XVI. SEAL # 7 = THE WRATH OF GOD! There
are several things that we can SEE about the "wrath of God." THE SEVENTH SEAL is the WRATH OF GOD! The saints of GOD do not experience this! But they do go through the great tribulation period until Jesus returns the 2nd time.
And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. (Note what Jesus said, Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (KJV) 1 Corinthians 15:51-54 = NO MORE death–NO MORE resurrection! For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (This passage is the answer to the question about the bodily dead who were saved and the saved one who are alive! It has nothing to do with a so called "secret rapture!" It simply states that those who are saved and living will not precede or go before (= KJV "prevent") those saved who have died, BUT that those who have died will be resurrected FIRSTLY (an adverb telling "when") and THEN, SECONDLY, the living shall be changed (according to 1 Cor. 15:51) and BOTH will be caught up together to meet the Lord Jesus in the clouds.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. (KJV)
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: (KJV)
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? 9And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. (KJV) Revelation 10:4 Mark 13:31-33 |
