Yes, its quite the opposite of the popular theme, what really happens.Absolutely---As with the whole rapture theory. It is not what the scriptures say. It is the taken away that are lost. You can't read it any other way, not when you really look at it.
WHOM do you BELIEVE takes THE MARK OF THE BEAST???? such A MARK IS FORCED upon HUMANITY during THE REIGN of the ANTICHRIST. the BIBLE tells us THE 144,000 THE ELECT will go THROUGH the great tribulation AS THEY ARE SEALED so that NO HARM WILL COME TO THEM during TRIBULATION when THE ANTICHRIST rules this earth at HIS APPOINTED TIME.Absolutely---As with the whole rapture theory.

The saints of Christ are alive on the earth when the Dragon and the beast are revealed, and many of them are killed. (If he can catch them), as they refuse to worship him. Some though go into captivity.WHOM do you BELIEVE takes THE MARK OF THE BEAST???? such A MARK IS FORCED upon HUMANITY during THE REIGN of the ANTICHRIST. the BIBLE tells us THE 144,000 THE ELECT will go THROUGH the great tribulation AS THEY ARE SEALED so that NO HARM WILL COME TO THEM during TRIBULATION when THE ANTICHRIST rules this earth at HIS APPOINTED TIME.
No, anyone who receives that mark is doomed, and will not participate in the thousand year reign of Christ. They are tortured in Hell.there will be MILLIONS SAVED during the tribulation because THEY REFUSED to take the mark of the beast and THOSE CAPTURED will be put to death because of it. there will also be MILLIONS that will still be ALIVE and still have the mark of the beast inside them DURING THE THOUSAND YEAR REIGN of Jesus Christ.
JUDGEMENT OF ALL HUMANITY is not UNTIL AFTER the thousand year REIGN of Jesus Christ.No, anyone who receives that mark is doomed, and will not participate in the thousand year reign of Christ. They are tortured in Hell.
Revelation 14:8-10 New King James Version (NKJV)
8 And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon[a] is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”
9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

They are sealed--and go through the tribulation. They are not whisked away from the tribulation. Both sides are marked---those that follow the beast, and those that follow God.
Rev_7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
The mark of the beast is on both the hand and the forhead---God's seal only on the forhead. The forehead is the sign of the mind. the hand is the sign of action. The beast's mark is both, those that believe in what the beast says, and those that though they may not believe, still do as he says. God's seal is only on the forehead--the mind---it is for those that truly believe in God word.
THE BRIDE IS NOT THE CHURCH or ALL BELIEVERS only THOSE waiting and WATCHING for HIS RETURN. not ALL christians are WAITING and WATCHING for HIS RETURN. where is THE WEDDING of THE BRIDE to the GROOM???? in HEAVEN OR EARTH????taken

That's the complete opposite as being "taken" and is very negative. Do you
want to be rejected at the return of Christ or do you want to be accepted?
Christ takes the first one from the field and the rest is "left" by him, and
are "kept no longer".
JUDGEMENT OF ALL HUMANITY is not UNTIL AFTER the thousand year REIGN of Jesus Christ.
I AGREE the NUMBER or MARK OF THE BEAST will be RECEIVED by those WHOS NAMES are NOT WRITTEN in the lambs book of life.And the number of the beast is a human number of man, the people of that time, there will be no confusion or wondering what the mark is, everyone who receives the mark knows full well what it is.
Today we speculate on how this number will function in their economy, but in that time God will give His people the wisdom to understand. No one will be marked without them knowing what is happening.
16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
NO, He kills all that do not know God and who do not obey the gospel when He RETURNS at the second coming. None of the wicked are left alive.JUDGEMENT OF ALL HUMANITY is not UNTIL AFTER the thousand year REIGN of Jesus Christ.

The mark means ownership, those people marked give themselves over to worship and fully participate in the kingdom of the beast.
IF the LIVING WICKED are DESTROYED at Jesus Christs REIGN, then WHY IS SATAN LET LOOSE AFTER that THOUSAND YEAR REIGN OF Jesus Christ???? WHOM ARE THEY that Jesus Christ DESTROYS at the BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON???????Punishments of the wicked is after the 1000 yea reign. When Jesus comes, it is before the 1000 years and He comes only for the saved. Judgment has already been made. Jesus has decided who is lost and who is saved. The living wicked are destroyed at His coming, the rest of the dead stay dead.
2Th 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
Rev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Rev 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
After the 1000 years is the judgement of the wicked--their punishment is decided---their fate has alreasdy been decided.
Good question. People are born during that time on the earth, and after the thousand year reign, Satan is released to deceive the nations again, then comes the end.IF the LIVING WICKED are DESTROYED at Jesus Christs REIGN, then WHY IS SATAN LET LOOSE AFTER that THOUSAND YEAR REIGN OF Jesus Christ???? WHOM ARE THEY that Jesus Christ DESTROYS at the BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON???????
