The bride of Christ-The Church in Heaven
Manage episode 354151604 series 3403940
Now we would all agree that the 'Day of the Lord' begins when Christ returns to the earth as King. This is after the rapture or the evacuation of the church
Luke 17:32-37 Remember Lot's wife. 33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. 34 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. 35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
2Cor 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
2Pe 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. And prophecy makes it quite clear that the King's first act is to deliver Jerusalem from the Beast's devastating onslaught in the final battle of the Armageddon war:
Zechariah 14:3-4 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 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.
Now given all the warnings of something momentous of the Lord's return
And the terror of that day,
The believers had clearly forgotten what Paul had already told them about their particular destiny.
As a result, they were starting to panic.
So Paul writes to reassure them that they will not be present on the earth when that day arrives!
And he does so by setting out for them a series of logical, interdependent future events (a prophetic 'chain' if you will).
He begins by saying: ".....that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction." (2 Thessalonians 2:3)
So, before the Lord returns to the earth, the Antichrist (man of lawlessness) must first make his appearance.
Again this is not before the rapture it is after the church leaves
But then something is preventing him from appearing: "And now you know it is the Holy Spirit who is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time" (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 alrea
