End Times Series, Part 2 - "Post Rapture Events - The Tribulation Period"

The tribulation is a future seven-year period of time in which humanity's decadence and depravity will reach its fullness, with God judging accordingly. God will finish His discipline of Israel and finalize His judgment of the unbelieving world. The church, made up of all who have trusted in the person and work of the Lord Jesus to save them from being punished for sin, will not be present during the tribulation. The church will be removed from the earth in an event known as the rapture, as we learned in our lesson last week. The mills of God grind slow, but “they grind exceeding small.” And when the seals are broken and the trumpets are blown and the bowls are poured out, everything that God made for human blessedness is going to become an instrument of death. God hates sin, but God loves what? Sinners. He’s provided a salvation in Jesus Christ and because of that, we are kept from the hour of tribulation, we who receive Christ.
