The Olivet Discourse (Mat 24, Mar 13, Luk 21) discusses the events of the Great Tribulation. Many assume these events are ‘worldly’ literal events (e.g., wars, earthquakes, etc.). But, the events of the Great Tribulation are spiritual events. They primarily impact the nominal Christian churches and parachurches. Bear in mind that the church consists of both saved and unsaved people. The Bible teaches that many, many in the ‘church’ are not saved (e.g., Mat 7:21-23). In the Great Tribulation, the church is mostly worldly and true Christians suffer great tribulation in this church. The Great Tribulation is the ‘little season’ of deception that occurs just before the Last Day (second coming of Jesus Christ). The Great Tribulation occurs when Satan is loosed from his prison and goes forth to deceive the church. He powers the Antichrist, who will lead in both politics and the church. The Olivet Discourse focuses on the End Times and outlines the spiritual events of the Great Tribulation and the Last Day. Click on the link below to view a You Tube video on this topic.
