WHERE CHRISTIANITY IS C-O-O-L
LEFT BEHIND
HOW MUCH LONGER?
It is SON-derful to see you have ventured this far ... Make sure you
check the scripture that is being shared in this study as to confirm
TRUTH.
As you learned, the Great Tribulation will last for 3½ years. The book
of Revelation says this in a number of different ways.
|
Revelation 11:2-3
But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure
it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city
shall they tread under foot
forty
and two months. And I will
give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a
thousand two hundred and threescore
days, clothed in sackcloth. |
|
Revelation 12:6
And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place
prepared of God, that they should feed her there
a thousand two hundred and
threescore days. |
|
Revelation 12:14
And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she
might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is
nourished for
a time, and times, and half a time,
from the face of the serpent. |
|
Revelation 13:5
And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and
blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. |
Okay ... Let's say that you've
confirmed the TRUTH and finally admitted that there are
Christians being hidden on earth during the End Times as to replenish
the Earth as it is written, and let's say that you were chosen as one
to stay behind for whatever reason God saw fit and let's say that you
have endured the 3½ years of being hidden in the wilderness to be
tested to be sure you're worthy ... Once 3½ years has passed, everyone
will no doubt be anxious to come out of hiding ...
HOWEVER ... There's a little longer than
3½ years until it's safe to come out.
The book of Daniel explains:
|
Daniel 12:9-12
And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and
sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and
made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and
none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall
understand. And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall
be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up,
there shall be a thousand two
hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh
to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and
stand in thy lot at the end of the days. |
Let us see if we understand this ... There are 1260
days of Antichrist's reign of terror, but what is the 1290 days all
about, and why do Christians have to wait until 1335 days have passed
before they come out of hiding?
The extra 30 days from 1260 to 1290 is the 30 days
that God will punish antichrist and his followers during the 7 Vials .
It's time to check
out Page 9 and 10 of
Prepare 4 End Times
and learn all about the 7 Vials.
When you're finished, return, and we'll carry on with our study.
BUT WHY wait until 1335 days to come out?
Because the Vials of God's wrath that are poured out
upon the unbelievers during the 30 days after the Great Tribulation,
cause much damage and the earth will need to rest, so you'll want to
stay put for 45 additional days, and not come out of hiding until the
1335 days are completed. There may be harmful radiation or other
hazardous conditions that God knows will need time to settle, or
perhaps there are other unknown reasons why God gave this warning to
Daniel.
If there was any nuclear activity there may be time
required before it's safe in the outside environment for people to
survive. You will have to keep track of the days somehow, whether it
be to draw lines on the wall of the cave with a pocket knife or some
other PERMANENT method of keeping a record. You will also know by
events that take place during the 3½ years.
Of course each Christian camp will have
designated leaders by God and the best advice is to LISTEN to them.
There is yet another reason why there are 75 extra
days after the 3½ years to stay hidden. It is a reflection of a
previous event that took place a long time ago, called Hanukkah. You
can read about this in the
FEAST SHADOW
study and see the fascinating way that God used celebrations as
prophecy of future events.
The day that Christians come out will be the same
day the Jewish people celebrated their freedom from Antiochus. This
Antiochus is the one who has been brought back to life as
Antichrist.
VERY fitting wouldn't you say?
God had ALL of this planned out.
WHY ME, LORD?
If you're chosen to be left behind, you may find
yourself asking that infamous question.
Did you know that Moses asked the same question when
God chose him to lead the children of Israel out of Egypt? God replied
to Moses that it was because He began His
Old Covenant
with the children of Israel to give them the Promised Land, and He
intended to bring them back to it. Does it surprise you that after the
End Times, God will bring all of us, His children, back to the
Promised Land too? You'll be learning more about that later in our
study.
Maybe God has chosen you as one of the meek that
shall inherit the earth.
Don't get confused about the word 'meek' when you
read about who will be left behind.
Meek does not mean weak.
|
Psalms 37:11
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight
themselves in the abundance of peace. |
|
Numbers 12:3
(Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were
upon the face of the earth.) |
|
Matthew 11:29
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of
me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest
unto your souls. |
Wouldn't it be an honor to consider yourself meek?
If you still believe that all Christians are
Raptured, I ask you this ...
Do ALL Christians go to Heaven and receive celestial
bodies only to be returned to the earth and placed back in physical
bodies during the 1000 year Millennium as to fulfill the scripture
that the meek shall inherit the earth?
Not hardly. Once you're in Heaven, you're home. The
only way to come back to earth would be to choose to
leave your Heavenly home like the fallen angels did, to seek evil.
Also check out pages 10-11 of the
Prepare For End Times study to find out what happens to
satan,
antichrist and the false prophet and what the Millennium will be like.
