Time Is Running Out
THERE’S ONLY ONE RELIABLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUTURE. THE BIBLE
Isaiah 46:9 I am God, and there is no one like Me, Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things which have not been done,
Matt 16:2 “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ 3 “And in the morning, ‘There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Do you know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but cannot discern the signs of the times?
WE CAN SEE THINGS COMING.
Heb 10:24 and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, 25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.
Ezek. 30:3 “For the day is near, Even the day of the LORD is near; It will be a day of clouds, A time of doom for the nations.
Mal. 4:5 “Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD.
EVERYTHING PAUL COMMUNICATED HAD THE END IN MIND.
1 Cor 10:11 Now these things happened to them as an example, and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.
TIME,NUMBERS AND EVENTS... SHOWS US A DISCTINCTION BETWEEN THE RAPTURE AND THE 2NDCOMING.
There is a 7 year time period rapidly approaching
Jeremiah 30:7 “The time of Jacobs trouble”
Daniel 12:1 “A time of distress such as has never occurred”
Revelation 3:10 “The hour of testing”
Matthew 24:21 “A time of great tribulation”
Revelation 7:14 “The great tribulation”
2 PET 2: 9 Then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,
Dan 9:24 “Seventy weeks (490yrs) have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place. 25 So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks (49) and sixty-two weeks (434); it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress.
49 + 434 = 483 (69 WEEKS) LEAVING 1 WEEK LEFT (TRIB)
26 Then after the sixty-two weeks (483 Yrs) the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined. (THE CHURCH)
27 And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week (7 yrs), but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate.”
1Th. 5:2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 3 While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like birth pangs upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief; 5 for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness; 6 so then let us not sleep as others do, but let us be alert and sober. 7 For those who sleep do their sleeping at night, and those who get drunk get drunk at night.
8 But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 Pet 3:3 Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation.” 7 But the present heavens and earth by His word are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. 8 But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

WHEN THE CHURCH IS TAKEN OFF THE EARTH YOU HAVE 7 yrs OF OLD COVENANT TIME.
THE TRIBULATION WHICH WOULD START AFTER BEGINS WHEN THE ANTICHRIST SIGNS A 7 yr COVENANT WITH ISRAEL.
THE ANTICHRIST CANNOT COME ON THE SCENE UNTIL THE CHURCH IS TAKEN OFF THE EARTH. (2 Thess 2:6-8)
1 Thess 4:16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.
