Rev 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?
When you read the description above it basically includes everyone...from "the kings of the earth" to "EVERY free man" and it says they all hide themselves and tell the rocks to shield them from the wrath of the lamb. With this in mind, where are we? Why would we, the church ask rocks or anything else to hide us from our Lord's wrath? We would'nt. The only way Rev 6:12-17 makes any sense is if we the church are not on earth. All those who are on earth at the time of Rev 6 are in dread of the coming wrath.
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, that's everybody on earth right there.....
Where is the Church? hint: Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
Luke 21:36 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.
Worthy to escape how much? ESCAPE ALL....
I did'nt promise this, Jesus did....so pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy. I pray for us (all those in Christ) daily that we may indeed be counted worthy. Time is short, be watching, be ready...Grace and Peace
