7th chapter Revelation

Verses 1 through 8

This happened already. We are currently in the fifth event of the 7. Things will get worse before they get better. Right now we believe we are saved while we ignore everything Jesus said and did before He was crucified. Of the children of Jacob that were sealed, Dan is omitted and Manasseh is included. We will understand it better by and by.

Verses 9 through 14

These are gentiles. You cannot come out of anything unless you first go into it. God will not save you from tribulation but through tribulation. ACTS 14:22

Verses 15 through 17

In all 7 churches, blessings only come to overcomers. If God has said He will wipe tears in Isaiah 25:8 and Revelation 7:17 and 21:4 it is our job to make sure tears are there.

TexaCan Loc: Homeward Bound!

Good morning Fred, I believe that this chapter takes place in the second half of the tribulation. GOD chooses 12,000 young Jewish men from each tribe and supernaturally seals and gives them knowledge that HE wants them to teach during this time. They will be protected from all harm. I believe that verse 9 means exactly what it says. The people come from all different nations. They were killed during the tribulation. What do you mean "it is our job to make sure tears are there"?

Like David in 2 Samuel 24:24 we should not offer to God that which cost us nothing.
