We are already... in the Seals of Revelation 6.
In Matthew 24 and Mark 13 about the Signs of the End Jesus gave, they parallel the Seals of Revelation 6.
The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Seals cover the events Jesus foretold about kingdom against kingdom, famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. Jesus called that time "the beginning of sorrows".
We are ALREADY IN that "beginning of sorrows" period today, and have been for a while.
We have seen nation fighting against nation in war for decades.
We have seen pestilences, AIDS, Ebola, Covid, West Nile, etc.
We have seen earthquakes actually increase in number.
We have seen famines (Africa, Indonesia, India, etc.)
Anyone that HAS NOT seen the evidence of those above things already must have their head buried in the sand!
WHAT IS COMING?
Look in Revelation 6 and notice what the 5th Seal is about.
What's coming next is about the persecution of God's elect, particularly Christ's saints being persecuted like the Old Testament saints were. Have we already seen the start of this? Yes, but more in the middle east and far east than in the West. Radicals are cutting heads off, and it includes Christians and Jews especially. It is becoming like what Lord Jesus said for the end, that a time will come when 'they' will think they do God a service by killing Christ's servants (Matthew 24:9; Luke 21:16-17; John 2:16).
Then... the time of "great tribulation" will begin with the placing of the "abomination of desolation" idol in Jerusalem by the coming false-Messiah. That will be a time of no wars, a time of fake world peace with the "dragon" only in power over all the earth. But for those of us who remain faithful in Christ, he will try to destroy us.
