The 'vast multitude' seen by John in Revelation 7-14 are not dead or spiritual people. You have added that idea the scripture.They are awakened in Revelation 7 [the crowd to large to number WEARING WHITE ROBES that John saw BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD]to see God begin the seven trumpets plagues
None of the souls go anywhere until Judgement.The souls of the unrepentant sinners don't go to Heaven...they goes to Hades ...
They are wearing WHITE ROBES LIKE THOSE WHO WERE SLAIN BECAUSE OF THEIR TESTIMONY OF JESUS MENTIONED IN REVELATION 6:9-11The 'vast multitude' seen by John in Revelation 7-14 are not dead or spiritual people. You have added that idea the scripture.
I can handle it, I am a majority with God, as I post the Bible truths.It looks like we've got off on a bad note keras..... Perhaps it will stay that way.....judging from the crazy stuff you're coming up with I think we will probably butt heads again in the future.
I totally DISAGREE with you on this point and that's were we are going to have to leave it. One of us is right and the other is wrong. Let's leave it at that - I will drop in here again with more in depth points if I have time.
But I can say right now - your THEORY is nonsense. I'm sure you loved that statement too..... sorry but I'm very blunt. I hope you can handle it..
Anyone could buy a white dressing gown tomorrow.They are wearing WHITE ROBES LIKE THOSE WHO WERE SLAIN BECAUSE OF THEIR TESTIMONY OF JESUS MENTIONED IN REVELATION 6:11
Revelation 7:9-14 The great multitude to large to number wearing white robes are seen BEFORE the Throne of God in Heaven...wake up.Anyone could buy a white dressing gown tomorrow.
Does that qualify them for the living in Rev 7:9 or the dead in Rev 6:9-11
This reply shows you to be a person who adds to scripture to suit your beliefs. A VERY serious matter.Revelation 7:9-14 The great multitude to large to number wearing white robes are seen BEFORE the Throne of God in Heaven...wake up.
Revelation 7:1-8 is a Earthly sceneThis reply shows you to be a person who adds to scripture to suit your beliefs. A VERY serious matter.
Heaven is NOT mentioned in Revelation 7... at all..
CorrectRevelation 7:1-8 is a Earthly scene
Wrong. The scripture does NOT say that.Revelation 7:9-14 is in Heaven
God allows them to speak at times for His purposes. Usually those souls are resting until their number should be complete. Revelation 6:11
I think that there are 3 1/2 years of distress, before the return of Christ. The antichrist is the 8th king of Revelation - he is also the 6th king, and the 8th king is also the devil.
I think that the woman gets taken to a place of safety for 3 1/2 years, during the rule of the Antichrist. The writer of Revelation (Cerinthus) called it the wilderness. Both Daniel and Revelation have 3 1/2 years. The final period of the 70 weeks was not fulfilled, only partly fulfilled - that leaves 3 1/2 years, at the end, and the rule of the antichrist.
There is a period, when things continue as normal (days of Noah) and yet there is distress at the same time, during the tribulation.
At the end of the 3 1/2 years, Christ returns with the angels, and just prior to that, the sun, moon and stars shut off all light.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
Although the above seems to be talking about Roman kings - with perhaps Nero or Galba (who knows?) as the king 'who is' - there might also be a future/present prophesy involved - the cryptic language of 'the beast that was, and is not' is about the devil - who is the 8th king.
It would be a lot easier if the writer had just used non-cryptic language all the time - but I think that the 8th king is the last king of the world, and there is a series of 8 kings - the 7th king only lasts a short time.
Jesus says something a bit different to the OT - he says that the stars fall to earth. During this period of darkness, I suspect that this means that fallen angels will fall to earth, before the final showdown. The tribulation period will be fairly normal to most people, going along as usual, until the return of Christ, 3 1/2 years later.
Every Bible Scholars are in agreement that Ezekiel 1 was a VISION..Correct
Wrong. The scripture does NOT say that.
Don't you take any notice of Ezekiel 1: and Acts 7:56? They prove the God's throne can be see on earth, if God will it. Remember heaven is a spiritual concept, for us it can be anywhere or everywhere.
Have you actually read Daniel 7:25 and Revelation 13:7 both are saying that the SAINTS WILL BE OVERCOME during the 42 months (3 1/2 years) reign of the Beast/Little Horn.That God's faithful Christian people from every tribe, race, nation and language do gather in all of the holy Land soon after all that area is cleared by the Sixth Seal, is well prophesied. John sees them there and later we know God's holy people are there from Daniel 7:25 and Revelation 13:7
Hi Davy, in your thought process, have you considered that the beast (the 8th king) will be cast into the lake of fire, at Jesus's return in Revelation 19:20 right before before the millennium begins?https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Revelation-19-20/I believe the 7th king is the coming Antichrist and also Satan. The 8th king is for the world to come, at the end of Rev.20.
Revelation 19:20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
I am going to tell you that God can do whatever He likes. If He wants those souls of the martyrs to cry out, He will enable them to do so.You have just admitted above that your version of "soul sleep" is wrong.
What are you going to do with this fact...
So much for 'Bible Scholars'. Matthew 11:25Every Bible Scholars are in agreement that Ezekiel 1 was a VISION..
Please don't make silly insinuations like 'Have you read the Bible'.Have you actually read Daniel 7:25 and Revelation 13:7 both are saying that the SAINTS WILL BE OVERCOME during the 42 months (3 1/2 years) reign of the Beast/Little Horn.
Do you agree that John was in the spirit when he saw the Throne Of God in Heaven described in Revelation 4 and Revelation 5 ...So much for 'Bible Scholars'. Matthew 11:25
Ezekiel said he saw God and His throne, while standing by the river Kebar.
Stephen was about to die in Jerusalem and he saw God and His Throne.
Revelation 14:1 is about the 144,000 who were sealed in Revelation 7:1-8We Christians will gather in Jerusalem and the Lord will reveal Himself to us. 2 Thessalonians 1:10, Revelation 14:1. Great will be the Day!
The Christians who will face pesecution will be the Christians from around the WORLDPlease don't make silly insinuations like 'Have you read the Bible'.
I used those two quotes to prove that God's holy people are present in the holy Land, at the time the leader of the One World Govt conquers them.
They are not recent converts, but all the living faithful Christians, as many Bible prophesies prove.
Revelation 12:6-17 shows how they are divided into two groups; one taken to a place of safety and the other must remain and face persecution. Zechariah 14:1-2
Yes, the scripture says he was.Do you agree that John was in the spirit when he saw the Throne Of God in Heaven described in Revelation 4 and Revelation 5 ...
The 144,000 are selected by Jesus out of the 'vast multitude'.Revelation 14:1 is about the 144,000 who were sealed in Revelation 7:1-8
You just can't see it can you? Here is some of the many prophesies that plainly state that God's people; now every faithful Christian, will gather and live in all of the holy Land. THAT is our destiny and our amazing privilege.The Christians who will face pesecution will be the Christians from around the WORLD
Totally wrong...Revelation 7:1-8 say clearly that the 144,000 are selected among the 12 Tribes of Israel.....ADD to that ,than you are unable to see that what follow described in Revelation 7:9-17 is another scene that John saw while he was in the spirit ,clearly happening in another location than Earth...The 144,000 are selected by Jesus out of the 'vast multitude'.
Any other interpretation of Revelation 7, forces the given sequence out of order and is made to suit another agenda.
All these OT prophecies about the gathering of the people of God in the Land where they will live in peace and security and be a light to the other Nations refers to the gathering mentioned in Matthew 24:29-31 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 UNTO THE COMING OF JESUS IN THE CLOUDS.You just can't see it can you? Here is some of the many prophesies that plainly state that God's people; now every faithful Christian, will gather and live in all of the holy Land. THAT is our destiny and our amazing privilege.
Psalms 60:1-5 You have been displeased and rejected us, now restore us, we pray. You have shaken the Land, it is barren and desolate.

We Christians ARE the Israel of God. Isaiah 66:21 and Revelation 5:10 prove that we are assigned to a tribe when we go to live in all of the holy Land. Isaiah 62:1-5Totally wrong...Revelation 7:1-8 say clearly that the 144,000 are selected among the 12 Tribes of Israel...
I don't see that, because it isn't there.ADD to that ,than you are unable to see that Revelation 7:9-17 is another scene that John saw while he was in the spirit happening in another location than Earth...
Your valueless and unsupported opinion. Do the prophesies I posted in #217, mean nothing to you?All these OT prophecies about the gathering of the people of God in the Land where they will live in peace and security refers to the gathering mentioned in Matthew 24:29-31 and 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 UNTO THE COMING OF JESUS IN THE CLOUDS.
Parts of Revelation 7 are about the 144,000 being sealed here on earth, yes. But not the parts of Revelation 7 Riberra referred to - Revelation 7:9-17. Those are in heaven.Revelation 7 is all abut earthly events; the gathering of every faithful Christian, the selection of those who will proclaim the good news of the coming Kingdom, Isaiah 66:18b-19, and then from verse 15-17, how it will be in Eternity.
This forum could use a lot less of that sort of commentary coming from you.... and from a bunch of other people in this forum, not just you. It doesn't mean anything and does help matters.Your valueless and unsupported opinion
