This chapter chronicles the end of days on earth.Can't post it here cos of a poor phone im using.My question is the 144000 from the 12 tribes of israel who are sealed with God's mark, they pass thru the tribulation period but are untouched. Will the rest of us be in heaven by then? Verses 9 to 15 talk about the rest of the world who are uncountable in number and are now in heaven serving God in his temple where angels are but passed through great tribulation .

Revelation 7:4
And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Revelation 7:9-10
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; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

The 144,000 is not the number of people to be saved throughout the earth , They are only to be sealed from the 12 tribes of Israel during the tribulation. The church would have been raptured to heaven before this time.

Thks. Can anyone summarize their understanding of revelation chpt 12-20? Pls i beg u , i dont know if the harlot being referred to is america...

And I said to him, “Sir, you know.”So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
-Revelation 7:14 (NKJV)

The great multitude envisioned by apostle John are those who will survive(come out of) the great tribulation. They will not be "raptured" before the great tribulation, but will experience and survive it. You cannot come out of something you have not experienced. The truth is many will perish and many will come out of (survive) it. Are you afraid?

I don't really get your point. Of course people will get saved during the tribulation. There will be preaching during tribulation. The bible even talk about the 2 witnesses who will preach in the middle east. There will be several raptures in the tribulation.
