Thanks for your opinion. But seal 2 is the start of wars between people and nations..
... which I believe the Gog-Magog War is A PART of... noting the similarities of words found in
both Seal #2 and Ezek38:4 ("all of them handling
SWORDS")/ v.21's "
SWORD [2x]" (including "every man's
SWORD will be against his brother")... i.e. wars. (where the words "pestilence" [and so forth] follow in the next verse...)
And besides the "7 months" of burying the dead bodies and the "7 years" of burning the weapons, I've mentioned also the similarity in wording between what is stated
in Ezek39:7 and that of what was said
in the SECOND YEAR of Joseph's "
7 year famine"
in Gen45:1 [,6].
V.7 "SO [/in this manner]
will I MAKE MY NAME KNOWN in the midst of
My people Israel" (compare Gen45:1,6 "there STOOD NO MAN with him while Joseph
MADE HIMSELF KNOWN UNTO HIS BRETHREN")... and noting the "wrath" wording in Ezek38:18,19.
The time of Gods wrath is the day of the lord.
Agreed.
But "the day of the Lord" is said to ARRIVE "exactly like [
hosper]" the INITIAL "birth PANG [SINGULAR]" that comes upon a woman in labor, and Jesus spoke of those [PLURAL] as occurring
prior to and
leading up to the "AOD" [start of the GREAT tribulation]...
...noting especially the FIRST ONE He mentioned, which was Matt24:
4 / Mk13:
5 "G5100 -
tis - 'A CERTAIN ONE' ['a certain one'
bringing deception]" which corresponds perfectly with the "whose COMING / ADVENT / ARRIVAL / PRESENCE /
PAROUSIA" (2Th2:9a) of the man of sin, which verse corresponds with part "a" of Dan9:27 (9:27a) at the START of the "for ONE WEEK [/7 yrs]" (as well as Dan11:36-37
=2Th2:4a,9) ... not at the LATER point in time (Dan9:27b, which corresponds with 2Th2:4b "sitteth," not to mention Dan11:12's "SET UP [H5414]" point in time, of the "abomination [singular] of desolation [singular]" Jesus referred to in Matt24:15--at the start of the GT [/second half of the 7 yr period]).
Additionally, the SEALS of Rev6 are equivalent "the beginning of birth pangs" Jesus spoke of... and the SEALS are included within the "
things which must come to pass IN QUICKNESS [NOUN]" per Rev1:1 / 1:19c [/4:1], i.e. the "future" aspects of the book (that is, AFTER the "24 elders" saying "hast redeemed US to God by thy blood out-of EVERY..." and wearing "
stephanous / crowns" which are said to be awarded "IN
THAT DAY"...
not the day of Paul's / others' DEATHS, as many suppose).
It is the final 3.5 years. Or the great tribulation. Not the whole 7 year period
Disagree, for reasons stated above... and many more...
