#3~ REVELATION~ STILL TO COME 7-6-13
Today we'll continue talking about things that are still on Gods Prophetic calendar, things that He has told us that are going to come to pass, He has a set time for each and every happening, we that are saved would like for the rapture to take place today, I believe He'll call His Church away when the last soul is saved that makes up His Church.
~ Because God is God He knows the exact number that will fill His Church, and the precious little aborted babies are filling it fast. ~~ Before we get into our study, listen to these statistics about abortion.
----------
~ United States so far this Year, there's been over 609,000
~ Worldwide so far this Year, over 20,530.000
~ U.S. this Year due to rape or incest- over 6000.

* You that have access to the internet go to; -- US Abortion Clock.org **
There you'll see the same thing that I just read to you, only it'll be higher when you go there; you can see it actually climbing.
---------
* Listen~ here is what the scientific community knows today about the development of a baby at 16 weeks:
- The body is fully formed; the fingers and toes have fingerprints & nails.
- Is about 5 inches long and weighs about 3 ounces.
- The baby is moving about: may grasp for the umbilical cord, suck its thumb, and make facial expressions.
- The heart & circulatory system and the urinary tract are fully functioning, and the blood is pumping through these tiny veins
- The baby is inhaling and exhaling the amniotic fluid through the lungs.
This is, the innermost membrane of the sac enclosing the embryo, it is filled with a watery fluid.
-The eyes are in the proper position, and the baby can see straight ahead & blink his/her eyelids.
- The genitals have formed. In the case of a girl, the uterus has already developed and the ovaries are in the proper place.
~~ The baby is a human life at conception, not at some future time.

=====================================
~ So far we have pointed out that the very next thing on God's Prophetic Calendar is the rapture of His True Church~1 Thess. 4: 14-18 -- 1 Cor.15: 51-58.
-------
#1~The rapture.~ just after the Church is raptured away will be the Judgment seat of Christ, this is the time that all that was raptured will be judged for our stewardship, our works, what we did for Christ after we were saved, there'll be no lost sinners at this judgment.
---------
#2~ The Judgment seat of Christ. ~ 2 Cor. 5:10 -- Rom. 14:10.
------------
* LISTEN: as I mention a few things about what we find in the book of Revelation.
---------
* Rev. 1:~ Vision of the Glorified Christ.
* Rev. 2: & 3: ~ all in red writing, it's Jesus' message to the 7 Churches, each church represents a particular period of time from "the apostolic age unto the rapture--Ephesus, Smyrna, pergamas, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea, these were real churches in Asia minor, modern day Turkey.
-- the Laodiceans are the pretenders, this is where we're at today on God's calendar, the last day apostate church is here mingled among the true church, the Philadelphian believers.
---------
* Rev. 4 & 5 ~ is a Heavenly Scene. This is what the raptured church will witness.
~The church is raptured in;
>Rev.4: 1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.
----------
* Rev. 6:~ the antichrist comes on the scene on earth; he appears as a peace maker for a time.
>Rev. 6: 1-2 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 (living creatures in chapter 4 & 5) saying, Come and see. 2And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; (notice, a bow but no arrows) and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. -- (a way with words)
~ He does nothing to deserve the crown, it's given to him. The world will welcome him with open arms, they'll see him as a refreshing change, he'd be welcomed now, people here in our country are sick of what is running the country now, we have the nearest to nothing leadership the world has ever seen.
----------
* Rev. 7: ~ we have the true Jehovah Witnesses.
There will be 144000 in number, 12000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel; they will be Jewish missionaries, all male during the tribulation.
* Read 7: verses 1-8. ~ Names all 12 tribes.
----------
* LISTEN as I read of the multitude that will be saved during the 7 year tribulation because of the 144000 Witnesses preaching.
>Rev. 7: 9- 17-
9After this (after they were sealed) 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;
10And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders * (church) and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
(Notice these 7 attributes as I read verse 12) -- Let me remind us right here that there are 53- 7's in the book of Revelation. ~~ 7 is the number of perfection and completeness.
---------
12Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, * (John) What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? (Where did they come from?)
14And I * (John) 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.
15Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: (notice, these are not part of the Church, these will be servants in the Lords Temple, the Church is One body, it left complete at the rapture) and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. -- The tribulation saints.
-------
16They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
~ Remember these tribulation saints made it through the horrible tribulation, they had very little to eat, they were thirsty, all water was turned into blood,
>Rev.16:4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.
* The suns heat was greatly intensified.
>Rev.16: 8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9And men were scorched with great heat,--
------------
* Back to Rev.7:
17For 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. -- Remember these are the tribulation saints that survived the tribulation, not the Church.
~ The Church is one body, it leave all together, no single part of the Church is raptured. When you go into another room in your house you must take your entire body.
--------------
~ There will be millions that will not live through the tribulation, they are saved, they refused the mark, but they were caught and beheaded.
~ Beheading will be the means of execution to these that are caught in the tribulation under the police of the antichrist.
~I believe there'll be hundreds of portable guillotines, these that are caught will be put in jail and beheaded as quickly as possible.
------------
>Rev.20:4 -- 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; --
---------------------------------
* The devils hench- men can not destroy the 144000 Jewish missionaries because they have Gods seal in their foreheads.
>Rev.14: 1And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
--------
* The missionary's will be preaching the gospel of the Kingdom at that time.
>Matt. 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
~Their message will be King Jesus is soon to set up His Kingdom.
~ Today we preach the gospel of grace.
----------
~ Because of these missionary's preaching there will be millions and millions saved in the tribulation, the reason these can be saved is because they never heard the truth before the rapture, they were left behind at the rapture because they were not saved, but because they never heard the truth about Jesus before the rapture multitudes can and will be saved, all by the preaching of the 144000 Jewish evangelists.
---------------------------
* Rev.6: -- 18: the tribulation is taking place on earth, the true church left in chapter 4: ~~~ all these chapters, 6-18 are the horrible tribulation.
~Let me say, that the first 3 ½ years of the tribulation will be a false peace, all seems to be going alright.
~ The last 3 ½ years are called the GREAT TRIBULATION; the antichrist demands all to worship him.
~The abomination of desolation will be set up in the tribulation temple; this will be at the mid- way of the 7 years, from this point on will be horror such as this world has never seen.
~ The abomination of desolation could possible be a statue (imagine) of the antichrist set up in the temple.
------
>Rev.13:14-15 (false prophet) And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, (antichrist) which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15And he (false prophet) had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
* I personally believe the false prophet will be a POPE; he will be the religious leader at this time.
---------
* The Antichrist will present himself as God in the tribulation temple.
>2 Thess. 2: 3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
* This occurrence within its self is certainly an abomination.
-------
* Rev.19: 1-10~ is the Marriage of the Lamb & His Church, this happens just after the judgment of the saints while we're in the air with Him.
-------
* Rev. 19: 11- 21 ~ The Return of Christ to the earth with His church, this is the time that's known as the battle of Armageddon, Christ destroys all His opposing enemies, the saints are not involved. ~ This will be the most one sided battle in world history, He simple speaks and their history.
-----
>Rev. 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
----------
~The marriage of the Lamb will take place in heaven; the marriage supper of the Lamb represents the millennial kingdom of Christ, it will take place upon the earth. -- The O.T. Saints along with the Tribulation Martyrs will be resurrected after the 7 year tribulation has run its course; they are among the guest at the wedding.
>Rev. 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: << O.T. ---- N.T tribulation Martyrs >> 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.
------------
~ The Tribulation Martyrs are not part of the body of Christ, their saved but are not members of the N.T. Church.
They will lived and reign with Christ a thousand years.
~Only the Lord knows what they will be doing during His 1000 year reign.
-------------
>Rev. 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
All the saved from all dispensations are referred to as having part in the first resurrection.
* The 1st resurrection includes all the redeemed from the O.T. and N.T. as well.
----
* The resurrection of the lost will be 1000 years later.
>Rev.20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
-----------------
* John the Baptist will be an honored guest at the marriage. John is not a member of the church; he was beheaded before Jesus was crucified.
>John 3: 28 -29 (John said) ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
29He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
=================================================
~Next time if the Lord be willing we'll talk about the Great White Throne Judgment of the lost; I hope you can be with us.
