    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    Jesus is not only the first, He is the ONLY man ever to raise from the dead by His own power. But to become the Redeemer also took living without sin!

    This passage has no reference to the church. It is speaking of the 70th week. All the tares grow with the wheat during that time, and if you note the 6th trumpet judgment, the tares are taken first. It must be this way because the rapture passage of scripture is just as true as these you posted.

    Wow! How different than Jesus described those first five verses to me. He said, and I quote: "I chose to show John what the dragon did when I was a young boy, how he used King Herod to try and murder me. Those first five verses were a "history lesson" for John." This is really very simple...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    I disagree: there was a definite time that Jesus was NOT FOUND WORTHY to open the seals.

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    Reading ahead to what is said about Jesus: " Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood " NOT said but to be understood: He had to prevail over death - rise from the dead.

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    I would have to disagree about from 4:1 on. The church age has not been "quickness." The 70th week? Yes, God will accomplish MUCH in these 7 years. Question: how much "weight" do you put on Jesus's words, "the end is not yet" in Matthew 24? (Example: no weight at all - you ignore them or a lot...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    You didn't see through anything! Everything that I teach is according to scripture. And what does the the "sheep hear My voice" have to do with Revelation? You weren't told these things by God, because they do not match His word. The counting of how many times the dragon is mentioned as no...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    More assumptions! Aren't you the one who keeps talking about sticking to what is written? Yet, you assumed everything above. It is absolute fact that for the most part, World Wars 1 & 2 STARTED in Europe. Keep in mind, I did not write this: GOD had John write it: " They were given authority...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    Those large print scriptures are fine in their place, but they don't fit this case. Written on the outside of the book - without a doubt - is WHO would be worthy. Reading again we see that it had to be "the Redeemer." It had to someone who "prevailed" over death to become the Redeemer. God...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    Of course I could say the same thing. The proper way to proceed is show us the correct reading of a scripture: the author's intent in a scripture. We may then disagree on the meaning of a certain scripture.

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    If this wasn't so sad, it would be funny. The truth is, when someone says the seals have not yet taken place, they have already been pulled the seals out of context. What you are saying is, you simple don't know the context of the first seals. You simply don't believe John is talking about the...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    When one pulls verses out of context and gets their theories wrong because of it, the rest of their theory will then be off also as shown here. The first seal was opened so that the church could legally be sent out. Was Satan going to just step aside and allow the Gospel to be expanded to other...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    In contraposition to the above: what the scriptures really say: 5:6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    And you say this because what you wrote did not line up with scripture and I saw through it. Are you saying now that John did not weep? Better take another look. Did you not read? John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: I am a sheep and I hear His voice. It...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    I believe John saw this vision around 95 AD. So we agree. It is probably the only thing we will agree on. A vision can be of the past, the present or the future - or all of them together. We determine the time of what is seen by things in the vision. For example, John saw - in this vision of...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    I will agree that others in the bible also saw the four living creatures. I am not really sure what you are saying here. It is the Father on the throne, and when seen, Jesus is at the right hand of the Father. I can't think of a verse that says it, but without a doubt Jesus has a throne beside...

    They begin their testimony just 3 1/2 days before the midpoint of the week, probably the same moment that the man of sin arrives in Jerusalem with Gentile armies. They testify for 1260 days, which takes them to just 3 1/2 days before the end of the week. They are killed and lay dead for those 3...

    When did (will) Jesus open the first seal in Rev. 6 and what does it represent?

    Worthy as King of Kings and Lord of Lords - YES! But worthy to take the book and open the seals? NO! Not when that first search was going on. He was not found worthy until He prevailed over death and rose from the Dead to become the Redeemer.
