The unusual during the great tribulation
After the midnight cry 34b
Meditate about these things.
Rev. 13:1-18, “And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.” Verse 3-5, “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months, (three and a half years).” This is the great tribulation.
Verse 7-8, “And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
Here we have the scriptures opening our eyes to know about what is coming. First, the scripture says, “The beast will make war with the saints, and to overcome them.” You may ask, who are these saints? Yet remember that the translation had already taken place. The elect saints have gone in the translation, for the forty two months to begin to count. The saints that will run into the antichrist for forty two months are the tribulation people, who took their lamps and no oil. They face the anger of the antichrist, as those that are of all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. The antichrist has power globally, and there will be no place to hide. You were left behind. Why would the saint be allowed to fall into the hands of the antichrist after the translation? If you don’t take the Holy Spirit seriously, who is the word, who is Christ Jesus, your oil will leak out or you did not take extra oil with you, while waiting for the Bridegroom, (Jesus Christ at the translation).
Also, the raptured saints were gone, that was why, “ all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world.” The saints suffer the same fate as those whose names are not found in the book of life, only they do not take the mark but many may die for their faith or be one of those that are divinely protected in the wilderness. They are called saints because they are part of the bride, but did not make the translation.
During this period heading to Armageddon, The second beast of verse11, that doeth wonders, and causeth fire to come down from heaven, rises and causeth all on the earth to worship the first beast. He deceiveth them on the earth by means of miracles, saying to the world, to make an image to the first beast. Verse 16-17, He causeth all to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads or else no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name,
Rev. 13:10, talks about the patience of the saints at that time. Many saints will suffer, some die but you must die in patience and in the faith. If I perish I perish but must not take the mark. Rev, 3:10, talks about keeping the word of my patience and in the hour of temptation that comes upon all the world; I also will keep thee. Every saint needs patience, faith and the word of God. Also Rev . 14:12, talks about, Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus Christ, The standard for all saints whether you go through translation or tribulation; you need patience, faith and the word of God to make it to heaven in the end; and don’t take the mark of the beast, or the name.of the beast, or the number of his name. These can all come as a logo, meaning the same thing.
