Pastor Barry's  "Chapter & Verse"  2024  Day 228

August 14;   Matthew 24:30;   24/260(III);   ‘The Second Coming’

Mathew 24:30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

The tribulation has come to an end.  The seven year period where the Lord Jesus is dealing with the Jews to believe on Him.  Multitudes of Jews will be saved and gentiles as well.  The anti-Christ, his demonic accomplices and those who have rejected Jesus and taken the mark of the beast on their forehead or their right hand have done all that they could to persecute and kill those who would not join with them.  There will be multitudes of martyrs during the tribulation, those who accepted Jesus and would not take the mark of the beast.  Multitudes of those who accepted Jesus as their Lord during the tribulation will also survive, by the grace and protection of the Lord.  The anti-Christ and his armies of over 200 million will be drawn to Megiddo for the battle of Armageddon.  Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will suddenly appear in the heavens, riding on His white stallion.  The Body of Christ, Old Testament saints and all of the New Testament Christians who were raptured before the tribulation began will be with the Lord Jesus.  We too will all be mounted on white horses.  Revelation 19 teaches that Jesus will destroy the anti-Christ and his huge army with the sword that proceeds out of His mouth.  Jesus literally speaks destruction to the enemy, His angels gather those who have accepted Jesus during the tribulation to protect them and the anti-Christ and his forces are annihilated.  If you are a Christian you will be part of this.  You want to be.
