The Prophetic Return of Christ – Bill Hutchison leadingtolife.org

The Bible outlines crucial events preceding Christ’s return, emphasizing the importance of comprehending their timeline and significance. Christ, responding to disciples’ inquiries, foretells these events in Matthew 24, mirrored in the Book of Revelation. Seven Seals in Revelation align with Matthew 24’s portrayal of false messiahs, wars, famines, and pestilences.

Matthew 24:14 signals the nearing end: the global preaching of the Gospel. The abomination of desolation, an identifiable event, signifies the start of great tribulation, culminating in heavenly signs.

The Day of the Lord unfolds through Seven Trumpets, each heralding catastrophic events. Despite turmoil, many persist in sinful ways. God mercifully sends witnesses during tribulation, offering spiritual guidance, but some reject them.

After Six Trumpets, humanity faces consequences, yet many remain unrepentant. The seventh trumpet announces Christ’s return, initiating a transformative era where God restores and teaches His ways. Swords become plowshares, nations cease war, and nature harmonizes.

This hopeful vision underscores God’s ultimate purpose: eternal life for those embracing His peaceful ways. Despite humanity’s rebellion, God’s grace extends through tribulation, aiming to lead people toward His truth.
