Not in the midst of war mean after tribulation
Hello Jackson: not sure is you saw all of this:
!!!!THE SECRET RAPTURE!!!!
It's was only a secret when the body of Christ was lacking some of the Hidden Manna.
Rev 2:17b To him who overcomes, to him I will give some of the hidden manna.
Two of the Seven Promises
Rev 3:21 'He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, just as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
Rev 3:22 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"
("After These Things")
Rev 4:1-2 After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven, and the first voice which I had heard, like the sound of a trumpet speaking with me, said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after these things.” Rev 4:2 Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne was standing in heaven, and One sitting on the throne.
If one is concerned about Chronological order then we see/hear !!!!"After these things"!!!! six more times (for a total of eight times) and the words "After This" Once, before the Church is ever mentioned again (nineteen chapters later)
John is the observer of everything that happen (firstly in the throne room) where shortly after his arrival there, and Immediately after a reception of Lighting and Thunder Seven Lamps of fire appear in front of the throne.
Rev 4:5 Out from the throne come flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder. And there were (((seven lamps of fire))) burning before the throne, ((((which are the seven Spirits of God.))))
And what follows is where the seven lamps of fire came from, and Jesus states what they are.
Rev 1:12 Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned I saw
seven golden lampstands; 13 and
in the middle of the lampstands I saw
one like a son of man, clothed in a robe reaching to the feet, and girded across His chest with a golden sash.
Rev 2:1
a-b “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: the
One who walks among the seven golden lampstands, says this
Rev 1:19 "Therefore
write the things which you have seen, and the things
which are, and the
things which will take place "after these things". 20
(((("
As for the mystery)))) of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and
(((((the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
)))))
Rev 5:6 And I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, ((((which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth)))).
(((And now remembering again the great promise)))
Rev 3:21 'He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, just as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. 22 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"
The Seven Spirits of God are first acknowledged after John came (back from the future) to deliver what he had written to seven letters to the churches in Asia. John Gives the blessing from those in heaven.
Rev 1:4-5 John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, (from) Him who is and who was and who is to come, and (from) the seven Spirits who are in front of His throne. 5 and (from) Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and released us from our sins by His blood
