Summary: A description of the People in the Tribulation, the Purpose of it, the Process of it and the Plan of God NOW in place to prevent us having to endure it.

Just after the Rapture, there exists a state of confusion on earth...many have been "caught up" and

those left behind are bewildered. Into this mass confusion enters a person promising Peace, Safety

and a Solace for the confusion.(ANTICHRIST)..HE WILL BE ACCEPTED W0RLDWIDE, AND ONCE HE GETS HIS POSITION OF POWER SECURED, HE WILL TURN ON THE PEOPLE....AND GOD

WILL ALLOW GREAT DISTRESS TO FALL UPON THOSE REMAINING.

LET US LOOK AT THE TRIBULATION:

I. THE PEOPLE IN IT:

A. Those left behind in the rapture..the lost

the wicked, the abominable, those who refused

to receive Jesus.

B. Jews who refused to receive Jesus.

II.THE PURPOSE OF IT:

A. To bring retribution and punishment to those

who refused to submit to God.

B. To give the Jews a chance to repent and come

to Jesus Christ

III. THE PROCESS OF IT: (sEE reVELATION CH’S 5-19)

Summarizing, the events will be so catastrophic

that some will repent...but others will blame

God and remain in rebellion.

The seven seals, bowls of wrath, trumpets,

etc (see Revelation) will cause MAJOR

catastrophies on earth...like never before seen!

(affecting: food supply, water supply, land

and sea life, commerce, health, natural elements

etc. EVERYTHING WILL BE CHAOTIC!)

IV. THE PLAN GOD HAS FOR PREVENTING ANYONE FROM

GOING THROUGH IT;

A. no one has to go through the great tribulation!

B. JESUS SAYS "COME UNTO ME, BELIEVE IN ME,

RECEIVE ME, ABIDE IN ME, FOLLOW ME, RELY ON

ME,,,TRUST ME!!!"

C. IF we CONFESS OUR SIN, CALL UPON JESUS

AND COMMIT OUR LIVES TO HIM...WE WILL BE

"CAUGHT UP" TO BE WITH JESUS BEFORE THIS

TERRIBLE TIME COMES ON EARTH.

("AIN’T THAT GOOD NEWS????)

INVITATION:

1. ARE YOU SAVED? receive Jesus NOW!!

2. Do you want your loved ones to experience the

tribulation? If NOT..THEN WITNESS TO THEM NOW!!!

BEG PLEAD AND DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET THEM

TO SEE THEIR NEED FOR JESUS CHRIST WHILE THE

OPPORTUNITY IS STILL AVAILABLE.
