The first five seals are not prophecies of specific future events but a record of human history. The first half of the Beast's reign will look like the millennial reign of Christ.
REPLY
This is actually funny. You can't believe this without watering down the seals. Moreover, this is just as wrong as taking the days of creation figuratively.

COOL THEORY
Hello my brother in Christ, We are NOT living in the Old Covenant. I came to a realization that the time of the End was the time of the Old Covenant Age. Jesus Fulfilled ALL that was written . Once you see it through a fulfilled lense , you won;t have to keep waiting for a Future END times. WE ARE in the NEW COVENANT in CHRIST !!!!! I HOPE and PRAY that you will SEE what JESUS showed me . The Kingdom of GOD IS WHITHIN US !!!! WE ALL Fell for the 1948 Bait.
ANSWER
I don't trust anything that people get from Jesus or the Holy Spirit. I only go with the word of God. Anything people get from Jesus or the Holy Spirit that contradicts the Bible is actually from fallen spirits pretending to be Jesus or the Holy Spirit.
Your assumptions are so far off that it is hard to wrap my mind around how you could possibly believe them.
First of all, no dispensationalist I know believes that we are in the Old Covenant times.
Secondly, the prophetic era is the Lord returning to the people under the Old Covenant to give them a second chance to embrace the New Covenant in Jesus and his blood. National Israel can only receive her national promises through Jesus and the new covenant.
Thirdly, the kingdom of God is not within us. This is a misinterpretation of a single verse that contradicts dozens of plain statements of Scripture. The kingdom is Jesus literally descending from heaven and literally smashing the entire planet starting with the literal battle of Armageddon.
Please Jesus. Give me some spiritual cocaine about the kingdom having come already so that I don't have to worry about the plain statements of Scripture which talk about a literal great tribulation, a literal antichrist, a literal mark of the beast, a literal Armageddon, and a literal absolute, world-smashing judgment at the second coming, and a literal kingdom here on earth ruled over by Jesus in the flesh in Jerusalem.

QUESTION
How can you see a pre tribulation rapture at the coming of the Lord?
ANSWER
The coming of the Lord has two aspects: the apantesis and the parousia. These are developed in 1 Thess. 4:13-18. Parousia was used as a technical term for the entrance of a king when he came for a royal visit. Apantesis was used as a technical term for the citizens going out to meet the king and accompanying him in his royal train. They often went out one, two, or even three days early to meet the king. The rapture is the apantesis of the parousia. The second coming is the parousia proper. This makes a clear temporal distinction between the rapture and the second coming, and makes equating them impossible.

We are not in the end times as modern Israel fulfills ZERO Biblical prophecy. 55% of Jews live OUTSIDE OF ISRAEL and nearly 300k have left in the past three years with the rate of emigration increasing while Amos 9:15 says the return will be PERMANENT: "I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them,โ says the Lord your God". Ezekiel 36 and 37 says the restoration will of ALL JEWS from ALL NATIONS with hearts turned towards God and he will appoint a DAVIDIC KING - the Zionist government is secular and democratic and persecutes strict observance of the Torah and 70% of Israeli Jews don't believe in the Torah - does this sound like a fulfillment of any prophecy? I'm Christian and Jewish btw.
ANSWER
It absolutely sounds like prophecy. Do you only believe half of Bible prophecy? The Bible is clear that Israel will be gathered in her unbelief and restored to national status while yet in her unbelief. The Bible is clear that national Israel in her national unbelief will rebuild the temple with the help of their dubious "messiah." The Bible is clear that God will return to national Israel for the seventieth week while she is still in unbelief that he may give them a second chance to embrace their rejected Messiah, bring an end to their unbelief, and bring them to faith. Don't confuse the gathering of faith after the tribulation with the gathering of unbelief before the tribulation for the tribulation.

Id love to see you debunk Paul Dorgan's 6th video session video at his youtube channel on the pre-wrath rapture. He easily debunks pretrib, id love see your rebuttal, Lee! Much love brother.
ANSWER
I have read or watched several dozen distinct pre-wrath presentations over the past 35 years. All have the same backbone --- the rapture happens after the opening of the sixth seal with the signs in the heavens and before or at the opening of the seventh seal. If a person actually examines every passage in the Bible that presents the signs in the heavens, they will discover that those signs happen at the second coming, not sometime during the seventieth week. This is FATAL to every presentation of the pre-wrath rapture. This demands that the seals, trumpets, and bowls overlap with the seals and the series all ending at the second coming.

Mmmm...Brother Lee.....
How can someone, the same person, I mean, proclaim: "Take The Plain Statements of Scripture at Face Value"
and, at the same time say that " For as Jonas was THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS in the heart of the earth" Means whatever ELSE, different completely and absolutely OTHER than "THREE DAYS AND THREE NIGHTS"????????
What should we do with You brother Lee? I mean, What should we think about You, brother Lee, and about your integrity and loyalty?
MY RESPONSE
The question you need to ask is what does the Bible mean by "three days and three nights"? Idioms must be taken as idioms. If you take idioms in stiltedly literal senses, you are just as wrong as those who allegorize things intended to be taken literally. Please note that the Bible makes it very clear that Jesus rose ON THE THIRD DAY. If he rose on the third day, he couldn't have risen on the fourth day, that is, after three full days and nights. The Bible also uses the three days idiom in Esther, and Esther enters the king's presence on the third day. The Bible is its own interpreter. And taking the Bible at face value includes taking the Bible's own interpretations of its statements at face value and ignoring the hyperspiritual claims of those who force lines of Scripture to fit their own agenda and reject the Bible's commentary on the matter as lies from hell.

After John was put in prison Jesus' first words were "The TIME IS FULFILLED, the Kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe the gospel." Jesus was telling us that the final week was being fulfilled, not just some generic time, Daniels time. You have no right to split those Seventy Weeks into some rubber band theory and attribute them to some future antichrist.
RESPONSE
Saying that the kingdom is at hand is not the same thing as saying that the Lord and his disciples were already in the seventieth week. This is atrocious theology and grammar that only Catholics and half-Catholics can embrace. Congratulations on caving in to Catholic theology.
Please note that Jesus performed his earthly ministry during the 69th week, not the 70th. The grammar of Daniel 9:24-27 has the Lord crucified AFTER the 69th week, and has the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 BEFORE the coming of the king of the people who overthrew Jerusalem, even the man we call antichrist. The passage absolutely demands a window of time between the 69th week and the 70th week. It doesn't tell us how long that window is. That we must gather from elsewhere.
Further, Daniel 9:24-27 has the sin problem completely fixed at the end of the 70th week, and everlasting righteousness brought in. Unless you have intentionally poked your eyes out, the sin problem is not fixed and everlasting righteousness has not been introduced. The world has been filled with iniquity for the past 1990 plus years. Paying for man's redemption on the cross so sins can be forgiven introduces blood justification for the believer. It does not fill the world with righteousness. "They kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." If the kingdom has already come, then heaven is full of sin and hypocrisy.
