I have attached an article that I wrote 3 years ago, which will Biblically give us insight to the fact that there will be NO Pre-Tribulation Rapture! It is of great importance that end-time Christians have a clear understanding of this, so that we will be prepared, just as the 5 wise virgins (out of 10 virgins) were prepared (25th chapter of the Book of Matthew).
It doesn't really matter if one believes in a pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation, or post-tribulation rapture because the belief in one or the other is not a salvation issue unless one is not saved.
HOWEVER, I offer this article that may offer you some insight into the possibility - I believe with certainty - of a pre-tribulation rapture that provides MUCH more biblical validity than merely quoting only two verses as your proof.
