INDUCTIVE BIBLE TOPIC STUDY

END TIMES EVENTS - DAY OF THE LORD

By Dennis Schmidt 2/2007

RETURN TO THE: BIBLE PAPER HOME PAGE.

This paper discusses the End Time Events, a time of tribulation for the earth where over one half of the earth's population dies.  This is a seven year period of time, at the end of days.  Some major events are: Several Raptures, Antichrist rise, Wars, All Israel saved, Jesus on His earth throne for 1,000 years, Judgments, Resurrections, and New earth/heaven.  All scriptures are from the King James Bible.

INDUCTIVE COMMENTS: Scriptures shows that God has a plan for  every age including later times, end days, for the earth & heaven.

THEME:  The second coming of the Lord, with His angels and saints, will occur at the end of the seven year End Times. Jesus will win the Armageddon war; send the Anti-Christ and his False Prophet into the Lake of Fire. Jesus will put Satan in prison for 1,000 years. Finally, Jesus will remove the Unbelievers from the earth. The Believers shall form the group of people in the millennium which Jesus and the Overcomers shall rule with a rod of iron. Some of their offspring will rebel.

Zechariah 14:4 "And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south." Jesus 2nd coming return will be to Jerusalem.

Luke 21:36 "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." Escape tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 "And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come." Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, {10} Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him." Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

PURPOSE: 

This paper and most other papers on the End Times must make assumptions in writing the papers. This paper start with the requirement that most of the End Times scriptures must be discussed & shown in the teaching. Some of these scriptures could be used for several End Times Events. Which event the scriptures are used for is not always clear. Many of the End Time Event scriptures do not occur in chronological order. Also, Revelation is the key book to show God's future End Times Events including several raptures in the End Times: Overcomers (Man Child), Church, 144,000, Tribulation-Saints, 2 Witnesses, Jesus 2nd coming unbelievers, & final war raptures.

Revelation 1:19 "Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;" The seven churches extend to seven time periods and in each time period the seven churches exist even to our present day. Revelation 2 & 3 shows the Overcomers.

Revelaton 4:1 "After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter." This is a type of rapture. The Man Child (Revelation chapter 12) or Overcomers (Revelation Chapters 2-3) are pre-tribulation-raptured.

KEY VERSE:

Revelation 12:5 "And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne." Jesus and Overcomers' fulfill this.

Revelation 2:25-27 "But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. {26} And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: {27} And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father."Man Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who come back to rule.

Revelation 3:21 "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne." The Overcomers' will rule with Jesus.

Revelation 12:11 "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death." Their life is centered on Jesus.

WHO:  God mainly by Bible authors Isaiah, Daniel, Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul

TO WHOM:  Elected Christians, new end times believers, and believing Jews.

WHAT:  God's plan is that mankind can not save themselves but must trust in God's salvation.                                                                                                           

Psalms 4:3 "But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him." Set apart, sanctify, godly men, Overcomers, who live a godly life.

Isaiah 57:1 "The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come." Take away men.

Luke 21:36 "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." Escape tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 "And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come." Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, {10} Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him." Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

2 Peter 2:9 "The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:" Deliver Overcomers before tribulation.

Revelation 3:10 "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." God will keep Overcomers from temptation because they live in the deeper things of God.

WHY:   What starts the End Times Events? The rapture of the Overcomers: the "He" is taken out.

2 Thessalonians 1:10-12, 2:1 "When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. {11} Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: {12} That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. {2:1} Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ , and by our gathering together unto him,"

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 "And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. {7} For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. {8} And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: {9} Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders," He is the Overcomers who when they are raptured will allow the Antichrist to come.

This is a clear Pre-Tribulation-Rapture scripture of the He (group) to be taken out of the way.

WAY:  God's judgment during the last seven years end times tribulation period while still showing mercy on those who repent.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 "Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: {6} Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; {7} And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, {8} In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: {9} Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; {10} When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. {11} Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of <this> calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of <his> goodness, and the work of faith with power: {12} That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ." God raptures the weak Church who is punished/suffering with 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God

Romans 1:18 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;" Jesus, truth, is only one righteous

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 "And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. {7} For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. {8} And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: {9} Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders," He is the Overcomers who when they are raptured will allow the Antichrist to come.

Revelation 16:1 "And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth." Tribulation is God's wrath.

WHEREAS:  These scriptures show the imminent return of the Lord. Jesus could return any time after His rapture. We are to be always ready & love His appearing which will be soon. This could occur for us by death or rapture. No future event was needed but Israel which God established in a day.

Isaiah 66:8 "Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children." Israel became a nation again after 2,500 years in a 1 day vote at the United Nations.

Matthew 25:10 "And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut." See entire parable of Ten Virgins: Matthew 25:1-13 shows need to be prepared for Jesus return. John 14:3 Jesus prepares mansion.

Mark 13:32-33 "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. {33} Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is."The Church is to watch & pray for the soon return of Jesus for His 2nd coming.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 "But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. {2} For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. {3} For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. {4} But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief." Overcomers will be prepared for the day.

2 Peter 3:3-4 "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, {4} And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation." Until Jesus comes.

Revelation 3:3 "Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee." Warning in church age to be prepared.

WHERE:  In Israel and throughout the earth

WHEN: In the end days, last or later times, Day of the Lord, Jacob troubles, and tribulation period

Matthew 24:32-34 "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: {33} So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. {34} Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled."Israel is fig tree that is sign of soon coming of End Times.

Matthew 24:7-8, 14 "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. {8} All these are the beginning of sorrows. {14} And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." Beginning of sorrows events take place, including gospel preached to all the world, before the End Times Events start.

Matthew 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:" This 1st tribulation is in 1st three & half years of the End Times Events.

Matthew 24:15 "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)" This event is in the middle of 7 years End Times & starts the second 3 & 1/2 years Great Tribulation period.

Matthew 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." Last 3 & 1/2 years is the Great Tribulation worst ever.

WHILE: People live their lives as if nothing is going to change.

The rest of the Church is raptured (not Overcomers who have already been raptured). The Genesis 37:9 Jacob(sun)/Rachel(moon)/eleven stars bow down to Joseph scripture does not match the symbols in Revelation 12:1 sun/moon under her feet/on head 12 stars. The position of symbols is wrong & is not a symbol of Israel. The Woman is the Church which came out of Israel. The foundation is Jesus as source of light (sun). The Church reflected the light (as a moon). The Church came out of Judaism (the 12 stars) & has the Bible written by Jews as its guide.

Genesis 37:9 "And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me." Compared to Revelation 12 they are different.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 "Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: {6} Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; {7} And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, {8} In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: {9} Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; {10} When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. {11} Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of <this> calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of <his> goodness, and the work of faith with power: {12} That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ." God raptures the weak Church who is punished/suffering with 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God

Revelation 12:1, 6 "And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: {6}And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred & threescore days." Woman is protected & leaves.

Revelation 12:13-16 "And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. {14} And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. {15} And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. {16} And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth." Church is feed/protected for 42 months then leaves

WAIT:   God uses 144,000 Jewish man to lead many Jews and Gentiles to the Lord during the End Times.

Revelation 7:3-8 "Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. {4} And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. {5} Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. {6} Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. {7} Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. {8} Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand." Protected

DIFFERENT DOCTRINES BUT LOVE IN JESUS:

The study of End Time Events & the rapture, in particular, are emotional issues. Each person has to settle these things in their own heart & mind. Let us remain as "Christian brothers and sisters" with a difference of opinion on End Time Doctrines. This study was done with a lot of help from my brothers in the Lord. I differ in some of the things I believe, but love my brothers in the Lord.

See my paper: "Love" for more information on this subject.

I) DEFINITIONS:

End Times-Day of the Lord: Eschatology; about 7,000th year; Starts with Overcomers' rapture

Raptures: Translation of peoples to heaven/hell; Examples: Enoch, Elijah, Jesus, Overcomers, ManChild, Church, Tribulation-Saints, 2 Witnesses, 144,000, Unbelievers & All Believers & Unbelievers. The word rapture is not found in Bible.  Judgments occur to the person who leave only.  The first Resurrection in found Revelation 20:5-6.

II) STUDY BUT CONCLUSION NOT KNOWN:

The word of God is not always clear on End Time issues. God hides some truths until a later time.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Daniel 12:4, 9 "But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. {9} And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end." For 2,500 years.

Revelation 10:4 "And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not." Within The End Time Events period, truths are hidden.

III) END TIME ASSUMPTIONS:

My paper and most other papers on the End Times must make assumptions in writing the papers. I start with the requirement that most of the End Times scriptures must be discussed & shown in the teaching. Some of these scriptures could be used for several End Times Events. Which event the scriptures are used for is not always clear. Many of the End Time Event scriptures do not occur in chronological order. Also, Revelation is the key book to show God's future End Times Events including several raptures in the End Times: Overcomers (Man Child), Church, 144,000, Tribulation-Saints, 2 Witnesses, Jesus 2nd coming unbelievers, & final war raptures.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 1:19 "Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;" The seven churches extend to seven time periods and in each time period the seven churches exist even to our present day. Revelation 2 & 3 shows the Overcomers.

Revelaton 4:1 "After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter." This is a type of rapture. The Man Child (Revelation chapter 12) or Overcomers (Revelation Chapters 2-3) are pre-tribulation-raptured.

IV) REVELATION CHAPTER 12 THREE GROUPS OF PEOPLE RAPTURE:

The Prophet John wrote Revelation about 90-96 AD. The paper addresses raptures from the Revelation 12 viewpoint of three groups: Woman, Man Child, & Remnant of the Woman's Seed.

The Woman does not match Israel scripture (Genesis 37:9) wording or type. I assumed the Woman to be the Church with a John 3:16 salvation message only. She has not gone into any of the deeper things of God. During the tribulation she is cared for, but goes through half the End Times period before being Mid-Tribulation raptured. The Man Child is the Overcomer Christians who are living in the deeper things of God. God rewards them by caughting (rapture) them up unto God and His throne. The remnant of the Woman's Seed goes through much of the End Times Events and is the Jewish & Gentile Christians being saved through the efforts of the two witnesses and 144,000 Jewish believers. The Overcomers of the churches rule 1,000 years with Christ with a rod of iron when Jesus is on His Jerusalem earthy throne. In no other scripture period of time do we see the Revelation Chapter 2-3 Overcomers scripture promises fulfilled.

V) MAN CHILD:

The Man Child can't be Jesus since this is in a future period after 90AD. Jesus lived about 33AD.

The End Times people who rule with a rod of iron scripture applies to Jesus and the Overcomers. The Man Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who are caught up to God and His throne & rule.

See my paper: "Overcomer" for more information on this subject.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 12:5 "And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne." Also, Overcomers' fulfill this.

VI) PRE-TRIBULATION-RAPTURE:

Overcomer Christians caught up from going through the tribulation. They will return later with Christ to rule with Him for the 1,000 years?

See my paper: "Multiple Raptures" for more information on this subject.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:See Overcomer in:1 John 5:4, Revelation: 2:7, 2:17, 3:5, 3:12, 21:7

Revelation 2:25-27 "But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. {26} And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: {27} And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father."Man Child is fulfilled by the Overcomers who come back to rule.

Revelation 3:21 "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne." The Overcomers' will rule with Jesus.

Revelation 12:11 "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death." Their life is centered on Jesus.

Revelation 19:13-15 "And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. {14} And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. {15} And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness & wrath of Almighty God." Jesus/Overcomers' rules with iron rod.

VII) WHY DOES GOD REMOVE THESE OVERCOMER CHRISTIANS?

The Overcomer is set apart from the evil & temptations to come because he is worthy to escape God's wrath because he lived a godly/righteous life, prayed, & kept the word of God in patience.

See my paper: "The One God - The Shama" for more information on this subject.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Psalms 4:3 "But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him." Set apart godly men, Overcomers, who live a godly life.

Isaiah 57:1 "The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come." Take away men.

Luke 21:36 "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man." Escape tribulation.

1 Thessalonians 1:10 "And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come." Wait for Jesus to deliver us from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, {10} Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him." Jesus saved us so that we be forever with Him starting from our earth existence.

2 Peter 2:9 "The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:" Deliver Overcomers before tribulation.

Revelation 3:10 "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." God will keep Overcomers from temptation because they live in the deeper things of God.

VIII) END TIMES EVENTS BEGIN:

What starts the End Times Events? The rapture of the Overcomers: the "He" is taken out.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

2 Thessalonians 1:10-12, 2:1 "When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. {11} Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: {12} That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. {2:1} Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ , and by our gathering together unto him," Verse 6-Tribulation to sinners

2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 "And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. {7} For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. {8} And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: {9} Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders," He is the Overcomers who when they are raptured will allow the Antichrist to come.

This is a clear Pre-Tribulation-Rapture scripture of the He (group) to be taken out of the way.

IX) END TIME EVENTS HAS TRIBULATION/ABOMINATION/GREAT TRIBULATION:

The events of Matthew 24/Luke 21/Mark 13 do not occur in chronological order. The order is:

See my paper: "God's Dispensation & Covenant Plans" for more information on this subject.

Matthew 24:32-34 "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: {33} So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. {34} Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled."Israel is fig tree that is sign of soon coming of End Times.

Matthew 24:7-8, 14 "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. {8} All these are the beginning of sorrows. {14} And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." Beginning of sorrows events take place, including gospel preached to all the world, before the End Times Events start.

Matthew 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:" This 1st tribulation is in 1st three & half years of the End Times Events.

Matthew 24:15 "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)" This event is in the middle of 7 years End Times & starts the second 3 & 1/2 years Great Tribulation period.

Matthew 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." Last 3 & 1/2 years is the Great Tribulation worst ever.

X) RETURN OF CHRIST WILL COME AS A THIEF (NO ONE KNOWS DAY OR TIME):

These scriptures show the imminent return of the Lord. Jesus could return any time after His rapture. We are to be always ready & love His appearing which will be soon. This could occur for us by death or rapture. No future event was needed but Israel which God established in a day.

See also Matthew 24:36, 24:43-44; 2 Timothy 4:8 (love His appearing)

Isaiah 66:8 "Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children." Israel became a nation again after 2,500 years in a 1 day vote at UN.

Matthew 25:10 "And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut." See entire parable of Ten Virgins: Matthew 25:1-13 shows need to be prepared for Jesus return. John 14:3 Jesus prepares mansion.

Mark 13:32-33 "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. {33} Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is."The Church is to watch & pray for the soon return of Jesus for His 2nd coming.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 "But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. {2} For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. {3} For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. {4} But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief." Overcomers will be prepared for the day.

2 Peter 3:3-4 "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, {4} And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation." Until Jesus comes.

Revelation 17:12-13 "And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. {13} These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast." Beast gets leadership from others.

Revelation 13:1-2 "And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. {2} And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority."Beast=Anti-Christ get power from the dragon Satan; sea=nations or 10 kingdoms

XV) THE TWO WITNESSES PRESENT TESTIMONY FOR 42 MONTHS:

The two witnesses have been suggested to be Enoch and Elijah because they never died. It is also possible that they are Elijah and Moses because of their signs and powers of: fire, stopping rain from occurring, water turned to blood, and smiting the earth with all plagues. Whoever they are, God uses them as His witnesses for 42 months as prophets in Jerusalem. Many people receive their prophecy and repent, but most people are tormented and rejected their witness.

XVII) ANTI-CHRIST DIES & COMES BACK TO LIFE:

Satan heals the Anti-Christ from a deathly wound. This puts fear into other kings of 10 kingdoms.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Revelation 13:3-5 "And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. {4} And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? {5} And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months." 42 months of this power after the Anti-Christ become leader of 10 kingdoms.

This is the False Prophet 2nd or spirit of triune of Satan

XVIII) ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACE:

The Abomination of Desolation, by the Anti-Christ, with the rapture of the Church starts the

2nd 42 months Great Tribulation. The Anti-Christ brakes his covenant with Israel, stops the Israel sacrifices to God, offers sacrifices to himself, & sets up his kingdom in Jerusalem temple.

See my paper: "Inductive Bible Study of Revelation" for more information on this subject.

When sign occurs, run to mountains.

XIX) MID-TRIBULATION-RAPTURE:

The rest of the Church is raptured (not Overcomers who have already been raptured). The Genesis 37:9 Jacob(sun)/Rachel(moon)/eleven stars bow down to Joseph scripture does not match the symbols in Revelation 12:1 sun/moon under her feet/on head 12 stars. The position of symbols is wrong & is not a symbol of Israel. The Woman is the Church which came out of Israel. The foundation is Jesus as source of light (sun). The Church reflected the light (as a moon). The Church came out of Judaism (the 12 stars) & has the Bible written by Jews as its guide.

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Genesis 37:9 "And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me." Compared to Revelation 12 they are different.

2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 "Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: {6} Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; {7} And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, {8} In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: {9} Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; {10} When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. {11} Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of <this> calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of <his> goodness, and the work of faith with power: {12} That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ." God raptures the weak Church who is punished/suffering with 42 months of tribulation to count them worthy of kingdom of God

Revelation 12:1, 6 "And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: {6}And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred & threescore days." Woman is protected & leaves.

Revelation 12:13-16 "And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. {14} And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. {15} And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. {16} And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth." Church is feed/protected for 42 months then leaves

XXI) PRE-WRATH-RAPTURE:

Rapture of 144,000 Jewish men and some saints, but other saints will be killed. This event could occur after the 1st 3 & ½ tribulation years period before the Day of the Lord (God's worst wrath)

SCRIPTURES FULFILLED:

Joel 2:31-32 "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. {32} And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call." Calls remnant

Mark 13:24-27 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, {25} And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. {26} And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. {27} And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven."

The 1st tribulation has ¼ people die, followed by cosmic disturbances that produce fear in sinners that want to die rather than face Jesus wrath in the day of Christ.

Revelation 14:1-5 "And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. {2} And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: {3} And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. {4} These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. {5} And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God." 144,000 of Revelation 7:3-8 are redeemed by rapture as 1st fruits.

XXII) ANTI-CHRIST MARK & OVERCOME SAINTS:

Overcomes saints are saved as result of the 144,000 & 2 witnesses. Anti-Christ killed Christians.

Revelation 7:9 "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;" Save people are greater than 144,000.

Revelation 7:13-17 "And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? {14} And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. {15} Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. {16} They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. {17} For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes."

Revelation 12:11-12 "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. {12} Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them.

Revelation 13:16-18 "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: {17} And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. {18} Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." Anti-Christ number is 666 to buy & sell.

Revelation 14:9-10 "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, {10} The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:" God warns not to take 666 number or be judged.

XXIV) TWO WITNESSES ARE KILLED, RESURRECTED, & RAPTURED:

The two witnesses are killed by Anti-Christ and their dead bodies are left in the street for 3 & ½ days. The people rejoice because they were torment by the two witnesses' preaching and power.

Zechariah 14:2-3 "For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. {3} Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle."

These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. {21} And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh."
