The Word says that we can escape all these thing..........and stand before the Son of man. I believe the WordPosted them many times:
The church will be in the tribulation which is a war against the saints, where some Christians are killed. No one is raptured away to be saved from this:
Luke 21
36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
The seed of the woman is the 12 tribes across the earth. Israel is the woman and her seed are obviously the 12 tribes that are across the earth.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.
Part of Israel will have its eyes opened when the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. The seed of the woman will realize that Jesus is the Messiah. The 144,000 first fruits is proof of this.These people are already Christians when satan goes to make war against them. There is no scriptural support for the idea that the church is gone, then non-Christians suddenly accept Christ and become new Christians in the Tribulation and then fulfill the role of the persecuted church in the tribulation. That is a concept that does not appear in scripture.
So there is absolutely no mention of the Church in anything you posted.
The fifth seal is the Great Tribulation. If you understood that the wrath of God is over at the 7th trumpet, you would realize that you are back in the seals in Revelation 13 and 14. Here is the great tribulation in Rev 14Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Rev 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
Rev 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. Luk 21:16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
Revelation 14
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
These verses are not the great tribulation. They occur in the wrath of God.Rev 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
Rev 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
Rev 11:5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
Rev 11:6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
Rev 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
I am not sure why you are unable to understand that when the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord CHRIST HAS SET UP HIS KINGDOM ON EARTH.Rev 11 says the wrath comes at the 7th trump not ends at the 7th trump. You are literally going against what is written and replacing with your own version.
Rev 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Rev 11:16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
Rev 11:17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
Rev 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
I'm not sure why you are unable to see that it is the time of judgement and wrath is over. I'm not sure why you cannot see Revelation 13 and 14 occurs in the seals. I'm not sure why you are unable to see that Rev 15 and 16 is the wrath of God and occurs in the same timeframe as the trumpets of wrath.
Some have eyes to see, and some don't. That's all I can come up with, but it seems to be the case.
