who follow him will evolve to be greater and spiritual.
They will forbid to marry for a man and a woman for population reduction, and command to abstain from meats, nature worship, reverence of animals.
The time will come that the world will not endure sound doctrine, not listen to the truth of the Bible, but want to hear it according to their own lusts, the new age movement to evolve to be greater and spiritual, exalting themselves, and not acknowledging a personal God, but honor the God of forces, or the power of nature as their higher power.
The new age movement is the future for this world, and will pave the way to the beast kingdom for all people who do not love God, and is the beginning of the end for the wicked.
Paul said the saints cannot be gathered unto Christ until there is a falling away first, which is the condition of the world in response to the Gospel which the new age movement will be a unified religious system with all religions as part of it interpreted according to the new age movement, and anything contrary will not be tolerated, and a hate crime, for they want peace not division.
And the man of sin steps in to the Jews temple and claims to be their God and Messiah.
Then the saints can be gathered unto Christ.
But the beast makes war against the saints and prevails against them, and they are given in to his hands for three and one half years, and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people then all things shall be finished.

They do not believe the New Age Christ will help them until the nations come together as one to work for peace on earth, so they are working on that.
The new age movement will be the one world religious system which the religion of Islam will rebel against it, and Islam will be against the world and be taken down by the world, which that war will be so terrible as to cause one third of the world to perish mainly in the Arab nations as they are plucked up by the roots, and the Bible describes nuclear weapons, which that war is so terrible that the world turns to the New Age Christ as the solution to have peace on earth for the 10 horn kingdom failed at obtaining peace on earth.
Which the 6 trumpets are warnings to the world to turn to God but after the 6th trumpet the world does not turn to God, and repent of their sins, but keep trying to achieve peace by their own efforts.
Which an example is WW1, set up League of Nations, did not turn to God, WW2, set up United Nations, did not turn to God, and that pattern will continue until Islam against the world, which they do not turn to God so He gives them the man of sin to rule over them.
At the end of the first three and one half years it is the falling away first which they deny the Gospel being preached in the world, when the transgressors are come to the full.
Then war shall break out in heaven and Satan and his angels are cast to earth, which the earth becomes the habitation of devils for it is their holding cell, and Satan appears as the beast to deceive all people that do not love God to follow him, which they will be deceived by a devil for it is the strong delusion God will give everyone that does not love the truth, but has pleasure in unrighteousness
Then a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences shall, and his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power.
And when they follow the beast and take his mark then repentance and salvation is no longer available to them, and the fulness of the Gentiles has come in.
