[> [> [> [> Subject: I simply meant Author: Hillbilly [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 18:35:00 08/21/12 Tue when the anti-Christ has total control of the world for his period of time. Revelation 13:16-17 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. In order for this to take place the anti-Christ (beast) will have to have total control. He will be the sole authority and the false prophet will carry out his wishes. It will be a set-up that was typified by Pharaoh controlling Egypt through Joseph. The anti-Christ will have sole authority as a king, monarch or dictator therefore his realm could rightly be called a kingdom. Sorry if I confused

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Further Clarification Author: Caren [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 06:55:13 08/22/12 Wed OK but Christ Could return before that happens correct? I mean his return is imminent (sp?) and could happen at Anytime right? Perhaps Today.

[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Absolutely Author: Hillbilly [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:54:35 08/22/12 Wed I do not believe the Church will go through any part of the seven year tribulation period. I do however believe that things could get so bad many would think we were in the tribulation period. (think of the persecutions of the early Church saints where so many thousands were executed and tortured as happened under Nero) I do put distinction between the rapture (translation of the saints) and the 2nd advent when Jesus comes back to set up His Kingdom at the end of the tribulation period. Tribulation saints are not Church age saints. Hope this clarifies.
