12. THE LAST 3½ YEARS: "THE GREAT TRIBULATION"


"Holy" places are closed or taken over!

All known pastors arrested and liquidated

And Rabbis & Mullahs & all believers

First arrested & then "religously cleansed!"

death by firingsquad, but probably worse!

When the Antichrist breaks the Covenant, takes away the daily sacrifice out of the Jewish temple & erects the Abomination of Desolation"--the speaking Idol of the Antichrist or "Image of the Beast"--Jesus warns us that then the "Great Tribulation" will begin and He advises us to flee! As it will be impossible by this time to buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast the 666 I.D.-chip-implants, God's People must be prepared to operate and survive without the system! During this "Great Tribulation" the AC will forbid all other religions than his own New World Religion, and will close down or take over all churches and "holy places." Any remaining political, organisational & financial power of God's people--the so-called kosher or holy people--will be scattered! But also of others! Many "good" traditional religious people and even many unbelieving "freedom-lovers" and "rebels against the system", will also be hounded and hunted down by the Devil-possessed Antichrist and his forces! Even though these don’t know the Lord, they will also reject the Antichrist, rebel against him and resist him, some even militarily! Millions of these kind of people will receive the Gospel and Salvation by faith during this "time of trouble" and thus join the Elect in the Rapture! The "holy people" who do not, may still be "blessed" enough that their lives may be "spared" and live through the Tribulation, the Coming of Christ, and even live through the Wrath of God and survive the Battle of Armageddon! Even though unsaved they'll be "blessed" because they'll come out unscathed on the other side, into the Millennium! Daniel 12:12
During the Tribulation, the socalled "7 Tribulation Trumpets" will herald several "woes" or judgments of God on the wicked persecutors of His Children, a time so terrible that the Bible says, "in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them" Rev 9:6. The Tribulation ends with the "7th Last Trump" at the return of Christ, when the "Mystery of God" shall be finished!
For the sake of His saved, born-again children--the socalled "Elect"--this Tribulation "shall be shortened" and last only 3½ lunar years, 42 lunar months or 1260 days to be exact, as they will be taken out of this World through the Rapture! During this time, also many Worldlings will begin to wake up and look for the coming of "some Christ!" That's why Jesus warns us explicitly to not be deceived by false Christs & false Prophets! Jesus will not come from some secret chamber or out of a desert! We will know exactly when He comes, because He will come as lightning from the sky shining from the East to the West. We'll first witness the "Resurrection of the dead in Christ", and then we'll rise together with them into the sky to meet Him in the air!--A phenomenon commonly known as the "Rapture!" God's people, His beloved children who know His Word, can't fall for these deceptions, but will partly stand up against the forces of evil, but also get away from them. Revelation promises that God will protect the Bride of Christ! She will flee into the Wilderness, "where she has a place prepared of God!" Rev 12:6

"For then shall be Great Tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Mat 24:21,22
"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which stands for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book." Daniel 12:1
"It shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he [the AC] shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished."
Daniel 12:7
"And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore [1260] days. Rev 12:6
"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." Rev 13:5
