Question: I thought that the Rapture would take place before the great tribulation. Will it not be that Jesus will take His elect away and rescue the elect from the great suffering?

Answer: You are in error. There is nothing in the Bible to suggest that Jesus prevents his people from having to endure great suffering. The early church experienced it and many are experiencing it today. He will rescue us from the outpouring of the wrath of God, but not the time of great tribulation.
