No
Ken peters saw graves opening up and people going up PRETRIB.
I’m glad you interpret the Lord’s command to repent as being applicable to a current lukewarm portion of the church. I started reading Revelation in 2017 and used to be part of the harlot system of Mystery Babylon.
My interpretation of Daniel’s 70th week with regard to the church allows for the rapture to occur within the week. I do agree with you that the church is removed prior to the Day of the Lord. However, I don’t view it as a pre-tribulation event. It is my view that the Bible only gives a general time frame for the DOL.
Yea, I might enjoy reading the transcript again. Ken describes the resurrection of the dead occurring.
“All those who came out of the graves just disappeared. I never saw them go up into the clouds. They just vanished.
I did not see one single living person changed into a new body. I did not see any changes coming to any living person.”
He then speaks of a period two weeks later. “The new world leader then appeared on television. He spoke with great eloquence and charisma.”
I don’t view the opening of the first seal as occurring at the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week. I don’t equate the time of God’s wrath (DOL) with the opening of the first five seals. In the first 5 seals, there is no mention of the wrath of God. I view this as the time that Jesus calls "the beginning of sorrows" and have looked at the parallels between Matt. 24/Rev.6. The word ‘wrath’ is mentioned nine times in connection to God after the opening of the 6th seal. This is part of the reason I see the harpazo of the ‘child’ of Rev 12:5 as being a pre-wrath event and not an event prior to Daniel’s 70th week.
I don’t see there needing to be exactly 3 1/2 years from the revealing of the antichrist until the midpoint. I’ve seen abundant signs from Matthew 24:4-8 and Israel is close to being at war with Iran. The church is having to endure now in this time of tribulation as many have had to leave their jobs over vaccine mandates. I know some see it as inter-age trials/tribulation that are not part of the tribulation of Daniel’s 70th week. I believe that the Bible teaches expectancy as well as imminence.
Yes, the resurrection/rapture will occur very near/prior to the revealing of the antichrist as described in Ken’s dream. I don’t think the opening of the first seal begins Daniel’s 70th week. I don’t call it a ‘pre-tribulation’ event because I see the church present during the ‘time of sorrows’ within Daniel’s 70th week.
The following excerpt describes this 70th week of Daniel as a ‘transitional period.’
“First, with the birth of the Church (Acts 2), God did not stop his working with Israel. Bible scholars have always looked at the book of Acts to be a book of transition from Israel to the Church--from the age of law to the age of grace. The first converts were Jews (Acts 2). Early believers continued to go to the temple for worship (Acts 3:1).
Secondly, it would be impossible to defend the position that a Jewish man, who was deemed righteous and acceptable before God under the OT economy the day before Christ died, was unrighteous and rejected the day after Christ's death. The period after the death and resurrection of Christ was the passing of the old economy to the new one--but both economies co-existed for a period of time.
The 70th week will be exactly the same. It will be a transitional period, in reverse this time, from the Church to Israel. As Israel entered the Church age, the Church will enter the 70th week.
The Church will enter the 70th week and co-exist with Israel. God will have purposes for both, cleansing for the church and judgment and salvation for the Jews. Then both will live and reign with Christ.”
I’ve been looking more into various interpretations of Rev 3:10. Alexander Reese says this about Rev 3:10:
"the use of ek in Rev 3:10 distinctly implies that the Overcomer would be in the hour of tribulation; the promise refers either to removal from out of the midst of it, or preservation through it."
“It is very interesting to note, that there is only one other time in the entire NT that
tereo ek is used. And that is found in John 17:15.”
