The Second Coming of Christ

The Tribulation
The Millennium
Pre-millennialism
Post-millennialism
A-millennialism
Pre-tribulationism
Mid-tribulationism
Post-tribulationism
The bodily return of Christ to the
earth in glory first as Judge andthen as King.The instantaneous gathering up of the whole Church from
the earth to meet Christ in the air and be with Him forever.
The period of 7 years before the second coming during
which there will be great suffering and distress on earth
as God pours out His promised wrath against sin.That period of 1,000 years revealed in Revelation 20during which time Christ will reign on earth in
fulfilment of the Abrahamic, Davidic and New
Covenants. It will be a period of peace, prosperity and
righteousness.
The view that the second coming will occur first and
then be followed by the literal fulfilment of the
millennium of Revelation 20The view that the world will be christianizedgradually and the Church will reign for a
millennium after which the second coming will
occur.
The view that there will be no millennium involving an
earthly rule of either Christ of the Church; the second
coming of Christ will simply occur at the end of history.The view that the rapture will take place in history
without warning, after which tribulation will begin
and be followed at its completion by the second
coming of Christ (Church will not go through
tribulation)
The view that the rapture will take place at the mid
point of the tribulation period, but the second
coming will occur at the end (Church will not go
through the 2nd half of tribulation)
The view that the rapture will coincide with the
second coming of Christ at the end of tribulation
(Church will go through tribulation)

Future ThingsIsrael in Gods prophetic program
Key truths to remember re: IsraelAbrahamic covenant relating to the land of Canaan
have yet to be completely fulfilled (Gen. 12, 15, 17)
Davidic covenant relating to a King on the Throne of
David forever have yet to be fulfilled (2 Sam. 7)New covenant relating to the regathering of Israel to the
land, religious renewal, and economic and political
prosperity have yet to be fulfilled but will be in the
Millennial Kingdom (Jer. 31; Ezek. 36)

Future ThingsIsrael in Gods prophetic program
Key truths to remember re: IsraelIsrael rejected Christ as King in His 1st coming thus
Christ postponed His Kingdom on earth until His 2nd
coming.
God caused a partial, judicial, spiritual blindness(hardening) on the Jews until full number of Gentiles
have been saved. Israel has not been rejected (Rom.
11:1; Rom. 11:25-32; Acts 13:47-48)
This Age, Church is temporarily Gods chosen
instrument to preach the Gospel (Jer. 31; Ezek. 36)

Future ThingsIsrael in Gods prophetic program
Key truths to remember re: Israel
Note: Although Israel has been disobedient throughout
most of her history, in every generation there has been
a believing Jewish remnant (Rom. 11:1-17) and God
has determined in mercy to save the elect Jew (Is.
59:20, Is. 45:17; Rom. 11:26-27; Dan. 12:1)

WHICH WILL IT BE?
C.S. Lewis put it this way, Someday everyone will stand
before God and one of two things will be said:
We will say to God Your will be done! (and be saved)
or
God will say to us your will be done! (and be lost)
Either God is your God or you are your own god! Each
person must make their choice and reap the
consequences.
AMEN,
