Tribulation Children?

Q

Thank you for you website, it has been a blessing for me and my family. I think we agree that all children under the age of reason will be taken in the rapture and that children will be born in the millennium to those who survive the tribulation, but what about during the tribulation. Will children be born during that seven year period?

A

I haven’t found anything to suggest that there would be no children born during the 70th Week of Daniel. In fact, Jesus spoke about the difficulty pregnant women and nursing mothers would have in fleeing from the anti-Christ at the beginning of the Great Tribulation, which is the last half of the 70th Week. (Matt. 24:19) This alone would suggest that mothers will continue to give birth during that time.
