Most as scripture says ,will be spiritually dead as they will sleep with the whore(no longer virgin)however most will come out of her when the below happens

Mark 13:9 "But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for My sake,, for a testimony against them."

Mark 13:11 "But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost [Spirit]."

When this time comes into being in the very near future, it will not be the elect of God that does the speaking, but the Holy Spirit speaking in and through the mouths of His elect. Every one of these individuals will be delivered before these false councils before the final day of this earth age. This is why Peter would say to the people in Acts 2, on Pentecost day; "This is that which was spoken of by Joel the Prophet."

This is the next time true tongues will be spoken,and it will be undeniable ,that's when most will wake up.

Not to make this a rapture thread as we have many,but I don't understand why they hope to escape when scripture clearly teaches

Luke 21:17 "And ye shall be hated of all men for My name's sake."

Count on the fact that all men and women that do not have the seal of God in their mind, will hate and be disgusted with you. They will not be able to see the truth, and no matter what you say, when their life is sold out to their traditions and false doctrines, they would sell their own mothers in the name of religion. Remember that as Satan stands there in Jerusalem, telling them that he is Christ, doing the lying wonders that he will be doing, they will hate you when you go against their christ. We see this now in the world, for when one religion comes against another, people are willing to die for their religious cause. This is why we put on the gospel armor of Christ, so that we can stand against the fiery darts of Satan in that day.

Ephesians 6:10 "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might."

In the power of your might? Of course not, in the power and might of the Holy Spirit, standing ready to be used as He sees fit.

Ephesians 6:11 "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."

Bank on it, Satan is coming against you with everything that he has. However, with the full gospel armor on and in place in your mind you will be well protected. You are to care what God thinks, and what men think just doesn't matter when you have the victory.

Luke 21:18 "But there shall not an hair of your head perish."

They can't touch you. Above we quoted from Revelation 9:4, and in that verse God orders Satan and his fallen angels to leave you alone. God gave Satan the authority to do what he is going to do in that hour of temptation, when He had Michael and his angels kick Satan and his angels out of heaven. God created Satan to be the most beautiful of all His creation, and because of that beauty, one third of all God's children went and followed Satan in that first earth age. God gave strict orders also to Satan to touch not those with the seal of God in their foreheads.

Remember that this is one of the seven seal or things that will take place in the time of the end. Your brain is in your "in your forehead", and God expects you to use it in your preparation to stand against Satan. When you know that Satan is a liar, how can he be a temptation to you; He can't tempt you for you see him for what he is. God expects to use you to let that truth that you have placed in your mind spread out over the world where you are. Whether you know it or not, this is an exciting time to live for we have the opportunity to watch the entire plan of God unfold right before our eyes, and be a part of it. Even the prophets wanted to live at in this generation, and you are living it.

Luke 21:19 "In your patience possess ye your souls."

2Peter 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

2Peter 2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

2Peter 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

2Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

2Peter 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

2Peter 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:

2Peter 3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
What happened?? You didn't like 2 Peter 3:7??
[7] But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

You wouldn't be scoffing at that now would you?

The parable of the 10 foolish virgins informs us as to why the Bridegroom delays His coming. The bride isn't ready. She's asleep.
