Good, you are back. Getting interesting is it not? I know I sound like a broken record, but I really hope you are checking scripture and reading along in your Bible as we study the End Times. If so, you truly know what we have discovered is Biblical Truth as we proceed into the Christian Sheep Saving realm.
We now know that Antichrist will be an evil world leader that will
rule over an empire for 3½ years, that will consist of many
countries around Europe, Russia and the Middle East.
Now, before we begin our How To Reap Bible Study on the bring in the sheep
Bible verses, I want to take this time to explain this once again.
After we learned earlier of the 2nd "Rapture" in between the 6th and
7th Trumpet and the Kingdoms of this world becoming the kingdoms of
the Lord.
We then learned about the Two Witnesses (Revelation, Chapter 11) The
woman in the wilderness (Revelation, Chapter 12) and about Antichrist
and his empire (Revelation, Chapter 13). This is very important for
you to understand ... Revelation, Chapters 11-13 each speak of a
3½ year period that the Two Witnesses prophecy during, the
believing Israelites and Christians are hidden in the wilderness and
Antichrist reigns with terror.
All 3 of these events happen during the same 3½ year
time period.
Is it coincidence that Jesus the true Christ had a ministry
that lasted 3½ years and Anti-Christ will reign terror
the same amount of time?
Satan is trying to mirror image what God did as to deceive
mankind.
Let us continue our How To Reap Bible study journey into the End Times. The Bible has just
shared with you three different events that occur within the
same 3½ years period. The Two Witnesses ministry, the Woman
hidden in the wilderness and Antichrist reign of terror. In
others words ... Revelation, Chapters 11, 12 and 13 are all occurring
during the second 3½ years of the seven years of Tribulation.
It is very important for you to understand that the events in
Chapter 14 occur before these events.
Now, let us proceed with the Christian Sheep calling of bringing in the sheep. We are
now in Chapter 14 of the Book of Revelation. It begins by discussing
what became of the 144,000 Jewish males that had the mark of God
placed in their foreheads. As you recall we learned of these fellas
earlier when they received the seal of God.
Revelation 7:3-4
3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the
trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and
there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the
tribes of the children of Israel.
Next in on our How To Reap Bible study, we have a Lamb (Jesus) standing on Mount Zion, which
is located in Israel and with Him is the 144,000 that were given the
seal of God. Remember these were virgin, Jewish, male Christians
which are now being "redeemed from the Earth" (taken to Heaven). This
is one bringing in the sheep.
Revelation 14:1-4
1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion,
and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's
name written in their foreheads.
2 And I heard a voice from Heaven, as the voice of many
waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of
harpers harping with their harps:
3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne,
and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn
that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were
redeemed from the earth.
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for
they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever
he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits
unto God and to the Lamb.
Now these Jewish Christian Sheep are on Mount Zion with Jesus, their Shepherd.
Another Angel with the everlasting Gospel told all mankind to fear
God and give Him glory, because the hour of judgment had come.
Revelation 14:7
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the
hour of His judgment is come: and worship Him that made Heaven, and
Earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Another Angel said Babylon is fallen, because it made all
nations to "drink of the wine of her wrath of her sin."
Revelation 14:8
And there followed another Angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is
fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the
wine of the wrath of her fornication.
Another Angel came and said, if anyone worships Antichrist or the
image that is made or takes the mark of Antichrist (which we learned
about earlier) would be tormented with fire and brimstone forever.
Revelation 14:9-11
9 And the third Angel followed them, saying with a loud
voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his
mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God,
which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation;
and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of
the Holy Angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever
and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast
and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
Next in out How To Reap Bible Study, we are told, blessed are they which
die in the Lord from this point on. Does this not further
suggest that there are Christians dying for the cause this late in
the End Times?
Revelation 14:12-13
12 Here is the patience of the Saints: here are they that
keep the commandments of God, and the Faith of Jesus.
13 And I heard a voice from Heaven saying unto me, Write,
Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their
works do follow them.
In other words, when Antichrist demands that you worship him and his
image and take the mark, it is better to die than accept his terms,
because to say yes, means you go to Hell and then to the lake of
fire, forever ... My friend, forever is a long time.
It is time to discuss more bring in the sheep Bible verses and
discover who is bringing in the sheep Gathering.
Now, I want to take this opportunity to remind you of this Truth.
There will be Christians on Earth dying for the name of Jesus
after the Raptures at least up to Chapter 14 in the Book of
Revelation. So, if anyone tells you that all Christians will
be Raptured and even add that these Christians will all be
Raptured before the End Times ...
Beware ... Because the Bible clearly reveals that their opinion is just not true and believing that theory would have Christians feel they need not prepare. Let God's Word prevail. It is now time to continue our How To Reap Bible Study on the bring in the sheep Bible verses as to find out who is bringing in the sheep and why Christian Sheep need to be led to their true Shepherd.
There is one like the Son of man with a crown on his head (Jesus) and in his hand was a sickle. Another Angel told Him to thrust in His sickle to the Earth and to separate the good people, from the bad.
Revelation 14:14-15
14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the
cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on His head a golden
crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another Angel came out of the Temple, crying with a
loud voice to Him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and
reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the
earth is ripe.
Then another Angel with a sickle comes and gathers the bad people and
"casts them into the winepress of the wrath of God." It is said that
it will be so bad on Earth that the blood will be up to a horses
bridle.
Revelation 14:17-20
17 And another Angel came out of the Temple which is in
Heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
18 And another Angel came out from the altar, which had
power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to Him that had the sharp
sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters
of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the Angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and
gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress
of the wrath of God.
20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and
blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the
space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
Wow ... Next in our How To Reap Bible Study quest for facts within the bring in the sheep Bible verses, we are now in Chapter 15, Jesus has just gathered His Jewish elect (First Fruits) that were still on Earth and taken them to Heaven. These are they who did not accept the Antichrist or worship him or his image. This trap is going to capture many Christian Sheep.
Revelation 15:2-4
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire:
and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his
image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand
on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of
God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy
works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of
Saints.
4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name?
for thou only art Holy: for all nations shall come and worship before
thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
This event known as the gathering (bringing in the sheep) and these Jewish
people showing up on the "sea of glass" in Heaven.
Revelation 15:2
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that
had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and
over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of
glass, having the harps of God.
This is the same event as the 2nd "Rapture" of the Christian Sheep and is at the same
time. Let's get back to our How To Reap Bible Study discovering the true meaning
of the bring in the sheep Bible verses. Now ... What about this 2
Rapture thing. Why, 2 "Raptures?" It is simple. The first Rapture is
for "Gentiles." Check this out:
Revelation 7:9-14
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;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our
God which sitteth upon the Throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the Angels stood round about the throne, and
about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on
their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and
thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for
ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What
are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to
me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have
washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Note that it says all nations and kinds of people show up in
Heaven before the throne of God. This means the "Gentiles" (non-
Jewish people).
Now, in our How To Reap Bible Study we see how they also bring in the sheep
in the 2nd Rapture:
Revelation 15:2-3
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire:
and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his
image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on
the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and
the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works,
Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of Saints.
This says that those that knew the song of Moses, show up in Heaven. Again, in Chapter 14, right before these Jewish people show up in Heaven, He will gather (bring in the sheep) His "first fruits," which are Jewish people. First fruits are the best sacrifices that were given to God by Israel, in the Old Testament. But why would God "Rapture" the Gentile believers before he would "Rapture" the Jewish people? The answer is simple. The Jewish people had the opportunity to accept Jesus as their Lord and crucified Him instead.
Now, we see in our How To Reap Bible Study that they must encounter
Antichrist and many will see Truth and accept Jesus as the Lord, and
many Jewish souls will find Truth before the end.
Christian Sheep Saving Note. In the first "Rapture" there had been no mention of Antichrist ... This is because the Gospel (Truth of Jesus) was not taught to the "Gentiles" during the time of the Jewish people as for them to be able to accept Him as their Lord until after Jesus' death and resurrection. So the "Gentiles" do not have to experience Antichrist, because they were not aware of the Truth and were not participants of the Time of the Jewish people.
In short, we find within our How To Reap Bible Study trek for truth found in the bring in the sheep Bible verses that if a "Gentile" believes in Christ, they will be taken to Heaven at the 1st "Rapture" ... The only way Gentiles will experience Antichrist is if they were non-believers (or are called to preach during the End Times even unto death or are the ones that stay hidden as to replenish the Earth as we found to be the Truth).
But, in the 2nd "Rapture:"
Revelation 7:9-14
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;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our
God which sitteth upon the Throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the Angels stood round about the throne, and
about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on
their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and
thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for
ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What
are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to
me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have
washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Remember: ... This is an important Reap Bible Study truth. It
says that these who were raptured are they who did not accept
Antichrist, and were brought to Heaven at this "Rapture." which
means they were there during Antichrist's 3½ year reign of
terror as to have had the choice to accept or deny Antichrist. Pray for the Christian Sheep.
Revelation 15:2
And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that
had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over
his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass,
having the harps of God.
How To Reap Bible Study Summary
Bring in the Sheep Bible Verses Conclusion
See, many people will figure things out as time passes during the End
Times, because there will be called Christians with the Truth
and will be on Earth preaching to everyone, like the Two Witnesses
will be.
In short ... "Gentile" believers will be taken to Heaven, 3½ years before the Jewish people that do not accept Antichrist as their Lord, because there will be preachers such as the Two witnesses and Called Christians exposing the Truth and many non-believers will become believers during that 3½ year period at the cost of the lives of those who chose to share Truth with the Revelation 7:9-14 ... Jesus will be bringing in the sheep that are His. Those non-believers that are left here on Earth will experience God's wrath, which we will look at next, as we continue on into, the End Times.
