Bible Note: When you say “Even the remnant will be kept safe in the desert” are you referring to the 144,000 that God seals? And if this were the case then why would God bother to seal them and then take them out the next instance? Rev. 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. They were sealed for protection to escape God’s wrath that He was about to pour out on the earth. If you are talking about Rev. 12:14 those are also all Jews. Rev. 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. This is a reference to Israel the in verse 13. The Gentiles believers, that have trusted in Jesus, aren’t mentioned until the 17th verse. Rev. 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. The dragon couldn’t get at the Jews, that he despises, so he tries to take out his vengeance or the Christians. Matthew 24:15-21 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. This section in Matthew is a warning to believers not unbelievers and the tribulation period is the devious plan of Satan at work in the world through man. NO believer will suffer the wrath of God. 1 Thes. 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Every believer in Jesus Christ can claim this promise not just a select few! Therefore the tribulation period isn’t the wrath of God but the vengeance of the devil. Rev. 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. The way I see it the rapture and the wrath of God will occur on the same day just like it did in the days of Noah and Lot. They were delivered to safety and then BOOM the wrath of God was unleashed on the same day. Luke 17:27-29 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. 28Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; 29But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Notice it say until “THE DAY” and “THE SAME DAY”. The word “THEY”, is referring to unbelievers The left behind bunch are going to get clobbered and they are going to know it coming . Rev. 6:15-17 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? We are going to be looking up for deliverance Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. When it all starts to happen it will all take place very, very quickly and all of the unbelievers are going to be looking for a nice deep cave to hide in. 1 Thes. 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. This will be the most glorious sight that the world has ever beheld and every eye will see Him coming for both rapture and wrath! It won’t be some sneaking away of God’s elect and people wondering what happened! 2 Thes. 1:9-10 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 10When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. Have a great day, CDBJ |
