What is the significance of Sept 23, 2017?  Sites online are saying something about a woman clothed by the sun and revelations?  Is it the next end time prophecy?
The Re 12 sign in the sky occurs on 23 Sept 17.  Just prior to that is the feast of trumpets. :jump:

Rapture Ready

...[B]efore anyone begins to think this is the date of the rapture...

Ch 12 is a summary of Israel.

Personally, I think God is going to make us all go through the tribulation to test our faith before giving us the gift of rapture. And then save us right before the wrath.

The Great Tribulation is the wrath of God. Jesus is not a wife-beater. The wrath of the Lamb is not for the bride. 1 Thess 5:9

Doesn't the rapture take place after the 7th trumpet...

The rapture is the next event on the prophetic calendar. John spoke about two signs not one. Don't be one who says that the Lord delays his coming. You don't want to be here during the Great Tribulation (Lk 12:45-46).

Read revelations.

I know you haven't studied the book because you've not even read the title.

The trumpets and vials are separate events...

Irrelevant. The first seal is not opened until we are where we belong with our bridegroom.

[E.g. Pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib] I just wanted to know so that I can be prepared for that...

We don't prepare by stocking up on: gold, guns and groceries. Read chapters 2 and 3 of Revelation. You don't have to make it to chapter 4.

...Though the events are not chronologically placed in Revelation...

You sure about that? Dan 7:25 Rev. 11:2–3; 12:6; 13:5

...[P]eople need to stop getting other people's hopes up like this...

Have you given up on the promise of his return? 2 Pe 3:4.  Do you have this hope? Are you purifying yourself because of it? 1 Jn 3:3

'Pre-trib' rapture is not biblical.  Talk about false-hope.

1 Thess 5:9 Do you come from a works-based religion?

We suffer the tribulation.

Persecution (par for the course [1 Thess. 2:15; Rev. 12:13]) and the Great Tribulation (Re 6-18) are not the same thing.

What is the significance of Sept 23, 2017?

The Revelation 12 sign in the sky. Parenthetical chapters in the Book of Revelation: Chapter 10 (The “Little Book”, The Seven Thunders), Chapter 11 (The Temple, The Two Witnesses), Chapter 12 (The Woman, The Man Child & the Dragon), Chapter 13 (The Two Beasts) [Missler].

...Christ's return isn't until the end of the tribulation...

The rapture is the next event on the prophetic calendar.

He can't teach me that it has reigned fire and blood and burned up a third of trees and all the green grass, a third of our oceans are currently blood red, a great star has fallen from heaven and poisoned a third of our waters, The lights sources in the sky have gone a third dark, locusts with the power of scorpions have infested the earth from the bottomless pit, and angels have slayed a third of humanity...

The first seal has not been opened yet. It cannot be opened until the bride is where she belongs (Re 4:4). Maybe you're confusing real life with a movie you've seen. Signs/birth pangs only tell you that the end is not yet (Mt 24:6). These are only the beginning of sorrows (Mt 24:8).   Good luck with the locust through.

[Have you given up on the promise of his return? Do you have this hope? Are you purifying yourself because of it? 1 Jn 3:3] I think its unwise to assume that because I do not believe in this next date the date setters have come up with for the rapture...

Who set a date for the rapture?
...that I have "given up" on Christ's return.

It's a yes or no question. Have you given up on the promise of his return? Do you have this hope? Are you purifying yourself because of it? 1 Jn 3:3
