100 HIS BEGINNINGS We can speculate about the matter, and my own personal view is that “wisdom” is the thing that has to be taken out of the way before Antichrist can appear and fool the whole world into believing that he is god. I say this, because as I look around me in the world, I have a feeling that wisdom is becoming a rarity these days! Anyone watching the American presidential election soap opera will agree with this view! The Canadian election campaign is not any less insane, nor is the situation in the Middle East, or the convulsions of the financial markets. Then shall intelligence hide itself, and wisdom withdraw to its chambers, by many it shall be sought and not found. 1 And many shall say to many at that time, Where hath the multitude of intelligence hidden itself, and whither has the multitude of wisdom hidden itself? 2 We can also speculate that it is righteousness that has to be lifted out of the way before Antichrist appears. And the little horn, which is Antichrist, shall appear suddenly in their midst, and righteousness shall be banished from the earth, and the whole world shall reach its consummation. 3 One land shall also ask another and say, Is righteousness passed through thee? And it shall answer, No. 4 1 IV Esedras: (1 st century A.D.) 2 II Baruch (1 st century A.D.) 3 Hippolytus: Scholia on Daniel 4 IV Esedras
THE GREAT TRIBULATION 1 Daniel 12:1 tells us, “And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time.” The same grim prediction is repeated to us by the Lord in Matthew 24:21-22, “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.” The Book of Revelation 7:14-17 gives us further details about this Great Tribulation, “And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.” This Great Tribulation will shortly precede the second coming of our Lord to gather His elect unto His eternal kingdom as we are told, in Matthew 24:29-31, “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: 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. 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.” It follows that this Great Tribulation will by necessity coincide with the universal rule of the Abomination of Desolation, that Man of Sin, “Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” (II Th 2:4) 1 Published: March, 2001
