Have you ever compared the end time discourses by Jesus in the three Gospels; Matthew, Mark, and Luke and then compared them with the events listed in Revelation. If you do, it will yield an interesting result. Take a look…
|  | Matthew 24 | Mark 13 | Luke 21 | Revelation 6,7 | 
| Deception | 5.  For many shall come in my name, saying, I
  am Christ; and shall deceive many. | 6.  For many shall come in my name, saying, I
  am Christ; and shall deceive many. | 8.  And he said, Take heed that ye be not
  deceived | 2.  And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he
  that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth
  conquering, and to conquer. | 
| War | 6.  And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of
  wars: | 7.  And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours
  of wars | 9.  But when ye shall hear of wars and
  commo-tions | 4.  And there went out another horse that was
  red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth | 
| Famine, Pestilence, Earthquakes | 7.
  and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
  places. | 8.
  there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and
  troubles | 11.
  And great earth-quakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and
  pestilences | 5.
  And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of
  balances in his hand.  6.  A measure of wheat for a penny, and three
  measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. 7
  And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast
  say, Come and see. 8
  And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was
  Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the
  fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with
  death, and with the beasts of the earth. | 
| Sorrows | 8.  All these are the beginning of sorrows. | 8.
  these are the beginnings of sorrows |  |  | 
| Persecution | 9.  Then shall they deliver you up to be
  afflicted, and shall kill you: | 9.
  for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be
  beaten: |  | 9.  And when he had opened the fifth seal, I
  saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the Word of God,
  and for the testimony which they held: | 
| A of D | 15.  When ye therefore shall see the abomination
  of desolation | 14.  But when ye shall see the abomination of
  desolation |  |  | 
| Great  Tribulation | 21.  For then shall be great tribulation | 19.  For in those days shall be affliction, such
  as was not from the beginning of the creation | 23.
  for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people |  | 
| Signs in sun, moon, stars | 29.
  Im-mediately 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 | 24.
  after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not
  give her light, 25.  And the stars of
  heaven shall fall | 25.  And there shall be signs in the sun, and in
  the moon, and in the stars | 12.  And I beheld when he had opened the sixth
  seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth
  of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13. 
  And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth | 
| See the Lord | 30.  And then shall appear the sign of the Son
  of man in heaven…and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds | 26.  And then shall they see the Son of man
  coming in the clouds | 27.  And then shall they see the Son of man
  coming in a cloud | 16.
  Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and
  from the wrath of the Lamb: | 
| Rapture | 31.  And he shall send his angels with a great
  sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect | 27.  And then shall he send his angels, and
  shall gather together his elect from the four winds |  | 7:9,14.
  lo, a great multitude, which no man could number…These are they which came
  out of great tribulation, | 
So, what do we see?
In all 3 Gospels Jesus starts off talking about deception which undoubtedly emphasizes the fact that one of the underlying tenets of the end times will be deception. That is what the devil and his workers are all about—deception. And it is interesting to note that the first event of the end times is the Seal 1 rider on the white horse that conquers the world with no arrows—undoubtedly through deception.
Then Jesus talks about wars and rumors of wars, which aligns with the Seal 2 red horse that removes peace from the earth.
And
then next Jesus speaks of famines, pestilences, and earthquakes. This aligns
with the 3rd and 4th Seals—the black and gangrene horse
that bring a scarcity of food and death.
Thus, so far what Jesus tells us will happen in the end times aligns perfectly and in chronological order with the first 4 Seals of Revelation 6. Jesus further tells us that these are only the beginning of sorrows
And what comes next in the end times timeline explained by Jesus? He says Persecution will come, which also aligns with the next event in Revelation—the Seal 5 persecution—the great tribulation.
And then Jesus tells us when He is coming back at the rapture, He says.
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
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven…and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds
31. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect.
Are you getting this? After the tribulations of Seals 1 to 5 Jesus says the sun will be darkened, the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven. Seal 6 is the time when the sun is darkened, the moon does not give its light and the stars fall.
12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
Then
Jesus tells us that He will appear in the clouds and the saints are gathered to
Him at the rapture.
Thus, an examination of the end times chronology presented by Jesus in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and then comparing it to the events of Revelation 6, this clearly shows that the rapture follows the opening of Seal 6.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36
