The Tribulation

 

THE GREAT TRIBULATION

 

What's going to happen

"For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. "Unless those days had been cut short, no life would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short" Matt. 24: 21,22.

 

What brought this on?

For two thousand years man has seen the grace of God. For the most part man has rejected the grace of God and will then see the wrath of God. "I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth" Luke 18:8.

 

The Holy Spirit will be gone

"For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way" 2 Thes. 2:7. "As it was in the days of Noah" Matt. 24:37. In those days God said, "My Spirit shall not always strive with man" Gen. 6:3. The world saw the wrath of God then and will again, when the Holy Spirit is not here restraining.

 

Believers will be gone

You are "the light of the world" Matt. 5:14. "Men love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil" John 3:19. "Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you" 1 John 3:13. You are a conviction to them. They will be glad we are gone. You are the salt of the earth" Matt. 5:15. Salt stings a sore. You convict the lost when you are around, if you haven't lost your savor. You are a restraining power in the world.

 

The antichrist will come

The beast, the false prophet, the antichrist will come read Rev. 13 for details. "And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God.... and to make war with the saints" (more on them later) Rev. 13:6, 7. Not only will the world see the wrath of the Holy God but the war of an unholy devil.

 

Don't give up

Some great things will happen during that awful time. Stay with us and hear the rest of the story. "A great multitude shall be saved" "All Israel shall be saved"

 

O dear people, WE WIN. We can win the :"prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus" Phil 3:14. We can win the race 1 Cor. 9:24-27. We can win souls, He who is wise wins souls" Prov. 11:30. We can win "crowns to lay at Jesus feet" Rev. 4:10. We can win the victory, "but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" 1 Cor 15:57. Let's do it shall we? I dare you!

 

Father, bless Your dear people and may we each finish our course with joy and a winner. In Jesus name

And I LOVE YOU DEARLY, all because of Calvary, sumner
