THE LORD'S GREAT TRIBULATION JUDGMENT IS COMING UPON ISRAEL FIRST ,
AND THEN UPON THE WHOLE WORLD AFTER THE RAPTURE OF HIS CHURCH.....
The Lord's great tribulation judgment is coming upon Israel first, BEFORE the resurrection & rapture of His Elect Body of Christ Church, as our HEADS-UP WARNING SIGN that "our redemption ( rapture ) draws nigh" ( Luke 21:28 ). AFTER the resurrection & rapture of His Church the Lord's great tribulation judgment then comes upon the whole world according to :
Romans 2:9
'TRIBULATION upon every soul of man that does evil, of THE JEW FIRST, and then also of the Gentile."
Amos 5:18 & 20 ( The 'Day of the Lord' begins as a very dark day )
"The Day of the Lord is DARKNESS, and not light. Shall not the 'Day of the Lord' be DARKNESS , and not light ? Even very DARK, and no brightness in it."
The following Scriptures ALL explain why the 'Day of the Lord' BEGINS as as VERY DARK DAY according to :
Matthew 24:29
"Immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days SHALL THE SUN BE DARKENED, and the moon shall not give her light,,,,,,"
Mark 13;24
"But in those days, AFTER that tribulation, THE SUN SHALL BE DARKENED , and the moon shall not give her light...."
Luke 21:25
"And there shall BE 'SIGNS' IN THE SUN, and in the moon...."
Acts 2;20
"THE SUN SHALL BE TURNED INTO DARKNESS, and the moon into blood BEFORE the great 'Day of the Lord."
Revelation 6:12
"And I beheld when He had opened THE SIXTH SEAL , and lo, there was a great earthquake , and THE SUN BECAME BLACK as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood...."
SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT :
The Scriptures tell us that "immediately after" the Gog-Magog War against Israel, which is "the tribulation of those days" in Israel, that "the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light". Then we are told "when we see these things BEGIN TO HAPPEN" we should "look up and lift up our heads" because our resurrection & rapture is about to occur. Look at ALL THE SIGNS we are given to watch for !
According to Your Holy Word, come Lord Jesus !
