1 | Did OT saints go to heaven? | Dan 12:2 | CDBJ | 102833 | ||
Greetings Khuck, What translation are you using that suggest that there are seven scrolls and not seven seals on one scroll? Rev. 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. All the translations that I have only mention one book or scroll, which comes to us from the Koine Greek, and it is the accusative, neuter, singular of the noun, BIBILON, and there are seven seals on the one book that must be broken before the contents of the book can be revealed. The contents of the book is the wrath of God and everything that takes place before the scroll is opened only leads up to God’s wrath, namely the seven seals, which are not the wrath of God but the wrath or vengeance of the devil and his man for the hour, the antichrist. Believers will not experience God’s wrath! There are believers in the tribulation period that can claim this same promise so why would the rapture have to occur before the tribulation, since it isn’t the wrath of God? 1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Gave a great day, CDBJ |

The NIV is the translation that I often most use, but I love King James the best! Of course on this forum I am using NIV. I am wrong and your are correct regarding 7 seals. AND might I add... I err in my posting of seven seals for seven scrolls. (Which is an important point) Yet I wrote all of that posting to actually say that I believe that the Body of Christ will be raptured after the sixth seal is opened (broken) and before the seventh. I apologize for the error in my post. Hopefully I did not throw anyone else off of the mark of my objective. I maintain that the great multitude of every nation standing before the throne is the Church. As for me I believe the Great Tribulation takes place after the breaking of the seventh seal... I personally believe the trials faced during the breaking of the 1st five seals are the times we now endure. Why would the Church face God's wrath when they are the righteous of God in Christ. Christ has already endured the penalty of their iniquities. I believe those who endure the plagues in the 7 bowls and those who lived through the tyranny of the anti-christ and beast, called upon the named of the Lord and gave Him His due glory after the rapture. Now I am not responding to say my belief that these are the order of the events, should be yours, I was just responding to a question posed to me, which was; "what do I believe?" And this is really what I believe. -khuck PS I will say that the original post has me totally engrossed in the study of the book of Revelation to the point of re-thinking one of the points that I made... and you have pushed me to search even moreso. Being that it has been quite sometime since I really gave it more than a compulsory reading over... I deem this to be a good thing. Thank you |
