Care to elaborate? I'd love to hear! It's interesting to contemplate how it could all fall into place before the Trib!
When I'm looking at end times events, I'm especially interested in things that could (not will, but could) happen before the Rapture. Things that could happen before the Rapture could also happen after the Rapture and before Tribulation. For example, the Eze 38-39 Invasion of Israel. My opinion on that is the Bible pretty much rules out anytime after Tribulation starts with the information provided us. So yes, I personally discount all the theories that aren't pre-trib for that event, and that's based on my study of the Bible. Could I be wrong? Almost always. Then there is the destruction of Damascus. I don't believe that's a Tribulation time event either so in my opinion must occur prior to. I don't have an opinion on the possible Psalm war as I haven't studied that, other than to say that if that is a future war then I believe it will occur before Tribulation. Then Daniel 7:23-27 indicates that the end times govmint and the 10 kings will arise before Tribulation, and necessarily, the person designated to be the anti-christ will rise up in that organization to be in a position to affirm the 7 year covenant with Israel at the appointed time, and at the time that that covenant with Israel is confirmed, Tribulation starts... precisely then.
So there are a lot of pre-trib events, in my opinion that need to take place, and it seems like we're quickly racing to that time in history, which, happily, means the Rapture is SUPER imminent.
In my opinion, we're already seeing the Daniel 7 prophecies developing in real time. It's not hard for me to envision the destruction of Damascus and the Psalm war (if it is a war) happening pre-Rapture, and while it could happen pre-Rapture, I lean towards the Eze war happening between the Rapture and Tribulation. That war could actually lend to the covenant between the anti-christ and Israel happening, and the destruction of Damascus could be the opportunity that the Eze 38-39 coalition uses to justify themselves in going after Israel even though we know that the real reason is to take spoils. Back to Daniel 7. We see the global govmint arranging itself and much of that is happening out in the open for all to see. Not too long ago all of that was done in secrecy. I'll bet there is still much being done secretly, so we don't really know how far this has developed despite being able to watch some of it. This global govmint is different in that in this state it is a hierarchy without a country of its own, yet it will eventually rule the world. The kings may not be kings in the traditional sense all of which makes watching the development of this evil empire developing interesting.
I have a harder time seeing the Eze war occur pre-Rapture, and that is so Israeli-centric and includes God's hand of obvious super-natural protection over Israel. That just seems like a post-Church era thing to me, though I still see the possibility of it being a pre-Rapture event. If it is post-Rapture, and I believe it has to be pre-Trib, then of course there must be a gap between the Rapture and Tribulation.
Not too long ago I read a fiction book that was end times related. The time of the book was set about 10 years after the Rapture and Tribulation had not yet started. People in the book were aware of the Rapture theory when so many disappeared but they were discounting that theory because the other things that Christians were teaching (Tribulation related) had not occurred. That got me thinking about a gap where before I was more inclined to think that the Church would be taken out very near the time that the anti-christ and Israel confirmed that Covenant which starts the clock ticking for 7 360 day years of Tribulation, but I'm thinking more and more that there will be a sizeable gap, possible of at least a few years between the two events.
