There will be seven things that shall take place, and those will be the signs and events for us to watch out for in our lifetime. Seven is the Number for spritual completness These will be things that we read in the papers, and see on our television sets. Each of these seven signs are the seven seals that Jesus gave us through the pen of John in Revelation chapters 8, and 9. These are also the seven trumpets that are given in the book of Revelation and we are to learn these thing so we cannot be deceived. Though the seven seals are not given in order, the seven trumpets are sounded in order. So by the time one ends these chapters, in Mark 13 Luke 21, Mathew 24 one should know what the seven seals and the seven trumpets signify.Why is this so important to us today? Because we are living in the generation that shall see Satan and his fallen angels coming to earth at the sixth trump, and God doesn't want His children to be deceive by Satan's supernatural powers, deceptions, and his lying tongue. There will be a flood of lies that shall cover the entire earth, and most Christians will be take in by them. Why? Their traditions and false doctrines will lead them right to Satan. We will see the events that will consummate the end of this earth age of man living in the flesh. Now Jesus is going to tell us When it will be, How will it happen, Where will His coming be, and Jesus expects each of us to pay attention.Luke 21:7 "And they asked Him, saying, "Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?" Luke 21:7 "And they asked Him, saying, "Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?" The disciples are asking Jesus this question while they were standing in the Temple. Remember that Jesus had just told them that this beautiful temple they were in was going to be laid flat, and the stones crushed. Again, they had time to think on these matters while walking out of the temple, down through the valley and up on the mount of Olives. They wanted to know the events that would bring it all to an end.Luke 21:8 "And He said, "Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in My name saying, `I am Christ;' and the time draweth near": go ye not therefore after them."This is one of the pit falls we have today, for many come claiming to have that answer, but what do they preach? false doctrine and the traditions of men. It is time to get into the Word, and Jesus is warning you and I here; "Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in My name". Those false ministries will look so good, sing all the beautiful songs, call themselves by names common to Christians, and claim themselves to be called and preachers of God. They will say, "I am Christ's teacher", but by their own words they show themselves to be are false teachers. Jesus is telling you not to go near them. If they are teaching you things that go against God's Word, they are not of Christ, but of the devil. Are they teaching you all of the Word, and preparing you for the time we are living in, or teaching you to grow in your spiritual life to be a big spiritual baby. The milk of the Word is necessary in becoming a Christian, but you don't grow up to prepare yourself to stand against Satan by staying on a spiritual milk diet. It takes a chapter by chapter study of all the Word, to prepare you with the meat of the Word for our end times. If anyone tells you to leave out any of the Scriptures, run from that man, for Jesus came to fulfill all the Word, and not change one letter of the law.You will be here to see Satan and his fallen angels come to this earth just as Jesus told us in Revelation 12:7-9. If you hear someone tell you that you won't don't give him ear to his words. Jesus is warning us living today to be aware of these people. Some of our people knew that there was more to God's Word than what was taught in our churches. Jesus gave us these seven signs leading to His second advent, and this goes against some of the doctrines of men today. So as you study the rest of this chapter, ask yourself, should I take the words of Christ, or some man made doctrine? This is why Jesus warned us, "Take heed that no man deceive you." Any preacher that says he comes in the name of Christ, if his message goes against what is stated in this chapter, he is a liar and deceiver, and not the Christian that he claims to be.Today many churches teach a rapture doctrine, that God is going to fly Christians out of this earth before Satan comes to deceive the entire earth. The book of Revelation allows us to see clearly that Satan will come first, and that we are to wake up and pay attention to these events, so we will not be so ignorant as to chase after Satan upon his arrival to Jerusalem. Satan is coming first, and the things that he says and does will be much like what people expect Christ to be like at His coming. If you believe that you are not going to see Satan, but that you will fly out, you will be deceived.Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Luke 21:9 "But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by." When wars and unrest are going on around the world, don't get anxious, for Jesus is telling us that those things will happen before His coming. As long as there is a war in Afghanistan, or any place in the world, and there is unrest in the middle east, Africa, Northern Ireland and so on, the end is not immediately. In other words, if all you hear is peace, peace, and all efforts are bound up in peace talks and agreement, the watch out. All we hear today is the struggle to bring the difference sides to the peace table, and that is all that has been happening since the New World Order came to power. When we look at those different small wars, they are all fought over religion. In the middle east, between Judaism and Islam; in Northern Ireland, Catholics and Protestants; in Afghanistan, Islam and Christians; In India, Hinduism and Islam; and on it goes. Solve the religious problem and you set the world at peace. So how can that come to pass? With the coming of a one world religious order; the world political system would end and a religious order taking its place.Luke 21:10 "Then said He unto them, "Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:"These problems and wars will continue until the something or someone comes to bring that world peace.Antichrist (Satan) Daniel 11:21 "And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceable, and obtain the kingdom by flattery's." This is not a system, but a person. When the Antichrist (Satan) comes, there will be no war. He will come as a man of peace and prosperity. Daniel 11:24 "He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: year, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time." 1Th 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. When does one feel safe and see Peace when they falsley believe christ is here but it is the Antichrist (Satan) Luke 21:11 "And great earthquakes shall be in divers placers, and famines, and pestilence; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven."Luke 21:12 [b]"But before all these[/b], they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake."The Elect will put on trial first (Mark 13) because the false prophet Antichrist comes first Just as verse 18 says so do not believe anyone who says differnt. Luke 21:13 "And it shall turn to you for a testimony."Rev. 6:9 .... Mark 13:11 ... Luke 12:11, 12
