Bible Question: will people be saved during tribulation? |
Bible Answer: Hello BobW, To answer your question, yes there will be people saved during the tribulation. Actually, as I understand this book of prophecy, a great number will be saved- even more in the 7 years than during the church age! Rev 7:14 tells us, "I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." (NASB) If we take careful note, in Rev. 9, the purpose of the plagues is to bring man to the end of himself so that he will turn to God. For instance, back in Rev. 8:7 God is using His creation to bring man to an end of himself by reducing oxygen, moisture ans water. In 8:12 God is reducing the amount of sunlight. These are all (designed if you will) to bring man to repentance. Revelation is about a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ. In Rev. 19:10 we see that, "...the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." (NASB) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
