In this continuing study I take a look at the Rapture Doctrine. Is this a Pre-Trib, as taught in most mainstream Churches are do Christians go through the Tribulation Period? I compare Thessalonians to Matthew 24 along with Revelation. I venture into Paul’s writings to explore what he has to say, along with what Yahweh says in Ezekiel. I also ask the listeners to grab a pencil and paper as we create charts for comparison as we get deeper into this study.
In this Part 41 I continue our study in this Matthew 24 however before I go to verse 29 we need to cover the Wrath of Satan. We will be studying 10 passages of scripture. We will see 5 common elements start popping up. We will see that there will be a war in heaven involving Michael, the archangel. We will see the Antichrist blaspheme Yahweh of Heaven and commit the Abomination of Desolation sparking a 3 ½ year period of time during which saints are killed.
Many people have been taught that the Tribulation lasts for 7 years. some say it's 3 1/2 years. In this study we will show that it is, in fact, 3 1/2 years - the last 3 1/2 years of the "Final 7 Years." These Final 7 years are also called "Daniel's 70th Week." A 'week' here refers to a 'week of years."
How do we know this?
An event called the Abomination of Desolation, will happen at the mid-point of Daniel's 70th week (Daniel 9:27). The Abomination of Desolation will trigger a period of time called the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:15-21)
Great Tribulation = Wrath of Satan
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
10 verses: Daniel 7:25; Rev. 13:5-7, 12:6, 12:7-12; 12:13-17; Matthew 24:15-21; Daniel 12:1-7; Rev. 10:5-7; 6:9-11; 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4; Rev. 11:3-13
The 5 common Elements: War in Heaven; Great Words; Abomination of Desolation; Three and One Half Years; Saints Killed
Don’t end up like those in Hosea 4:6 ‘My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God (Elohim), I will also forget thy children.’
But, be like those in 2Timothy 2:15 ‘Study to shew thyself approved unto God (Yahweh), a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.’
