Revelation ClassSeals and Rapture Review
2
A few considerations- Many Christians call the
70th week of Daniel the Tribulation. The Bible
never calls this period of time that. The only
Tribulation period referred to in the Bible is
the Great Tribulation, a short period of time
after the abomination of desolation, in the midst
of the 70th week of Daniel.-We are not
dispensational in our thought or theology-We
are, as a matter of dogma, pre-millennial in our
view of the Rapture.
3
First, What is the Rapture?
4
What is the Rapture?
  • The Rapture
  • 1 Cor. 1550 I declare to you, brothers, that
    flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of
    God, nor does the perishable inherit the
    imperishable.
  • 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery We will not all
    sleep, but we will all be changed--

5
How will we be changed?
  • 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at
    the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the
    dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be
    changed.
  • 53 For the perishable must clothe itself with
    the imperishable, and the mortal with
    immortality.

6
How will we be changed?
Rom 823 And not only this, but also we
ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit,
even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting
eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption
of our body.
  • 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at
    the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the
    dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be
    changed.
  • 53 For the perishable must clothe itself with
    the imperishable, and the mortal with
    immortality.

7
We will be changed in an instant, however the
whole event of the Rapture may take longer
  • He will come in the clouds
  • There will be an announcement of His coming and a
    trumpet call
  • The dead in Christ will rise first
  • Then we who are alive and remain will be caught
    up(changed in an instant)
  • Then we will be gathered together to meet the
    Lord in the air!2Th 21 Now we request you,
    brethren, with regard to the coming of our Lord
    Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him,
    Mat 2431 "And He will send forth His angels
    with A GREAT TRUMPET and THEY WILL GATHER
    TOGETHER His elect from the four winds, from one
    end of the sky to the other.
  • Mat 2432 "Now learn the parable from the fig
    tree when its branch has already become tender
    and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer
    is near
  • Mat 2433 so, you too, when you see all these
    things, recognize that He is near, right at the
    door.
  • Mat 2434 "Truly I say to you, this generation
    will not pass away until all these things take
    place.

8
The main support for the Rapture is this verse
  • 1 Thess. 415 According to the Lord's own word,
    we tell you that we who are still alive, who are
    left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly
    not precede those who have fallen asleep.
  • 16 For the Lord himself will come down from
    heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of
    the archangel and with the trumpet call of God,
    and the dead in Christ will rise first.

9
  • 17 After that, we who are still alive and are
    left will be caught up together (gathered
    together) with them in the clouds to meet the
    Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord
    forever.
  • 18 Therefore encourage each other with these
    words.

10
  • 17 After that, we who are still alive and are
    left will be caught up together with them in the
    clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we
    will be with the Lord forever.
  • 18 Therefore encourage each other with these
    words.
  • Strong's 726. arpazw harpazoto seize--catch
    (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force),
    gathered.
  • In Latin this is RAPIO. It is from rapio that we
    get the word Rapture.
  • Thus, "Rapture" has the literal meaning of being
    caught up, gathered, or snatched away.

11
The Rapture is the most glorious event that will
ever occur in history. It is when the Church
(both those who have died and those who are
alive, will be taken to be with Jesus Christ.
This is the first resurrection. This is the
glorious appearing of Jesus Christ to the world!
  • When does this event occur?

12
First, what do most Biblical scholars agree upon
2nd Coming of Christ
  • Whether pre-trib, post-trib, or pre-wrath, most
    pre-millennial scholars agree on the following
    timeline of events

15
As we examine the seals, we cant help but notice
how they follow the Olivet discourse given by
Jesus to the disciples when they asked Him what
the signs of His coming would beSo we will
examine the seals along side Matt. 25 and the
result will be a very clear picture of end time
events!
16
7 Years Total - 3.5 of Anti-Christ Rule,
Abomination, Great Tribulation, and then wrath,
Armageddon, 2nd coming
The week begins with the 7 year covenant in
Dan.927 The rise of the Roman system out of
which the pseudo Christ comes to power. This
begins the breaking of the seals.

The 1st 5 Seals are Broken, The Four Horsemen are
Released All of this takes place in the first
half of the 70th week of Daniel.

Martyrs
Mt. 247c-10 Rev. 67-8 Death by sword, hunger,
beasts of the earth. Rev. 1315 This will be
when those who refuse to receive the mark will
starve and be killed by the anti-christ. Rev.
137-10 Lk. 2116
Mt. 245 Rev. 61-2 Ten
nations give Anti- Christ powers. Anti-Christ
makes his 7 year covenant with Israel. 70th week
begins. Rev. 13 Rev. 11 Israel Rebuilds
their temple Rev. 112-6 Two witnesses prophesy
for 3.5 years.Likely Enoch and Elijah. (Mal.
45) or Moses and Elijah, both of whom were
reported in Jewish tradition as having been taken
up to God without dying. The LORDs secret burial
of Moses (Deut 346) led to the tradition that he
had not died but ascended Elijahs being
taken up is described in 2 Kings 21-12. Matt.
1113-15171112 John 121 (John was not Elijah
re-incarnated!) The two witnesses prophecy this
entire time until the 6th seal is broken.
Mt. 246-7a Rev. 63-4 3 of the 10 nations
refuse to give Anti-Christ power, he comes
against them with a sword and uproots
them. Anti-Christ conquers. Rev. 13
Mt. 247b Rev. 65-6 Famine - This may lead to
the implementation of the mark of the

Lets examine the first 6 seals. The First seal
the Antichrist
Matthew 243-5 As He was sitting on the Mount of
Olives, the disciples came to Him privately,
saying, "Tell us, when will these things happen,
and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of
the end of the age?" (4) And Jesus answered and
said to them, "See to it that no one misleads
you. (5) "For many will come in My name,
saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead
many. 1John 218 Children, it is the last hour
and just as you heard that antichrist is coming,
even now many antichrists have appeared from
this we know that it is the last hour.
Revelation 61-2 Then I saw when the Lamb broke
one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the
four living creatures saying as with a voice of
thunder, "Come." (2) I looked, and behold, a
white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow and
a crown was given to him, and he went out
conquering and to conquer. Dan 927 "And he will
make a firm covenant with the many for one week
This will begin the 70th week of Daniel (the
Tribulation).

Who is the Pseudo Christ?Hes Jewish John
543 "I have come in My Father's name, and you
do not receive Me if another comes in his own
name, you will receive him. Jesus spoke this to
the Pharisees they will embrace the antichrist
as messiah.
28
He will come out of the Roman political system
Daniel 926-27 "Then after the sixty-two weeks
the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and
the people of the prince who is to come will
destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end
will come with a flood even to the end there
will be war desolations are determined. (27)
"And he will make a firm covenant with the many
for one week, but in the middle of the week he
will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering
and on the wing of abominations will come one who
makes desolate, even until a complete
destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out
on the one who makes desolate."
29
The fulfillment of this occurred in history when
the Roman legions under Titus Vespasian destroyed
Jerusalem and the Temple in 70 A.D. Jesus
foretold this in Luke 1944 This is most
likely the UN possibly the security council.
30
So the Anti-Christ will be of Jewish decent but
come out of the Roman Empire. He will allow
Israel to rebuild their temple!
31
I have asked several Rabbis how they will know
when the Messiah comes. They all say that
whoever brings peace to their land and allows
them to rebuild their temple will be the
Messiah.Israel believes the Anti(pseudo, in
place of, self proclaimed-christ is the Messiah!
32
At first, the antichrist will bring peace to the
middle eastHe will sign a peace treaty with
Israel the 70th week of Daniel, commonly called
the 7 year Tribulation period, begins
33
Dan 927 "And he will make a firm covenant with
the many for one week, but in the middle of the
week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain
offering and on the wing of abominations will
come one who makes desolate, even until a
complete destruction, one that is decreed, is
poured out on the one who makes desolate.This
is the breaking of the first seal
34
First sealMat 244 And Jesus answered and
said to them, "See to it that no one misleads
you. Mat 245 "For many will come in My name,
saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will mislead many.
Rev 61 Then I saw when the Lamb broke one of
the seven seals, and I heard one of the four
living creatures saying as with a voice of
thunder, "Come." Rev 62 I looked, and behold,
a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow
and a crown was given to him, and he went out
conquering and to conquer. Rev 137 It was
also given to him to make war with the saints and
to overcome them, and authority over every tribe
and people and tongue and nation was given to
him.
35
10 Kings will give the antichrist power the ten
toes of Daniels visionThese 10 kings only have
power for one hour, and they do not yet have a
kingdomRev 1712 "The ten horns which you saw
are ten kings who have not yet received a
kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with
the beast for one hour. Rev 1713 "These have
one purpose, and they give their power and
authority to the beast. Rev 1714 "These will
wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will
overcome them, because He is Lord of lords and
King of kings, and those who are with Him are the
called and chosen and faithful."
36
The UN Security Council has 15 members, but only
5 are permanent. All others serve for 2 years.
  • January, 2003
  • France ,Permanent Member
  • Russian Federation, Permanent Member
  • United Kingdom, Permanent Member
  • United States, Permanent Member
  • China, Permanent Member
  • Germany, Syrian Arab Republic
  • Guinea, Mexico, Pakistan, Spain, Angola
  • Bulgaria, Cameroon, ChileThose in yellow are
    against what we did in Iraq. It would be easy to
    reconfigure this council to 10 nations which
    could be the 10 kings who give their power to the
    last world leader to make peace with Israel!

37
But three of those leaders will disagree with the
arrangement, and they will be subdued. Daniel
723 "Thus he said 'The fourth beast will be a
fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be
different from all the other kingdoms and will
devour the whole earth and tread it down and
crush it.Dan 724 'As for the ten horns, out of
this kingdom ten kings will arise and another
will arise after them, and he will be different
from the previous ones and will subdue three
kings. Daniel 725 'He will speak out against
the Most High and wear down the saints of the
Highest One, and he will intend to make
alterations in times and in law and they will be
given into his hand for a time, times, and half a
time.

Three of the leaders will oppose the peace treaty
with Israel and the one world governmental
system!Dan 78 "While I was contemplating the
horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came
up among them, and three of the first horns were
pulled out by the roots before it and behold,
this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man
and a mouth uttering great boasts.
39
But three of those leaders will disagree with the
arrangement, and they will be uprooted.

The Antichrist will only have power for about 3.5
years!
40
The antichrist will only have power for 3 and ½
years! This is the first half of the 70th week
of Daniel!Then the sixth seal is
brokenRevelation Chapter 6.The last half of
the 70th week of Daniel Gods wrath will be
unleashed on this planet, and no one will have
control.Rev 615 Then the kings of the earth
and the great men and the commanders (this
includes the antichrist)and the rich and the
strong and every slave and free man hid
themselves in the caves and among the rocks of
the mountains Rev 616 and they said to the
mountains and to the rocks, "Fall on us and hide
us from the presence of Him who sits on the
throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb Rev 617
for the great day of their wrath has come, and
who is able to stand?"
41
Rev 1712 "The ten horns which you saw are ten
kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but
they receive authority as kings with the beast
for one hour. Rev 1713 "These have one
purpose, and they give their power and authority
to the beast. 17 "For God has put it in their
hearts to execute His purpose by having a common
purpose, and by giving their kingdom to the
beast, until the words of God will be fulfilled.
Rev 131 And the dragon stood on the sand of
the seashore. Then I saw a beast coming up out of
the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on
his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were
blasphemous names. 2 And the beast which I saw
was like a leopard, and his feet were like those
of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a
lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his
throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his
heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal
wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed
and followed after the beast

Rev. 135 There was given to him a mouth
speaking arrogant words and blasphemies, and
authority to act for forty-two months was given
to him. He has authority the first half only!

The Second seal - war
Revelation 63-4 When He broke the second seal,
I heard the second living creature saying,
"Come." (4) And another, a red horse, went out
and to him who sat on it, it was granted to take
peace from the earth, and that men would slay one
another and a great sword was given to
him. Matthew 246-8 "You will be hearing of
wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not
frightened, for those things must take place, but
that is not yet the end. (7) "For nation will
rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom
Dan 78 "While I was contemplating the horns,
behold, another horn, a little one, came up among

And that the earth would slaughter one
another. The best Greek scholars call this war
this same phrase is used to describe battles
between nations, not individuals
50
The Third seal - Famine
Revelation 65-6 When He broke the third seal, I
heard the third living creature saying, "Come." I
looked, and behold, a black horse and he who sat
on it had a pair of scales in his hand. (6) And
I heard something like a voice in the center of
the four living creatures saying, "A quart of
wheat for a denarius (a days wage), and three
quarts of barley for a denarius and do not
damage the oil and the wine." Matthew 247b, and
in various places there will be famines This will
lead to the total collapse of the economy and the
start of the mark of the beast to buy and
sell Revelation 1315-17 And it was given to
him to give breath to the image of the beast, so
that the image of the beast would even speak and
cause as many as do not worship the image of the
beast to be killed. (16) And he causes all, the
small and the great, and the rich and the poor,
and the free men and the slaves, to be given a
mark on their right hand or on their forehead,
(17) and he provides that no one will be able to
buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark,
either the name of the beast or the number of his
name.

sell Revelation 1315-17 And it was given to
him to give breath to the image of the beast, so
that the image of the beast would even speak and

(17) and he provides that no one will be able to
buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark,
either the name of the beast or the number of his
name.
Rev. 1318 says the number is that of a man, six
hundred and sixty six. The European Union
Parliament has about 700 seats. Today, they have
filled about 640. They just added ten new
nations. Could seat 666 have something to do with
this?
52
The Fourth seal - Death
Revelation 67-8 When the Lamb broke the fourth
seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living
creature saying, "Come." (8) I looked, and
behold, an ashen horse and he who sat on it had
the name Death and Hades was following with him.
Authority was given to them over a fourth of the
earth, to kill with sword and with famine and
with pestilence and by the wild beasts of the
earth. Matthew 246-13 "You will be hearing of
wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not
frightened, for those things must take place, but
that is not yet the end. (7) "For nation will
rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,
and in various places there will be famines
(famines always lead to more pestilence) and
earthquakes. (8) "But all these things are
merely the beginning of birth pangs. Pestilence
is sickness there are over 30 new diseases in
the world today since the 1960s! SARS is the
latest one.
53
The Fifth seal Christians killed
Revelation 69-11 When the Lamb broke the fifth
seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of
those who had been slain because of the word of
God, and because of the testimony which they had
maintained (10) and they cried out with a loud
voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true,
will You refrain from judging and avenging our
blood on those who dwell on the earth?" (11)
And there was given to each of them a white robe
and they were told that they should rest for a
little while longer, until the number of their
fellow servants and their brethren who were to be
killed even as they had been, would be completed
also. Matthew 24(9) "Then they will deliver you
to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will
be hated by all nations because of My name. (10)
"At that time many will fall away (The
Apostasy)and will betray one another and hate one
another. (11) "Many false prophets will arise
and will mislead many. (12) "Because
lawlessness is increased, most people's love will
grow cold. (13) "But the one who endures to the
end, he will be saved.

Rev 137 It was also given to him to make war
with the saints and to overcome them, and
authority over every tribe and people and tongue
and nation was given to him. 8 All who dwell on
the earth will worship him, everyone whose name
has not been written from the foundation of the
world in the book of life of the Lamb who has
been slain. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him
hear. 10 If anyone is destined for captivity, to
captivity he goes if anyone kills with the
sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is
the perseverance and the faith of the saints.
55
The Fifth seal Part II Not all Christians are
killed
Matthew 1017-33 "But beware of men, for they
will hand you over to the courts and scourge you
in their synagogues (18) and you will even be
brought before governors and kings for My sake,
as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. (19)
"But when they hand you over, do not worry about
how or what you are to say for it will be given
you in that hour what you are to say. (20) "For
it is not you who speak, but it is the Spirit of
your Father who speaks in you. (21) "Brother
will betray brother to death, and a father his
child and children will rise up against parents
and cause them to be put to death. (22) "You
will be hated by all because of My name, but it
is the one who has endured to the end who will be
saved. (23) "But whenever they persecute you in
one city, flee to the next for truly I say to
you, you will not finish going through the cities
of Israel until the Son of Man comes. (32)
"Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men,
I will also confess him before My Father who is
in heaven. (33) "But whoever denies Me before
men, I will also deny him before My Father who is
in heaven.
56
Rev 210 'Do not fear what you are about to
suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some
of you into prison, so that you will be tested,
and you will have tribulation for ten days. Be
faithful until death, and I will give you the
crown of life. Rev 211 'He who has an ear, let
him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He
who overcomes will not be hurt by the second
death.'
57
Mar 136 "Many will come in My name, saying, 'I
am He!' and will mislead many. Mar 137 "When
you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be
frightened those things must take place but
that is not yet the end. Mar 138 "For nation
will rise up against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom there will be earthquakes in various
places there will also be famines. These things
are merely the beginning of birth pangs. 9 "But
be on your guard for they will deliver you to
the courts, and you will be flogged in the
synagogues, and you will stand before governors
and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them.
10 "The gospel must first be preached to all
the nations. 11 "When they arrest you and hand
you over, do not worry beforehand about what you
are to say, but say whatever is given you in that
hour for it is not you who speak, but it is the
Holy Spirit. 12 "Brother will betray brother to
death, and a father his child and children will
rise up against parents and have them put to
death. 13 "You will be hated by all because of
My name, but the one who endures to the end, he
will be saved. 14 "But when you see the
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION standing where it
should not be (let the reader understand), then
those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains.
58
This is telling us not all Christians will be
killed
Matthew 1017-33 "But beware of men, for they
will hand you over to the courts and scourge you
in their synagogues (18) and you will even be
brought before governors and kings for My sake,
as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. (19)
"But when they hand you over, do not worry about
how or what you are to say for it will be given
you in that hour what you are to say. (20) "For
it is not you who speak, but it is the Spirit of
your Father who speaks in you. (21) "Brother
will betray brother to death, and a father his
child and children will rise up against parents
and cause them to be put to death. (22) "You
will be hated by all because of My name, but it
is the one who has endured to the end who will be
saved. (23) "But whenever they persecute you in
one city, flee to the next for truly I say to
you, you will not finish going through the cities
of Israel until the Son of Man comes. (32)
"Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men,
I will also confess him before My Father who is
in heaven. (33) "But whoever denies Me before
men, I will also deny him before My Father who is
in heaven.
This is speaking to the Church, not Israel.
Notice Israel will persecute the Church during
this time with the antichrist they will think
he is their Messiah! They are protected!
59
It is important to note that Israel will never be
persecuted by the antichrist. They will have a
treaty until he goes into the temple and
proclaims himself god. At that time Israel will
be taken to the wilderness and protected, and
144,000 Jews will be sealed and protected as they
go out and gather Israel to the wilderness
location!In fact, only the Church will be
persecuted!
60
This is when the church will be refined.Joh
1633 "These things I have spoken to you, so
that in Me you may have peace. In the world you
have tribulation, but take courage I have
overcome the world." Rom 835 Who will separate
us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or
distress, or persecution, or famine, or
nakedness, or peril, or sword? (note how all
these things we will endure in the first 5
seals!)Jesus told us in the letters to the
churchesRev 210 'Do not fear what you are
about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to
cast some of you into prison, so that you will be
tested, and you will have tribulation for ten
days. Be faithful until death, and I will give
you the crown of life.

Rom 53 And not only this, but we also exult in
our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings
about perseverance 4 and perseverance, proven
character and proven character, hope 5 and
hope does not disappoint, because the love of God
has been poured out within our hearts through the
Holy Spirit who was given to us.
62
The Fifth seal Part 4
It is in the midst of the 5th seal that the
antichrist will go into the temple and proclaim
himself god! As he is persecuting the church, he
will feel like he is more powerful than
God. Matthew 24(15) "Therefore when you see the
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION which was spoken of
through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy
place (let the reader understand), (16) then
those who are in Judea must flee to the
mountains. (17) "Whoever is on the housetop
must not go down to get the things out that are
in his house.
63
The Fifth seal Part 3
Dan 927 "And he will make a firm covenant with
the many for one week, but in the middle of the
week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain
offering and on the wing of abominations will
come one who makes desolate, even until a
complete destruction, one that is decreed, is
poured out on the one who makes desolate." Dan
1136 "Then the king will do as he pleases, and
he will exalt and magnify himself above every god
and will speak monstrous things against the God
of gods and he will prosper until the
indignation is finished, for that which is
decreed will be done.
During the intense persecution of beleivers, the
gospel will be preached to the whole
earth! Matthew 2414-19 "This gospel of the
kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a
testimony to all the nations, and then the end
will come. It is in the midst of the 5th seal
that the antichrist will go into the temple and
proclaim himself god! Matthew 24(15) "Therefore
when you see the ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION which
was spoken of through Daniel the prophet,
standing in the holy place (let the reader
understand), (16) then those who are in Judea
must flee to the mountains. (17) "Whoever is on
the housetop must not go down to get the things
out that are in his house.
The antichrist is now revealed!

What does the Bible say?Here is what we know
for sureJoh 336 "He who believes in the Son
has eternal life but he who does not obey the
Son will not see life, but the wrath of God
abides on him." 1Th 59 For God has not
destined us for wrath, but for obtaining
salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,1Th 110
and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He
raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues
us from the wrath to come. Rom 59 Much more
then, having now been justified by His blood, we
shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.
  • The first point that three of the views agree
    upon we will not be here for the wrath of God.

71
So, when does the wrath of God occur?Rom 25
But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant
heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in
the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous
judgment of God, (seventh seal trumpet
judgments)This comes at the end of the sixth
seal, when the wrath beginsRev 616 and they
said to the mountains and to the rocks, "Fall on
us and hide us from the presence of Him who sits
on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb
Rev 617 for the great day of their wrath has
come, and who is able to stand?"
  • The wrath begins at the breaking of the seventh
    seal. This is the trumpet judgments, and the
    last trumpet starts the bowls of wrath.

72
Why does the wrath come?Rev 69 When the Lamb
broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar
the souls of those who had been slain because of
the word of God, and because of the testimony
which they had maintained Rev 610 and they
cried out with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O
Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from
judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell
on the earth?" Rev 611 And there was given to
each of them a white robe and they were told
that they should rest for a little while longer,
until the number of their fellow servants and
their brethren who were to be killed even as they
had been, would be completed also. It is not a
judgment that leads to repentance, it is penalty
for sin! The judgment already took place when
they missed the rapture!
73
Mat 2511 "Later the other virgins also came,
saying, 'Lord, lord, open up for us.' Mat 2512
"But he answered, 'Truly I say to you, I do not
know you.' Mat 722 "Many will say to Me on
that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in
Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and
in Your name perform many miracles?' Mat 723
"And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew
you DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE
LAWLESSNESSRom 25 But because of your
stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are
storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath
and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
Rom 1219 Never take your own revenge,
beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for
it is written, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY,"
says the Lord.
74
Eph 55-6 For this you know with certainty, that
no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who
is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom
of Christ and God. (6) Let no one deceive you
with empty words, for because of these things the
wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
75
This will be a judgment on those who mistreated
the Church and refused to repent they took the
mark of the beast.  Rev 147 and he said with
a loud voice, "Fear God, and give Him glory,
because the hour of His judgment has come
worship Him who made the heaven and the earth and
sea and springs of waters."  This is the hour
we will escape Rev 310 'Because you have kept
the word of My perseverance, I also will keep you
from the hour of testing, that hour which is
about to come upon the whole world, to test those
who dwell on the earth. Rev 148 And another
angel, a second one, followed, saying, "Fallen,
fallen is Babylon the great, she who has made all
the nations drink of the wine of the passion of
her immorality." Rev 149 Then another angel, a
third one, followed them, saying with a loud
voice, "If anyone worships the beast and his
image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on
his hand, Rev 1410 he also will drink of the
wine of the wrath of God, which is mixed in full
strength in the cup of His anger and he will be
tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence
of the holy angels and in the presence of the
Lamb.

1Co 1519 If we have hoped in Christ in this

Note that the end is the end of the Church age.
This happens at the Rapture of the Church. The
fullness of the Gentiles have come in. The end
is when we have taken the Gospel to all nations.
Some may say this isnt the Churches job
  • Mat 2414 "This gospel of the kingdom shall be
    preached in the whole world as a testimony to all
    the nations, and then the end will come.

81
Act 16 So when they had come together, they
were asking Him, saying, "Lord, is it at this
time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?"
Act 17 He said to them, "It is not for you to
know times or epochs which the Father has fixed
by His own authority Act 18 but you will
receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon
you and you shall be My witnesses both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even
to the remotest part of the earth."
  • Mar 1615 And He said to them, "Go into all the
    world and preach the gospel to all creation.
  • Mar 1616 "He who has believed and has been
    baptized shall be saved but he who has
    disbelieved shall be condemned.

82
The Great commission is given to the Church! We
were given the Holy Spirit to fulfill the great
commission and see the fullness of the Gentiles
come in!So, when does the fullness of the
Gentiles come in?Rom 1125 For I do not want
you, brethren, to be uninformed of this
mystery--so that you will not be wise in your own
estimation--that a partial hardening has happened
to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has
come in Rom 1126 and so all Israel will be
saved
  • We find that the fullness of the Gentiles come in
    at the same time Israel recognizes Jesus as
    Messiah and is saved their hardened hearts are
    opened!
  • Israel embraces Christ as Messiah after the
    abomination of desolation. They are then taken
    to the wilderness and saved from the wrath of God
    and the persecution of Satan.

83
Rev 1213 And when the dragon saw that he was
thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman
who gave birth to the male child. Rev 1214 But
the two wings of the great eagle were given to
the woman, so that she could fly into the
wilderness to her place, where she was nourished
for a time and times and half a time, from the
presence of the serpent. Rev 1215 And the
serpent poured water like a river out of his
mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her
to be swept away with the flood. Rev 1216 But
the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened
its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon
poured out of his mouth. Dan 121 "Now at
that time Michael, the great prince who stands
guard over the sons of your people, will arise.
And there will be a time of distress such as
never occurred since there was a nation until
that time and at that time your people, everyone
who is found written in the book, will be
rescued. Dan 122 "Many of those who sleep in
the dust of the ground will awake, these to
everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and
everlasting contempt.
  • The woman is Israel she is protected for 3 ½
    years in the wilderness the last half of the
    70th week of Daniel.

84
Daniel 12 breakdownvs. 1 now at this time
When? When the AntiChrist is back at the Holy
Mountain. He will come to an end - an end of his
world peace and governance. Michael is always
seen as the protector of Gods people, even
Moses, in Jude, where he fights over the Body of
Moses. time of distress such as never occurred
since there was a nation until that time It is
highly significant that our Lord Jesus in the
Olivet Discourse (Matt 2421) picks up and
enlarges on this prediction, saying "For then
there will be great distress thlipsis unequaled
from the beginning of the world .Jesus in
context says this will take place just after the
Abomination of Desolation! (this is the breaking
of the 6th seal)
85
Daniel 12 continuedVs. 2 the Resurrection -
imperfect tense - an incomplete action - an
action and another action. Our Rabbis agree -
some will resurrect here for everlasting life,
the others will not resurrect now, but will stay
in the ground to their shame and be resurrected
for judgement later. (Midrash, Rambam, haMishnah,
Sanhedrin 10, Saadiah, HaRamban, and
Emunos).Jesus taught two resurections in John
528-29 by teaching a "general" resurrection of
the righteous and a general resurrection of the
wicked.At Daniel 122, the angel taught Daniel
that there would be a general resurrection of the
righteous and one for the wicked.Daniel 1213
speaks of a resurrection at the end of the age.
86
There are only two resurrections!This clarifies
Daniel 12Rev 204 Then I saw thrones, and they
sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And
I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded
because of their testimony of Jesus and because
of the word of God, and those who had not
worshiped the beast or his image, and had not
received the mark on their forehead and on their
hand and they came to life and reigned with
Christ for a thousand years. Rev 205 The rest
of the dead did not come to life until the
thousand years were completed. This is the first
resurrection. Rev 206 Blessed and holy is the
one who has a part in the first resurrection
over these the second death has no power, but
they will be priests of God and of Christ and
will reign with Him for a thousand years.
87
John has elsewhere indicated that the kingdom
reign will be shared by every believer who
overcomes (226-28 312, 21) and is purchased by
Christ's blood (510). Also, in 1 Corinthians
62-3, Paul clearly speaks of all believers--not
just martyrs--exercising judgment in the future.
Revelation 510 indicates that the kingdom will
be a "reign on the earth." The first
resurrection is the Rapture, and it happens after
the martyrs number is complete!This is just
after the 5th seal! Again we see a resurrection
taking place at the 6th seal!
88
And all Israel will be protected in the
WildernessRev 125 And she gave birth to a
son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations
with a rod of iron and her child was caught up
to God and to His throne. Rev 126 Then the
woman fled into the wilderness where she had a
place prepared by God, so that there she would be
nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty
days.(3.4 years)Rev 1214 But the two wings of
the great eagle were given to the woman, so that
she could fly into the wilderness to her place,
where she was nourished for a time and times and
half a time, from the presence of the serpent.
Whos the male child that was caught up
(raptured) at this point?
Rom 1125 For I do not want you, brethren, to be
uninformed of this mystery--so that you will not
be wise in your own estimation--that a partial
hardening has happened to Israel until the
fullness of the Gentiles has come in Rom 1126
and so all Israel will be saved just as it is
written, "THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, HE
WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB." Rom 1127
"THIS IS MY COVENANT WITH THEM, WHEN I TAKE AWAY
THEIR SINS."
Israel is blind until the abomination! Thats
when the fullness of the gentiles come in!
89
At this time a great multitude that no one can
count appears in heaven.This is the first
resurrection!(Rev 206) Blessed and holy is
the one who has a part in the first resurrection
over these the second death has no power, but
they will be priests of God and of Christ and
will reign with Him for a thousand years.
90
The first Resurrection the RaptureThe second
Resurrection judgmentRevelation 204-6 Then I
saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment
was given to them. And I saw the souls of those
who had been beheaded because of their testimony
of Jesus and because of the word of God, and
those who had not worshiped the beast or his
image, and had not received the mark on their
forehead and on their hand and they came to life
and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
(5) The rest of the dead did not come to life
until the thousand years were completed. This is
the first resurrection. (6) Blessed and holy is
the one who has a part in the first resurrection
over these the second death has no power, but
they will be priests of God and of Christ and
will reign with Him for a thousand years.
91
All of this happens at the sixth seal even what
Daniel prophesiedThe second Resurrection
judgmentRevelation 204-6 Then I saw thrones,
and they sat on them, and judgment was given to
them. And I saw the souls of those who had been
beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and
because of the word of God, and those who had not
worshiped the beast or his image, and had not
received the mark on their forehead and on their
hand and they came to life and reigned with
Christ for a thousand years. (5) The rest of
the dead did not come to life until the thousand

distress such as never occurred since there was a
nation until that time and at that time your
people, everyone who is found written in the
book, will be rescued. Dan 122 "Many of those

Matthew 2429-31 "But immediately after the
tribulation of those days THE SUN WILL BE
DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT,
AND THE STARS WILL FALL from the sky, and the
powers of the heavens will be shaken. (30) "And
then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in
the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth
will mourn, and they will see the SON OF MAN
COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF THE SKY with power and
great glory. (31) "And He will send forth His

wind. (14) The sky was split apart like a
scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain
and island were moved out of their places. (15)
Then the kings of the earth and the great men and
the commanders and the rich and the strong and
every slave and free man hid themselves in the
caves and among the rocks of the mountains (16)
and they said to the mountains and to the
rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the presence
of Him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath
of the Lamb (17) for the great day of their
wrath has come, and who is able to stand?"
