# tribulation #
## Definition: ##
The term "tribulation" refers to a time of hardship, suffering, and distress.
* The New Testament says that Christians will endure times of persecution and other kinds of tribulation because many people in this world are opposed to Jesus' teachings.
* The Bible uses the term "the Great Tribulation" to describe a period of time before Jesus' second coming when God's wrath will be poured out on the earth for several years.
* The term "tribulation" could also be translated as, "time of great suffering" or "deep distress" or "severe difficulties."
