And since we're looking at a book of prophecy we should use that same application. Jer. 6:2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman. 2 Cor. 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ Eph. 5:23For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. I also believe its Israel too but in the context of prophecy, I'm gonna answer the church first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev. 7:9-10). Rev 7:9 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; Rev 7:10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. The wording "of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues" most definitely refers to the Church, as we have been redeemed from all nations and tongues. And, as has been stated previously, Christ came out of Israel. Edited May 26, 2005 by Trust & Obey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a typo. I meant Rev. 5:9-10, not Rev 7:9-10. It is true that the saints in Rev 7 are Tribulation saints. The concept of a pre-trib rapture isn't anything extra-biblical. Jesus promises it to those who follow Him: 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. So, "keep the word of His patience" and He will "keep thee from the hour of temptation..." Pretty straight-forward. Brother, I don't want this thread to turn into a Trib debate, so let's start a new thread if we're going to continue the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
