Barbara; there isn't any Scriptural support for the idea of a Rapture before the Lord's coming. And as far as all these things happening that no one regards or takes warning; this is where we must be patient and persevere. All these things are being sent by God; but the world won't acknowledge that, and call it natural or man made. The reason for the tribulation is that men would repent.
Barbara: No. That's what is happening now. It will get worse. Narrow is The Way, few there be that find it. Most churches have fallen away, they have grown cold,they're not preaching all Truth.We are in The Tribulation. The Great Tribulation is bitting are Our Heels.
The book of Revelation, are these things to happen after the rapture? I don't understand how sinners can be told what Satan has for them for eternity-Hell-and still they follow Satan.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for loving us like HE does!!
Ron, I believe you are right. However, concerning the name of the book The Revelation of Jesus Christ given to St. John to write gives all of us human being the whole story of God's divine plan from chapter 1 through 22. This book of Revelation gives us more than enough knowledge to get to paradise. What a blessing glory be to God in the highest. Amen!
God went through great pains, and many, many holy men sacrificed everything, to bring us the whole Bible as we have it today: it must mean that He has A LOT to say to us, when we are able to bear it. I don't think that God wants any of us to not use our brains, and the capacities of moral and intellectual knowledge; that's part of what we are in His image. But some things we must wait for.
Verse 4 - the seven thunders. A lot of people keep trying to figure out what they said but per verse 7 no one will know until the time. The Prophets knew the basics but John died being the only living person knowing the Complete mystery of God, completed! Do I have this right? What are your thoughts?
"And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, and cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roars: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices." From the coast of Israel the Angel's back is to the north: ( Jeremiah 1:14) "Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land." The Chronicle.
The little book is knowledge of the future, sweet because all want to know what will happen before it does. Once eaten, read and understood, it makes one sick. The end of days war is bitter because of the massive amount of radiation that travels the globe destroying DNA in all life forms. The war will cause a collapse of the ecology of earth. God warns us in advance in parables and symbolism.
Thanks! All things positive appreciated. Wife had cancer. Massive brain tumor. 6 mos prognosis. Took her off chemo and laid hands on her, asking the God of the universe to do His will. She was about shot when we opted for this. Paralysis, no control of lower extremities. That's when I saw the Master work. 3 days- up and in garden. 5 weeks tumor gone. That was 2 years ago. Still kicking,Glory be...
I know that Christ as it is written will be a stumbling block and that's because the world will think when the antichrist gets here that Christ has returned but if you love the Lord Jesus you will do what He says and wait! Don't leave the field but keep on working and don't leave the house top stay on watch for our Christ and when they say lets go to Jerusalem for Jesus will rapture us,don't go!
That's a lovely thought. Unfortunately it's just not what this prophecy entails. It speaks about the time period that is the last stretch of time unto the end. When Daniel was finally understood it was joyous because Daniel was required to unlock the rest of Rev. and the new revelations were commanded to be prophesied to all nations and people. The bitterness was as I said below. It happened.
To eat (absorb) the Word (Truth), it is sweet. But later, when you try to share it with others who don't care, or are not ready, it can make one feel bitter. Even Christ, the Word, can feel frustrated or sad at what was/is going on in the world. It grieved Father that he made men flesh ( Gen 6:6). Just like everyday life. You can love a song or movie and others say "meh." It can dampen spirit.
The next big falling away will be the untimely figs (remnant) when shaken by a mighty wind. Wind is doctrine. Some good, some bad. Apostacy creeping into churches, dulling truth cause many to leave God's remnant They decide the world has more to offer. It doesn't. It's an illusion of satan, spread by Rome's unity lies. God has standards. Lord Lord doesn't cut it. Obedience is required. Study daily

What made it sweet is that when Dan. became "unlocked" it opened wonderful truths like the 70 wk. prophecy and where we are in time,along with keys to Rev. The bitter part, called "The Great Disappointment" was when Jesus didn't come back when they thought. Miller's church went from 250 k down to just 50 in two weeks. There's another falling away. God bless, hope truth finds all who seek

The little scroll is book of Daniel. Tasted sweet when opened in mid 1800s (right on time at end of 2300 day prophecy in Dan.) Dan. unlocks Rev. Bitterness is they thought Yeshua was coming back that year. Oops.NO MAN KNOWS THE HOUR. Prophecy again before many... is for the new unveiled truth of the three angels messages in Rev 14:6-11 Rev says there will be beheadings for wit. of Jesus. God Bless
TO N. McKenzie - Rev.1:14; The whole book of Rev. is a prophesy from the Lord Jesus Himself - of the end times. Jesus is very serious about the painful death he experienced for us on the cross. He would not put anything spurious into His word. Every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God is - TRUE!!! The description is true. If you are saved - it's nothing to be afraid of.
Revelation 10:11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. "This prophecy is sent by commandment of God Almighty. Read and retain for reproof, instruction and your salvation. The following events mark world descent into spiritual damnation, or hell: the Syrian President will visit the United States for what appears to be a diplomacy visit. During the visit, the US will experience large-scale blackouts, particulary in the northeast, coastal and metro areas. Soon after, during the blackouts, the LORD JESUS CHRIST will save the faithful, children, teens, the destitute and others from around the world. Immediately proceeding this event, US coastal cities and military bases, beginning with NY, will fall under nuclear attack from Russia, China and others. Cities will lay desolate with the remaining people devastated and the world in chaos. Anarchy, famine, enslavement and horrible deaths will ensue. Repent and ask JESUS to save you from this hell. Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Does anybody think that in revelation chapter one verse fourteen where john describes how the son of man looks do you think that it's an actual description ?because the lord said to be aware of false images

This Angel that comes from Heaven, He is a Man, rather his foot is on Earth. The sea are the people He speaks to. His feet are fire, rather the things He speaks of will burn in the hearts of these people. He will reveal the Thunders. He will tell you when the end of the earth will be rather time no longer. With all His words John the revelator will return in spirit and take it to the Nations.
Robert, v. 10 (John ate the little book as he was instructed to do) V. 11 (He must prophesy again) It appears it was sealed, and the book was eaten by John, and John will prophesy of these things at a later date.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for loving us like HE does!!
and not write them down? Does anyone know ?
