What is the next great event in God’s timeline? The last prophecies that have been fulfilled are, the return of the Jews to Israel; Hebrew will again be the national language; the land or Israel would prosper; the shekel would be brought back; there would be wars and rumors of war; many will claim to be Christ, and the abomination of desolation (the Dome of the Rock) sits on God’s holy mountain.
Jews around the world are again falling under persecution, even in America; there are now 27 global conflicts going on between nations, kids have little respect for their parents, and people are turning politically and religiously on each other like never before. Believers in the Bible are leaving because of their love for the world and things.
Is the next great event the ushering in of the Great Tribulation? If so, what small details have to take place shortly before it begins? I'll give you a clue: It has to do with two pairs, and one larger number.
What's coming next?

Re: What's coming next?
Post #2One of the next events is
Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the departure comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction, he who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshiped; so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.
2 Thess. 2:3-4
And unfortunately I believe one of the reasons why "the son of destruction" will be successful is that people don't know what is said in the Bible and rather follow the doctrines of men than what Jesus and God has said.

Re: What's coming next?
Post #4It appears that "they will say peace and safety" after the catching away of the church, 1 Thessalonians 4:17. In the rapture, Jesus will not come down to the earth; the church will be caught up to meet him in the air. Then taken to the place he has prepared for his bride in heaven. It's after the rapture, the pagan world will think there will be "Peace and safety," but sudden destruction will come upon them. The destruction will come from the antichrist and his armies. They will rule the earth for 3 1/2 years. when the Lord does return, he will come onto the Mount of Olives from where he left, Zechariah 14:4.JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Fri Apr 18, 2025 9:16 amThat's already happened.1213 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 18, 2025 4:17 amOne of the next events is

Re: What's coming next?
Post #7I agree, corruption began with the Catholic church and has excelled over time. The next major corruptions began about 75 years ago when all these new Bibles came on the market. Jude pretty much describes the mess or all these antichrists. Jude wrote, they chang the word of God into words of fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds: trees whose fruit withered, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame, wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever."JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Sun Apr 20, 2025 4:07 amThe "man of lawlessness " represents the apostate Christian churches that slowly corrupted true Christianity from the 2nd Century onwards.1213 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 20, 2025 3:23 amPlease tell what do you mean with that?JehovahsWitness wrote: ↑Fri Apr 18, 2025 9:16 amThat's already happened.1213 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 18, 2025 4:17 amOne of the next events is

So what's coming nexr? One man is coming who is not an antichrist, but is, "The Antichrist," the man of sin, the son of perdition, the lawless one. He will open his mouth in blaspheme against God, he will make war with the Jews, and he will continue for forty-two months, 3 1/2 years. And his High Priest will follow after him, a man of miracles: he will build an image of the beast on God's holy mountain, Mt. Moriah, and he will cause all, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark on their right hand, or in their foreheads.

Re: What's coming next?
Post #8These things will happen, and actually have happened, and some symbolically. It does not involve one man and his high priest. The Lawless One is the apostate churches of Christendom, the Catholic Church of which has set up its pope as a god (2Thess. 2:3,4), for example. Where do you see that "he" will make war with the Jews? Actually this has been happening since Christ was here on Earth. The Jews have suffered greatly at the hands of the Church down through history.placebofactor wrote: ↑Sun Apr 20, 2025 10:38 amI agree, corruption began with the Catholic church and has excelled over time.

What is the "image of the Beast?"
Do you not understand that the marks on people's foreheads and hands are symbolic of believing that this system of things will solve all problems, without God's Kingdom, and working for the governments of the world, or supporting them, instead of God's own Kingdom. There will be no literal receiving of the marks. We must watch what we think of and what we do for this demonic system of things, not glorifying it instead of God's government.

Re: What's coming next?
Post #9Sorry, I don't think that fits to the idea of a person entering God's temple and declaring himself to be the God.
