Revelation 7:13-17

Revelation 7:13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

As chapter seven closes we see an elder asking who are theses in white robes but he already knows he just whats wants to use this as a teaching session to those who may not know. Again these are the ones that accepted Christ after the rapture and martyred in the tribulation and they are constantly before the throne praising and worshiping God and the Lamb. And we also are reassured they in heaven for it says they will not need anything because the Lamb of God will be there to provide all needs and wipe away every tear.

Revelation 7:9-12

Revelation 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

Now we see the same elders and beasts praising God as when John first entered Heaven, but thru the first 3 and 1/2 of tribulation an untold number, a number too large for man to number, has been saved by the preaching of the 144000 and by the blood of Jesus they are now dressed in white robes with palms in their hands.They also are praising God and the Lamb that sits on the throne giving all praise for all thing to God. AMEN

Revelation 6:12-17

Revelation 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

As the sixth seal is about to be opened it is important to remember that the first four seals were destruction by the antichrist and his armies and man fighting against man. The false peace that was first implemented and then the chaos and destruction that followed. Now the sixth seal begins to let nature and God take its part getting people to realize who is really in charge. The 144000 and the two witnesses have been trying to get people to listen and accept Christ but now the ones that are left have pretty much waited till it is too late and as earthquakes and volcanoes begin to take place they realized they should have listen because it does not matter what position you hold in life now it is going to be hard to make into heaven now. People at this time are wanting to die thinking they will safe from God. So for what has taken place has covered the first 3 and1/2 years. The best time to make sure you do not have to face this is now while you have the time to accept Christ and go up with Him when that trumpet blows.

Revelation 6:9-11

Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

The fifth seal starts us seeing the saints that were slain for God in all that has happened. These are ones that are saved in the tribulation by the 144000 that preach and they cry out to God how long o Lord are You going to let this go on. But the Lord says to rest a little while till all that are saved have joined them. They are all given white robes to wear signifying they have been washed by the blood of Jesus.

Revelation 6:7-8

Revelation 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

The fourth of horsemen is a pale horse, which means he brought death and hell for those that this death killed were not saved. By it saying a fourth part of the earth it means over a billion people would die from the not only the war that was fought but also from the famine.

Revelation 6:5-6

Revelation 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Now the third horse, he is black and carries a set of balances. This is following the war that has taken place and now there is overburdened inflation and shortages of food and widespread famine is occurring. For those who stay true to God during this time will have to stay focused on listening to Him to survive and not only will there be a famine of food but also of spiritual values some we already see in today’s churches. There will also be a lot of death and sickness during this time.

Revelation 6:3-4

Revelation 6:3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

Now we have the second horse which is the red horse and the rider is given a sword to take peace from the world and cause man to turn against each other and begin what most think will be the WW3 .

Revelation 6:1-2

Revelation 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

Now we begin the 7 years of tribulation, starting with the four horsemen. the with a bow and a crown but no arrows so he conquers by diplomacy could very well be where the antichrist begins his rule of false peace.

Revelation 5:11-14

Revelation 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
14 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

Here a number to large to put a figure to was praising Jesus who was in control of everything. Also every living creature giving honor to Jesus and the ones that were praising God and Jesus to begin with agreed with them all and continues to worship them forever

 

 

Revelation 5:5-10

Revelation 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

Here John finds out that there is one that can open the scrolls and that person is the Lamb of God or Jesus. The elders from earlier now fall down to worship Jesus and He takes the book out of the hand of God. Jesus is the only one worthy to open the seals because of sacrifice He made for us to make us kings and priests with Him so we can reign with Him.
