It's going to be Biblical

Is there a culling event at the end times prior to the tribulation and second coming? I have always read these passages as pertaining to the time when Christ returns to the earth when we rule and reign with him during the 1000 year millennial period.

Observing the current events thru scripture is it possible that this current event is biblical?

Matthew 13:41-43 The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness. 42 And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.

In Revelation 2 is another passage that speaks of this:

·        2:20 But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads My servants to be sexually immoral and to eat food sacrificed to idols. 21 Even though I have given her time to repent of her immorality, she is unwilling. 22 Behold, I will cast her onto a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her will suffer great tribulation unless they repent of her deeds. 23 Then I will strike her children dead, and all the churches will know that I am the One who searches minds and hearts, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds. 24 But I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned the so-called deep things of Satan: I will place no further burden upon you. 25 Nevertheless, hold fast to what you have until I come. 26 And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations. 27He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery —just as I have received authority from My Father.

Note: does this passage indicate that after “a time to repent” there is an event that casts some into a bed of sickness and gives another opportunity to repent and then to continue in His work before He comes?

I think so.

Lord we repent of her immorality. Let us shine like the sun.
