Some people think that the Church will not go through the Great Tribulation because God would never do that to his bride. If I had a vote, I would vote for no problems ever for Christians. But God has higher purposes for us. Let's take a look at what the Bible says.
John 16:33 "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart. I have overcome the world."
Romans 5:3 "we also rejoice in our sufferings" I Peter 4:12 "do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering". Revelation 12:7 "He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them."
Whether we like it or not, the Church has faced persecution for centuries. The Church in the final 7-year period will not be exempt from hard times. We will be here during this time. It will be a time to stand up for our Lord. If we perish, we perish.
