Operation of Error

Based upon my response to a letter.

Consider that when the scriptures speak of Christ's return,
at Mal.3:1,2,3, it tells us that he must refine the priests like gold, to cleanse them.
He refers to this at Rev.3:18,19 (Heb.12:11) when he speaks of acquiring from him, gold refined by fire.
Gold represents our heart (Prov.17:3). Fire is God's Word (Jer.23:29; Zech.13:9;  1Cor. 3:13,14).
Our hearts must contain a faith and understanding, that is purified of dross, by means of God's Word of Truth.
We all need this, as we come out of Wormwood's poison 

(Rev.8:11; Jer.9:15; 23:15;  2Cor. 6:16,17,18; Isa.52:11; Rev.18:4).
If we do not get a new "wineskin" (Mark 2:22), we cannot accept the new wine at the marriage feast.
If we are open to reconsideration, God's Word provides a basis for adjustment.
Some things will not be simple to make concise,
and you may need to consider an article to grasp the point.
The things I will share with you are vital. Any lack of knowledge during this spiritual tribulation, can mean death, and falling (Mal.3:2; Rom.14:4) while being inspected by the Master (Hosea 4:6; Isa.5:13; Matt.24:42; 5:13; Rev.11:2; 3:3).

First, I would like to call your attention to all of  1Cor.,chapter 12 (Click: 1Cor.12:1-31), and Eph.2:20,21,22;
and ask you if you have yet become clear on which part of Christ's body God has assigned to you.
Accomplishing our own divine assignment depends upon discerning the body and our place within it.
Those who do not make this distinction risk judgment, due to their lack of cooperation with God's spirit,
and their placement as He has determined (1Cor. 12:4,11,18; 11:28,29,31,27).

For now, I hope to give you a few things to pray and think about.
The resurrected Christ is father to the 12 apostles and their 12 tribes (John 17:12,6; 18:9; Heb.2:13)
(Matt.19:27,28; Rev.21:14; Eph.2:20;  1John 4:9; 5:11; Isa.9:6).
The scriptures often refer to him prophetically...not as Joseph, but as Jacob (Isa.58:14; 59:20; 60:16).
Jacob's name was changed to "Israel", and he was told this reflected that he would become father to the twelve tribes of Israel (Gen.35:10;  1Kings 18:31). The resurrected Jesus Christ has become the father of the 12 tribes of spiritual Israel
(Ex.4:22; John 1:14; Gal.6:16; 3:7,29; Rom.9:6;  1Pet. 1:3,23; James 1:18; John 1:4;  2Cor. 5:17; Psalm 45:16).
Jacob had twelve sons who became the fathers of each of the 12 tribes. This corresponds to the 12 apostles (Rev.21:12,14).
Joseph was one of the 12 brothers.
Joseph receives a double portion from God (through himself and one of his sons--Manasseh) (Rev.7:6,8; Eze.47:13).
Ephriam (Joseph's other son -Gen.46:20) was left out of the inheritance of spiritual Israel (144000) because of who he prophetically stands for (Psalm 78:67,68; Isa.28:1,7; Hosea 5:3,9; Rev.17:6; Matt.24:49).
But you are right... "Joseph" does provide food during time of famine (Rev.11:3; Rev.12:6; 18:8).

Joseph was sent ahead into Egypt to provide food,
just as the "two witnesses" provide "food" for the "Woman" (Rev.11:3; 12:6) and those same "slain",
provide food for the "eagles" (Rev.6:9,10,11; 11:7,8; Job 39:27,28,29,30; Luke 17:37; Rev.12:14,6; 11:3).
The food for the woman, is provided by "Joseph", who is also the last prophet/herald/Elijah to come
(Matt.25:6; Mal.3:1; Zech.4:9,10; Isa.40:3; Matt.17:11).

Jesus told us that when we see the "disgusting thing standing in the holy place",
we are to flee to the "Judean Mountains" in the wilderness (Matt.24:16; Heb.13:13; Luke 21:21; Rev.18:4).
The identity of these "mountains" which are providing food (Zech.6:1; 4:12,14; Rev.11:3,4; Matt.17:3; Ps.72:3,16)
are members of the sealed anointed, and have also been assigned in the Body by God, as prophets
(Num.12:6; Eze.36:8; 34:14; Joel 3:18; Rev.11:3; Amos 3:7; Rev.10:7;  1Cor. 12:28,29; Eph.2:20).
They are the "seven stars"/"angels"/messengers/prophets;
shedding light for each of their "seven congregations"/"lampstands", of invited and called ones
(Rev.1:20; Eph.4:11,12; 1:23;  1Cor. 12:7; Rom.12:5).

In the time of the end, the invited called ones are conquered by a false prophet and her Gentile Wild Beast
(Matt.24:24,25; Rev.13:7,11; Dan.8:24; Rev.19:20). The false prophet is the two horned wild beast...compare the descriptions in (Rev.19:20 and Rev.13:11,12,13,14,15,16) It "performs signs on behalf of the first beast...deluded or deceived those of the earth that had received the mark of the first beast and worshiped it's image". (Rev.19:20; 13:12,14)

Although many call the Wild Beast Organization "mother", is not the mother of those who hope to become sealed...
"Jerusalem above" is (Gal.4:26; Rev.12:1,2,5; 2:26,27).
(https://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/01/spiritual-virginity-what-is-it.html)
The fact that Satan has erected this operation of error...the LIE that the Gentile Beast is God breathed (spirit-directed) (2Thess. 2:3,4; Rev.13:15),
is our life-giving mother,
and has blasphemously replaced the true Kingdom (and true "mother" covenant),
IS the "disgusting thing standing in the Holy Place"/operation of error.

The "Holy Place" is God's Temple priesthood (1Cor. 3:16; 6:17,19,20; Eph.2:22;  1Pet. 2:5,9,10) wherein His spirit dwells.
That is the only "organization" on earth, that is directed by and houses God's spirit,
because it has been cleansed by the blood of Christ for that specific purpose
(Rev.1:5,6; 5:9,10; Rom.2:29; Eph.5:25,26,27; Rev.14:5,4; Heb.10:10,14; 13:12; 12:23,24,22; Titus 2:14; Ex.19:6;  2Chron. 23:6).
The "operation" (functioning) of a false Gentile priesthood (replacing those chosen, cleansed, and "circumcised in heart" by God -Rom.2:28,29),
is the disgusting thing in God's sanctuary "operation of error"/causing "desolation" (Eze.8:5,6; 44:6,7,8,9;  2Chron. 13:9;  2Thess. 2:4; etc.).
(see pearl-disgustingthing.blogspot.com)

That collective Gentile priesthood, (Gentile Wild Beast) has replaced the body of Christ. It has replaced Christ as head of his anointed congregation! (Dan.8:11)
It is the Anti-Christ!
Are you able to perceive this reality today....as non-anointed elders have become the shepherds/masters, of the anointed within the Beast organization...holding them captive, restraining their obedient service to God alone, and dominating them to their injury?

The Called ones captive inside the Beast, have fallen asleep (Matt.25:5; 22:8; Mark 13:36,37; Rev.16:15)...Drunk...with the wormwood wine of the Harlot! (Rev.18:3;  1Cor. 6:15; Jer.51:7)
God's people (anointed - 1Pet. 2:9,10) are captive...and "scattered among the Nations/Gentiles"
(Lev.26:33; Rev.13:10; Dan.8:11,24; 12:7; Rev.13:7; Eze.34:12; Joel 2:1,2,4; Rev.9:7).
being "trampled" by them (Rev.11:2; Luke 21:24; Rev.13:10).
Again...this is the working of the disgusting thing (Dan.11:31; 12:11; Matt.24:15;  2Chron. 23:6),
causing desolation.

Please consider, that the Organization/"abomination causing desolation" is not giving birth to God's kingdom.
Even Christ's kingdom was not sourced in Satan's world (John 18:36); for nothing clean comes from unclean (Job 14:4).
The "labor pains" which signal the birth of God's Kingdom, are not to be found in Satan's world, but rather, in the heavenly woman
(pearl-laborpains.blogspot.com)
(pearl-sign.blogspot.com)
The present collective Org. is the Man of Lawlessness. Believing in it's divine authority and power, IS the LIE (2Thess. 2:9,10,11,12). All those ascribing to the Gentile Beast, divinity, are not to receive life (Rev.13:8; 14:9,10). Their faith, minds, and deeds are directed/enslaved, by the Beast Org. (Rev.13:16); rather than by God (Deut.6:6,8).

All anointed under this power, cannot be sealed as slaves of God (Rev.14:1; 7:3).
We cannot serve two masters, anymore than Adam and Eve were permitted to eat from both "trees" (Gen.2:17; 3:22,23) (https://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/08/two-trees.html).

All those escaping the Beast, due to the grace and mercy of God,
must awaken from this Lie, and realize that the only spirit-directed organization of God,
and His true dwelling place/Temple,
is the Body of Christ,
who are now (in fulfillment of prophecy) being held captive in Satan's counterfeit kingdom
(which counterfeit is covered with blasphemous claims/names -Rev.13:1,5,6;  2Thess. 2:4).

All organized religious powers in this world, have compromised to Satan, and NOT followed the example of Christ (Matt.4:8,9; Mark 10:42,43,44,45; Rev.8:10,11; 9:1,11; John 10:10). Yet the one religion that matters to God, is the one which holds his Chosen Sons in darkness...prisoners of Satan's abyss (through the domination of Satan's agents of the abyss/locust scorpions/wild beast)
(pearl-revelation9.blogspot.com)
So you can rest assured that I am fully aware that my purpose is to fulfill my own divine assignment,
proving what MY OWN work is (Gal.6:4;  1Cor. 3:8,14; 11:28,29,31,27), to serve my brothers, feed the sheep, and never to set up any type of hierarchical structure other than that which God has already designed
(Heb.12:22,23; Eph.2:20,21,22; Rev.21:14;  1Cor. 12:18).

Our place in the body, is not determined by what time we show up, but rather,
where God has placed us within that body.
This we will discern, when the Master lets us know. This takes time and humility (Luke 14:8,9,10; Prov.25:6,7; Gal.6:3,4; Luke 14:10; Rev.11:12).
In the meantime, we "pay attention to how we listen"
(Luke 8:18; Mark 4:23,24,25; Jer.26:4,5; 25:4; Num.12:6; Rev.11:3; Matt.17:3; Mark 10:36,37,40; Zech.4:7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14;  1Cor. 3:18; 8:2).

I am here to serve you, if there is anything you need regarding spiritual food (Matt.25:35,40).
I hope you continue to read about many things I have been eyewitness to through vision.
If you require anything, there is a contact form on my main page, or you can write my email address.

I am interested in reading your articles, as soon as you can send me a link to where I can read them,
other than opening an attachment. I hope you understand. I have lost many computers due to viruses originated in attachments sent to me by WT moles.
Thank you for contacting me, and I look forward to drawing closer to you.
I suggest what the scriptures do...
not to judge anyone or anything, unless it is by means of the scriptures, and a well-developed perception that has been trained by means of them (1Cor. 4:5; Heb.4:12,13;  2Tim. 3:16; Heb.5:14).
You will be able to distinguish the true from the false prophets, by means of Christ's direction.
(pearl-finetrees.blogspot.com)
The true will interpret prophecy by means of God's Word alone (Gen.40:8;  2Pet. 1:20,21; John 16:13; Luke 11:28; Rev.1:3), not by means of Satan's worldly counterfeits and their own physical deductions based upon them (1John 5:19;  1Cor. 2:13,14).
(pearl-anillustration.blogspot.com)
Jesus told us plainly, that Revelation is written totally in symbolic language, which is the only way he taught [Matt.13:34,35,10,11,12,13; Rev.1:1 -(see Greek "esEmanen")]
Those invited who do not see Revelation's identities clearly, run the risk of fulfilling the negative ones.
Those who mistakenly see the Man of lawlessness as the Governing Body (rather than the Gentile Eldership Army), run the risk of returning to the Org. after the GB is removed...thinking that the vilified GB is the totality of the present corruption. Those who return to support the Org. and help fill the void left by the previous leaders, will join the "ten kings" that rule one hour with the Beast (Rev.17:12) (after the GB/last harlot, is removed -Rev.17:16,17).
The ten kings (ten toes) receive the same judgment as the Iron Beast, to which they will belong (Rev.19:19,20; Dan.2:41,42,44).
Those who realize that the GB is the last Harlot who rides the Beast-like Org., realize that the Org. is still the blasphemous beast, blood-guilty for slaying the faithful (Rev.11:7; 13:15; 6:9,11), and it will still be the disgusting counterfeit, which continues to defy the authentic Kingdom and genuine Temple Priesthood chosen by God. Jesus gave clear direction not to return once we are out (Luke 17:32; Gen.19:17; Isa.52:11; Luke 21:21,22)

Operation of Error - II

This is MY response to a letter I received. 
I thought it's content would be helpful to the readers here.
- - - - - - - - - - 
Dear Xxxx,
It seems you still believe the false teaching about the identity of the "little flock" (Luke 12:32).
You said;
  "Regarding the kingdom. it was 29 ce/33 ce.
and there is little flock of both Jews and Gentiles.
There is other sheep of both Jews and Gentiles."

While it is true that the "Thousand Year" kingdom of Christ began in the first century; 
("Two Kingdoms")
("Thousand Years")
...and that there were anointed and non-anointed in the first century;
the "little flock" was the Jewish anointed, who were first to be Jesus' disciples (Matt.15:24; 10:6) and be counted as kingdom heirs (Acts 13:45,46; 10:45,47,34,35), due to their belonging to the body of Christ (Gal.3:29,26) and due to their heritage as physical descendants of Abraham. AFTERWARD, the Gentiles also could become anointed by God's spirit, and joined in that "one flock" with "one shepherd" (see scriptures above, in Acts).
The little flock was the Jewish anointed. The "other sheep, not of *this fold" (*this--physical Jews); were the Gentile anointed to come later (John 10:16; Acts 13:46).
To read more proving scriptures about this, here are three helpful links:

"Anointed Flock -- The Truth"

"Little Flock"

"What is 'Jew'? What is 'Gentile'?"


I hope you read them. They will clean the lie from your mind, and help you to remove the mark of the Beast on your mind, and replace it with the truth of God's Word...  (Deut.6:6,8; Rev.13:16)
[Rev.13:17,18  ---  https://pearl-666.blogspot.com/]

Those who are not anointed, were not those whom Jesus referred to as "other sheep".
As you will see from the scriptures in those links, the "other sheep" are physical Gentiles who become a part of the "One flock" of anointed. Once in that flock, they all become  spiritual  "Jews" / "seed of Abraham" (Matt.3:9; Gal.3:28,29; Rom.4:16; 2:28,29).

Those who are not anointed can receive salvation, by accepting the faithful anointed ambassadors of Christ 
(John 13:20; Matt.10:14;  1Cor. 4:1;  2Cor. 5:20; Col.1:20; Mal.2:7; Rev.1:6; 5:10; Zech.8:23; Rev.21:3; Micah 4:2; Rev.14:1). 
They are God's Temple 
(1Cor. 3:16; Micah 1:2; Jer.42:5; 22:29; Rev.11:3,4; Zech.4:11,14).

(Zech.8:23; Rom.2:28,29; Gal.3:29) "What is 'Jew'? What is 'Gentile'?"
 If they DO accept the priests which Christ has sent, they will receive the same reward of life 
(Matt.10:40,41,42; Mark 9:41; Gal.3:29).

But you are right, there were those in the first Century, who were not anointed, but were still disciples of Christ. 
These were commended for their care of the "Holy Ones" (1Pet. 2:9,10; Heb.6:10;  1Cor. 1:2; Matt.25:37,38,39,40).

It is likely, as you said, that those who believed in forcing the circumcision issue upon the apostle Paul's work by Holy Spirit, were not even anointed (Acts 15:5). 
It is the same today, in that we have elders who are not anointed...
yet they also force beliefs that are not correct,
upon anointed who are enabled by God's spirit to recognize those doctrines as false.
These non-anointed elders are spiritual Gentiles. They trample the anointed Temple of God to be in subjection to them 
(1Cor. 3:16; Rev.11:2; Dan.7:25; 8:10,13; 11:36;  2Thess. 2:4; Luke 21:24; Rev.13:10,7). 
They are fake priests, and are the "disgusting thing, standing in the Holy Place (Temple)" (Mark.13:14;  2Chron. 23:6). 
(pearl-disgustingthing.blogspot.com)
The governing body has given the non-anointed elders, fake authority and permission to take over the priesthood 
(Eze.44:6,7,8,9;  2Chron. 13:9). 
(Eze.44:8 was translated wrong in the old N.W.T., ...Check the Hebrew interlinear, and any other Bible. This has recently been corrected by the WT, to agree with other translations.)
(https://biblehub.com/ezekiel/44-8.htm).
Because the governing body has given them this fake power and fake "spirit directed" authority (Rev.13:15,8);
the image of the Organization is given the worship due Christ and the attentive consideration due his genuine Body of priests (1Cor. 6:2; Rom.14:4; 8:33).
Any who do not accept the fake authority which the false prophet gives the Gentile Wild Beast, and the image of spirit in it,
are thrown out, and killed (Rev.13:15,8,7; John 16:2; Mark 8:35; 13:13; Rev.6:9,10,11; 11:7,8).
This slavery to the Beast, is Idolatry (Rom.6:16; Gal.1:10). The Organization made of non-anointed elders and overseers,
is NOT the Body of Christ. It is not "spirit-directed" (John 20:21,22) (Rev.13:15). The governing body which teaches this lie, is the false prophet (Rev.19:20).
If you need more information about this, here:

"The Mark of Slavery"

You are also right about the "Great Crowd"...that they are anointed ones...they are the last of the anointed (The remnant/"remaining ones"/"rest" -Rev.12:17; 20:5). Their number are singled out, because they are the Elect from the period of the Great Tribulation (Rev.7:14), the result of Satan's release from the abyss (Rev.20:7,8; 16:14; 17:14) 
(Posts about the symbolic "Thousand Years").
We can see that they are also priests, because they minister in the Temple (2Chron. 23:6) "day and night" (Rev.7:15; Heb.10:11; Joel 1:13; Jer.33:20,21)
..."before God's Throne". Where is God's throne? (See Isa.66:1) 
The "Great Crowd" (Matt.5:19) serves in God's Temple; 
and we know that the Temple reality, is in Heaven 
(Heb.9:23; 8:5; Rev.15:5; 7:15; Heb.12:22,23,25). How does God, "warn us from heaven" (Heb.12:25)? First through Christ, and then through "eye witnesses" of heaven 

(Eph.2:6; Heb.12:25; 2:3; Luke 1:2;  2Pet. 1:16; Matt.16:28; 17:1,2; Rev.1:12,13,16,19; John 14:21; 16:13,14;  2Cor. 12:1,2; Num.12:6; Rev.22:6; Mal.3:1; Rev.10:7; Amos 3:7) 

(Rev.20:9; 11:5; Matt.10:20; Phil.3:20;  1Cor. 15:48). 

"Heaven" is where the Temple priests within it, serve 
(Rom.8:37; Rev.3:21; Eph.2:6; Rev.5:10; Mark 14:62; Jude 1:14; Heb.12:1; Isa.43:10,21;  1Pet. 2:9).

The "operation of error" (2Thess. 2:11,9) is the presence of a collective "lawless one"/"man of lawlessness" (2Thess. 2:3,4), who operate as Temple priests (Mark 13:14;  2Chron. 13:9; Eze.44:6,8) over God's genuine Temple priesthood (2Thess. 2:4;  1Cor. 3:16)...trampling them into submission 

(Rev.11:2; Dan.11:16 (Rev.13:4)...Dan.11:31,32,33 (Rev.13:10,7; Luke 21:24)...Dan.11:34,35,36 (2Thess. 2:4); Dan.8:10,13; Rev.13:7). 

(("Who are the 'gods'?"))
This operation is accomplished on the basis of lies/"error"/"delusion"; which comes through the false prophet/fallen star (Rev.13:11,15; 19:20; 8:10,11; 9:1,2,3,10; 12:15; 16:13,14;  1Tim. 4:1). This Gentile counterfeit priesthood, is successful for a time, in subjugating the genuine Chosen Ones (Rev.11:2; 13:5,7; Dan.12:7).

The "Great Crowd" is also said to wear white robes (Rev.7:13) (See Rev.19:7,8). If you would like more scriptures proving the identity of it's members, there are many in many posts at the Blog (you can use the search box for "Great Crowd") 
as well as these two articles:

(greatcrowd)
(Revelation: Who is the "Great Crowd") 
(Matt.5:19)

I hope you find plenty of benefit from the links I have inserted above. They contain information that can "set the captives, free" 
(Rev.13:10; Luke 4:18; John 8:32).

Love,
Pearl

Two "Mothers"

ADDITIONS
The "mothers" are covenants (Gal.4:24,26). Those covenants, are also called promises (Gal.4:28,26; Rom.9:8).
Once the promise of the covenant we have entered into (and have become that mothers "daughters" Ps.137:8; Zech.2:10) is fulfilled, we are sealed into that covenant, and join in fulfilling and becoming, the "mother" identity.

"Jerusalem above" is a mother covenant of Life. She sits upon the river of the water of life and it's agents (Rev.21:2; 22:1-2; 15:2; Ps.36:8), from which she offers waters of life (Rev.22:17), and fruit and leaves by her individual members who are trees which feed on her waters from God (Rev.22:1-3,5-6; 21:22,23). She provides the wine of spirit and truth (John15:4-8). She spreads her tent over those who come to life (Rev.21:24,2-3,6-7; Isa.54:1-3). Those sealed into her (Rev.21:27; 22:14-15), receive the crown of life (James1:12; Rev.2:10; 1Cor.9:25), and pass over, from death to life and are raised to life (John5:24; 1John3:14; Eph.2:6; Col.3:1; Rom.6:4; 2Cor.5:17)... raised to heaven where she resides (Rev.12:1; Gal.4:26; Eph.2:6; Rev.3:21; 5:10).
- - - - - - -
"Babylon the Great" is a covenant of death (Isa.28:15). She sits upon the river of the water of death and it's agents (Rev.12:15; 16:13-16; 13:1; 8:11; 9:1-3; Joel2:2; Amos7:1; Eze.2:6; 1Cor.15:56; 2Thess.2:3-4), from which she forces others (under penalty of "death") to partake of waters of death (Rev.2:20; 8:10-11; 13:11,14-15; Jer.46:8), ashes (Isa.44:20), and the wine of Satan's vine (Deut.32:32-33; Jer.25:30,29; Rev.14:19; 18:3; Nahum3:16) ("Jezebel"). She spreads her tent over those who are under the power of death/abyss (Rev.17:1,15,18; Prov.5:5; 7:27; Rev.9:1). Those sealed into her (1John3:15; Rev.17:6; Isa.1:21; Mark3:29; Rev.13:6,15; 2Pet.2:12; Jude1:10) receive the aftermath of moth, rust, and thieves (Matt.6:19; Isa.66:24; 51:8,6; 34:4; Rev.6:14; 3:17-18) (Rev.17:1,16-17; Isa.47:10-11) and pass on to eternal condemnation and death (Isa.14:11-15; Rev.2:23; 20:10,14-15) 
where their mother resides (Prov.7:27; Rev.17:5; Eze.7:9,3).

    Matt.13:30; Mal.3:18; 4:1-2

I remember when I realized with astonishment, that the Organization has always belonged to Satan. It ascended out of the abyss (Rev.11:7; 17:8)... also emerged from the sea of Gentiles (Rev.13:1; Isa.57:20) at Satan's conjuring, bidding, and backing (Rev.12:17; 13:1,4) as his machination/operation of error (2Thess.2:9-12), since his release from the abyss (Rev.20:7; 16:13-16; 17:14; 1Tim.4:1). In contrast, God's Holy City descends from heaven (Rev.21:2)
At it's birth, Satans kingdom has "seven heads", which are it's succession of leaders (Rev.17:7,9-10)... fallen unfaithful anointed ones/false prophets (2Pet.3:17; Rev.2:5; Isa.14:12; Rev.8:10-11; 9:1 who have failed the test of Matt.4:9 (Dan.11:38; Rev.13:4; Eze.16:13-15,16-17; Rev.13:14; 19:20). The counterpart of those unfaithful "seven", are the seven stars/angels/prophets, in Jesus' right hand (Rev.1:20; 8:2) who are the seven horns/kings of Christ (Rev.5:6), who are given insight/eyes, into God's sacred secrets (Rev.5:6; Matt.23:34; John13:20; Matt.10:41; Rev.22:6; 19:10; Amos 3:7) (Prov.9:1; Rev.3:12)
["horns" are kings (Rev.17:12; Dan.7:24)].

During the Great Test in the "wilderness" (Matt.4:1), the faithful are depicted as delivered from Satan's face (Rev.12:6,14). The unfaithful, as enthroned upon a "Wild Beast" (Rev.17:3). All the members of the GB (along with their mother covenant), sit upon a fortress of Gentiles... "an abomination causing desolation" to God's chosen ones.
Just as Rev.17:8 reads... those who worship the Beast's Image/Idol (Rev.13:8) will be "astonished" when they recognize the true identity of the Beast that persecutes Christ's remnant of brothers.
Rather than being "God's spirit-directed Organization"; it is Satan's "operation of error"/"abomination of desolation"/"disgusting thing standing in a holy place"/"Great Tribulation"-"trampling", to Christ's remnant of Chosen priests and "living stones" of God's genuine Temple.

Great Crowd serves "In the Temple"

UPDATE TO: "Operation of Error"
as follows:
(Rev.7:15)
"You are also right about the "Great Crowd"...that they are anointed ones...they are the last of the anointed (The remnant/"remaining ones"/"rest" -Rev.12:17; 20:5). Their number are singled out, because they are the Elect from the period of the Great Tribulation (Rev.7:14), the result of Satan's release from the abyss (Rev.20:7,8; 16:14; 17:14). 
   (Posts about the symbolic "Thousand Years")
We can see that they are also priests, because they minister in the Temple (2Chron.23:6) "day and night" (Rev.7:15; Heb.10:11; Joel1:13; Jer.33:20,21)
..."before God's Throne". Where is God's throne? (See Isa.66:1) 
The "Great Crowd" (Matt.5:19) serves in God's Temple; 
and we know that the Temple reality, is in Heaven 
(Heb.9:23; 8:5; Rev.15:5; 7:15; Heb.12:22,23,25). How does God, "warn us from heaven" (Heb.12:25)? First through Christ, and then through "eye witnesses" of heaven (Heb.12:25; 2:3; Luke1:2; 2Pet.1:16; Matt.16:28; 17:1,2; Rev.1:12,13,16,19; John14:21; 16:13,14; 2Cor.12:1,2; Num.12:6; Rev.22:6; Mal.3:1; 2:7; Rev.10:7; Amos3:7) (Rev.20:9; 11:5; Matt.10:20; Phil.3:20; 1Cor.15:48). 
"Heaven" is where the Temple priests within it, serve 
(Eph.2:6; Rev.5:10; Mark14:62; Jude1:14; Heb.12:1; Isa.43:10,21; 1Pet.2:9).

The "operation of error" (2Thess.2:11,9) is the presence of a collective "lawless one"/"man of lawlessness" (2Thess2:3,4), who operate as Temple priests (Mark13:14; 2Chron.13:9; Eze.44:6,8) over God's genuine Temple priesthood (2Thess.2:4; 1Cor.3:16)...trampling them into submission (Rev.11:2; Dan.11:16 (Rev.13:4)...Dan.11:31,32,33 (Rev.13:10,7; Luke 21:24)...Dan.11:34,35,36 (2Thess.2:4); Dan.8:10,13; Rev.13:7). ("Who are the 'gods'?") 
This operation is accomplished on the basis of lies/"error"/"delusion"; which comes through the false prophet/fallen star (Rev.13:11,15; 19:20; 8:10,11; 9:1,2,3,10; 12:15; 16:13,14; 1Tim.4:1). This Gentile counterfeit priesthood ("disgusting thing"), is successful for a time, in subjugating ("trampling") the genuine Temple/Chosen Ones ("holy place" -1Cor.3:16; Deut.14:2) (Rev.11:2; 13:5,7; Dan.12:7).

Where are the Wild Beasts?

Some readers ask why my writings are focused on "Jehovah's Witnesses" as relevant to prophecy. They assume, that I am pointing to the members of the "Watchtower" as the fulfillment and manifestation of Revelation's prophetic scenario.

By using a brief illustration, I hope to clarify my identification of God's people today, and why readers might conclude that I am referring to "Jehovah's Witnesses" within my writing and comments.

Please imagine that there is a treasure of gold coins inside a small wooden chest.

Someone points to the chest and says, "There is the treasure".

Without elaboration of detail, we may assume that the wooden chest, is the treasure being referred to.

In the same way,

"Jehovah's Witnesses" are not the identity that I am referring to.

Yet within "JW's", are genuine anointed ones. 

They too, are under the Governing Body (wicked steward/Harlot)...

they too are dominated by local Congregational "elders". 

They too, have been mislead (1Tim. 4:1; Rev.16:13-16; 20:7-8).

Satan has hidden a clear interpretation of Revelation's identities, by camouflaging God's people, in among a mislead throng of spiritual Gentiles (earth-swallows) (Jew/Gentile).

God's genuine people are clarified, at 1Pet. 2:5,9-10 and Isa.43:1,10,12,21;  1Pet. 2:9.

(Gods-people) 

Satan's release from the abyss has freed him to summon the Wild Beast "from the sea"/Gentiles (Rev.13:1,4,7-8).

As you can see from Rev.13:7, it is able to overcome God's genuine people, just as Daniel and the gospel writers also prophesied.

That captivity (Col.2:8; Rev.13:10) and threat of death (Rev.13:10,15; 12:10-11; 11:7; 6:9-11; Mark 8:35) reaches all God's people, through it's three agents (Rev.16:13; 17:14). 

We know those three, as 

  Satan, 

  the "Watchtower" organization, 

  and it's governing body.

Backed by Satan's realm and power of deception and death (the abyss -Rev.9:11; Isa.33:1) and symbolically, given it's "key" (Rev.9:1; 8:10-11) to open demonic deception, lies, signs and portents;

the false prophet "breathes" spirit into it's Beast, giving it a false veneer of divine inspiration (Rev.13:15; 19:20)... which enables it to "kill" under the guise of being God's instrument to judge (John 20:22-23; Matt.16:19).

No part of God's "inhabited homeland"...

       (His "field under cultivation" (1Cor. 3:9)/His people) 

       (Translated as "earth" from the Greek: "oikou": inhabited plot of ground/homeland -John 14:23
       --"make our home with them"/"inhabit them"  Luke 8:15; Eph.2:22)

...will escape this great test/Great Tribulation. **(Grt-Trib-why?)

If you read the previous link**, you will be able to consider the source of the Great Tribulation, according to scripture.

It is by means of the agents of the abyss/Hades (Rev.9:3,10; 11:7)-- summoned forth by "wormwood"...     (LINK(tails/stingers/scorpions)) ---- (LINK(Sheol/Hades)) 

...that this great test of deception, reaches God's people and takes them captive (Rev.13:7,10; Luke 21:24).

Jesus said that this tribulation, would come in on "all the inhabited earth" (Luke 21:22,32,35-36), just as the "Man of lawlessness" (2Thess. 2:4; Rev.13:18) comes in upon all of God's Temple (1Cor. 3:16;  1Pet. 2:5,9). Every "stone" (1Pet. 2:5) will be thrown down and trampled (Luke 21:6; Rev.11:2; Dan.11:36,31) by Satan's alliance of Iron and Clay. 

All of God's remnant of people ("the remaining ones of the woman's seed" -Rev.12:17) would be made subject, under "the abomination of desolation"/"operation of error". None of these would escape dominance by Satan's agents (Rev.13:1,11,7).

(IRON: Gentile Wild Beast "from the 'sea' ", and
CLAY: adulterous harlot/false prophet/wicked steward "from the 'earth' " -Rev.13:11).
(LINK)

Since none of God's people escape this final test (Amos 9:9; Luke 22:31; Isa.34:4 > Phil.2:15; Dan.12:3), one must question the single location and entity, where such a deceiving power exists today, against God's chosen anointed. (Rev.13:7; Matt.24:4-5,24-25).

I can testify, that no religion other than "Jehovah's Witnesses" has been so successful in projecting an Image, as "God's spirit-directed organization",

and as a result, 

been able to captivate and subjugate genuine chosen ones... encapsulating them under a Gentile dominion.  (abom-desolation) (Op-of-Error) (Jew/Gentile)

Remembering that the false prophet is depicted as a "two-horned" "lamb" from the "earth"...    

       (inhabited/occupied homeland) (world-earth-home),

...my personal studies and spirit have made clear to me, that this leadership is sourced from within God's own priesthood...

  ...an anointed one... 

appointed by Christ to lead and spiritually feed his household of servants (Luke 12:42,35; Rev.8:10-11; 9:1; 13:11,15; 19:20).

  That leader "fell" from grace (2Pet. 3:17; Rev.9:1; 2:5), poisoned it's living waters (Heb.12:15; Deut.29:18; Rev.8:11) (fallen-star) (Locust-scorpions-Abaddon), 

and directed those of Christ's household under them, into idolatry (Rev.2:20; 13:15,8,7,10).

I don't know of any other religious entity, that has as it's leadership, genuine anointed ones,

acting as steward over other genuine anointed.

In fact, there are so many prophetic details which the "WT" organization fulfills,

  that it grows more difficult with increasing study and understanding,

  to miss the precise correlations between prophesy, and the anointed within "Jehovah's Witnesses".

   

To return to our illustration,

the identification of God's prophetic people in the time of the end,

is not synonymous with the organization and members of "Jehovah's Witnesses".

Drawing the conclusion that they are, is understandable...

  because the actual central subject of such prophecies, are within that very organization, 

are under it's dominion, and are contained captive within it's realm.

Worship Christ?

Hi Pearl,
In the third paragraph of **this article, you wrote
"...and end up worshiping them instead of the Son of God".
I suspect this was a mistype? (Matt 6:10). If not please expound.

(**This reader is referring to the following post, located at:

http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2012/10/regarding-organized-religions.html#comment-form )

Reply:

I would be happy to clarify, if I could clearly discern your question.
There are many facets of truth, even to just this one phrase.
I don't know where it is you think the "type-O" may have occurred,
nor what you think is inaccurate about it. You do not say.
If by Matt.6:10, you believe that Jesus is not to receive any worship,
but only "Jehovah" is, ...then I understand your question.

Regarding those we should worship......
Rev.5:12,13,14; Heb.1:6; Matt.28:9,17; John 9:38; 5:23
NOTE:
The Greek word for worship that is used in all the above verses is "proskuneo". Obviously, the NKJV chose to translate this word as worship. The New World Translation (NWT), however, chose to translate this word as "obeisance" (honor, respect, obedience) in all the above verses. What becomes interesting about the NWT, is that whenever the same Greek word, "proskuneo", is used in relation to the Father, the NWT translators, translated it as "worship", even though they rendered this same word differently in relation to Jesus. (This can be verified by looking in the Watchtower’s own Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures.) Is this a double standard? Is the NWT justified in translating this word 2 different ways... (as "obeisance" to Jesus, but as "worship" to the Father)? Does the "Watchtower" have divine authority to alter the Word of God (Jer.23:36;  2Pet. 3:16), in order to suit their own doctrines?
(1Tim. 6:20,21;  2Tim. 2:16; 3:13; Col.2:8;  1Tim. 4:1; Rev.16:14,13,15,16; 20:8;  2Thess. 2:9; Matt.24:24,25; Rev.19:20; 13:11,15,8,7; 11:2)
When they do this, should people continue to follow them?
(Mark 7:7,13;  1John 4:1; Rom.6:16; 1:25; Matt.15:14;  2Tim. 3:5; Eze.14:10)

Yet, while we give worship to God's installed King, we are given balance in understanding that Jesus is not equal to his Father.
This does not mean that he is not due any worship.
Our balance is clarified, at
1Cor. 15:27,28:
"For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all."

This does not infer that Jesus does not receive worship....but it does make clear that it is a relative worship in comparison to what is due our Heavenly Father.

This might be illustrated with a family.
Suppose a mother sees to it (and enforces), that all in the household obey the Father.
This does NOT mean that the mother is obeyed INSTEAD of the Father, but rather,
that the mother is obeyed, because of the Father.
If the mother is disobeyed, the Father is also.
If the Father is obeyed, the mother is also.
This is how "worship" is given, both the Father and the Son, because of the Father,
and the position and authority He Himself, has given to His Son 

(Psalm 2:8; Phil.2:9,10;
John 14:6; 5:22,23

Jesus is our Heavenly Father's representative (John 14:7,9; 12:45; Col.1:15;  1John 5:20).
Yet Christ, like God, is now physically invisible (John 16:16; John 4:24;  2Cor. 5:16). He is perceived only in spirit, by those whose spirit is in union with him. (1Cor. 6:17; 12:13; John 15:4,5; 17:21,23)

Since the anointed know these things, and God's spirit of truth has been poured out upon them (1John 2:20,27),
how can the prophecy be fulfilled which states that a "man of lawlessness" takes over the anointed "Temple" and suspends their sacred service? (2Thess. 2:4;  1Cor. 3:16; Dan.11:31; 8:10-11)

Men's natural inclination is to follow and obey what they can see (1Cor. 2:14;  1Sam. 8:19,21,6,7; Rev.13:8).
This improper worship of impressive "visible" power, was prophesied for our time (Rev.13:14;  2Thess. 2:9).
The leadership and authority given to...and taken by, the "man of lawlessness" [who rules over the Chosen ones (2Thess. 2:4;  1Cor. 3:16; Eph.2:22; Rev.13:7)],
replaces the worship and subjection which is due Christ,
as the Head of his wife/body/Congregation. [(Phil.2:10; Eph.1:22; Romans14:8,9,11 (John 5:22)]

How could this happen?
How could God's Temple of anointed (1Cor. 3:16) lose their subjection to Jesus (Col.1:18; Rev.14:4;  2Cor. 11:3; Eph.5:23;  1Cor. 6:17) (Col.2:19; John 15:4-6), and transfer that subjection over to a "disgusting thing" (man of lawlessness/wild beast) "standing"/ruling, where is does not belong" (Mark 13:14; Dan.11:31;  2Chron. 23:6; Num.3:10;  2Thess. 2:4; Mark 13:14) ?

The first step, would be to teach doctrines to the Chosen Ones ("Temple"), which diminish the headship/authority/obeisance, due Christ.
How could God's chosen priests possibly accept such an idea?
Reasonably, diminishing Jesus Christ could only be done
by his lesser comparison to His heavenly Father.
Once he is diminished by this comparison (God deserves worship, Jesus doesn't), that wicked goal begins it's accomplishment.
Can you discern the advantage such a strategy would afford someone seeking to usurp Christ?

If someone then proceeded to declare themselves "Jehovah's representative", the subconscious conclusion, is that these representatives would be equal to Christ, if not above him. (John 14:6; 10:7,1,10,9)

Now what if that usurping false representative of the heavenly Father (Rev.2:2;  2Thess. 2:2,3;  1John 4:1; Matt.24:24;  1Tim. 4:1; Rev.16:13), empowered their own representative army? (John 10:12,13; Dan.8:24; 11:31; Rev.9:1,2,3; 13:15; 19:20) (Joel 2:2; Matt.24:21-22) Then that army (of non-anointed "Gentiles") would not only have the power and false authority to replace Christ (Dan.8:11; Rev.9:7; 13:14,12,15), but it would certainly have in subjection Christ's mere ambassadors (Dan.11:15; 8:11,12,13,17; Rev.11:2).
This is exactly what has happened, hidden under cover of spiritual darkness. This is Satan's final and great machination, designed to draw away the subjection of Christ's anointed slaves, priests, and kings, to himself (2Cor. 11:3; Rev.20:10; 13:7; 16:13-16;  1Tim. 4:1; Matt.24:24,25).
The opening of the seven seals of the scroll of "Revelation", UNcovers this operation of error (2Thess. 2:8; Rev.17:14; Dan.12:4; John 16:8,12-14; Rev.10:7,11). The deception spawned by the "false prophet" (Rev.13:11; 19:20; Matt.7:15), causes the Great Tribulation/Gentile army, that sifts the final remnant (Luke 22:31; Rev.14:15-16) and concludes the harvest of wheat.

That "man of lawlessness" (Gentile army belonging to the "fallen star"/steward) did not achieve this position over those of God's anointed Temple priesthood on his own. Those who comprise this "man" were empowered by a fallen anointed identity (Rev.8:10,11; 9:1,2,3,7; 13:11,12,15; 19:20; Dan.8:11,24).
The composite "man of lawlessness" (Rom.2:13;  2Thess. 2:3) are the Gentile "armed forces" of that unfaithful steward slave (Dan.11:31; 8:11,24; Rev.13:7; 11:2) who empowered them.
That wicked slave takes the worship clearly commanded in scripture that is due Christ,
by making Christ, (...his model of dying to uphold truth (John 18:37;  1Pet. 2:21;  1John 2:6), ...and his commands)  recede and fade,
as they draw their own glory and false doctrines to the forefront (John 7:18; Luke 14:11),
empowering their own Gentile army to take over God's Temple priesthood.
(Eze.44:6,7,8,9;  2Chron. 13:9 -pearl-disgustingthing.blogspot.com)

The psychological effect of this photograph, depicts this point:

 Look at Christ's face in this WT illustration. Where does this blurring of his identity cause your eye to turn? This is an intentional and clever psychological manipulation.

That "fallen star"/Harlot group of unfaithful (Rev.1:20; 8:10,11; 9:1; Hosea 5:3,4; Jer.3:20,3), leads (and aims) the collective "man of lawlessness" against God's chosen Temple priesthood (1Pet. 2:5,9;  2Thess. 2:4; Dan.8:24,25; Rev.13:7; 11:2), so that these Gentiles trample the Temple into subjection for the Harlot/unfaithful steward. This collective Wild Beast is the "muscle" of the Harlot (Rev.17:6; Matt.24:49).
The results?
The priestly service of the Chosen remnant...their worship, service for truth, and obedience due Christ and his teachings, ...has faded into silence (Rev.8:1; Dan.12:11; Rom.1:25).
This "operation of error" will continue, until that Organizational army of Gentiles/Wild Beast/"man of lawlessness"/"Anti-Christ", finally turns against that unfaithful "harlot" above it.

But this "man of lawlessness" will also be "done away with".
How?
Not by "human hand" (Dan.8:25; Zech.4:6,7)
but by the spirit/"breath" of Christ's mouth (2Thess. 2:8; John 20:22; Isa.11:4; Ps.2:9; Jer.23:29; Rev.19:15) through his sealed ones (Rev.2:26,27; Zech.12:3; Dan.2:34; Rev.19:14; 17:14;  2Cor. 10:4; Jer.29:19; 5:14; Rev.11:5; Matt.10:20) (Rev.1:6,7; Heb.12:1). Jesus is "pierced", when his "body" is (1Cor. 12:27; Rev.1:7; 6:9; Matt.25:40; Luke 10:16;  1Thess. 4:8).
These deserve their judgment (Rev.16:5,6,7) for usurping the worship due Christ, and God's Will for His Temple of Chosen Priests (1Cor. 12:18,27; Rev.17:6).
(Acts 10:42; 17:31; Luke 22:22; John 5:22,27; Phil.2:9,10; Dan.7:14; Matt.28:18; Acts 2:33)

Great Tribulation -Two phases

A QUESTION I RECEIVED:

Something strange. I've learned that anointed Christians will be sealed on the forehead before the great tribulation. read Revelation 7:3. But one seal on the forehead means approved.
Jesus said the faithful discreet slave should be put on all that he owns, or be thrown out when he comes after the great tribulation. Matthew 24:45-51
Does that mean that the faithful discreet slave is not sealed before the great tribulation, but all other faithful anointed is sealed before the great tribulation. What do you think? 
------------------------------

MY REPLY:

What you are actually noticing, is that the Great Tribulation breaks out upon the Chosen Ones, first.
These are the first, to recognize the test before them, and the spiritual war-like condition...
       [not peace and security -(Matt.24:4,5,24,25; Micah 3:5; Jer.6:14,15; 3:3; Eze.13:10,16;  1Thess. 5:3) [Isa.5:5 (Ex.19:12; 20:18) Dan.11:16,45; Rev.11:2) peace-and-security]
...which tribulation, is their true spiritual reality. 
http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2015/06/the-greatest-tribulation-why.html
They are first to recognize the idolatrous condition of God's people, their Temple priesthood being trampled down under spiritual Gentiles....

....and the initial ones to endure the test of loyalty to God and Truth, which the new perception of their actual spiritual circumstances, (Matt.24:15), invokes their response (Rev.13:8;  2Thess.2:4,3,12) 
(Isa.48:10; Zech.13:9; Rev.8:7-12; 12:4; 9:15,18,20;  1Cor.3:13; Rev.6:17; Mal.3:2-3; Luke 18:26-27) 
and choice, 
to either loyally repent, or to continue inside the climate of  idolatry toward the image of a so-called, spirit-inspired alliance (Rev.13:15; 19:20).

It is through that test, (and how each Chosen One responds to it), that the unsealed chosen ones are either sealed as slaves of God, Christ, and their mother covenant, New Jerusalem (Rev.14:1; 22:4; 3:12; Gal.4:26,24) (pearl-thewoman.blogspot.com).

[and are given their white robe (Rev.3:5; 6:11; 7:9,13,14; 22:14; 19:8,14; 15:6)].

...Or, they are branded as slaves of other Masters.
You may wish at this point, to see what it means to be sealed on the forehead (Deut.11:18; Rev.13:16).
(http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/05/mark-of-beast.html)
Jesus illustrated the choice between two Masters (Joel 3:14),
in the parable of the 10 virgins. Five chose to source their lamplight in the receptacle they had from the beginning (Gal.3:3; Rev.3:3)...
and five chose to "buy from those who sell" (Matt.25:10; Rev.13:17;  2Cor.2:17; Isa.55:1-2).
(http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2012/12/buying-and-selling.html)
"Buying", requires you to give something up. 
If you engage in spiritual commerce not sourced with Christ (Rev.3:18), your forehead is not marked as a loyal slave of God, but a slave to the one whose doctrines guide and direct you (Gal.1:10; Rom.6:16). 
(pearl-obeymen.blogspot.com)

Those other Masters chosen by the foolish virgins, include the "mother" Covenant of Death (Rev.17:5; Eze.16:2,44,45; Isa.28:15),
(Gal.4:26,24)
her harlot daughters (Eze.16:44; Rev.17:5; Isa.1:21),

and the Gentile Wild Beast with which, the harlot forms a ruling alliance (Rev.13:16,17,18; 16:13) 

(pearl-666.blogspot.com)

The first century Jews in covenant with God, were given the opportunity first, to be of the anointed body of Christ (John 1:11,12,13; Rom.11:28; Acts 13:46). At the end of the Covenant with physical Israel, the unfaithful physical Jews had formed an alliance with physical Gentiles (John 18:35; 19:11,15). They paid for their unfaithfulness, by having their ally turn on them.

  But at the end of the New Covenant, it pertains to spiritual Gentiles forming an adulterous alliance with spiritual Jews, causing the Great Tribulation to the faithful. 

https://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/09/trample-how-does-it-happen.html

That harlot will also be turned on, by her paramours (Rev.17:16).

       [Spiritual Jews are the anointed 

       (Zech.8:23; John 4:22; Rom.2:28,29; Isa.42:6)  

       (Gen.22:18; Gal.3:29; Rev.22:2; Matt.7:20).

http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/01/what-is-jew-what-is-gentile-answers-to.html ]

Only after all of these Called Ones are sealed by their master of choice, does the Great Tribulation (caused by the adulterous  alliance with the Gentile Beast) break out on the "trees, earth, and earth/land" (Rev.9:4; 7:3; 12:9,12; 20:8) (Isa.56:8; John 10:16). 

  So when you say, "I've learned that anointed Christians will be sealed on the forehead before the great tribulation"....

  this is both true and false. 

It is false, in that they are sealed while they themselves are being "tribulated"/sifted/trampled by Gentiles.

It is true, in that these are sealed before the sifting tribulation breaks out upon the "rest" (earth/land/sea/trees/plant/green things).

  It should also be recognized, that this "breaking out" of "harm", is, the Great Tribulation. 
The "144000" are sealed before the outbreak of the Great Tribulation". 
Those "unsealed" who DO go through the Great Tribulation ("great crowd"), are sealed after/during, the "breaking out" of that "harm" (abomination causing desolation/Great Tribulation). 
Yet that harm does not only break out on the unsealed. 
It also breaks out on the "rest"/"earth/land/sea/trees/plant/green things" after the harvest of the anointed wheat is done. The "rest" face the secondary part of that great sifting to choose a master.
(Rev.14:15,16,17,18)

During that time, these secondary elements will also be branded by their masters....sealed as to whose laws they obey (Rom.6:16) and submit their faith/thinking, and actions/power, to (Rev.13:16,7; Gal.1:10;  1Cor.7:23). The great sifting/separating/tribulation, brings the two harvests to a finish.

The first harvest is of the Called and anointed "wheat"/"earth"(--God's "inhabited homeland" John 14:23) (Rev.14:14-16). That is done by Christ, who brings his "wheat" into his storehouse (Matt.13:38; 3:12). He will base that judgment according to what these "branches" have produced as "fruit"/teachings... whether fine, or rotten. The kind of fruit each produces, will depend upon which root they were grafted into (John 15:5,6; Jer.2:21; Deut.32:32,33; Rev.14:18,19).

The second harvest, is of the actual fruit of each vine (teachings and those who took them in) that was produced by these Chosen branches/prophets. If they have taken in fine fruit sourced in Christ through his faithful branches, then they have taken into their hearts, sayings of life. They will be saved from death and harvested as such. 

https://pearl-finetrees.blogspot.com

If they have fed from Satan's vine and his branches of "fallen stars" (Ps.140:3; Rev.13:11; Deut.32:33; Rev.16:13-16;  1Tim.4:1)(Jer.23:14,15; Rev.8:10,11; 9:1), partaking of that rotten fruit/wormwood... they will suffer the consequences due to those who love lies (2Thess. 2:9-12).   

http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/search?q=fallen+star+wormwood

If you think about these two separate phases (Rev.7:3)
   (breaking out on the unsealed, and then later, on the "rest"), 
you will see why this is just and reasonable.

The tribulation segregates those willing to die for truth (Mark 8:35; 13:13; John 16:2), from those who love the lie, become idolaters (Rev.13:8), and prefer Satanic deception (2Thess.2:9-12).

How can the other elements make a choice for truth, if it is not available?

The faithful anointed must be first to awaken and choose to live (and die) for truth,
proven by the testimony they give in the face of death (Rev.12:11,7; 20:4; 6:9;  2Cor.10:3,4,5; Eph.6:12; Rev.11:3; Dan.12:3-4; Rev.20:12).
(pearl-newscrolls.blogspot.com)

That testimony of Truth must first be present and available, by which the "rest" will thereafter, be sealed as either accepting, or rejecting.
(John 13:20; Matt.10:40,41; 25:40,46)

Do you see that those Chosen must decide their side of this battle first?

They do this by their acceptance or rejection of Satan's end-time deception
...The "operation of error", "the lie"...which asserts that the Gentiles should be ruling over God's anointed Temple and trampling them underfoot,
thereby preventing the "remaining ones" of the woman's seed, from becoming sealed as slaves of God and Christ (Rev.3:2; Dan.8:11-12,13,24; Rev.13:7; Dan.11:31). This counterfeit kingdom of the False Prophet and Gentile Idol...
(and their lies -Rev.16:13; 13:11,14;  2Thess.2:4,9,11;  2Tim.3:13)
...acts as a restraint against the arrival of the genuine Kingdom of God, and restrains the necessary sealing of God's chosen rulers as slaves of God and His truth (Deut.11:18; Heb.10:16). 
Those who choose faithfulness, must not remain slaves to spiritual Gentiles who teach doctrine from the wicked steward (or Idolize their false "Image", as being directed by God's spirit -Rev.13:15-16; Isa.44:20) (http://4womaninthewilderness.blogspot.com/2013/05/mark-of-beast.html) (http://pearl-666.blogspot.com/).
(pearl-restraint.blogspot.com) (What is "Jew" and "Gentile"?)
(Rev.16:13,14,15,16,17;  1Tim.4:1;  2Thess.2:9,11,12; Mark 13:14; Rev.9:7,3; 3:9; 13:4,5,7,8,14,18;  2Thess.2:4; Rev.11:2; Matt.5:13;  2Cor.11:3)
(pearl-disgustingthing.blogspot.com)
(search-results=operation+of+error)

Once the Chosen take their own stand, the sealing of the Chosen Kings (and the harvest of the wheat), is done. The faithful remnant  "come to life" at this time (Rev.20:4,5,6,7,8; John 5:24; 6:47,58; 11:26).
Then the Battle ensues between these messengers of death / lies, and the (messengers of life) /(truth). Both sides present their testimony. Due to exposure to both the truth and the lie; the next phase of the tribulation/sifting/sorting/choosing, occurs for the "rest". In this "valley of decision", it will be determined, who receives life or destruction (Rev.20:5; 8:13; 11:14; 12:12; 11:5; 9:12,18,20,21).

                 [NOTE: While being "killed" is naturally viewed as a bad punishment to us;
                               this is actually the symbolic means of salvation within Revelation
                               (Mark 8:35; Rev.9:18; 11:7; 6:9,11; 12:11; Zech.13:9,8) 
It happens to those who do not succumb to the overwhelming climate of idolatry (Rev.13:15,8; 20:4; 11:7)]

When Christ's sealed slaves are working faithfully, (shining their lamps of truth fueled by Holy Spirit);

they are appointed over the care of all Christ's "sheep" during the tribulation. 

They are assigned a greater work, with greater supplies (the marriage feast), and with a greater responsibility. Unfortunately, the majority of God's people, reject these final prophets. 

(Rev.11:3,7,8,10; John 16:2; Matt.5:11-12; Mark 13:13)

All are sealed during their own battle of the Great Tribulation, which will test every heart dedicated to God, as to it's love of truth or lies (Luke 21:35; Rev.2:4; Jer.5:31; Eze.13:19,22; Isa.28:15;  2Thess.2:9,10,11,12,13,15; Rev.13:3) (Eze.13:4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12)

...first to the as yet unsealed Chosen Ones,

and then on to the "rest" (symbolized by earth/land/trees/green things/sea, previous to gaining life) (Rev.7:3; 9:4; 20:5) 

(coming-to-life).

Try to remember that the spiritual, symbolic timing within Revelation, is not according to the literal timing that we as physical beings are familiar with.
