According to The Commander in Chief......
It will be the worst time in in human history
"For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be."
It will be a limited time.
"for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened."
It will be a discernible time.
“So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel—
The tribulation is not 7 years. I went to Bible college where the tribulation is taught as Daniel's last week or 7 but I could never figure out how the last week was shot into the future. It isn't. All of Daniel's weeks are accomplished. The temple was already made desolate. Now the original says time, times, time, and a half, not months like some modern translations. This doctrine has affected Bible translation. I personally believe that world war 1&2 were the horses and that we are living in a tribulation that could last 1,000 years. Look at the tribulation as a list of historical events over time. Especially see how it divides time times time and a half. Times meaning several separate times. Revelations is the prophecy of all great suffering in the future. There's no biblical proof the tribulation is 7 years. It's not the big giant people make it out to be. I say we've seen all the tribulation we're gonna see. Don't be afraid.
the mention of the great tribulation is about the desolation of Israel when Jerusalem was besieged by Rome after Jesus ascended to heaven in 67-70 ad
“And when
ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, ( 67-70ad) then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
Then let them which are in Judæa flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto. For
these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. And
they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations dispersion ) and
Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.”
Luke 21:20-24 KJV
a there’s an end to the ot covenant because they defiled it and killed Jesus the messiah
“And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.”
Daniel 9:26 KJV
That’s the abomination of desolation them rejecting and killing Jesus
“Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: and when the time of the fruit drew near,
he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. ( the early prophets sent to Israel )
Again, he sent
other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. ( latter prophets sent tonisrsel )
But
last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. ( Jesus the messiah ) But
when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.
When the Lord therefore of the vineyard
cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him,
He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures,
The stone which the builders rejected, The same is become the head of the corner: This is the Lord's doing, And it is marvellous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you,
The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.”
Matthew 21:33-43 KJV
It’s why Jerusalem hasn’t had a tenple on two thousand years and why a Muslim mosque now sits on the temple mound where Gods temple used to stand and on this mosque it states “ God has no son “
it’s because Jerusalem is desolate has been since 70 ad because they rejected the messiah this result happened beginning wi th Jerusalem
“and he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”
Malachi 4:6
at he tribulation on the world began wo th th e destruction of Jerusalem nd followed th e Jews into the world as the ot promised would happen its just fulfillment of what the ot says
