Two things that will occur before the return of the Lord
In light of the recent events that point towards a possible global conflicts, I believe that it is right to quickly discuss a few things that will precede the rapture.
The Apostle Paul wrote in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4:
“Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.''
The return of the Lord will be preceded by a ‘Great Falling Away’ and the ‘man of sin’ will be revealed.
The term ‘Great Falling Away’ comes from the word ‘apostasy’. The term apostasy is defined as the renunciation of a religious belief. In the context of the above mentioned passage, the apostasy refers to a great number of Christians who will abandon the faith.
For a moment, it seems that such an event would never occur. But when I think deeply about the word ‘apostasy’, I certainly come to this observation: “in my 40+ years of living on Earth, I have seen many people turning away from God when they went through trialsome times.’
Therefore, it is possible that many Christians might suddenly decide to turn their backs on God.
There is a global conflict pending on the world. Russian armies are already at the doorsteps of the USA. Such global conflict will cause misery for many people, Christians included. During those times, many Christians will turn away from God.
It is important that I warn you about it so that you do not lose your faith when the bad times hit on Earth.
Then, at the pinnacle of the apostasy, the Antichrist will appear. It will be easy for him to rule at a global level because the light of the church will be very weak.
You need to keep this message, so that when the hard times hit the earth, you will not fall into discouragement and apostasy. You would have known about it already.
