The History of the Pre-Tribulation

Historically, for the first 1700 years of church history, the ideas of a pre or mid trip rapture weren't even on the table yet. That idea didn't really come into play until I think 1820s, late 1820s. When America was founded, some folks don't know this, but the Puritans thought that the next thing that happened would be the millennium. It's such a different eschatology than most folks today have. Perfect. Your next question. How did the concept of a pre post or mid time frame get associated with the tribulation? So what's the history behind pre trip post trip mid trip? Sure. Okay.
