1. The reader will notice that we have put words in parenthesis in the various Bible verses, this is done to help the student have a better understanding of the old King James language which is often a little bewildering to some folks who are not used to that kind of speech. Therefore, please bear with us as we teach the message. A good idea would be to read your Bible along with each verse we have quoted.

2. We believe that it is a must that this thesis be circulated with the blessed hope that many lost folks who have failed to become Christians after the Body of Christ has been Resurrected into the Heavens will read it and be led to become believers by the messages contents. There is a definite belief among many Theologians and other Bible students that the above mentioned Resurrection is going to take place at any time now, and that time is very close at hand.

3. There is also a general feeling among wide awake children of God [Christians] and also among the national leaders, and yes even among the average citizen, of impending doom just around the corner which will concern this entire worlds civilization. Those of us that are looking for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ are completely aware of the terrible judgments that await those hordes of humanity who will be left behind at the Rapture [Resurrection] of the Saints that are today called "The Body of Christ."

4. From the very beginning and on through the seven year Tribulation Period will be judgment poured out by the wrath of Almighty God upon a world that has ignored the Creator and what He has instituted as a just and rightful program for the worlds untold millions of residents. No Born again Child of God should rest until they organize a force of Christians into an Army of God and pursue the unsaved hordes of people who are in a lost condition and try to lead them to Christ.

5. This whole world is headed for destruction and judgment. Therefore, the concerned Christian should go into every home and witness to every person with a message of warning and instruction on what they should do before it is to late. Messages such as this, should be circulated and copied by the untold millions in order to keep people from being left behind after the above mentioned Resurrection. No concerned Child of God should be without concern concerning the plight of those whom are bound to be left behind after we have left this earth with Christ at the Resurrection of the Saints!

6. Leaving behind the light of the Lord's Word can be one of the greatest endeavors for the Christian of this age. During the Tribulation Period, the One World Ruler that the Word of God calls the Antichrist, a potentate filled with evil and carnality, will force his will on the people and cause a false gospel to be preached by wicked men and women. He will propagate his gospel and mark into the very heart during the last half of that Tribulation Period.

7. It is a marvelous thing to know during this present time that folks can receive spiritual Bible knowledge by attending a place of worship in their own community any time they chose to do so. If you as a Believer will choose to spread God's Word among the people, you can be assured that because of your calling and aggressive fortitude for the cause of Christ, lost people will be saved!

8. But should you fail God and decide not to do your part, you can be sure that some lost souls will fail to be saved and they will perish and spend eternity in perdition. Remember this, all Christians are ordained as Ministers and Ambassadors of Christ, please don't fail your Savior the Lord Jesus who died for you and remember, because of His death, you are now a child of God the Father. {See 2- Corinthians 5:20- on to Ch. 6:4}.


Concerning Those That Have Missed The Resurrection Of The Body Of Christ...

9. All those swift moving events in the national, political, and religious world, which is proceeding to fulfill many long standing prophecies, gives us a clear and unmistakable testimony to the fact of the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ. Concerning this message, we will give several Scripture passages to prove the authenticity of the subject. As you know, the Bible is its own interpreter.

The Lord Jesus Christ Is Personally Coming Again!

10. {V.2} Scripture ... "In My Father's house are many mansions [dwelling places], if it were not so, I would have told you. I go and prepare a place for you.

11. {V.3} And [when] if I go and prepare a place for you, I WILL COME AGAIN, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also {John 14:2-3}." Scripture...

12. {V.10} "And while they looked steadfastly [gazing intently] toward Heaven as He [Christ] went up [was translated into Heaven], Behold two men [Angels] stood by them [the disciples of Christ dressed] in white apparel [robes];

{V.11} which also said, you men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into Heaven? THIS SAME JESUS, which is taken up from you into Heaven, shall also come [back to the earth] in like manner as you have seen Him go [translated up] into heaven." {Acts 1:10-11}." {See Zechariah 14:4}.

13. In the above verses, the prophecy was given by the Angels, In Zechariah the fulfillment of the prophecy will take place. As you can see, even Angels were used by the Lord as prophets at various times. Scripture...

14. In {Matthew Ch. 25:1-13}, we find the marriage of the Lamb of God foretold in a parable. Scripture...

15. {V.1} "Then shall the [earthly] Kingdom of [and from] Heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the Bridegroom.

16. {V.2} And five of them were wise [sensible, intelligent, prudent and in a saved condition], and five were foolish [Thoughtless, not really concerned, without forethought and were unbelievers].

17. {V.3} They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them. [oil is a type of the Holy Spirit . This means that they were not indwelt with the Holy Spirit and were in an unsaved condition].

18. {V.4} But the wise took [flasks of] oil [along with them also] in their vessels with their lamps. {They had Oil ... the Holy Spirit indwelling them].

19. {V.5} While the Bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. [This is a picture of Christ abiding at the right hand of the Father in Heaven for the last 2000 years, which made people think He was slow in His second coming back to this earth].

20. {V.6} And at midnight there was a cry made, behold, the Bridegroom comes; go you out to meet Him.

21. {V.7} Then all those virgins arose [put in order], and trimmed their lamps.

22. {V.8} And the foolish said to the wise, give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone [going] out.

23. {V.9} But the wise answered, saying, not so; lest there be not enough for us and you, but go you rather [to the dealers] to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. [They were living in spiritual darkness . All people must provide their own oil. By faith].

24. {V.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.

25. {V.11} Afterward came also the other [unsaved slothful] virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open [the door] to us.

26. {V.12} But He answered and said, verily I [solemnly declare and] say unto you, I [am not acquainted with you and] know you not.

27. {V.13} Watch therefore [give strict attention and be cautious and active], for you know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of Man comes {Matthew 25:1-13}." [In type, even though this verse is applied to Israel in the future, it can also in a secondary way be a warning to folks in this present age of grace].

28. In {V.13}, the words "Son of man," is never mentioned in connection with the Body of Christ of today. It is Christ's special title in relation to the Hebrew nation. As we look at the above parable we find that five are foolish. And as we approach the end of the Tribulation Period, it is just hours before the return of the coming Messiah.

29. Israel has been instructed by the 1,44000 Hebrew Ministers of {Revelation Ch. 7:2-8 ... and also of the two prophets of Revelation Ch. 11} to be watching for her Bridegroom to return that He might preserve and protect her, but many of these folks fail drastically to heed the advice and we find that five of these virgins are of this group.

30. Then we find that there are another five virgins which are very wise. They have the Holy Spirit, that is, they have oil which is a type of the Holy Spirit, in their lamps, and they have made themselves ready, but these other five virgins have not really believed in the Messiah.

31. We find that they are pictured here at the end of the Tribulation Period as being unprepared and are actually unsaved without the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in their hearts. Therefore, they do not belong to the Messiah. When Jesus breaks into view and the cry is called forth, then He has been seen returning in the clouds of heaven {See Acts 1:9-11, & Zechariah 14:4}. Those of the Israelites who are Saints will be united to their King, the promised Bridegroom. She [the saved Remnant of Israel] has made herself ready and the marriage will then take place. Israel as the Bride will enjoy the blessings so long promised to her.

32. Those who have accepted the mark of the beast at that time, which actually will consist of by far the greatest percentage of earth's population, will be taken out and cast into outer darkness of hell, because they refused to believe. Many may have Professed Christ but they DID NOT POSSES HIM. "Then shall the kingdom of heaven [Millennial reign of Christ on this earth] be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the Bridegroom."

33. Even though the above texts are applied to the nation Israel, folks today should be aware that in typology the same thing can be applied to those of this very age who are not ready and are still in an unbelieving condition. If you and your loved ones are left behind when the Resurrection takes place, it is evident that all of you have never received Christ through the baptism of the Holy Spirit portrayed in {1- Corinthians 12:13 & Romans 6:3-4} and been saved from your sins.

34. Incidentally, the baptism in the two chapters just given have nothing to do with water baptism but only refer to the baptism of the Holy Spirit which is a spiritual baptism that takes place at the very instant one is saved. No water is used and no tongues is uttered when this baptism is received.

35. If you were left behind, this means that you were not ready to go. You waited too long. The fact is, you must search your Heart [mind] and see where you have gone wrong. {Read John 3:16-17}. If you have missed the Resurrection, you are going to have to go through the seven year Tribulation Period that will follow the Rapture. We learn from the Scriptures that there will be untold multitudes of people that are left behind to go into that time of tribulation. We find a warning given to the nation Israel concerning the Second Coming of Christ at the end of the Tribulation Period ... Scripture ...

36. {Luke 17:34}... Jesus states ... "I tell you, in that NIGHT there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

37. Two women shall be grinding together [at the mill]; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

38. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken and the other left. {Luke 17:34-36}."

39. Even though this prophecy is applied to Israel at the time of the Second Coming of Christ when He judges the individuals of each of the worlds nations, this is a type of what is going to take place at the time the Rapture takes place for the Body of Christ. Those whom are taken in the above verses are all in a lost condition and will have taken the mark of the beast as is foretold in {Revelation Ch 13:26-17}. These folks will be taken and cast into hell, the ones which are left are the ones who are called sheep in {Matthew 25:32} and are in a saved condition, thus, they will enter into the Millennial reign of Christ and dwell on the earth throughout the entire Millennium.

40. At the Rapture [Resurrection] of the Body of Christ, Those which are to be taken will be resurrected up into the clouds of the atmosphere of this earth to meet the Lord in the air, Scripture... {V.16} "For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout [a loud cry of summons], with the voice of the archangel [Michael], and with the [blast of the] trumpet of God: and the dead [bodies of those in the graves who are] in Christ shall rise first:

41. {V.17} Then we which are alive and remain [on the earth] shall [simultaneously] be caught up together with them [those resurrected dead bodies of Saints whose souls had already gone to heaven at their time of Death] in the clouds [of our worlds atmosphere] to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever [through the eternity of the eternity's] be with the Lord. {V.18} Therefore comfort [and encourage] one another with these words {1- Thessalonians 4:16-18}." Scripture...

42. {V.51} "Behold [take notice], I show [and tell] you a mystery [a secret truth, an event decreed by the hidden purpose of God]; We shall not all [fall a] sleep [in death], but we shall all be changed [transformed],

43. {V.52} In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the [sound of the] last trumpet [call for the body of Christ]: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead [in Christ] shall be raised incorruptible [imperishable- free and immune from decay], and we shall be changed [into spiritual bodies that will exist in Heaven forever] {1- Corinthians 15:51-52}."

44. As the reader can see, the Rapture portrays the saved as going up to meet the Lord, whereas at the Second Coming, those whom are taken are to be cast into the hell of Sheol.


The Great Tribulation!

45. The horrendous suffering of Humanity during that period will be indescribable. Tormenting fear and anxiety will haunt the soul of every living creature throughout the entire earth. Scripture...

46. {V.21} "For then shall be great tribulation [trouble, affliction, distress and oppression], such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, No, nor ever shall be. {V.22} And except those [Tribulation Period] days should be shortened, there should be no flesh be saved [no human being on this earth would be able to survive]: but for the elect's sake [God's chosen ones] those days shall be shortened {Matthew 24:21-22}." Scripture...

47. "And there shall be a time of trouble [during the Tribulation Period], such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time [that all of this takes place]: And at that time [Michael the archangel who is the protector of Israel shall come forth and] your people shall be delivered [out of the hand of the antichrist and Satan and this includes], every one that shall be found written in the book [of life] {Daniel 12:1}."

48. The Tribulation will begin when mankind have entered into a reign of wicked endeavors such as was prevalent on the earth in Noah's day when the deluge of the flood took place. There will be great wickedness prevailing with widespread anarchy among the people. One of the reasons for God to allow such a time of trouble to transcend over this earth will be to separate every evil, lost sinner and cast him to what ever reward he may receive at the judgment of the damned. If people continue to evade God's will and fail to yield to Him that person will be destroyed from this earth. Scripture...

49. {V.9} "Behold [take notice], the day of the Lord [Tribulation Period] comes, cruel [fierce] both with wrath and fierce [raging] anger, to lay the land [of Israel and much of the whole earth] desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. {It is important to see Isaiah 2:10-22; & Revelation 19:11-21}.

50. {V.10} for the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth [at its rising], and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

51. {V.11} And I [the Lord] will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their [guilt and] iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy [and haughtiness of the terrible and] of the proud to cease, and I will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible [and of the boasting of the violent and ruthless] {Isaiah 13:9-11}." .

52. There is no doubt, that after the last person who has yielded himself to the Lord by becoming a Believer, and the last individual has decided to refuse the salvation that God has offered him and has been cast into hell, then the Lord God is going to give the Millennial Kingdom to the Lord Jesus and His Saints that are at that time upon the earth. [The student should read our 9 part message concerning The Bride of Christ]." All those who abide upon the earth during the Millennium will live upon the future New Earth forever. Scripture...

53. {V.13} "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of Man [Christ Himself] came with the clouds of [the atmospheric] heaven, and came to the Ancient of days [God the Father], and they brought him near before Him.

54. {V.14} And there was given Him [the Messiah] dominion, and glory and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages should serve Him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom [is one] that which shall not be destroyed {Daniel 7:13-14}."

55. "But the saints of the most high [God] shall take [receive] the kingdom, and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and forever {Daniel 7:18}. {See Revelation 3:21}.

56. During the Tribulation, controlled by the Antichrist, there will an international army, therefore, should you be left behind at the Rapture, make sure that you DO NOT enlist or become any part of that organization. If you must die, by torture or even by being beheaded by a guillotine, remember this, the only way out in order to have eternal life is through Jesus Christ! The Antichrist who will be the dictator over the newly created, United States of Europe, and will simply be an incarnate devil in human flesh. Satan will give this false Christ his power and the world's nations will be under the complete control of this arch-fiend and many revolutions will take place throughout the entire world.

57. If our own estimate is true, during the Antichrist's reign and shortly after because of his reign, approximately ninety percent of humanity will loose their lives. At this time in just one war, one forth of the human race is to be destroyed. In the battle of Armageddon, another third part of the people will die. Scripture...

58. {V.4} "And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him [the rider of the horse] that set thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they [the invaders] should kill one another: and there was given to him a great sword. {See Ezekiel 38:15-16, 21; 39:4-5}.

59. {V.8} And I looked, and behold a [ashy] pale horse: and his name that set on him was Death, and Hell [Hades, the realm of the wicked dead] followed with him [closely]. And power [with authority] was given to them [the rider and his followers] over the forth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger [famine, plague, pestilence, disease], and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. {Revelation 6: vs. 4, & 8}." [Read our message concerning "The destruction of Russia, not if but when"]. {See also Hosea 13:14; Ezekiel 5:12; Zechariah 2:6; 13:8-9}. Scripture...

During the battle of Armageddon, the text states, {V.13} "And the sixth angel sounded [his trumpet], and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,

{V.14} Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.

{V.15} And the four angels [who had been in readiness for that hour] were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year for to slay the third part of man. {See Revelation 16:16; & Zechariah 14:2}.

{V.18} By these three [catastrophes] was the third part of man killed... {Revelation 9:13-15, & 18}."

60. At the Second Return of Christ at the end of that seven years of tribulation, the Lord is going to cast into hell all those who have taken the mark of the beast, these that are cast away are called "Goats." {See Matthew 25:31-46}. When you read {v.8} above, you will notice that the beasts of the field will play a large part in the death of millions of people. These beast refers not only to animals but also to insects. During the dark ages, the flees from rats and mice carried the bubonic plague, because of the plague, untold millions in Europe were affected and died.

61. There have been such plagues many times in the past, but during the tribulation there will be a horrendous loss of life because of the diseases and pestilence's, and of course we cannot forget the aides virus that is even now running rampant over the earth and this virus will increase throughout the tribulation. And then, there is the case of germ warfare, many countries have stock piles of germs that they can load into missiles to aim at any country they desire. Don't you dare believe that this won't happen! These viruses will be like an army that invades the whole world and for sure it is going to happen. Scripture ...

62. {V.1} "Blow you the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain [Zion]: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord [judgment of the Tribulation Period] comes, for it is near at hand; {See Ezekiel 33:1-7; Joel 1:15; Amos 5:16-20; & Ezekiel 7:3-4};

63. {V.2} A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick [mist and] darkness, as the morning [dawn] spread upon [and over] the mountains: a great [mass of heathen and hostile] people and a [very] strong [people numerous and mighty]; there has not been [such a horde of invaders] ever the like [this], neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. {See Revelation 6:12-14}.

64. {V.3} A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burns: the land [of Israel] is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness: yes, and nothing shall escape them [escape the ravages of these devouring hordes].

65. {V.4} The appearance of them is as the appearance of [war] horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. {See Revelation 9:7}.

66. {V.5} Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. {Again, see Revelation 9:7-9}.

67. {V.6} Before their face the people shall be much pained [with anguish]: all faces shall gather blackness.

68. {V.7} They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one [straight ahead] on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:

69. {V.8} Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.

70. {V.9} They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.

71. {V.10} The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: {This sounds similar to Revelation 16:14; and of demons like locusts in Revelation 9:2-4}.

72. {V.11} And the Lord shall utter His voice before His army: for His camp is very great: for He is strong that executes His Word: For the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? {Joel 2:1-11}." {See Revelation 6:16-17; Isaiah 26:20-21; & 34:1-4, 8}.

73. The above verses all have double meanings, and can refer to Atomic fallout, of huge swarms of locusts, the invasion of demons, of wicked Angels, of people, and definitely of germ warfare. All of this, as we see, will cause millions of deaths and suffering. And medical science will not be able to cure any of this trouble because the Lord is chastising the earth and its inhabitants because their wickedness and unrepentance. The armies of the nations will be under the wrath of God at that time, they are going to be utterly destroyed: therefore, no matter what, never join in any army or in any other organization that goes against the will of Almighty God.

74. {V.1} Scripture "Come near, you nations, to hear; and hearken [listen], you people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.

75. {V.2} For the indignation of the Lord is upon all nations, and His fury upon all the armies: He has utterly destroyed them, He has delivered them to the slaughter.

76. {V.3} Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink [of their bodies] shall come up out of their carcasses, and the mountains shall be melted [and flow] with their blood.

77. {V.4} And all the host [of stars, meteorites and planets] of [the first and second] heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falls off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree {Isaiah 34:1-4}."

78. The battle of Armageddon will be fought at the close of the Tribulation Period and at that time, the combined armies of the nations will be destroyed. Also the earth itself will be drastically changed in such a way that it will be unrecognizable. It is likely that the continents will once again join each other as they seem to have been at the beginning. If one will glance at a world map he will notice the way the North and South American Continent and the African and European Continents could fit together very nicely. {See Genesis 10:25}.

79. Scripture "And He gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon [migiddo, Mount of slaughter]." {Revelation 16:16}." [When the Tribulation begins, People will likely believe the end of the world is at hand. The Hebrew word megiddo was "gadded," which has two meanings: "gather in troops" and "cut off and destroy]." {See Joel 3:12}.

80. {V.11} Scripture "And [after that] I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse [appeared]; and He [Christ] that set on [and was ridding] him was called Faithful [trustworthy, loyal, perfection] and True, and in righteousness He does judge and make war. {See Matthew 24:29-30}.

81. {V.12} His eyes were [blazing] as a flame of fire, and on His head were crowns [kingly diadems]; and He had a name [a title] written, that no man knew [or could understand] but He Himself.

82. {V.13} And He was clothed with a vesture [a robe] dipped in [the] blood [of His enemies]: and His name is called The Word of God [Jesus Christ Himself].

83. {V.14} And the armies [consisting of many troops] which were in heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in white linen, white and [dazzling] clean.

84. {V,15} And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword [which is the Word of God], that with it He should smite [afflict and strike] the nations [in judgment]: and He shall [shepherd, control and] rule them with a rod [scepter] of iron: and He [will] treads the winepress of the fierceness and [indignation and] wrath of [the Supreme ruler and the Omnipotent] Almighty God {Revelation 19:11-25}."

85. If you are left behind, never, never, never persecute the Hebrews [Jews]. Because all people and nations who are guilty of persecuting the Hebrew people will positively be destroyed by the Lord, the Hebrews Messiah. {See Isaiah 54:17; & Deuteronomy 30:7; Genesis 12:3; & Zechariah 12:2-3}. If one thinks that it isn't important in this age to become a Christian just read on and see what it's going to be like if you are left behind at the Rapture. Scripture...

86. "For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance [Tribulation Period], and the year of recompenses [to make compensation for the wrongs that have been committed] for the controversy of Zion {Isaiah 34:8}." Again the Lord speaks to the saved Remnant of Israel ...

87. {V.16} Scripture "Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that spoil you shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon you will I give for a prey.

88. {V.17} For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says the Lord; because they called you an outcast, saying [all Jews should be destroyed as Hitler tried to do, and many other people would like to do], This is Zion, whom no man seeks after [and no one cares!].

89. {V.18} Thus says the Lord; Behold, I will [release the Hebrews from the nations of this world and] bring again the captivity of Jacob's [Israel's] tents, and have mercy on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.

90. {V.19} And out of them [the city and its palace] shall proceed [the songs of] thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small. [The saved Remnant of Hebrews and Gentiles who are still alive after the Tribulation ends shall go into the future Millennium and will produce many children and they shall not die throughout the whole Millennium]. {See Isaiah 65:20-25}.

91. {V.20} Their children also shall be as aforetime [as it was in time past when they were in the will of God], and their congregation shall be established before Me, and I will punish all that oppress them {Jeremiah 30:16-20}." [even though the text is speaking about the Israelites, all the saved of the nations are also to be wonderfully blessed likewise].

92. We must give a warning that now and after the Rapture no one should ever persecute a Jew [Hebrew] or a Christian, As a matter of fact you should never persecute anyone whether they are saved or lost just to get even with them. The Bible makes clear that God is to be the judge of all humanity.

93. One should especially assist Hebrews and Christians in their distresses after the Rapture for it may be by assisting them, that may help you to turn to the Lord for your own salvation. It will be a glorious day when the Lord returns at His Second Coming with His Saints. But it will be a troublesome time for those whom Christ will judge at the judgment of the Nations.


The Judgment Of The Nations ...

94. Scripture ... The judgment of the Nations will occur in the valley of Jehoshaphat between the eastern wall of the Temple mount and the mount of Olives. {See Joel 3:2-12}. Scripture...

95. {V.31} "When the Son of Man shall come in His glory [His majesty and splendor], and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory: {See Isaiah 9:7}.

96. {V.32} And before Him shall be gathered [the people of] all nations: And He shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep [saved] from the goats [lost]; [Most of these folks will have accepted the mark of the beast. See psalm 100:3 & Ezekiel 34:17}.

97. {V.33} And He shall set the sheep [saved] on His right hand, but the goats [lost] on the left. {See John 10:1-4, 7, 17, 24-30; Also Psalm 110:5-6; Revelation 14:9-11; 19:11-15;}. {Concerning the sheep, see Revelation 20:4}.

98. {V.34} Then shall the king say unto them on his right hand, come, you blessed of My Father [that is, you who are favored of God and have been appointed to eternal salvation, you are going to], inherit [receive as your own] the [Millennial] kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

99. {V.35} For I was an hungered, and you gave me meat [food]: I was thirsty, and you gave me [something to] drink: I was a stranger, and you took me in [amongst yourselves and hid Me and cared for Me]: [Gentiles will feed many of the Hebrews during the time of Tribulation because the Hebrews will be persecuted by the Antichrist more than anyone else. It will be another holocaust for the Hebrews and much, much worse than the last one that took place in Germany].

100. {V.36} [I was] Naked, and you clothed me: I was sick, and you visited me [with help and ministering care]: I was in prison, and you came unto me [in sorrow to provide me with your compassion].

101. {V.37} Then shall the righteous [the just and upright Christian Believer] answer him, saying, Lord when saw we you en hungred, and fed you? or thirsty, and gave you drink? [Salvation has always been, by grace through faith in Christ. Believers works provide outward indications of saving faith in their lives, especially during the great Tribulation. {See James 2:26}.

102. {V.38} When saw we you a stranger, and took you in? or naked [fed, protected, hid] and clothed you? [There will be two Judgments take place here, for the sheep (Saved Believer), only their works will be judged].

103. {V.39} Or when saw we you sick, or in prison, and came unto you?

104. {V.40} And [Jesus] the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily [truly] I say unto you, Inasmuch as you have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren [Hebrews during the Tribulation Period], you have done it unto me. {See Hebrews 2:10-11; Joel 3:7-8; Proverbs 19:17; & Hebrews 2:27}. [The same would also apply to the people who protect the saved persecuted Gentiles].

105. {V.41} Then shall He say also to them on the [at His] left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

106. {V.42} For I was an hungred, and you [Christ rejecters] gave Me no meat [food]: I was thirsty, and you gave Me no drink:

107. {V.43} I was a stranger, and you took Me not in [to hide, protect and care for Me]: [I was] naked, and you clothed Me not: sick, and in prison, and you visited Me not.

108. {V.44} Then shall they [at that time] also answer Him, saying, Lord, when saw we You an hungred or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to You?

109. {V.45} Then shall He answer them, saying, Verily [surely] I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it not to one of the least of these [whom believed in Me as the Messiah], you did it not to Me.

110. {V.46} And these [selfish followers of the Antichrist] shall go away into everlasting punishment [Gehenna, the lake of fire]: but the righteous into life eternal {Matthew 25:31-46}." [All those who are lost at that time will have received the mark of the beast]. {See Matthew 13:40, 42, 27-50; & Ch. 24:50-51}.

111. Those who have received Christ as Savior and have protected, the Jews, hidden them, fed and clothed and cared for them, will be blessed tremendously after entering into the Kingdom age. All these will be the nucleus to repopulate the earth during the Millennial Reign of Christ. For those of you who are not saved to ill-treat the Hebrews and Christians and aid in their capture and affliction will be found worthy of the punishment foretold in {v.46} above. It will be very dangerous for you to follow anyone who professes that he is the Lord. Even though someone may be able to perform countless miracles, do not follow him!

112. There will be tremendous pressure and stress on those who are left behind, thus, it will be a time when many folks will wish for someone to follow. Remember this, there will be present, false teachers, preachers and theologians who have never become Christians before the Rapture. The majority of these will go right on teaching their liberal doctrine to the masses, their message will be to accept the Antichrist as your god. Remember this also, there will be many Bibles, tracts, Bible messages such as this one and many VCR tapes left behind that you can read and listen to when you are left behind.

113. It will be just as easy for false preachers and teachers to receive a following at that time as it is today ... and many people will be persuaded to follow them. To do this will be one of the greatest mistakes they will ever make!

114. Those false disciples of the false Christ with their mighty oratory and smooth lies will deceive many people. The only safety will be to place your complete trust in the biblical Jesus Christ, even though He will not be present on the earth at that time, just read all the verses we have in this message and believe them, then you will know that He will come shortly to save you from the wrath of the Antichrist system. Scripture makes clear that at the return of our Savior, He will Come down to this earth and His feet will land upon the Mount of Olives at Jerusalem, every person on this earth will witness His return! Scripture...

115. {V.9} "And when He [Jesus] had spoken these things, while they [the mass of Hebrews] beheld [looked on], He was taken up; and a cloud received Him out of their sight.

116. {V.10} And while they looked steadfastly [gazing intently] toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men [Angels] stood by them [the mass of Hebrews] in white apparel [robes];

117. {V.11} Which also said, you men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is [caught away and] taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner [to stand upon the mount of olives] as you have seen Him go into Heaven {Acts 1:9-11}." These two are acting as prophets foretelling these Hebrews about the Second Return of Christ. Scripture...

118. {V.1} The Lord Jesus as Messiah states, "Behold, the day of the Lord [Tribulation Period] comes, and your [Israel's] spoil [that was taken from you] shall be divided [among the victors] in the midst of you.

119. {V.2} For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled [burglarized], and the women ravished [raped]; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue [rest] of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

120. {V.3} Then shall the Lord go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fought in the day of battle. {See Zechariah 12:2-4, 10; See also Joshua 10:14; & 2- Timothy 4:8}.

121. {V.4} And His [Christ's] feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which [lies] is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave [be divided] 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 [and be divided] toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

122. {V.9} And the Lord shall be King over all the earth: in that [one thousand year] day shall there be one Lord, and His name one {Zechariah 14:1-4; & 9." See also Isaiah 64:1-2}."

123. As you can see, the prophecy of the two Angels reaches their fulfillment in the above verses. At the moment of the Lord's return, there will be a large earthquake which will cause the Mount of Olives to split in two different directions, the valley in the center of the mount will go from east to west and another valley from north to south. At the return of Jesus, there will be much publicity because of Him being seen by the populace.

124. This is one reason you can be assured that no false Christ's will be able to fool you if you use your brain. By remembering the above Scriptures, you will know that He cannot return to the earth until the end of the Tribulation Period. The only way Jesus will come back is when He is seen by those on earth which will be noticed on public television by the whole world. Therefore, when someone states that he is the Christ before the end of the Tribulation, you will know that, that person is a false Christ. Thus, even by the miracle working powers of any man, you will know that he is not the Lord. Matthew states, Scripture ...

125. {V.24-25} "For there shall arise false Christ's, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect [The saved remnant of Israel and the saved of the Gentiles]. Behold, I have told you [and warned you] before [hand]. [These false deceivers will fail in their endeavors].

126. {V.26} Therefore if they shall say to you, Behold, He is in the [wilderness or in the] desert; go not forth: behold, He is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

127. {V.27} For [just] as the lighting comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be.

128. {V.28} For wherever the carcass [dead corpse] is, there will be the eagles [vultures and other ravenous birds] be gathered. {See Revelation 19:17-18; Ezekiel 39:17-20; Job 39:26-30; Luke 21:25-26; Revelation 16:18}; Part of this next verse is the key to the fact that it takes place right at the last of the Tribulation Period, Scripture...

129. {V.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. Many Bible verses have a double meaning which it seems this verse has. The last part of the verse where stars are mentioned seems to apply to the middle of the Tribulation Period. [wicked angels being cast out of the first and second heaven, are depicted as stars] See ... {Revelation 12:3-4; Isaiah 13:19; 34:4; Zephaniah 1:12-18}. Again, at the end of the Tribulation Period, {v.30} says...

130. {V.30} And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in [the sky of the atmospheric] heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn [and beat their breast and lament in anguish], and they shall see [Christ] the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory [in brilliancy and splendor] {Matthew 24:24-30}." [As you can see, every person is going to see the sign and the appearing of the Lord at His return].

One thing we must mention here, if a man comes on the scene and states that he is a prophet, don't ignore him because he may be what he says he is. Remember, there will be 1,44000 Jewish prophets called at that time to witness over the earth, so you should study your Bible and make sure these men are authentic if one or more contacts you {Read Revelation Ch. 7}. Just ask the man if Jesus Christ is The Son of God and the Messiah of Israel, if he says no, he is a false prophet. Scripture...

131. {V.4} "And they worshipped [and paid homage to Satan] the dragon which gave [dominion, authority and] power to the beast: and they worshipped [and praised] the beast [Antichrist], saying, who is like [or can match] unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

132. {V.5} And there was given unto him [the Antichrist] a mouth speaking great things and [uttering boastful] blasphemies [against God]; and power [and freedom to exert his authority and to exercise his will over the earth, it also] was given to him to continue [another 3 1/2 years] forty and two months. [of thirty days each, Which will bring him to the end of the Tribulation].

133. {V.6} And he [the beast] opened his mouth in blasphemy [in slanders and mockery] against God, blaspheme [blaspheming] His name, and His tabernacle, and they that dwell in heaven. [After Satan is cast out of heaven, the Antichrist becomes completely controlled by Satan and the Antichrist desecrates everything his filthy hands touch].

134. {V.7} And it was given to him to make war with [the Lord's earthly holy people] the Saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindred's and tongues [languages] and nations. [He wishes to destroy all Christians, he is a self made Deity]. {See Daniel 7:21, 25}.

135. {V.8} And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, Whose names [the unbelievers who] are not written in the book of life of the Lamb [that was murdered and sacrificed on the cross when He was] slain from the foundation of the world.

136. {V.9} If any man have an ear [and is able to hear], let him hear.

137. {V.10} He that leads [others] into captivity shall [himself] go into captivity: he which kills with the sword [any weapon of destruction] must [also] be killed with the sword. Here is the [call for the] patience and the faith [and fidelity] of the Saints. {See Jeremiah 15:2}. {The Apostle Paul stresses this type of thing in Galatians 6:7}.


Concerning The False Prophet ...

138. {V.11} And I beheld another beast [the False prophet] coming up out of the earth [out of the nations, making himself known] and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke [and roared out false doctrine] like a dragon [the devil]. This man is Antichrist's lieutenant, and will control the false One World Church system. The Antichrist will protect him for a promise of loyalty and devotion, what a team!

139. {V.12} And he exercised all the power [and right of control over all the people as that] of the first beast [the Antichrist and] before him [that is, in the Antichrist's presence], and he caused the earth and them which dwell therein to [exalt and] worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

The Antichrist will likely receive a wound in his head that will kill him. With the power of Satan, the False prophet, Satan's miracle worker will be able to bring the Antichrist back to life which will be similar to the true Resurrection when Christ was Resurrected from His tomb. As you can see here, Satan is acting like he has full power, the same as God the Father. The Antichrist is wounded unto death, acting the part of the Lord Jesus when He was murdered on the cross, and the false prophet brought him back to life, acting the part of the true Holy Spirit of God. Again I say, what a counterfeit team!

140. {V.13} And he did great wonders [signs and miracles], so that he made fire come down from heaven [the atmosphere] on the earth in the sight of men. Any good Bible student knows that God Jehovah used Fire to reveal Himself to the Israelites, so this false prophet uses fire to imitate the true Miracles of God. The trouble is, the largest part of mankind will accept this false trinity as their God. {See Genesis 19:24; Leviticus 10:1-2; & 1- Kings 18:38}. Remember this, any man can gain a following if he so desires, even politicians such as a President. They can lie till they are red in the face and many will believe them. Sometimes they lie so often that they even start believing themselves!

141. {V.14} And deceived them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast [Antichrist]; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image [Computer like statue that can talk] to the beast, which had the wound by a sword [weapon], and did live. {See Deuteronomy 13:1-5}.

142. {V.15} And he had power to give life [possibly with computer chips] to the image [a statue fashioned in the image] of the beast, that the image of the beast should [actually] speak, and cause that as many as would not [bow down to] worship the image of the beast should be killed {See Daniel 3:5}. This image of the beast will be placed in the temple in Jerusalem which is strictly forbidden by God {See Exodus 20:4}. Matthew and Daniel the prophet calls the image "the abomination of desolation" and it will be erected in the temple right in the middle of the Tribulation Period {See Matthew 24:15}.

143. {V.16} And he caused all [alike], both [the] small and [The] great, [the] rich and [the] poor, [the] free and [the] bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads. Likely, an international identification system computer chip. A mark in the forehead symbolizes a type of a profession; in the hand to signify a workman in a certain type of service:

144. {V.17} And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark or the name [inscription] of the beast, or the number [666] of his name. 666 is the number of incompleteness, even so, without this mark, no one will be able to buy even a small item. Included in the mark [chip] there will likely be the prefix number 666 that will be essential for marketing and purchasing purposes.

145. {V.18} Here is wisdom [room for discernment]. Let him that has understanding [of interpretation and intelligence penetration and insight enough to] count [and calculate] the number of the beast: for it is the [human] number of a [certain] man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six {Revelation 13:4-18}."

The prefix number on a great many license tags even at this very time in Israel is 666. Many folks in the past have falsely picked certain men who they thought would be the beast, but only when he comes on the scene can he be known and that will be after the Rapture.

146. If you are left behind, do not ever, even if death of any kind stares you in the face, let anybody whether friend or foe, put any type of mark or computer chip under your skin or on your forehead or anywhere on your hands. To allow this to happen is to commit an unpardonable sin. This particular sin can never be forgiven or be annulled. After receiving that mark, your soul will be doomed to an everlasting Lake of Fire in the prison of no return! This sentence can never be reversed. [See our message about the "Prison of no return}."

147. There will be tremendous pressure brought to bear upon every person on this earth to take this mark. They may resort to the most cruel methods of torturing folks to death, even to those same types of torture that was performed during the inquisition of the dark ages, But if this takes place, don't relent. Even a life of pain can never be comparable to eternity in hell, and should you be eventually killed, you will be rewarded with eternal life in heaven with your Lord. Scripture...

{Vs. 9 to 11 below} are probably the most graphic picture of judgment and are self explanatory. The judgment is very great as it is ministered in the presence of Jesus and His angels. Contrary to teachings of the cultists; this judgment is endless. See Matthew 25:46].

148. {V.9} Scripture "And the third Angel followed them saying, with a loud voice, if any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark [number or inscription to be placed] in his forehead, or in his hand,

149. {V.10} The same [people who accept this mark] shall [have to] 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 presents of the holy angels, and in the presents of the Lamb. {Luke 12:8-9; 1-Timothy 3:16; 1- Corinthians 6:3; & Revelation 20:4. Concerning brimstone, see Genesis 19:24; Revelation 9:18}.

150. {V.11} And the smoke of their torment ascends up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name. [Day or night means "unceasingly."] {See Isaiah 34:10}.

151. {V.12} Here is [a call for] the patience [the steadfastness and for the endurance] of the saints: here are they that [habitually] keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. [An assuring promise to Saints, the same promise as in vs. 13].

152. {V.13} And I [further] heard a voice from heaven [understanding the distinct words] saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth [from now on]: Yes, [happy to be envied indeed] says the Spirit, [in] that they may rest from their labors; and their [Christian] works do follow [attend, and accompany] them [Revelation 14:9-13}." Many Saints at that time will be killed but a minute after death they will be happy in Heaven their rewards will follow them, because they will have just came out of Great Tribulation, the worst time ever. The victory is now at hand. {See Matthew 24:21}.


After You Are Left Behind, There Are Certain Things You Should Do ...

153. No. 1... You should positively surrender yourself to the Lord Jesus.
No. 2... Bow down and confess your sins to God.
No. 3 ... Ask the Lord to bestow on you much strength through the grace of Christ that you might serve Him through the certain persecution, torture and even martyrdom.
No. 4 ... Remember this: there will be no neutral ground in this period of tribulation.
No. 5 ... The entire civilization on earth will be forced to choose between the Antichrist or Christ; and that choice once taken will be final and eternal. But positively, you can be an overcomer, read on...

154. {V.7} Scripture ... "And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, [one third of the angels followed Satan when he rebelled against God. Two thirds followed the Lord.

155. It is possible that this war begins at the Rapture of the Body of Christ, with Satan trying to disallow the Saints of God to leave earth as they are being Resurrected into heaven. Many skirmishes could take place in heaven till the middle of the Tribulation Period when the devil who is the deceiver and his host will be defeated and be cast down to the earth. The word Satan means "enemy or adversary." {See Daniel 12:1}, Also Concerning the Antichrist see {Daniel 11:36-45}.

156. {V.8} And [Satan] prevailed not; neither was there place found any more in heaven.

157. {V.9} And the great dragon [which implies his power] was cast out, that old serpent [which implies his guile], called the devil, and Satan [the resister], which deceived the whole world: he was cast out unto the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. {See Ezekiel 28:17; & Zechariah 3:1}.

158. {V.10} And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation and strength, and the kingdom [dominion, and reign] of God [on the earth], and the power [the sovereignty and the authority] of His [Son] Christ [the Messiah]: for the accuser [Satan, who kept bringing before God the Father charges against the Saints on the earth both day and night and] of [all the rest of] our brethren [and now Satan] is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. {See Job 1:9-11}.

159. All Heaven rejoices because Satan is no longer there. Satan's main ministry is to accuse Believers, he is a slanderer and an accuser while he is in Heaven. Satan, before the Rapture, is given the right to approach the throne of God that he may accuse each and every Christian on this earth of something.

160. But it does him no good, because Christ our mediator [lawyer] in heaven refutes Satan and lets him know that, no matter what a child of God has done while here on earth, the believer has had his or her sins paid for on the cross of Calvary and will never lose their salvation! The Believers defense against Satan is No. 1. to bank on the merits of the death of Christ, No. 2. to be active in witnessing, and No. 3. to be willing to make any sacrifice, including death...

161. {V.11} And they overcame [conquered] him by the blood of the Lamb [Christ], and the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives to the death. {See Proverbs 18:10; Hebrews 2:14-15; & 4:12; Colossians 2:15}. {V.11} concerns the victory of the Christians over Satan, this is different from the victory of Michael and his angels. The Saint's victory is threefold: the blood of the Lamb (their justification before God on that bases), their testimony and (faithful witness) to the work and grace of God, and their willingness to be martyred (loved not their lives to the death, as is in the above verse) for their faith. No wonder heaven is called upon to rejoice. No earth- originated faith could accomplish this. {See Revelation 2:10-11; & Proverbs 18:10}.

162. {V.12} Therefore rejoice [and be glad], you heavens, and you that dwell in them. [But] Woe [how horrible it will be] to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil [and all his wicked angels are cast to the earth and] is come down to you, having great [fierce, furious] wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time [3 & 1/2 years before he is cast into hell]. {But afterwards- See Isaiah 44:23; & 49:13}.

163. {V.13} And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman [Israel] which [had] brought forth the man child [Christ]. {Revelation 12:7-13}."

164. The Tribulation Period is called "the time of Jacob's (Israel's) trouble. Right in the middle of the Tribulation Period, Satan will be cast down to this earth and he will pour out all his fury on the Jewish people, and yes, even likewise to the rest of the earth also. One reason for his fury is because he knows that since Christ is a Jew, if he can destroy all the Jews there would be no reason for Christ to return to the earth, but the Bible makes clear that Satan will fail his wicked endeavors.

165. When Satan is cast out of heaven it will be because of the war that takes place in Heaven between Satan and his wicked angels and Michael and those angels under him who follow after the Lord. Michael will overcome Satan and cast him and his wicked host down to the earth, never again will Satan and his followers be allowed to enter back into any part of the second or third Heavens. {See Jeremiah 30:7}. When Satan realizes that he can no longer return to the other Heavens, he will be furious, he will take his fury out on all earth dwellers, he will then energize the Antichrist even more so that the most wicked persecutions will follow.

166. An article written not long ago stated that minuscule silicone computer chips are now being put under the skin of animals so that if one becomes lost, a scanner can be waved over the chip and the owner can be immediately notified. This is also being done to cattle and other livestock. Incredibly, many companies are now planing the same thing for humans. With a hypodermic needle, this small chip can be placed under the your skin, the chip will have all the information on it that will tell the whole story of your past life.

167. This may be the way the mark of the beast will be implanted on those who will accept the mark. God's Word makes clear, that if you refuse the mark, you will be unable to buy or sell neither will you be able to acquire employment or hold a job of any kind. This is the reason we have stated that it is likely 90 percent will accept the mark .

168. The Antichrist will be a most remarkable potentate and be a remarkable leader, he, with the promise of a program of peace, will bring forth what finally will be great calamity, starvation, fear, destruction and death to this earth. Who is this man that is called the "beast" {Revelation 13:4}, "the man of sin" {2- Thessalonians 2:3}, "the son of perdition" {2- Thessalonians 2:3}? While our Bible doesn't reveal his name, it gives us many characteristics of this horrible monstrosity who will ultimately become the power in the revived Roman one world Government, the New World Order, which God calls the seven year Tribulation Period. What does our Bible say about this beast?

169. No. 1- He will come and present a marvelous program of national peace {Daniel 8:25}.
No. 2- He will stand up against Christ, the great true Prince {Daniel 8:25}.
No. 3- He will wear out the Saints of the most high God {Daniel 7:25}.
No. 4. He will come out from the same order of people who cut off [killed] Jesus Christ the Messiah {Daniel 9:26}.
No. 5- He will make a covenant between the nation of Israel and their enemies {Daniel 9:27}.
No. 6- He will break the covenant right in the middle of the Tribulation Period and triple his efforts in the annihilation and torture of the Israelites {Daniel 9:27}.

170. No. 7- He will pretend that he is the Son of God [The Christ] {2- Thessalonians 2:4}.
No. 8- He will set up his throne in the rebuilt temple in Jerusalem in order to prove to the world that he is the God that he says he is {2- Thessalonians 2:4}.
No. 9- He will do everything that the devil puts in his mind to do to appease Satan {2- Thessalonians 2:9}.

171. No. 10- God will allow him to bring strong delusion upon the entire earth {2- Thessalonians 2:11}.
No. 11- The beast will be wounded so that he will die, but he recovers and lives again {Revelation 13:14-25}.
No. 12- He blasphemes the name of God and God's Tabernacle and all the Saints that dwell in Heaven {Revelation 13:5-6}.
No. 13- The people will worship the beast {Revelation 13:4, & 8}.
No. 14- He will perform many miracles, such as bringing fire down from Heaven {Revelation 13:13-14}.

172. No.15- He will have the power to set up a talking computer-like-image, in the temple, that will cause those who refuse to worship the image to be killed {Revelation 13;14-15}.
No. 16- His orders are for all humanity to receive the mark of the beast {Revelation 13:16}.
No. 17- The beast's number will be 666, this will be his own number {Revelation 13:18}.
No. 18- He will cause a decree to be passed that no person may be able to buy or sell anything unless they have the Mark of the beast.

173. After you are left behind, by reading the above characteristics concerning the Antichrist {Revelation 13:18} you will posses the information that will be valuable in discerning the times in which you live. All the above details given above should give you the knowledge that the Bible is all true because you will see all these things come to pass with your own eyes. This is the purpose for what the Holy Spirit had in His mind when He had The Apostle John write the Book of Revelation. A person is very foolish who will ignore the predictions given in the above texts. Please take to heart now the text below, Scripture...

174. "And fear not them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear Him [God] which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell {Matthew 10:28}." [Only God can decide the destination of your eternal soul ... not Satan, Only God].

175.{V.35} Scripture ... "Who shall [ever] separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation [suffering, affliction of any kind], or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

176. {V.36} [Even] As it is written, for your sake we are killed all the day long; we are [regarded and] accounted as sheep for the slaughter {See Psalms 44:22}.

177. {V.37} No, in all these things we are more then conquerors [and we gain a surpassing victory] through Him [the Lord] that loved us.

178. {V.38} For I am persuaded [without a doubt], that neither death, nor life, nor [wicked] angels, nor principalities, nor powers [of demons or of people], nor things [impending and threatening that are] present, nor things to come,

179. {V.39} Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature [anything in all creation], shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is Christ Jesus our Lord {Romans 8:35; 37-39}."

180. These verses should certainly encourage you when you are left behind because you are going to live at a time when trouble will be an every day occurrence. The Antichrist will have great power, but he will not gain the ascendancy or the ability to rule simply by his own power. There will be a ferocious spiritual power that will give the Antichrist his capability. Scripture ...

181. {V.8} "And then shall that wicked [lawless one the Antichrist] be revealed [right after the Rapture, the one], whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit [and breath] of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming [back to this earth]: {See Isaiah 11:4}.

182. {V.9} Even him [the Antichrist and the false prophet], whose coming is after [and through] the working of Satan [and will be attended] with all power and signs and lying [pretended miracles, delusive marvels, all of them false and lying] wonders,

183. {V.10} And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness [and unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception] in them that perish [in Hell]; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved {2- Thessalonians 2:8-10}."

184. The true power accorded to the Antichrist is that of the devil himself. It is Satan who will finally raise up the beast who will be Satan's representative, who will organize the world against God. This world leader will gather the religions of the world in a great ecumenical faith that will then be invoked in the service of the Antichrist. This false cultic religion will ultimately be Satanism. {Revelation 13:4-5}. Therefore, Satan produces a program of global worship in which the people over the whole earth falls into the trap of the Antichrist and accepts him as God.

185. While the Antichrist will appear to be very successful for a short time, his success will not continue. He will rule the world and fill himself with unyielding pride that will lead him finally to make war on God Himself. Will he succeed? of course not. What about the man of sin? [Satan will control him].

186. "... Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down to you, having great wrath [anger], because he knows that he has but a short time {Revelation 12:12}."

187. Part of his anger is because he is aware that he in just [3 & 1/2 years] will be cast into hell. He is cast down from the second heaven and from the atmosphere of this earth to the ground. This will take place right at the end of the first [3 & 1/2 years] of the Tribulation Period. Even though Satan gives this man great power look what happens to him...

188. No. 1- He and his power will be destroyed by the brightness of the return of the Lord Jesus {2- Thessalonians 2:8}.

No. 2- The Saints of the Lord will share in the final defeat of this false Christ at the return of Jesus {Revelation 17:14}.
