Will We See What’s Happening On Earth?

Q

Is there Scripture that indicates that after the Rapture the Church will see the happenings on earth (when the 70th week begins) ?
And do you believe the church (while in heaven) may be privy to family/friends that will be saved during this horrible time.

A

The Bible does not come right out and say whether we’ll be able to observe activities on Earth after the rapture. However, it does imply that we’ll be able to observe the arrival of tribulation martyrs in Heaven (Rev. 7:9-17).

Some believe Psalm 45 is a vision of the Messiah’s wedding to the Church. If so verses 9-11 might give us a clue.

Daughters of kings are among your honored women; at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir.

Listen, O daughter, consider and give ear: Forget your people and your father’s house. The king is enthralled by your beauty; honor him, for he is your Lord.

This seems to be saying our focus will be more on our new life than the one we’ve left behind.
