The Earth will be harvested at the end of the age. The Church will be raptured at the same time as the dead in Christ are raised (the first resurrection). Angels will separate the Wheat from the Tares. Those who are left behind (The Nations) will be separated into the Sheep and the Goats. This is the Battle of Armageddon on the Day of the Lord wheh Christ returns with an army of redeemed believers to strike down the Beast and the False prophet and his armies baring the Mark of the Beast. The Nations will be separated into the Sheep and the Goats according to how they treated God’s people (“these little ones of mine”). The Goats will be those who accepted the Mark of the Beast. The Sheep nations will become the Nations in the Millennium and in Eternity if their names are in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
