Revelation, Chapter 6:9-11 (Part 3): The Martyred Saints & The Angry Lamb!

Bible Prophecy Master Class, Part 3 by Alvin MitchellTribulation Christian Murders: Wave #1.The scene changes and the action ceases as the Lamb of God peels away the fifth seal, to reveal the fifth mystery written within the Scroll. It appears that the events of these first four seals represent the passage of a fair amount of time (clearly this time is not part of the seven last years, as will be seem later in the three “woes”, and in the Lord’s comments here), relatively speaking, since the first seal was opened; how much time, however, is not at all clear (one will therefore arbitrarily assume roughly one quarter of the apocalyptic period, at least). The presence of the souls of deceased saints under the altar (for their deaths will be precious in His eyes—Psalm 116:15), and their conversation with the Lamb, who is Lord of all, is on the other hand in itself revealing (This suggests quite handily, that upon dying, the saints—contrary to current evangelical teaching—do not automatically go directly into the literal presence of God; rather, they are in “Paradise”, the abode and temporary place of the “righteous” dead, as they await something akin to the “Bema Seat” Judgment—where all pre-trib saints will appear—Luke 23:43; John 20:17). These people represent the first wave of saints to be slaughtered following God’s merciless smashing of the US, followed hard by the crushing demise of the military might of the Russians, the EU, and the armies of the Muslim world (all of which will foment and facilitate the transfer of their power and wealth into the hands of the Jews.).There will be no experienced, seasoned Christians from before the beginning of the Apocalypse, as none will be brought over into this hellish time on earth (this, per God’s promise through the apostle Paul, recorded in 1 Thessalonians 5:9). They will all be “raptured” as they are all represented before John by the twenty-four elders, being in Heaven around the Throne (Revelation 5:8-10), encircling the Father, the Son (who is the Lamb) and the Spirit (whose omni-presence is portrayed as being sevenfold). Thus, the Christians appearing on earth after seal #1 are all both ‘born-again’ and murdered during the Tribulation. Which again, begs the question: Who are they, and how will they be saved, without a “seasoned” preacher…if only the left-behind church-rejects remain?As was the case during Martin Luther’s day, when there were no seasoned, veteran Christian churches as such to lead the protestants to the level of knowledge and understanding they sought (all were Roman Catholics, more or less), yet the church—splintered and fractured, yes—by the will of God was able to re-birth itself out of and separate from its catholic cocoon (where it lay dead, for 1000 years, or so), so likewise it is not the least inconceivable that certain key individuals left behind, perhaps those whom the churches could save now, if they would do their jobs, will be able to recognize immediately what has happened, why, and, drawing on what they know already, using Bibles they have on hand (of which there will likely be plenty), piece together enough information so as to rapidly grow their ranks, thereby saving themselves, and others, if not their families. The preachers then, will most probably have to come from within the rank and file of these “soft unbelievers”.
