What are the signs of Jesus Coming ?
The Period of Sorrows
|
|
The Period of Sorrow is the era of great sorrows to Christians for many of God's children (Christians) will be deceived. False christs (self-professed or ‘anointed’ e.g. Jezebel in Rev 3:20), who are also well-known and highly esteemed Christian teachers and leaders (Pharisees), will mislead Christians to doctrines based on worldly wisdom or doctrines of demons (destructive heresies). These doctrines destroy the faith of Christian in God, in Jesus’ complete work on the cross and in His Word and Promises. They will not believe in the coming of the Lord in the last days, for they will be entangled in the things of the world because they love this world and the things therein.

|
The Period of Sorrows is divided into 3 sections.
|
|
1. The Beginning of Sorrows
|
|
And Jesus, answering them, began to say: "Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am He,' and will deceive many. But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows." Mark 13:5-8 (NKJ)
|
This will be a period where false Christs (these are depraved Christian leaders) were very successful in deceiving Christians and God has to destroyed His fallen annointed servants in the 3rd World War, with earthquakes, pestilences, etc. These will be found in Matt 24:4-8; Mark 13:5-8; Luke 21:8-11a, 9-24. Having cleansed His church of these depraved leaders and their destructive heresies, revived Christians will be able to trust God and our Lord Jesus in the coming fiery trials of the 5th Seal
|
The 3rd World War will conclude after the Antichrist had conquered Israel and Jerusalem. The Antichrist will be honoured as the prophet of God by the Muslims for he conquered Jerusalem for them. He will immediately declared that Jews, Christians and Muslims are brothers for they worship the same God, the God of Abraham. To strenghten and please the Muslims he will tell them that Allah has given them Jerusalem so that Allah can come down to dwell amongst them in the temple of God. Thus, the Muslims will remove the Al-aqsa mosque and the Dome on the Rock to prepare the site of this temple. The Jews will be tasked to build the temple of God. This will please (deceive) both the Jews and the Christians tremendously. They will have peace all over the world and especially in Israel. {Note:-Allah is the God of Abraham only according to the Muslims. Yahweh (or Allah to the Christians) is the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob}

2. The Great Martyrdom
|
|
"But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons. You will be brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake. But it will turn out for you as an occasion for testimony. Therefore settle it in your hearts not to meditate beforehand on what you will answer; for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist. You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But not a hair of your head shall be lost. By your patience possess your souls." Luke 21:12-19 (NKJ)
|
Watchmen (godly Christians) will warn Christians that he is indeed `the Antichrist', they will betray these watchmen.
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. II Th 2:3-4 (NKJ)
Misled Christians will betray these godly watchmen (as trouble-makers for stirring hatred and wars amongst the various religions) and will deliver them to the authority for martyrdom.
|
We thank God for His infinite wisdom to use the martyrdom to evangelise the whole world and reaching every tribe in every nation.
|
|
"But watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them. And the gospel must first be preached to all the nations. But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit." Mark 13:9-11 (NKJ)
|
When announcement was made that there will be crucifixion at a particular time and date of the rebellious Christians, who preached that Jesus is God and say that He will protect and deliver them from all problems, the whole world will turn on the TV to enjoy this crucifixion. The Holy Spirit will then use the mouths of the Marytrs to preach the everlasting gospel and everyone will hear the gospel. This maytrdom will continue until the completion of the temple of God.
|
This will be a time of martyrdom, and thank God that these overcomers who died as martyrs were completely committed to the Lord. During their tortures, their physical bodies were completely possessed by the Holy Spirit and their mouths were used by the Holy Spirit to preach the everlasting Gospel. All the unbelievers, who were told of the tortures of Christians (trouble-makers, who refuse to submit to the one world religion and to live in peace and harmony with others) in advance, will watch these events either on TV or live. They were expecting the tortures inflicted to produce exciting, horrible and great pains resulting in the Christians' plea for mercy or submission. Instead they saw the tortured Christians rejoicing and praising God and with the faces glowing while they preach the Gospel of salvation with boldness and power.

|
"And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born? Parthians and Medes and ....... visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabs-- we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God." Acts 2:8-11 (NKJ)
|
Everyone will hear the gospel in their own tongue (or dialect). In this way the whole world including all tribes and tongues will hear the gospel. Hallelujah, for our Lord God reigns. Within days or weeks, this everlasting Gospel will reach all souls on earth.
|
"But he who endures to the end shall be saved." Matt 24:13 (NKJ)
"See, I have told you beforehand." Matt 24:25 (NKJ)
|
This is the time when Christians are tested by God. In order to receive great rewards in heaven, they have to believe God and to live His words out by enduring the coming persecutions and martyrdoms.
|
But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra-- what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me. Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 2 Tim 3:10-12 (NKJ)
|
|
This martyrdom will continue until the completion of the temple of God,
after that will come the Great Trbulation or Great Deception.

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. 2 Pet 2:1-3
