"The breaking of the seals has not yet occurred.  The events they depict are still future.  The seals will be broken within a still future seven-year period, biblically referred to as the Seventieth week of Daniel.  (Daniel 9:24-27)" By Marvin Rosenthal

Donnie's Remarks...

Marvin Rosenthal, Author, Teacher and Executive Director of Zion's Hope Ministries, has a marvelous new website and it is loaded with valuable information concerning the end times.  Marv's excellent book, The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church, has been foundational to this website and my understanding of Bible prophecy.  I had the privilege of meeting Marv once, and we had a memorable conversation.  Marv asked me what argument in his book most convinced me that the Rapture would not be 'pre-tribulation.'  I told him, "That's easy, 2 Thessalonians 2 and how the Church would witness the Antichrist proclaiming himself God in the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem before the Second Coming of Jesus."  Marv smiled and heartily shook his head up and down. "Exactly," he responded.

³ Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.
