Biblical prophecy is manifesting, and the pages of the book of Revelation are unfolding before our eyes. We may be the generation to witness the end of the age and the glorious appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet before Christ's return, the Earth will experience an extended period of sorrow, marked by wars, famine, and natural disasters. This will lead to Great Tribulation, a time when believers in Christ will face intense persecution for their faith. Some will be martyred, and all will be hated for Christ's name's sake. The affliction will be so severe that there will be a great falling away from the faith, with some professing Christians betraying their brethren.
Immediately after the tribulation of those days, Spirit-filled followers of Christ will be raptured. The remnant of the 12 tribes of Israel will witness the departure of the Church, just as Elisha witnessed the prophet Elijah's rapture and took his place. At that time, Israel will acknowledge Jesus as Lord and Savior and will assume the Church's mantle. Then, God Almighty will pour out His wrath upon humanity for persecuting His Church, rejecting His Son, and refusing to repent of their sins. Finally, Jesus will appear in glory with His glorified Church and reveal Himself to the world.
