Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Like before the flood the people were not heeding the warning of Noah that a flood was coming.
And the ark was being built for a while that was testimony that Noah was serious about the flood.
They were carrying on not concerned about Noah and the ark being built.
It will be like that before Christ comes back that the world will not listen to the warning of the saints to the world.
But they will carry on business as usual until it springs upon them like the flood.
Once the rain started coming it was too late for repentance at the flood.
Once the resurrection happens it is too late for the world to repent.
God is giving the world 7 years to have their way to go against the truth and then He will end sin on earth.
The first 3.5 years the antichrist will push the agenda of the new age christianity as he prepares the world to accept him when he claims to be God.
Paul said the gathering of the saints unto Christ cannot happen until there is a falling away first and the man of sin claims to be God in the middle of the 7 years.
Which the falling away first is the response of the world to the truth which they stopped the preaching of the truth on a world wide level.
At the end of the first 3.5 years it is the falling away first when the transgressors have come to the full.
God will then allow the antichrist to rule over them.
Now the resurrection can happen.
Salvation is available for the first 3.5 years so the saints will remain on earth to represent the truth.
The last 3.5 years is the tribulation.
The tribulation is not for the world but for the saints because God is giving the world 7 years to have their way to go against the truth so the saints will remain on earth.
If the saints are not on earth how can the truth be represented.
The wrath of God is not in the 7 years period because God is giving them their way.
The trumpets are warnings to the world to get right with God but after the 6th trumpet they do not so He gives them the antichrist to rule over them and the deception will happen.
The last 3.5 years the beast makes war against the saints and prevails against them.
And they are given in to his hands for 3.5 years.
And when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people all things are finished.
Which then comes the end when Jesus shall deliver up the kingdom and then put down the world which the world does not continue.
When the resurrection happens then the heathen do not continue.
So the resurrection cannot happen before a 7 years period for then there would be no 7 years.
Genesis 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
It would seem like the only way they could be that corrupt concerning all the people except Noah and his family is if the fallen angels corrupted them.
1 Timothy 1:1
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron.
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The new age christianity that interprets the Bible and religions according to the occult and evolution, and people will evolve to be spiritual, and greater, and Jesus became an ascended master, and there is no personal God, but they honor the God of forces the power of the Cosmos, and the New Age Christ is the final teacher.
The time will come that people will not want to hear the truth of the Bible but according to the new age.

The esoteric meaning of Lucifer.
There are comments on the World Wide Web claiming that the Lucis Trust was once called the Lucifer Trust.
Such was never the case.
However, for a brief period of two or three years in the early 1920’s, when Alice and Foster Bailey were beginning to publish the books published under her name, they named their fledgling publishing company “Lucifer Publishing Company”.
By 1925 the name was changed to Lucis Publishing Company and has remained so ever since.Both “Lucifer” and “Lucis” come from the same word root, lucis being the Latin generative case meaning of light.
The Baileys' reasons for choosing the original name are not known to us, but we can only surmise that they, like the great teacher H.P. Blavatsky, for whom they had enormous respect, sought to elicit a deeper understanding of the sacrifice made by Lucifer.
Alice and Foster Bailey were serious students and teachers of Theosophy, a spiritual tradition which views Lucifer as one of the solar Angels, those advanced Beings Who Theosophy says descended (thus “the fall”) from Venus to our planet eons ago to bring the principle of mind to what was then animal-man.
In the theosophical perspective, the descent of these solar Angels was not a fall into sin or disgrace but rather an act of great sacrifice, as is suggested in the name “Lucifer” which means light-bearer.
They believe Lucifer is an alien, and a god, that gave mankind intelligence, and will cause them to evolve.
Alice Bailey was a fundamental christian but received an occult interpretation from a Tibetan monk.
She is the biggest prophet of the new age.
They set up a website to promote her books and teachings.
She said there is an inner circle and an outer circle of the occult and the inner circle is the true church.
She was married to a Freemason that agreed with her teachings and philosophy.
Which Freemasonry has an inner circle that is in to occult teachings.
When God gives the world their way for 7 years the devils can work in the world more than before to deceive the world.
For the first 3.5 years the antichrist is influenced by the devil.
When the first 3.5 years is over war will break out in heaven and the devils will be cast to earth.
Which the earth becomes the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
Which the earth becomes their holding cell.
The devils will deceive all people who do not love the truth to follow the antichrist which is the strong delusion God will send them.
Like the days of Noah where the fallen angels interacted with mankind causing God to flood the world the fallen angels will interact with mankind to deceive the world to follow the antichrist which God will end sin on earth.
For the 7 years period the world has their way and the saints on earth warning them they continue on not giving heed to them like at the flood.
