1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
The seven year period known as "the tribulation" or "the seventieth week" or "the Day of the Lord" refers to the Lord's judgment on the Earth. According to Peter this judgment must begin with the house of God. Hence, I view the rapture as that judgment. On the one hand some will be judged as good and faithful servants and others will be cast out with the judgment "I never knew you" or "foolish virgins" or "Lazy servant".
