Context does suggest the Church that has been being addressed for the last two chapters. I also like how 4:1 explains what the sound of the Rapture Trumpet is. Not everything in Revelation is in chronological order, but I think this is.
Revelation 4:1
“After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.”
The first thing John sees is the (pre-trib) Rapture.
Revelation 4:1
“After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.”
The first thing John sees is the (pre-trib) Rapture.
