When Will The Antichrist Come And The Rapture Happen For The Church Believers?
Question: Where are we standing in the end of end times Biblically? When will the Antichrist come and when will the Rapture happen for the Church believers?
Answer: Greetings in Jesus wonderful name!
We all know that we are in the end times, but according to the Bible the end times or "last days" has started with the introduction of Jesus Christ in to the world which has divided the world time in to AD which means 'in the year of the Lord' or from the year of the Lord' s birth and BC which means 'before Christ'.
Exactly two thousand years ago on the day of Pentecost, Peter the apostle shouted out to all people from everywhere in the world who came to Jerusalem to worship God saying, "17 'In the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out My Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams. 18 In those days I will pour out My Spirit even on My servantsmen and women alikeand they will prophesy. 19 And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and clouds of smoke. 20 The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and glorious day of the LORD arrives. 21 But everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.'" (Acts 2:17-21).
The word 'end times' is a contemporary word that is synonymous with 'last days'. If we take what "last days" as the day Peter the apostle started to prophesy in the Bible, then we must delve in to the prophecy a little deeper to understand what he has really spoken about. God has promised to pour out His Spirit upon all the people of the world who will believe and receive it, the outcome of the outpouring will cause prophecy, dreams and visions from the Lord according to the specific age groups. Chosen men and women of God will also receive the outpouring of the Spirit which will cause them to prophecy.
Have the above outpouring of the Spirit has been happening for the past two thousand years?
Not only it has been happening, but it has been increasing steadily likenever before in the last and this present new century.
So God starts a new phase in the end times saying, "In those days", thus when we see specific mighty men and women of God rising in the 19th and 20th Century like never before in the centuries behind, carrying the Gospel in to all the world to make an impact with signs, wonders and miracles accompanying them, we know this is not coming to an end instead it is going to increase further in to the next phase where God promised, "And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and clouds of smoke." Does this wonders in heaven means, God is going to show something unique in the heavens apart from the ususal to convince that we are hitting the end of last days or last of the last days? Yes, supernatural wonders of God in the heavens will be the open manifestation of the spirits operating from the heavenly realm being shown openly to the world that does not want to obey God but will never mind getting deceived. Thus we can see what the world is very much interested in, the UFO's abbreviated as Unidentified Flying Objects, a mysterious object seen in the sky for which it is claimed no orthodox scientific explanation can be found, often supposed to be a vehicle carrying extraterrestrials, which is also called as flying saucers piloted by aliens who are evil spirits, foo fighters.
UFO's and fallen angelic beings will manifest openly in the heavens with lying wonders in these last of the last days and end of the end times (2 Cor 11:14). It is indeed a deceptive vehicle of the last days where Satan himself will reveal himself to be a angel of light to people who will believe him, and will reveal himself like never before with "the coming of the lawless one" who will be doing everything "according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders" (2 Thess 2:9). In other words, it is indeed God's promise that UFO sightings will increase from the heavens above, which people will consider to be wonders of God but in fact will be a Satanic "lying wonder" which God will allow to test those on earth and seperate those who have love for the truth from those who do not, and thus it will cause the signs of God to be loosened on earth below, which will cause "blood and fire and clouds of smoke".
In other words, when deep darkness shall come upon the earth and thick darkness of evil deception upon the people, but for people of God the glory of the Lord will alight upon them through a never before seen outpouring upon all the flesh that will seek God wholeheartedly (Isa 60:1-2). All who will come to believe the Gospel by calling upon the name of the Lord Jesus will become saved in an instant (Rom 10:13).
Following a war in which as few as 100 of the smallest nuclear weapons are used in modern cities, urban firestorms would build for hours, producing millions of tonnes of black, sooty smoke. The name "blood moon" is also sometimes used for a Moon that appears reddish because of dust, smoke or haze in the sky. The soot from fires after a nuclear war would block sunlight from reaching Earth. So after a nuclear fallout, naturally the sun will become dark and the Moon will turn blood red.
We know that the only thing that has been kept silent from destroying the whole earth, is the nuclear bomb that just devastated a couple of cities in Japan during Second World War that brought United Nations Organisations to form a world peace and keep the world safe from destroying each other. We know that the blood shed through the fire that blasts the mushrooming clouds of smoke is a sign that God has allowed only in these end of end times, and all the leaders of the world in all the nations know that once someone starts to use a Nuclear Bomb, then it will be the end of the world because it will be a huge catastrophe that will be hard for the world to recover from.
But as of today, if someone could get the technology to prevent the enemies from firing the Nuclear and at the same time if they are able to use the Nuclear as a blackmail to those who will not submit to his agenda of a one world, then we know that such a person could only be the Antichrist who will be able to keep the world under the One World Government umbrella.
Ofcourse, blood shed like never before just like as in Noahic days is a sign that is happening around us through terrorism that is causing the whole world to become Nationalistic and Patriotic in electing leaders of the same taste (Gen 6:11; Luke 17:26). But at the same time, religious hate is increasing so much, that the world is getting ready to break from the 70 years of peace through United Nations Organisation. Some through deception have been placing themselves in a place of dictatorship as the Lord Himself has allowed in His soverignty to get the world ready for the regime of one world "peace and saftey" (1 Thess 5:3), these have been trying to take over the world of people and nations through their deceptive talk which divides people rather than uniting them even within the nation. In the midst of all the public unrest, the gospel fo the good news of Jesus Christ will be preached in all the nations of the world, and then Jesus predicted the start of "the end of the end times" (Matt 24:14).
Thus the period where Jesus says, ""Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand)" will be the starting time of 'The Great Tribulation' which will be the end (Matt 24:15).
For the Antichrist to enter the temple of the end time and start the 'abomination of desolation', first of all the Jews will need to have the temple in place for it to happen. Until then, the saga of peace and saftey will drive the world to become unified, but only through deception of the Nuclear Blackmail this could be possible. So even the world body (i.e.) UNO itself could let loose the dictators to fight each other for the world to come together under One Umberlla of a One World Government.
According to Jesus the very act of Antichrist entering the temple of the Jews and seating himself in it claiming himself to be god of the world will be the starting time of the end, and in three and half years from that time onwards, the day of Jesus Christ will come to take the world and rule it for a thousand years with a iron rod along with the Church from the New Heaven and New Earth (2 Thess 2:3-4).
The nation of Israel will be God's time piece for us to watch the end of the world unfold step by step before our eyes. Just when the Great Tribulation will start to spread from Jerusalem temple at the time of the 'abomination of desolation' to the ends of the earth through Antichrist, at that moment of time the Rapture of the Church will first happen and the world on earth will be left without Christians present in it, but the lukewarm and namesake and nominal religious christians will begin to realize that they have been deceived by the flood of filth from the world, they will stand for the Lord and many will become martyrs for the Lord (Rev 3:10; 12:15-17; 13:10).
We are almost there, now there are negotitations that are going to start for the third temple of the Jews to be built in Jerusalem through the President Trump. The world is going to enter in to the cocoon of the 'Peace and Saftey' saga that is going to take place for the three and half years, in which Antichrist will establish himself as the undisputable leader of the whole world.
I believe that the Antichrist will come as the leader of the European Union with the support of the Mystery Babylon of Rome which will unify the world religion and cause the world leader to prosper in his pursuit of a one world governance (Dan 9:27). The Siege of Jerusalem in the year 70 CE was the decisive event of the First Jewish–Roman War, in which the Roman army captured the city of Jerusalem and destroyed both the city and its Temple. The Arch of Titus, celebrating the Roman sack of Jerusalem and the Temple, still stands in Rome. So "the people of the prince" Antichrist who is to come who destroyed the city of Jerusalem and the sanctuary is none other than the Roman forces of the first century A.D.
The 7 years peace and saftey deal that will make the nation of Israel to build the third temple will be done only with the major hand of the influence of Antichrist. You can almost hear about another deal that is being pushed by the American government of Trump, to cause peace and saftey to happen in Israel, and therefore to the whole world, as it is being closely watched by all the prophecy experts around the world of what it will bring?
But I can assure you according to the Word of God, without a major deal done by the European Union negotiations, Trump will be failing to find the peace between the nation of Israel and Palestinians. In other words, someone who will rise as the executive peace man between the world of Muslims and Christians from the European Union will only be able to make a deal between Israel and Palestine to give them both a piece of Jerusalem and cause them both to live side by side in autonomy when God has clearly spoken against nations dividing Jerusalem in His Word (Zech 12:3; Joel 3:1-2; Gen 17:8; 15:18). For that to happen, the European Union must be able to supercede and influence the United Nations Organisations over United States Of America.
This is where in the present Scenario of Trump's America First will play a major role in influening the UN permanent council member's of France, Russia and China to come together as one to prevail over the US and its newly married ally the Great Britain which has divorced itself from the EU already.
What will happen to the present leader of the world, the United States Of America, you can read it in the following post I have titled as, 'Is The U.S. Discovered In The Bible?'.
So what are you coming to say about the nuclear fallout, you may be asking, as for now the 'Peace and Saftey' saga of the United Nations Organisations will prevail over the voice of all other nations until the 'abomniation of desolation', after which the Rapture of the Church will happen. Once this is over and done, the 'Great Tribulation' will increase in intensity all over the world through Antichrist taking over the world forcefully through bloodshed, and at that time the nuclear fallout will happen in such a way that the sun will become dark and the moon will become blood red through him using nuclear weapons upon the nations that will oppose his rulership. Thank God this nuclear blackmail of Antichrist will soon end with coming of the Lord Jesus to reign on the earth for a thousand years along with the Church (Matt 24:29-31; Zech 13:8; Rev 6:8). Praise the Lord!
Few year or years or maximum a decade can clearly tell where we will be standing in the end of end times and when the end will start. As we have discussed earlier, things are boiling up among the nations of the world, and the pressure to build the third temple is already up, and President Trump is in to it full swing to make this happen. But before trying to break in to this deal, he is trying to make sure the second term comes for him to fulfill his promises that He will be making, might be in his runupto election in the guise of peace in the middle east, or even he might go to the extent to break the bottle neck of the Milleniums using his genius even before that, trying to remove the roadblock to peace which is dividing the city of Jerusalem and building the third temple in the temple mount of Israel. For one to get done, the other will have to be negotiated. Means, in trying to build the third temple and forward the agenda of the Jews on the temple mount, he might give up certain portion of Jerusalem City to the Palestenians to let them go with it as the capital of their nation of Palestine.
In fact I believe Trump knowing this as the fact, has played in to the mind of the Arab world and Palestine in declaring Jerusalem as the undivided eternal capital of the nation of Israel. So from a position of strength, he will be trying to defend and cause a breakthrough to come in building the third temple for the Jews and the nation of Israel.
So President Trump may be trying his best, but as I have earlier said about the executive EU Antichrist, with out this Antichrist leader of Europe negotiating with the Arabs, the world will not agree to a lasting peace which Trump is trying to bring, but at the most Trump may be able to make a breakthrough in the peace deal up to a certain extant no matter how much forward he might take the deal to. May be even if Trump builds the temple, only the Antichrist will be the one who could make a world deal of 'Peace and Security' on behalf of all nations with Israel for 7 years after it, to open up the Jewish temple to the world as a unfying place where all could meet in unison of mind and heart to worship the god of Universe as they will call him yet as through sacrifice.
Let us as Christians know that the time for the Church is running out day by day, because the spirit of Antichrist is spreading in all the world causing a direct religious persecution to rise against it like never before, but we must not stop preaching the gospel to all nations and people groups by all means and methods, because once these above things start day by day we will be moving towards the day of Rapture of all the saints of the Church (Matt 24:14-15). The 'peace and saftey' agenda will be a very deceitful period for the falling away to happen in the Church (1 Thess 5:1-6; 2 Thess 2:3), after which the taking up of the Church will happen just after the 'abomination of desolation' when the Antichrist will break the covenant made and will sit in the temple to declare himself as god and then try to take control of the whole world from there (2 Thess 2:1-8).
Lawlessness through pornography, violence unleased through religious hate, murders for adulterous jealousy, same sex marriage, abortion of babies, live-in relationship without marriage, self-love promotion through masturbation, religion without repentance, etc...will be the order of the day before the day of Rapture, Jesus has warned all of the born-again Christians to be watchful and prayerful to overcome the flood of the water of Satan which is drowning the world with its power of sin. Those who obey Jesus will become a partaker of his nature and will be partaker in the Rapture too as a reward for their obedience towards a repentant life (2 Peter 1:3-4; Luke 21:36). Those who will be left behind and come to realize their folly of a lukewarm and namesake nominal Christian life will wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb through faith and will take the route of martyrdom to come out of the Great Tribulation straight in to heaven where God and the Lamb will be residing in glory and honor and power (Rev 7:14; 13:8-10). Hallelujah! Glory To God!
We can almost hear the footsteps of Jesus Christ near the door of heaven and the Trumpet sound of the arch angels along with him! Maranatha. Come Lord Jesus! O Lord Come!
Much Blessings....
