Great multitude

[simpleman]

In Revelations chapter 7 it tells of the great multitude that came through the tribulation. Could someone explain what is happening in this chapter. Thanks

Simply put it is showing that those who are In Christ are vast, from all throughout the world no matter what nationality, race, languages, whoever they are Saved by the Lord Jesus Christ, And that is You and Me and all who truly believe in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Peace be with you,
John.

We are those folks. Revealtion is not in a chronological order it goes forward then it will go back and then forward again.
My personal belief is we are in the millenial reign of Christ, Christ has been reigning since he ascended. 1000 years in scripture is not literal for example in 2 Pet 3:8 But do not let this one {fact} escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.(NASB) and I believe all have to go through the tribulation (I Do not believe in the rapture). Of course those who believe in the rapture tend to view this differently.

Hope this is helpful.

Peace be with you,
John

Hi freind.That means ther's no rapture because some of us will be persecuted but for our sakes the time will be short. See you are to pray that your kept out of harms way but youll still have to go through the times of trouble known as tribulation.That part of rev is talking about the dead in christ or those that are resurected first which are christians or another way to call us is saints we will prepare the way for the great multitude that will be ressurected in the second one.They will be given the true knowledge and be given one final chance to get wit da programme or else judgement and the lake of fire.

simpleman,

I would recomend reading
Understanding End Times Prophesy by Paul Benware

Or google it. If you can't find what you are looking for, let me know. I'll post something, but for now, try that because there is so much information, and you have to 1st have an understanding of Daniel to truly understand Revelations.

God bless,
Nigh
