Hi, all.
Do you want to know why I don’t believe in a pre-tribulation rapture? ….because I believe Scripture tells me that there is no such thing. I think it is very important that Christians understand the chronological order of events. The Antichrist will come BEFORE Jesus Christ returns. He will have all power to perform signs and wonders and miracles in the sight of men, and many will be deceived.
Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
- 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4,9-10 (NKJV)
"But he who endures to the end shall be saved. "Therefore when you see the 'abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" (whoever reads, let him understand), "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. "Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There!' do not believe it. "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. "Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
- Matthew 24:13,15-16,21,23,30 (NKJV)
