Discover The On-Tribulation Rapture or the 6th Seal Rapture View! We will be covering the 6th Seal and the huge multitude of people that show up in Heaving. It is a privilege to know more and study about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
.
There is no other book in the Bible other than Revelation, that lays down in a clear step-by-step sequence, the chronology of events that will take place in the last days leading right up to the second coming of Jesus and even beyond that into eternity.
.
We have seen the chronology of the book of Revelation in the previous article, which was Spiritual Power Nugget 13.
.
In the last article, I told you that I will be covering the 6th Seal and the huge multitude of people that show up in Heaving, in the next article. This is the article where I will cover this topic in detail.
.
So welcome to the 14th Episode of the Spiritual Power Nuggets.
.
What I am going to teach you today is new and I haven’t heard anyone preach this before. You need to have an open mind in order to hear this message. If you are coming with a preconceived idea about the end times and not willing to accept anything else that is taught, then you cannot receive this message into your heart.
.
Always have an open mind when it comes to the word of the Lord. There is a possibility that even I could be wrong, and if I am proven wrong from the word of the Lord, I will correct myself. But whatever is taught must be based on the word of God. That should be our only base. My teachings were, are, and will always be based strongly on the word of God and nothing else. I blindly take the word of God at its face value.
.
One day when I was meditating on the book of Revelation, the sixth seal caught my attention. I was actually reading it and it struck me that since the book of Revelation is in Chronological order, how can the 6th seal occur so early since it looks like the second coming of Jesus. I kept reading it again and again until it dawned on me that it was actually NOT THE SECOND OF JESUS because, in the sixth seal, nothing is mentioned about Jesus coming back to earth! That intrigued me and made me study that deeper. It was then that the Holy Spirit revealed to me that the 6th Seal is nothing but the RAPTURE! When I realized that, I was so excited and overjoyed because like I said, the book of Revelation is the only book in the bible where the end-time events are mentioned in a chronological sequence. So if the Rapture is not mentioned in the book of Revelation, then it would be something to worry about! But Thank God, it is so clearly recorded for us, but you need the Holy Spirit to reveal the hidden truth.
.
What you’re gonna hear today may not be acceptable to many of you because you’ve been hearing messages on the PRE, MID, and POST-TRIB RAPTURES!
There are also other versions like the PRE-WRATH and so on…
.
None of these messages ever taught the SIXTH SEAL as being the Rapture. Not a single one.
.
The Pre-Tribbers say that the rapture happens before any of the seals can be opened. They refer to chapter 4, where you read about a voice coming out of Heaven, saying come up hither, and John was caught up to Heaven. They say that this is the picture of the Rapture. The reason they say this is because Revelation chapter 4 verse 1 talks about a door being open in Heaven and the voice as of a trumpet saying come up hither. Then John, the author of the book was immediately in Heaven in Spirit. So they say that this is a picture of the Rapture.
.
But if you read the event, it is plainly a command that is being given specifically to John asking him to come to Heaven in order to be shown the events that will happen in the future. That is all. It is very plain and very clear. There is no need to think that this is the Rapture. The Pre-Tribbers do this in order to fit the PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE into the book of Revelation. But there is no need for such action from our end because the Lord has already recorded the Rapture in the Book of Revelation for us which we will clearly be able to see once you have watched this entire video.
.
Now the POST-TRIBBERS teach that the sixth seal is actually the same event as taught by Jesus in Matthew Chapter 24 which is the Second Coming Of Jesus. They come to the conclusion that the 6th Seal is indeed the second coming of Jesus and in which case it violates the very Chronology of events in Revelation! Obviously, because of this they resort to the idea that the book of Revelation IS NOT IN A CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER!
.
Do you see the problems that result due to human interpretations?
When we try to fit our human theologies into the word of God, it will surely contradict and force us to change or twist the word of God. The book of Revelation has a very severe warning for anyone who tries to ADD OR REMOVE anything written in this book. Still, people are forced to manipulate and twist the book of Revelation in order to make it fit their theology.
.
But none of this is required if you just read the Word of God and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth. The Holy Spirit will be more than happy to reveal the truth IF YOU ARE WILLING to accept it with an OPEN MIND. That is the KEY!
.
So having an OPEN HEART is THE MOST IMPORTANT requirement when it comes to studying the Word of God.
.
With that in mind, let us jump right into the study today!
.
Let me address the POST-TRIBBERS who say that the sixth seal is the Second Coming Of Jesus.
Jesus spoke about His Second Coming in Matthew chapter 24, verses 29 onwards. We can actually prove from the very first line of the verse itself that the 6th Seal IS NOT THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS!
.
Let us go to Matthew 24:29
.
[Mat 24:29 KJV] Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
.
Now, let us contrast this with Revelation Chapter 6, verse 17 which is talking about the 6th Seal:
.
[Rev 6:17 KJV] For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
.
I want you to focus on the first line of these 2 verses closely:
.
[Mat 24:29 KJV] Immediately after the tribulation[Rev 6:17 KJV] For the great day of his wrath is come
.
In Matthew 24, Jesus said immediately AFTER THE TRIBULATION whereas, in Revelation 6, it says the Great Day Of His Wrath (which is the Tribulation) IS COME or HAS COME, meaning that it is started or in other words, it has begun.
.
So you see it’s not the same event because the 6th Seal (Rev 6:17) happens at the beginning of Tribulation whereas, the 2nd Coming Of Jesus (Matt 24:29) happens AFTER the Tribulation!
.
What a beauty the Word of God really is!! It is amazing for me to see the intricate details, in which the Holy Spirit has hidden the precious information for the Children of God. We just have to DIG IN and ENJOY!
.
So we have just proven that the Second Coming of Jesus as spoken of by Jesus Himself in Matthew 24 happens AT THE END of TRIBULATION whereas the 6th SEAL in Revelation 6, is an EVENT that happens AT THE START of the TRIBULATION!
.
I PRESENT TO YOU THAT THE 6TH SEAL IS THE RAPTURE EVENT THAT HAPPENS RIGHT AT THE START OF THE TRIBULATION AND HENCE I CALL IT AS THE ON-TRIBULATION RAPTURE.
.
Quite a Contract – Isn’t it?
.
Let us continue…
.
All right, You might ask me, how can I be sure that the 6th Seal is the Rapture? What are the indicators that tell us that the sixth seal is the Rapture?
In order to answer this, let us go to the Sixth Seal and see some of the signs that happen.
.
Let us read Revelation 6:12
.
[Rev 6:12 KJV] 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;
.
The FIRST SIGN is a GREAT EARTHQUAKE.
.
.
In order to understand the magnitude of this Great Earthquake, we need to read the 14th verse of the same chapter:
.
[Rev 6:14 KJV] … and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
.
Now, this is NO ORDINARY EARTHQUAKE!
As you can see, every mountain and island were moved out of their places. We have never encountered such an earthquake from the beginning of time. Take note of this because this is significant.
.
There is a special thing that I’ve noticed about some of the earthquakes mentioned in the Bible. Now don’t misunderstand or misquote me.
.
We have at least 3 incidents in the Bible where the earthquake accompanies the resurrection of the dead!
.
INCIDENT 1: Let us read Matthew 27:51-54
.
[Mat 27 KJV]51: and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52: And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,53: And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.54: Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
.
This happened right after the death of our Lord Jesus on the cross. The earthquake happened and the graves were opened and many dead saints came to life!
.
INCIDENT 2: Let us read another incident that relates to the 2 witnesses or saints in Revelation 11:11-13
.
[Rev 11 KJV]11: And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12: And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13: And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
.
Here we see 2 things happen:
.
-
First the resurrection of the 2 witnesses
-
Then the rapture of the 2 witnesses
-
Immediately it is being followed by a great earthquake.
.
INCIDENT 3: Let us read another incident that relates to the resurrection of our Lord Jesus himself in Matthew 28:2
.
[Mat 28:2 KJV] And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
.
When you read this, it appears that the earthquake occurred because of the Angel coming down from heaven! But that’s NOT the reason why the earthquake occurred, because angels have always come and gone, but never was accompanied by an earthquake!
.
The angels came down exactly when Jesus was resurrected from the dead and you can figure it out from the other gospels!
.
So we saw 3 incidents from the Bible where an earthquake accompanied the resurrection of the dead. Now, this does not mean that whenever a dead is raised, you will have an earthquake, or whenever an earthquake occurs someone will be resurrected. That is absolutely ridiculous.
.
But you cannot ignore the fact about those 3 incidents recorded for us in the Bible.
.
So when the 6th Seal is opened, the first sign is that of a GREAT EARTHQUAKE
.
.
The SECOND SIGN is that the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood:
.
.
Of course, when such a great earthquake occurs, the smoke that arises will cause the sunlight to be blacked out and the moon will appear red as blood. Science has confirmed that the moon will appear red when looked through the smoke. You can go ahead and try it out!
.
Let us read the next verse:
.
[Rev 6:13 KJV] 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
.
.
The THIRD SIGN is the stars falling to the earth:
.
.
Now, this is a very weird sign! You know that these are not the real stars falling down, because most of the stars are much bigger than the earth and if they fall, the earth would be destroyed completely. The earth would not remain if the stars fell onto it. So then what is this verse telling us?
.
Do you know that the Angels are referred to as the stars of heaven sometimes?
.
Let us read a couple of verses to see that:
.
[Rev 1:20 KJV] 20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches
.
[Rev 12:4 KJV] 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
.
On both of these occasions, it is clear that the verses are referring to the angels!
.
So in the 6th Seal, does it mean that the angels are falling to the earth? No way! Then what is it?
.
Let us read what Jesus said about the state of people in Heaven after the resurrection:
.
[Mat 22:30 KJV] 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
.
Note that Jesus is comparing the resurrected souls to angels. Similarly, what if we can compare the souls under the alter of God to angels?
.
So, I present to you that the stars falling from Heaven in the sixth seal is nothing but the souls of the people who are resting under the altar of God waiting for almost 2000 years for the resurrection to take place!
.
They are falling from heaven to the earth in order to be raised in their supernatural physical bodies and go back to heaven in the Rapture!That’s why they’re actually being awoken from their rest on the fifth seal!
.
Let us read:
.
[Rev 6:9 KJV] 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:[Rev 6:11 KJV] 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.
.
I know very well that this verse only talks about the souls that were slain for their testimony and not all the dead in Christ. But a piece of very important information is being given to us in this portion! The place of the dead souls today. Many people are not sure about the place where the souls of the dead in Christ are today.
.
Well, all the dead in Christ are under the altar of God resting for their resurrection. However, only those who were slain cry out for revenge which is natural, right? So white robes were given to the souls and they were asked to rest yet for a little season. This rest yet for a little season does not mean to go back to sleep or rest in peace. But the word used here also means to wait for a little more time, which makes absolute sense because vengeance time would soon come to punish the transgressors on earth.
.
But here’s the thing, they’ve been resting for two thousand years. The oldest one who died in Christ would have been resting for two thousand years and now they’ve suddenly been woken up by God in the fifth seal because the Rapture is about to take place!
.
They’re gonna go down all the way to the earth get into their supernatural spiritual bodies in resurrection, and then they would be returning back to Heaven in the Rapture, but will no longer stay under the altar of God but will be right before the throne of God praising and worshipping him as you will soon see.
.
I know that some of you just find all this too crazy. But just imagine the scene in the 5th seal, where the souls are being woken up, given white robes to wear and they’re being asked to go back to sleep or rest in peace. Do you think it makes any sense to you? It doesn’t!
.
So in the 5th seal, the dead in Christ are awoken and given white robes to wear in order to get ready for the Rapture!
.
Those souls are the stars that are falling from Heaven to Earth in the 6th Seal!
.
Let us read the next sign:
.
[Rev 6:14 KJV] 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
.
The FOURTH SIGN is the heaven opening like a scroll:
.
.
Revelation 6:14” And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together;”
.
Now if Heaven has to be scrolled open, then it means that there is a Mass Transportation that’s going to take place. Either – God and his Angels are going to come down to earth or the people of God are going to be transported to Heaven.
.
Well in the case of Rapture, there is mass transportation of people going up to heaven. Halleluiah!!
.
Please understand that the book of Revelation is talking to you in pictures and visions. So when it says the heaven departed as a scroll just imagine the scene and you will soon discover why this has to happen. I would like to draw your attention to a similar opening of Heaven when Jesus was baptized while He was here on Earth.
.
[Mat 3:16 kjv] 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens[G3772] were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
.
See that? When the Holy Spirit was descending, Heavens were opened. Here in the 6th Seal, a similar event is taking place preparing for the Rapture.
Another reason why Heaven is opening like a scroll is because the people on earth will actually be able to see the throne of God in Heaven.
.
Let us read…
.
[Rev 6:15 KJV] 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;[Rev 6:16 KJV] 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:
.
Did you note that? People are trying to hide from the face of God Almighty who is sitting on the throne. So they are able to see the throne of God! They are also able to see Jesus!! Oh, what a terrific scene it’s going to be. The Rapture is not a secret event as many are claiming it to be. Rather it will be such a massive and explosive event that will catch the attention of everyone on earth. But only the believers will be raptured in the twinkling of an eye that no one will be able to see the rapture and that is why even John who is writing the book of Revelation does not see the people being raptured but later on, it is explained to him!
.
Now here’s the thing. Imagine the entire world will see Yahweh on his throne in Heaven and Jesus since He will come on the clouds to Rapture us. So once the rapture is over, the entire world would know that the Bible is true and Jesus is real. Then won’t the whole world repent and come to Jesus? Ideally yes but that is where the antichrist will play his major role. See what the Bible has to say about this:
.
[2Th 2:11 KJV] 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
.
So God is going to send the left behind people a strong delusion that they should believe a lie. Who is going to lie?Let us read…
.
[2Th 2:9 KJV] 9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,[2Th 2:10 KJV] 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
.
Because these people DID NOT believe in Jesus and did not get Raptured,
[2Th 2:11 KJV] 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
.
So the antichrist is going to lie to the people about the 6th seal and all that happened during the 6th seal including the Rapture since many people are going to be missing!
.
Hope it is clear.
.
Let us move on.
.
Let us look at the NEXT SCENE now:
.
[Rev 7:1 KJV] 1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
.
So there is complete silence after this and the next event is the sealing of the 144,000 people from Israel.
.
[Rev 7:4 KJV] 4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: [and there were] sealed an hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
.
Do you know why this is happening? It is because the Church which is the bride of Christ has been raptured out of there and so God turns his attention back to Israel. The clock of Israel which was paused for almost 2000 years starts to tick now.
.
These 144,000 people are being specially sealed for the Gospel work because the Church which was supposed to do the Gospel work has been raptured and so the 144,000 will carry the Gospel to the nations.
.
Now how can I be sure that they are to do the Gospel work. A hint is given to us in Revelation 14.
.
[Rev 14:1 KJV] 1 And 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.
.
[Rev 14:3 KJV] 3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
.
So somewhere around the midpoint of the tribulation, the group of 144,000 people is also raptured out of the earth. See what happens next.
.
[Rev 14:6 KJV] 6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
.
See that? As soon as the 144,000 people are out of here, God sends an angel to preach the everlasting gospel to everyone that dwells on the earth! You see the Gospel work must continue to go on even during the tribulation! So as soon as the church gets raptured, the group of 144,000 People is sealed and appointed for the gospel work. As soon as the 144,000 people are raptured, an angel is appointed to carry out the Gospel work! Halleluiah!!
.
This is how the Gospel will reach everyone in the world! Remember what Jesus said:
.
[Mat 24:14 KJV] 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.
.
Amen!
.
Do you see how perfectly the scriptures are aligned? God is great!
.
.
Let us come back to the 6th seal.
As soon as the 6th seal is over, the 144,000 people are sealed on earth. Immediately after that, the scene shifts to Heaven, and just see what the scene is!!
.
[Rev 7:9 KJV] 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;
.
Halleluiah!
.
These are the people who are raptured during the 6th seal. Need proof? Let us read:
.
[Rev 7:14 KJV] 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.
.
It is clearly said that these are the people who have come out of the great tribulation! You might tell me, “yeah right, but the tribulation has not yet started during the 6th seal!”
.
Let us read the end of the 6th seal to see what the Bible says..
.
[Rev 6:17 KJV] 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
.
So the tribulation starts with the 6th seal! That is why I call the rapture as the ON-TRIBULATION RAPTURE. The tribulation just starts and immediately we are out of here! Glory to God!
.
I’m bringing this to a close now.
.
A final proof that the 6th seal is indeed the rapture.
.
What did Jesus say about the Rapture?
.
[Luk 21:36 KJV] 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
.
Note the words of Jesus carefully. He said “that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things and to STAND BEFORE THE SON OF MAN!!”
.
Now, see where the huge multitude of people in Heaven are:
.
[Rev 7:9 KJV] 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;
.
EXACTLY AS JESUS HAD SAID – STANDING BEFORE THE SON OF MAN!!
.
See how clearly the event is portrayed in Revelation matching the exact words of our Lord Jesus!
.
So the 6th seal is the Rapture and the huge multitude of people are the 2000 years of dead in Christ who are raised during the rapture along with those who are alive during the rapture. Not everyone who is alive during the rapture are taken but only those who are accounted worthy to escape as mentioned by Jesus. .
We have a rough estimate of this number based on the letters sent to the 7 churches in Revelation where only one church is promised the rapture, which can be assumed as only 1 out of every 7 Christian will be raptured.
.
Remember the eternal life is our blessed hope and we get eternal life during the Rapture event and so the Rapture becomes our blessed hope, because we get to escape the worst time on earth and stand before Jesus in heaven! This is a reward for keeping our patience and waiting for the return of Jesus. We have been long waiting for this wonderful event and are still waiting… This is our great hope and we are very close now!
.
I hope this has been a wonderful revelation to every one of you and this event is the very next event that’s going to take place.
.
We’re somewhere around the fifth seal right now where God will wake up the souls under that alter of God.
.
I don’t know if it’s already happened or it’s happening or it might happen very soon. But the second it happens, remember the next event will be the rapture it’s gonna be a huge event, and we are going to witness it very soon!
.
Get ready for the huge event that is going to take place!Are you ready to face Jesus?Are you ready for the Rapture?
.
Let’s get ready
.
Thanks for reading and God Bless!
