The Seven-Year Tribulation is a time when God will discipline Israel and judge unbelievers. Scripture confirms two truths: God is in control, and His Word is true.
Key Prophetic Events
- Daniel 9:24-27 and Matthew 24:15, 21-22 describe the Tribulation, divided into two halves. The "abomination of desolation" marks the start of the Great Tribulation.
- Revelation 5 reveals Jesus as the only one worthy to bring judgment, which unfolds through the Seals, Trumpets, and Bowls.
Judgments
- Seals (Revelation 6): Antichrist's rise, global war, famine, mass death, and natural disasters.
- Trumpets (Revelation 8-9): Earth's destruction, poisoned waters, demonic torment, and immense loss of life.
- Bowls (Revelation 16): Painful sores, all water turning to blood, scorching heat, darkness, and the final earthquake.
Response: Remember God is sovereign. Live holy, expectant lives, and urgently share Jesus' love, knowing these events will happen.
