Does anyone here at CC think the Day of the Lord begins with the beginning of the 7 year Tribulation??

Eze 30:3 For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
Joe 3:9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
Joe 3:12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
Joe 3:13 Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
Joe 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.

Zec 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
Zec 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Zec 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Zec 14:5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah:

The day of the LORD is the battle of Armageddon when the world attacks the Hebrews and Jesus comes back with the saints and saves Israel and defeats the world.
This happens after the 7 years for during that time the heathen are still operating in the world and ruling.
At the day of the LORD the heathen are put down.
The tribulation is not for 7 years but for the last 3.5 years.
For the first 3.5 years salvation is still available to the world.
When they take the mark in the middle of the 7 years then salvation is no longer available to them.
Then they make war with all people who oppose them.
Also the seals and trumpets is not the wrath of God but the vials are which happens after the 7 years period.
Eze 39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;
Eze 39:26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.
Eze 39:27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;
Eze 39:28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
Eze 39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.

Rom 11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
The antichrist will negotiate peace in the Middle East resulting in a 7 years peace treaty.
It will pave the way for all Hebrews to go to Israel for the nations will see to it.
The antichrist wants them all back on their land but God means it for good towards the Hebrews.
And they will not be left in the nations anymore.
The Jews will rebuild their temple.
In the middle of the 7 years period the antichrist will step in to their temple and claim to be their God and savior.
When the world takes the mark of the beast salvation is no longer available to them and the fulness of the Gentiles will have come in.
Rev 11:1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

Mat 23:39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
God will send Israel 2 witnesses to turn them to the truth for the last 3.5 years.
And at the end of that time Israel will be in the truth.
Then the wrath of God will be poured upon the heathen leading up to the battle of Armageddon which is the 6th vial.
Jesus comes with all the saints and defeats the world and saves Israel.
The day of the LORD.
The day of the Lord is probably all 7 vials of the wrath of God for they are punished by them all.
1Th 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
1Th 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
1Th 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
1Th 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
It starts after the saints are resurrected at the end of the 7 years period.
