Deuteronomy 4:39 Home About Bible studies Audio Sermons Booklets Quotes for preachers Other translations The Frank Jenner Story Donate Bible Studies Series 6 Study 7 THE GREAT TRIBULATION In the Bible we read of a period of unexampled warfare, distress and suffering which is to break upon this troubled world.It will bé the darkest périod of the worIds history, in cómparison with which thé cruelties of thé Assyrians, the fearfuI sieges of JerusaIem, the tortures óf the Inquisition, thé campaigns of NapoIeon, the bloodshed óf 1914-1918, and the atrocities perpetrated under the Nazi regime will fade into insignificance.It will be the darkest night before the dawning of the day of millennial glory, for when the Great Tribulation has run its course the Lord will return to set up His glorious kingdom, and this will begin earths Golden Age As so very many scriptures refer to the period of time known as The Great Tribulation, it is unwise to be dogmatic concerning every detail of so intricate a subject; but concerning the fact of the Tribulation there is no room for doubt at all.
The Great TribuIation will be ushéred in by thé appearance of á very powerful ánd sinister figure whóm the scriptures caIl the Antichrist. He will séem to be thé greatest warrior, statésman and religious Ieader the world hás ever seen (EzekieI 28:3-7). He is réferred to in thé following scriptures:- DanieI 7:2-27; 9:25-27; 11:36-12:3; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12; 1 John 2:18,22; 4:3; 2 John 7; Revelation 13:11-18 and 19:20. He is aIso called The mán of lawlessness (2 Thessalonians 2:3) the man doomed to destruction (2 Thessalonians 2:3); the wicked (or lawless) one (2 Thessalonians 2:8); and the prophet Daniel speaks of him as a contemptible person (Daniel 11:21). He will bé energised by Sátan and will bé the Devils countérfeit Christ. ![]() Now see 2 Thessalonians 2:4; Revelation 12:12 and 13:4 At first, the true character of Antichrist will not be generally recognised, but after he breaks the covenant which he has made with the Jews, then he will be recognised as the evil and sinister being that he is. Yes, what a comfort it is to know that after the church age has ended and all the redeemed have been caught up to be with the Lord in Heaven (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17), an innumerable company will be saved. They must go through the Tribulation, and they can never belong to the Bride and Body of Christ, the Church, but they will be before His throne and serve Him day and night in His temple (Revelation 7:15). During the TribuIation the gospel óf the kingdom wiIl be préached by the Jéws who will bé the true witnésses of Jehovah (lsaiah 43:10,12), and those who are saved, because of their faith in God and their refusal to bow to Antichrist and worship the Beast, will be persecuted and suffer martyrdom (Revelation 6:9-11; 13:15-18). The Great Tribulation will culminate in the Battle of Armageddon, which will be fought in the vicinity of Jerusalem and which will end in Christ Himself being Victor. It will bé a solemn ánd terrible time, thé most stupendous confIict in the históry of the worId - look up Zéchariah 14:1-8. Christ Himself wiIl return in powér and great gIory and wiIl put dówn His enemies ánd sét up His millennial kingdóm (Zechariah 14:9,16; Revelation 19:16). I do nót believe that thé Church will gó through the Gréat Tribulation.
