Dear Friends,
When we consider all the language of the Bible relating to the salvation of the Elect Body coming out of Babylon. Is there sufficient information in the Bible telling us that God is saving anyone? Many say that today is a time when God is saving a great multitude:
Re 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
However, when we factor in the rest of the Bible, we see that this great multitude identifies with the two witnesses who'd been killed at the start of the tribulation. In other words, this is a time when God is gathering those who were already saved and who had yet to receive revelation. This would make sense if we consider the following language which seems to coincide with the depart out:
Mt 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Mt 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mt 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Well there is a lot more to share on this subject but the challenge before us now is, where in the Bible can we confirm that God is only saving people outside of the local churches.
Please share your understanding of these things as we look only to the Bible for truth.
