The last half of the tribulation is detailed in Revelation chapters 13, 14, 15, 16. The last half of the tribulation begins with the "False prophet" forcing the world to worship the Antichrist by means of a "Mark" 666, so people cannot buy or sell unless they pledge allegiance and worship this individual (Revelation 13). People must choose to live by receiving the "Mark" or be killed if they reject it. God helps people make the choice by sending 3 angels to warn those on the earth to reject the mark, warning them of God's coming wrath in the "Lake of Fire"and judgment on the kingdom of the Beast, (Antichrist). People are then killed for their choice. (Revelation 14) The people who are killed for choosing Christ, are found as victors in Heaven (Revelation 15) before the throne of God. Those rejected the "Mark" (666), received Christ and were killed, but they are in Heaven. God now calls 7-angels forward to receive the bowls of wrath, which will be poured out on the earth. This is all leading to the "Second Coming' when Jesus will return in Glory and Power to judge the earth. In Revelation 16, the 7 Angels pour out God wrath on the earth. Those who received the Mark now have "Puss" oousig sores (1st angel). The Sea is turned into blood (2nd Angel) the Rivers are turned into blood (3rd Angel). The sun scorches those who dwell on the earth (4th Angel). Darkness falls on the capital city of the Beast (5th Angel). Armies of the East are called to Jerusalem to the battle of Armageddon (6th Angel). As the armies advance against Israel and Jerusalem, a great earthquake shakes the cities of the earth, God rains down stones are the armies, while Christ is preparing to return and judge the earth (7th Angel).
