And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, John 10:28

"Most.... rightly see the Great Tribulation as God preparing His people for their Kingdom. In other words.... the Great Tribulation is a rough process but it is a blessing for Israel.

"The preterists.... see the Great Tribulation as a bad thing or as having no other purpose than a punishment"

Then without a great tribulation we are unprepared?

The dispensationalists who think all the good guys will have been raptured?

Preterists (generally) thing the GT is past, historical, refers to the destruction of the Temple.

Huh?

Right, which is why it is so strange that they (the preterists) so tragically miss the ENTIRE point of the Great Tribulation.
