Bible Note: No post-tribulation rapture. Ebrain: Thanks for your reply. I just want to point out that in my previous post I was not saying that the rapture came at the end of the tribulation. Nor was I denying that God did not appoint his children to wrath. Instead I was saying that God's wrath is not poured out until after the opening of the sixth seal (Rev. 6:12-17). Since God has not appointed us to wrath and since God's wrath is poured out after the opening of the sixth seal, then the rapture must take place some time between the opening of the sixth and seventh seals. Also to say that the rapture occurs some time between the opening of the sixth and seventh seals is not to set a date. We know how long the tribulation period (Daniel's seventieth week) is, but we don't know how long after the beginning of the tribulation the sixth seal is opened. We do not know the date of the opening of the sixth seal. I just wanted to clarify that for anyone who is reading this thread. Grace to you, Kalos |
