Beginning of sorrows

Matthew 24

33 ... when ye shall see all these things,

know that it is near, even at the doors.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying,

I am Christ;

and shall deceive many.

see 23

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars:

see that ye be not troubled:

for all these things must come to pass,

but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation,

and kingdom against kingdom:

and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Is the rapture at this point?

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted,

and shall kill you:

Is He talking to the Jews or the Church?

Some think this has already happened

and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.

10 And then shall many be offended,

The Jews are a nation

and shall betray one another,

and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise,

and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

Is this going on today or is it future?

13 But he that shall endure unto the end,

the same shall be saved.

The ones with faith in Jesus will endure

14 And this gospel of the kingdom

shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations;

and then shall the end come.

The 144 K sealed Revelation 7

The two will witnesses Revelation 11

The angel will preach Revelation 14.6

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation,

spoken of by Daniel the prophet, Daniel 9:27

stand in the holy place,

(whoso readeth, let him understand:)

Mid-point of tribulation

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child,

and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

great tribulation

21 For then shall be great tribulation,

such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time,

no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened,

there should no flesh be saved:

but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you,

Lo, here is Christ, or there;

believe it not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs,

and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders;

insomuch that, if it were possible,

they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you,

Behold, he is in the desert;

go not forth:

behold, he is in the secret chambers;

believe it not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east,

and shineth even unto the west;

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is,

there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened,

and the moon shall not give her light,

and the stars shall fall from heaven,

and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:

and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn,

and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven

with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet,

and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds,

from one end of heaven to the other.
