According to you. But nowhere does the Book of Revelation, when describing the first 5 Seals, say ANYTHING about them being due to the wrath of God. However, Revelation does say this: Revelation 12:9 So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives...

As is the standard pre-trib narrative, you equate "the wrath" with "the tribulation." But not a single biblical verse equates the two things. Pure presumption.

Paul used the term to apply to himself in 2 Corinthians 12:2 -- I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a one was caught up/harpazo to the third heaven.

Christians are raptured when they die in the sense that their souls ascend to be with the Lord. Whereas the term rapture is used more exclusively to apply to the time when their physical dead bodies will be made immortal and will ascend to be with the Lord.

The following quote from this article is not accurate: "In fact, the most widespread End Times interpretation today, which falls under the rubric of futurism, has a most unlikely source: the Jesuits." The futurist interpretation of End Time prophecies was the norm for the Ante-Nicene Church...

11:2 καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἔσωθεν [outside] τοῦ ναοῦ ἔκβαλε [cast out] ἔξω [out (-side)]...

Your opinion only, to which Clare73 correctly answered. The people alive during much of the period of the Apostles certainly did believe in the return of Christ in their day, although He never told them any such thing. On the contrary, He told them “It is not for you to know times or seasons...

This literally reads "He will appear out [of the heavenly tabernacle] a second time..." In the context, the passage is speaking about the two in-and-out appearances Christ must make with His shed blood into the heavenly Holy of Holies, per the type foreshadowed in Leviticus 16's Day of Atonement...

If Satan has not already been cast into the lake of fire, then Christ has not yet "already defeated all His enemies." As you claimed He has.

With all due respect, anyone who believes that Satan has already been cast into the lake of fire is delusional. You say, "He has already defeated all His enemies." The Scripture says, 1 Cor. 15:26 The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. ... So when this corruptible has put on...

"The second coming of Christ" is not a term ever found in the NT. It is a doctrine of men, and it only serves to bring confusion to the discussion of end time events. 1) The parousia will be preceded by the Abomination of Desolation, the Great Tribulation, false christs, wars, famines and...

Because you and your commentary said the prophecies I quoted were fulfilled in the past, and they weren't. Egypt was never depopulated when you say it was. Ezekiel 29:10 …“I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate from Migdol [N. Egypt] to Syene [= Aswan, S Egypt], even unto the...

You provide an unsupported opinion, which in no way was historically fulfilled. This is religious dogma you are parroting, not history. A good source for the history of Babylonian invasion of Egypt, and the restoration of government in Egypt shortly thereafter, can be found in Velikovsky's...

Thank you for pointing out that exousia means right/privilege/authority; NOT "power." Exousia is correctly translated as “authority,” that is, lawful jurisdiction. Whereas dunamis means actual “force,” that is, authority put into action. After Christ receives the scroll from God’s right hand...

"...things which must shortly [ἐν τάχει] take place." ἐν τάχει means "quickly; with speed/speedily." That is, the events will take place in short order, but NOT necessarily soon. Revelation always uses naos in reference to the heavenly sanctuary, not an earthly one. We can know that is the case...
