Eschatology : The Events of the Tribulation No.14

The Last Half of the Tribulation Period :

The Full Manifestation of the Antchrist.

After the Judgment of God on Russia, and the Destruction of the False Apostate Church, and The 144,000 Hebrew Evangelists and the two Witnesses. The Antichrist moves to consolidate his power in the earth.  Here is Willmington’s suggestion of the events: p.844

1. The Antichrist and the false prophet set up their headquarters in Jerusalem.
   
2. Here in the Holy City the Antichrist is suddenly assassinated as millions of viewers look on. Rev 13:3;14
3. Before his burial, he suddenly rises from the dead. The whole world is electrified.
4. The Antichrist is then worshipped by the whole world as ‘God’
5. The False prophet then makes a statue of the Antichrist, and causes it to speak, and places it in the Holy of Holies in the temple. Dan 9:27  He will make a binding covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he will pause both the sacrifice and grain offerings. Destructive people will cause desolation on the pinnacle until it is complete and what has been decreed is poured out on the desolator.'

Dan 12:11  And from the time that the continual burnt-offering shall be taken away, and         the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand and two hundred and ninety days.

Mat 24:15  When therefore ye see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let him that readeth understand),

Mat 24:16  then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains:

Mat 24:17  let him that is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house:

Mat 24:18  and let him that is in the field not return back to take his cloak.

Mat 24:19  But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck in those days!

2Th 2:4  he that opposeth and exalteth himself against all that is called God or that is worshipped; so that he sitteth in the temple of God, setting himself forth as God.

6. A law is passed which stipulates that no one can buy or sell, work or obtain any necessities of Life unless they have the Mark of the beast on their right hand or their forehead to identify him as a worshipper of the beast.Rev 13:16  And he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead;

Rev 13:17  and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name.

7. The number of this Mark is 666.Rev 13:18  Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six.

For those SDA's who say that Sunday Worship is the mark of the beast need to think again about the truth. What twisting of the the truth do wolves in sheeps clothing do. If you care to; you can make the Scriptures say just what suits you and your false beliefs.
