hello John B...I read your letter about the first 5 seals. And was totally amazed by it! I was raised believing Pretrib. Then last year I began to question that belief. I prayed and seeked God asking Him to show me somehow to KNOW which trib view was the correct one. While seeking God for months and reading all I could find about the different views...I had great peace with the pre-wrath view. I too believe that we will be raptured at the 6 seal. With that said, I believe we are NOW in the beginning half of the tribulation. just seeing the PALE HORSE on national TV should prove that point alone. But, I didn't understand WHEN the seals could have opened and at what time. Yours has been the most convincing.Just the other day, i wondered...how the church could have carried on to this point with ALL the persecutions and martyers over time. wondering what was protecting the church during all the evil in this world over the last 2,000 yrs. Your explanations of the seals, makes sense. I believe the Holy Spirit placed that thought in my mind and prepared me to read your letter. Thanks soo much for sharing! I plan to write this view down in my Bible.Where did you learn this from? Very well thought out!! Thanks again for sharing with us!One thing I do wonder though, In Rev. it says we will endure 10 days of tribulation. I wonder if this is 10 days of GREAT Tribulation? Can you explain what this means?In Christ,kathy s.
