There is a time that will come right after the Rapture of the Church when basically it will be hell on earth. In this article I will cover the seven seals in the book of revelation. These are the disasters and the plagues that the ones left behind need to become very familiar with in order to have any chance of survival during that horrible time.

The Seven Year Tribulation has a few names.The Tribulation PeriodThe Time of Jacob's TroubleGreat TribulationGod's Wrath https://youtu.be/9iZxKMOP0vA As mentioned in the introduction article, the USA is not found in Bible prophecy. I like to think the United States is still a majority Christian nation, but I think I may be mistaken. The reason I like to think that is it seems to rationalize the reason the United States is not found in Bible prophecy when the Nation of Israel is attacked and no nation goes to their aid. There are only a couple reasons that the USA would not go to Israels aid if they were attacked. They have a large scale war they are dealing with themselves or they are so devastated by an attack that they simply have no way to respond. I think they are so preoccupied with the chaos that will be taking place when the Rapture happens that their world is turned upside down and they can't pull anything together in time to respond to an attack on Israel. The Effects Of The Rapture In the moment, In the twinkling of an eye. Millions of believers in Christ suddenly disappear. The effects on a nation the size of the United States would be devastating. Military personnel just gone. Vehicles being driven just start crashing. Planes falling from the sky. Workers operating machines and equipment disappear and the machines don't stop. Fires breaking out and the fire fighters are gone or too busy fighting other fires to respond. Power plants shut down, reactors overheat and explode. Chemical plants that are monitored 24/7 are melting down. This is just the beginning. Right after millions of people just disappear from the earth, millions of others are dead within minutes due to the effects of the Rapture. Some theologians say there is a gap between the Rapture and the rise of the antichrist. I couldn't think of a better time for the antichrist to rise and come offering a false peace. The Length Of The Great Tribulation Period The Jewish calendar has 30 days per month, which is 360 days per year, so 2520 days equals seven years. This will be the longest seven years people on this earth shall see. The thing to come during this time will cause men's heart to fail just from watching. The Seven Seals There is a book mentioned in the bible in the book of Daniel that God instructed him to seal up until the time of the end (Daniel 12:7-9). This book, I believe is the book mentioned in the fifth chapter of Revelation on which Jesus will break the seals right after the Rapture. The effects of these seals being broken are in sixth chapter of the book of Revelation. The First Seal Revelation 6:1-2 The first seal is broken and a white horse rides. The color white represents peace. The rider is given a bow, but there is no mention of arrows, he is also given a crown which represents him as a leader. It says he will go conquering. This is the antichrist that comes under false pretenses to lead with world peace after all of the chaos caused by the Rapture, but he will wage war on the saints. The people will be looking for a leader to explain what has happened and to lead them through it. The Second Seal Revelation 6:3-4 The second seal is open and a red horse rides. The color red represents blood. The rider is given a sword which represents war and he will take the peace from the earth and the people will kill each other. This rider is also the antichrist. The white horse has been ridden and the red horse is now on the move. There is no mention of these riders being different. The pony express used horses to deliver the mail, the rider would ride one horse until it was tired and then jump on another horse and ride it tired. This is the same method the antichrist is using. This is when world war three begins. Everything we see before the Rapture will be the wars and rumors of wars Jesus mentioned in Matthew 24. The Third Seal Revelation 6:5-6 The third seal is opened and a black horse rides. The color black represents death or darkness. The scales represent a price as the wheat and barley increase drastically due to crops being thinned from the previous wars, But the oil and the wine has been preserved. Oil men have controlled the world for a long time and that doesn't seem to change any. What else has the devil used to destroy families more than alcohol? It seems there will be plenty of wine during the end times as well. Looks to me that everyone becomes vegetarian, I don't see any mention of meat is this verse and food is scarce after the wars. Just as the crops were destroyed, think about the animals that are destroyed as well. This will bring us to a time when the animals are forbidden from being used as food. Besides, what keeps people more calm than bread and water. That is what they used in jails years ago to help keep the inmates relaxed. The Fourth Seal Revelation 6:7-8 The fourth seal is broken and a pale horse rides. The color pale represents sickness, disease and famine. The rider of this horse is give a name and his name is death. Hell follows him and they (demons) are given power over one fourth of the earth. People will be slaughtered, starve to death and killed by the wild animals. At this point, the four horses have ridden and after the wars and the famines and the plagues on earth there probably seems, to anyone that is still alive that there is little too no hope. For one fourth of the earth, it is literally hell on earth. I mean, if you survive this then you should probably already be on your knees praying to the Lord. The Fifth Seal Revelation 6:9-11 The fifth seal is broken and there are the ones that have turned to the Lord during this horrific time and their lives were taken because of their faith and for their testimonies. They are told the judgment will still continue and are all given white robes as they wait for their brethren to be slain for the same reason. The Sixth Seal Revelation 6:12-17 There is a great earthquake, the sun turns black and the moon becomes as blood. Meteors fall from space and every mountain is moved out of its place. There is no place to hide from God, the people realize they are going through judgment and flee to the mountains. Have you ever talked to a doomsday prepper? They will almost always say they will run to the mountains and hide it out. I believe God was way ahead of us on this one. The rich will give you their limousine and all their money to have a hiding place. You may as well take it, but only in cash to use to barter later if you survive. The Bible does ask "who shall be able to stand?" The Seventh Seal Revelation 8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. When the seventh seal is broken there will be silence in Heaven for about half an hour. Just as God rested the seventh day, There will be a short time of silence during the Great Tribulation. This concludes the opening of the seals, But the judgment is far from over. Right after the silence in Heaven the Angels are given seven trumpets and the judgment will continue. The antichrist will still sit on the throne and be given all power over this earth. Summary A leader rises and captivates the world with his talks of world peace and then makes war with the ones that follow Jesus. Great wars break out and the food supplies diminish. People get sick with rampant disease. Death and hell rise to earth and many flee to the mountains to hide from God's judgment and the mountains are moved. After reading this, you may think there is no hope. The ones that overcome the delusion of the antichrist and accept Jesus Christ as their saviour, are the ones that are not affected by many of the plagues during the Great Tribulation. The only hope is in Jesus Christ. If you are not saved, Please visit this site and take the opportunity to consider a relationship with Jesus.
