A Sequence of End Time Events

The popular attitude toward prophetic teaching is skepticism.

God has revealed a great deal about the past and the future.

Much has been set before us in plain, unmistakable terms which God wants us to know.

Review Important Distinctions As we read and study we must

determine: What is God saying about Israel? What is God saying about the Church? What is God saying about the World?

God Has a Plan God made a decree to have a glorious

Kingdom. Num 14.21 He made man with free will & gave him

dominion . Gen 1.26 Because of His foreknowledge, God

prepared for man’s failure , and promised to provide a Redeemer so

that the glorious kingdom could still be achieved. Eph 1.3-7

He promised Abraham that his family would be the avenue of the Savior/Messiah. Gen 12

He said that the Israelites would someday enjoy the blessings of His Kingdom. Isa 11

The tribe of Judah and King David were promised that “a king forever” would come from his descendants. 2 Sam 7

About 1000 years later the promised Messiah-King lived, died, rose from the grave, and returned to heaven to wait for His Kingdom. The Gospels

Israel rejected their Messiah but God wasn’t finished with them. Rom 11.25

Meanwhile, the message of salvation began to spread to all nations as He built His Church.

What did He promise the Church?

John 14 He’ll be back 1 Cor 15 We’ll be changed 1 Thes 4 He’ll call us up Rev 20.6 We’ll reign with Him

As the Church age draws to a close He will begin to bring Israel back to Himself.

Then they will be ready to receive their King and be a part of His Kingdom on Earth.

So what will happen in God’s continuing Plan?

The Church must faithfully preach the Gospel. Acts 1.8

World conditions, especially in the Middle East, will fall in line with prophesied events. Mt 24

Rapture of the Church into heaven 1 Thes 4.13-17

Rewards for Christians at the Judgment seat of Christ 2 Cor 5.10

Back on Earth The 7 year Tribulation will begin. A worldwide kingdom will arise led by

Satan thru the Antichrist. He will make peace with Israel and then

turn against them. Betrayed by the Anti-Christ, Israel will

begin to look for their True Messiah. The Battle of Armageddon Rev 16.16;

19.19

The Second Advent Rev 19; Mt 24.29-31 Satan Bound in the abyss Rev 20.1 The Sheep-Goat Judgment Mt 25.31-44 The 1000 year Kingdom Age Isa 11.1-9;

Dan 2.44; Rev 20.4-6 Satan Released Rev 20.7-9 Great White Throne Judgment Rev 20.10-15 Eternity

So What?

Titus 2.11-13 1 John 3.1-3

indisputable truths

God is faithful Ps 89.1-4, 30-37 God is sovereign Ps 89.5-10 God is merciful Ps 89.11-15 God’s revelation is accurate and

understandable

A-Millennialism (300’s)Spiritual rather than literal kingdomChrist returns at some point and eternity

begins Post-Millennialism (1800’s)

Thanks to the church, the world grows progressively better

The church presents the kingdom to Jesus when He arrives
