The Tribulation

THE WORK AND

MINISTRY OF THE ANTICHRIST

SATAN IS

KICKED OUT

Revelation 13

(Rev 13:18) Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the

number of the beast: for it is the number of a man;

and his number is Six hundred threescore and

six.

A. The Point of studying

revelation

(Rev 1:3) Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy,

and keep those things which are written therein: for the

time is at hand.

B. Prophecy

is unfolding before our

eyes

(2Ti 3:1-5) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of

their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers,

disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection,

trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of

pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from

such turn away.

C. Polarizing effects

of the rapture.

(Rev 4:1-2) After this I looked, and, behold, a door was

opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it

were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up

hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne

was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.

(1Th 4:13-17) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them

which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,

even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto

you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of

the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then

we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the

clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

(1Co 15:51-52) Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a

moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:

for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall

be changed.

(1Th 5:9) For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord

Jesus Christ,

I. The Description of a Savior (Anti Christ)

NOTES

In the mist of this chaos a savior appears on the scene:

• The Jews will believe that he is the Messiah

• Muslim will believe that he is Islam’s long awaited Maitreya

• The Professing Christians (1 billion people) will believe that this man is Christ in the Flesh (post-millennial)

• The Atheist will not care who he is, they will follow him as long as he can stabilize the economy.

(Rev 13:1-2) And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast

rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his

horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the

mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat,

and great authority.

(Rev 6:2) And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering,

and to conquer.

(2Co 11:13-15) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming

themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for

Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be

transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall

be according to their works.

“The Streets of our cities are in turmoil, our universities are

filled with students that rebelling and rioting.

Communists are seeking to destroy our

Country, and the republic is in danger, yes danger within and without. We need law and order, without Law and order our nation

will not survive” Adolf Hitler 1932

“As a Christian I have no duty to

allow myself to be cheated, but I

have the duty to be a fighter for

truth and justice.”

Adolf Hitler

“Great liars are also great

magicians. “Adolf Hitler

“How fortunate for governments that the people they administer

don't think. “Adolf Hitler
