While Tribulation is widely seen solely as punishment, Israel – a people punished by God for disobedience TWICE before – will realize they have seen the movie before and lead the REPENTANT back to true worship of the Lord – and that covenant applies to EVERYONE (a mixed multitude) who will repent.
I know many who don’t give a second thought to being unkind, or to more serious issues like tacit support of abortion or LGBT. Tribulation is a chance to get right before final judgment. If you find yourself in Tribulation, do like Israel and REPENT – perhaps you may yet find the LORD merciful – even after a THIRD time of turning away.
