15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? ( Rev. 6:15-17).
No atheists in the Tribulation. I would affirm that is the case from the onset as we read in Revelation 5:13
"And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever."
This follows the ascension in Revelation 4 to heaven of John showing what must happen immediately after the mention of the churches in chapter 3 and 4; and the 24 elders seem to represent us as kings and priests mentioned elsewhere
Revelation 5:9-10 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
The theme here is that whatever side you are on spiritually determines the state of existence. I am certain we all know intrinsically where we are although many try to deny it now it will soon be clear.
