2.Tribulation Saints

A special focus on the Tribulation Saints of the Sixth Seal and how it lead to understanding all the harvests.

The sixth seal rapture timing viewpoint has been the most neglected viewpoint for those looking to prove just one harvest event, as I used to. It seemed to be the most direct conclusion to come to when reading the Bible without over complicating it. But, upon closer inspection, I discovered even the sixth seal perspective was flawed. Although the ‘flaw’ seemed to be partially reconcilable by leaning preferentially on St. Paul’s greater enlightenment, when necessary, it turns out to be much more involved than that:

The Crux of the Sixth Seal

Context of the fourth and fifth seals:

A quarter of humanity will perish at the fourth seal then the fifth seal show martyrs crying out for eternal justice under God, YHWH, our Holy Father’s alter . . .

< 4th seal 5th seal >

2.1 Glory God Beyond

But, with further study and prayer, I began realize, and have faith, that there was an earlier harvest of the bride of Christ. The preps I was making could end up being very useful to tribulation saints. As I enjoyed continuing to make some preps for them, I changed my focus to understanding how to be Christ’s bride. And also, I found out that some of the other watchers were making left behind kits; So I joined them in trying to seek out special individuals to whom the Lord might want certain items to go. (Easier said than done!) Data is especially important since Daniel 7:25 states that the Beast is going to try, at the very least, to eliminate calendrical knowledge by changing the times and laws. AI has already been adulterating online Bibles. Woe to those who can’t tell the difference! The Bible warns about ‘a dessert of the WORD.’

How Does Revelation’s Sixth Seal Line up with the Olivet Discourse Harvest?

2.4 Glory God Beyond

Although they seem to line up, in Daniel’s 70th week, there’ll be a few other impressive earthquakes that will shake Earth and cosmic events that involve the sun and moon; And each one will frighten all the unsaved people on earth.

Regarding the synoptic gospels. It’s useful to remember that there are three of them, but only one Olivet Discourse by Jesus Christ; So it’s been recorded from three different angles. That’s not the same as three different prophesies lining up.

Compare it to the verses in the Synoptic Gospels:

Olivet Discourse – Mark 13:19-20, because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again.  If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them.”

Olivet Discourse – Luke 21:22, “For these are the days of vengeance, to fulfill all that is written.”

Three Harvests – each with three parts:

Revelation 14:14-20 The Two Grape Harvests

There are different multiple harvest viewpoints. Although I disagree with the idea that the Rev. 14 harvests have anything to do with grain, I still find the opinion in the link below valuable, because of the interesting way in which it breaks the mold, presenting an atypical understating of the ‘grapes of wrath.’

Reminder: AlepTav.blog See the Glory of God, is part of my own expository notes. I could be live editing. It’s not a course.

The three harvest model works well & absolutely makes the most sense, but each harvest has three parts:

The gleanings are martyrs

Why does God Almighty pays such serious attention, in Leviticus 27, to what’s holy, what’s set apart, who they’re set apart to and their redemablity?

2.9 Glory God Beyond

Now if the first-fruits are holy, so is the whole batch. And if the root is holy, so are the branches. Romans 11:16

But, not everything that’s set apart is set apart to God:

Torah Law requires the corners of harvestable fields to be set apart, given over to the stranger and the poor, that they may glean. The poor and the strangers become the new owners of the gleanings. Nevertheless, the whole field, including its corners, will have become holy from the time that the first-fruits sheaf, harvested from that particular field was waved by a priest in front of God at the temple.

A great visual, thanks to Jaco of’God’s Roadmap to the End’:

2.10 Glory God Beyond

The first fruits belong to God, the owner’s portion belongs to the owner, and the gleanings belong to the stranger and the poor.

2.11 Glory God Beyond

Talking about martyrs – a note on the Two Witnesses:

2.12 Glory God Beyond

Certain Israelites were dedicated to God even before being born.

Under Torah law, all firstborn children of the Israelites were holy to God. Originally, the first born sons of the Israelites were to be set apart as priests of God spending their lives working in the temple / tabernacle.

2.13 Glory God Beyond

But, the sons of Levi replaced the first born males, because the Levites were the only tribe that didn’t worship of the golden calf in the dessert of Sinai.

The first born sons had already been dedicated to God, so God allowed them to be redeemed for a price by their parents. Yet they remained holy to God.

A similar thing took place with firstborn animals. They could be redeemed from God for a price, which was used to support the Old Covenant temple/tabernacle functions. If the new owner of the redeemed animal wanted to give it back to God after that, they could only do so by putting it to death.

This is a sensitive topic . . .

Jesus Christ may, very soon, take His ‘owner’s portion’ of the Barley Harvest, the Open Door Harvest of Rev. 3:8

Purim:

Watchers are observing the whole time interval ‘under the umbrella’ or ‘in the scope’ covering by the meaning of the Purim holiday, which is the entire Book of Ester. It’s about how God the Father, Jesus Christ and the bride of Christ all work together to save the ultimate remnant of Israel. This important topic is explained in:

1. Jesus is the Door-High Watches

After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.”

Revelation 7:9

Watch for Jesus Christ:

https://alephtav.blog/2024/09/04/a-watchjesus/

2.16 Glory God Beyond

Increased Biblical knowledge leads us to let go of a few cherished simpler explanations.

This viewpoint fits best when the Book of Revelation is understood to be well ordered and chronological.

2.17 Glory God Beyond

Example of a forward overlap; the chain of events released when Jesus breaks the first, second and third seals (horsemen) overlap each other combining to bring about the death of a quarter of humanity at the fourth seal.

2.18 Glory God Beyond

. . . that from the time of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the menorah constantly blew out for 40yrs. . . until the temple was destroyed. Now the earthly temple was a reflection of God’s heavenly temple – They’re linked. And there was a seven branched menorah in God’s throne room which represented the sevenfold spirit of the betrothal relationship, so there was the solid gold menorah with 7 branches in His earthly tabernacles and temples.

2.19 Glory God Beyond

Some of the Elders could be from the Hall of Faith:

2.21 Glory God Beyond

Where’s Proof that the Zadokites Stayed Faithful?

A few final things to consider . . .

Appointed times / Holy convocations . . .

. . . are not merely rituals, they’re appointments or meetings with God Almighty.

2.22 Glory God Beyond

2.23 Glory God Beyond

The Three Harvests of Saints interpretation doesn’t work if the events of the seals are believed to continue on and on, extending deeply into or all the way through the second half of Daniel’s 70th Week.

2.24 Glory God Beyond

Context, the Sixth Seal: Revelation 6: 15-17

2.25 Glory God Beyond

The sixth seal is also when four angels restrain the release of God’s Trumpet Judgements until 144,000 are protectively sealed for their mission by an angel with the seal of the living God.

2.26 Glory God Beyond

Why would they suddenly need that protection if many harmful judgements had already been released?

2.27 Glory God Beyond

The Tribulation Saints of the sixth seal:

After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”  And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”
 Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?”  I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Revelation 7:9-14

2.28 Glory God Beyond

There were quite a few ways to put the pieces of the multi-harvest puzzle together;

But, because this site holds to God’s 6,000 yr. (Covenant years) plan for mankind, (slightly different according to human calendars) followed by the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ, the possibilities are narrowing rapidly.

19.Sons of Jacob

First The Jews

There’s also a group raised from the dead. (Dan. 12:2)

First an introduction: Then I’ll go over these three groups again below, with more detail.

Starting with the most rebellious group:

19.1 See the Glory of God

In general for all three groups of Jews:

19.2 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Christians have long been stuffing the cracks of the caves and dugout buildings of Bozrah/Petra full of Bibles in preparation for the coming 1,260 days that the Jews will soon be spending there.

19.3 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Bozrah/Petra in the Jordan Valley is most likely the safe place although some scholars think it’s in Sinai.

19.4 Glory God Beyond, Jews

19.5 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Climax

19.6 Glory God Beyond, Jews

19.7 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Harvest Chart:

Rev. 14 shows two grape harvests; But only the second one is ‘grapes of wrath.’

19.8 Glory God Beyond, Jews

19.9 Glory God Beyond, Jews

19.10 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Even the UN knows about the fallen angel portals. That’s why they have an off limits station there, a topic for another post! Israel just got control of it. (I added a link to the bottom of 28.Lucifer Impostor.)

19.11 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Note on the word elect:

19.12 Glory God Beyond, Jews

More specifics about the Good Grape Harvest of the Jews:

According to Torah Law, the first fruits of any harvest must be presented to God Almighty before the owner of the field can harvest his portion.

19.13 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Here’s a related, very interesting passage from the Old Testament, Daniel 12:2, “sometime after the archangel Michael wars against Satan in heaven, many of Daniel’s people (Sons of Jacob) who sleep in the earth will awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt”

https://biblehub.com/daniel/12-2.htm.

We can check the harvest chart above and see that the owner’s portion of the Fruit or Good Grape Harvest doesn’t take place until Rev. 14 and the first fruits of the Good Grape Harvest must have happened before that. So, it fits that those who slept in the earth and will awake to everlasting life mentioned in Rev. 12 and Daniel 12:2 are the first fruits.

Remember the Gleanings

19.14 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Since using the three harvest model, those who I used to call the ‘last martyrs,’ although they literally are the last martyrs, are more appropriately called the gleanings of the Good Grape Harvest.

19.15 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Important Event that sets off the Entire ‘Good Grape Harvest’

19.16 Glory God Beyond, Jews

Although this section is a bit out of order because the Two Witnesses are raptured right before the first-fruits of the Good Grape Harvest, which I already described, I need to write about them here:

19.17 Glory God Beyond, Jews

The Turning Point

After the Two Witnesses are resurrected, there will be a severe earthquake that destroys a tenth of Jerusalem killing 7,000 people. All these events will provoke many, especially eye witnesses in Jerusalem, to terror, which will cause a great number of them to turn to the one true God. At last they’ll give God Almighty all the righteous glory, in Jesus Christ’s name. They’ll acknowledge Him as their Messiah. And He’ll receive the glory that only He deserves! HALLELUJAH!
