Small is Large

When I use the term “remnant” it doesn’t mean only a few thousand people, thankfully. Revelation states that many will come through the tribulation:

“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; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” Revelation 7:9-14 KJV

When I think of a lot of people, a couple million would be huge. But you compare this to over 6 billion that are now on the earth and the percentage gets very small. Let’s say that John saw 50 million people, just for the sake of argument. Out of 6 billion people that would be a little more than 8% that spends eternity in heaven. That’s not a lot, and likely not that many would come from America.

God wants you to be in that multitude. You will have the ability to overcome the beast if you are a follower of Christ. You too can be part of the remnant, but do not be deceived! To be deceived will cost you your soul; it is not worth your soul to listen to people who will bring death, no matter how nice their arguments sound.
