1 In View of the End Study WorkBook What DOES the Bible say about the return of Christ and the end of the age? Elbert D. Charpie 1

2 Session 1: The Millennium Amillennial View That the millennial reign of Christ is is most of the book of Revelation in most of its as The Millennium is symbolic of. the world will get progressively comes. until Christ Post-millennial View Most of the book of Revelation is culminated at the fall of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and We are now the millennial reign of Christ and will evolve into a new heaven and a new earth. Things will continually get until Christ comes to reign personally. The thousand years is a analogy and not necessarily a literal 1000 years. 1

3 Post-Millennial View YOU ARE HERE! Session 1: The Millennium 2

4 Session 1: The Millennium Pre-millennial View That there a literal 1000 years reign when Christ will this earth. It is a that will be preceded by a seven year period, known as the event, where God will pour out His upon this world. 7 Year Period Dan. : Millennium Rev. : - Daniel s 7 Year Period = Tribulation Period (Dan 9:27 NIV) He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing of the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him." 3

5 YOU ARE HERE! Pre-Millennial View Session 1: The Millennium 4

6 Session 1: The Millennium Revelation 20:1-10 (NIV) And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time. 4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years. 7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. 9 They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Hermeneutics? - Scripture Two Methods: 1. Method Reader determines what scriptures teach. 2.

Method Reader discovers what scriptures teach. 2 Cor 1:13 (NIV) For we do not write you anything you cannot read or understand... Five Keys to a Face Value Hermeneutic 1. Accept the meaning of scripture in its most,, customary sense. 2. Take scripture in. 3. Compare scripture with. 4. Before truth is realized, all seeming scriptural must be harmonized. 5. Watch for Near / Far applications in scripture. 7

9 Session 2: The 70th Week 8

10 Daniel s 70th Week Session 2: The 70th Week (Dan 9:24 NIV) Seventy 'sevens' are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy. Purpose of the 70 Weeks 1. Your 2. And Your 3. To 4. To Put an to 5. To for 6. To Bring in 7. To Seal Up and 8. To Anoint the } For Who? Daniel 9:25 (NIV) "Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven `sevens,' and sixty-two `sevens.' It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. Sevens + Sevens = Sevens 69 X Seven = Years = Period of time from 445 B.C. (Artaxerxes Longimanus issued a decree to rebuild Jerusalem cf. Neh 2:5) until the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. 9

And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, "Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this." The! 20

All of the Pre-Tribulation problem points can be But the entire picture is still one where all the pieces seem to be to together! 21

23 Session 6: The Day of the Lord Is there not a way to understand end-time prophecy where all the pieces just fall into place? To Understand:! We Must Understand: 22

24 Session 6: The Day of the Lord The Day of the Lord Day of Wrath and Judgment on the Isa. 13:6-9, 11, 13 Amos 8:3-5 of the religious vs. those who truly rely on the Lord Day of Judgment on Isa. 30:11; Zep. 1:11-12 Israel will the Holy One and be joined by Isa. 10:20; 14:1 as God s people God God Zep. 1:17-18; Amos 5:18-19; Jer. 4:10 Zep. 2:1-3; 3:8-9 Israel His people A day when He comes to Zec. 2:10-12 among His people Day of Last Joel 2:1-2 Joel 2:11-13 to return to the Lord like never before or ever again Day of on the name of the Lord Joel 2:32 for everyone who calls of the Day of the Lord: Sun and stars darkened, moon darkened/ turned to blood Joel 2:10,31; 3:14-15; Amos 8:9 23

25 Session 6: The Day of the Lord The Day of the Lord New Testament Scriptures referring to the Day of the Lord: Matt 24:29-31 Mark 13:24-27 Luke 21:25-28 Acts 2: Themes in the New Testament 1. Sign of,, and just before Jesus comes in and great 3. / : gather His elect, Redemption is drawing near, everyone who calls will be saved. Revelation 6:12 (NIV) I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, 13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. 14 The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. 15 Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. 16 They called to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! 17 For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?" 24

26 Session 6: The Day of the Lord The Day of the Lord Revelation 7:3-4, 9-10, (NIV) "Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God." 4 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel....9 After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb."...13 Then one of the elders asked me, " These in white robes--who are they, and where did they come from?" 14 I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. The Rapture 2 Thessalonians 2:1,3 (NIV) 1 Concerning the of our Lord Jesus Christ and our to him, we ask you, brothers, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Lord has already come....3 Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. 25

27 Session 6: The Day of the Lord The Rapture 1 Thessalonians 4:17-18 (NIV) 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage each other with these words... Chapter 1 Thessalonians 5:1-2 (NIV) 1 Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, 2 for you know very well that the of the will come like a thief in the night. Have we missed the fact that the Day of the Lord And the Rapture Are the? 26

28 If that is true, then... Session 6: The Day of the Lord 1. All Prophecies will fit 2. All Prophecies will 3. All with other views will be answered 4. There will be no contradictions Notes 27

29 Session 7: The Pre-Wrath Rapture Major NT Prophetic Passages Matthew Mark Luke Luke 1 & 2 Thessalonians Revelation All Prophecies Harmonize of Sun/Moon/Stars Matt. 24:29; Mark 13:24-25; Luke 21:25-26; Acts 2:20; Rev. 6:12-13 Jesus in power and glory Matt. 24:30; Mark 13:26; Luke 21:27; Rev. 6:16 / Deliverance Matt. 24:31; Mark 13:27; Luke 21:28; Acts 2:21; Rev. 7:9-10 The Day of the Lord in Thessalonians (2 Th 2:1,3 NIV) Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers {3} Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. This passage ends... The Rapture and the Day of the Lord in First Thessalonians 4:13 ff (1 Th 4:17-18 NIV) After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. {18} Therefore encourage each other with these words. Chapter 5 begins (1 Th 5:1-2 NIV) Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, {2} for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 28

30 Session 7: The Pre-Wrath Rapture The Days of Noah / Lot On a day: 1. Noah and his family were 2. God s was poured out in the form of the flood 3. Lot Sodom 4. God s rained down in fire and sulphur (Luke 17:30 NIV) It will be just like this on the the Son of Man is revealed. On the of the : 1. God s people will be to Heaven 2. God s will be poured out upon the earth The - View (2 Pet 2:5-9 NIV)...if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment. 29

31 Session 7: The Pre-Wrath Rapture As In the Days of Noah (Mat 24:39-41 NIV) and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and [ ] them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. {40} Two men will be in the field; one will be [ ] and the other left. {41} Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be [ ] and the other left. Dictionary entry: ai[rw (airō) take, take up; take away, set aside Col 2:14); carry; sweep away (of a flood); raise (of one s voice); take over, conquer (Jn 11:48); kill (Jn 19:15); keep in suspense (Jn 10:24) Dictionary entry: paralambavnw (paralambanō) take, take along;, accept (often of a tradition); learn (1 Th 4:1); take charge of (Jn 19:16b) Comparison is not the ones flood = taken to rapture = taken to be Comparison is of unexpected judgment and redemption at the! (Mat 24:36-39 NIV) "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. {37} As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. {39} and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 30

32 Session 7: The Pre-Wrath Rapture Suffering and Judgment 2 Thess 1:4 (NIV) Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring. 5 All this is evidence that God's judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. 6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you 7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. 8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power 10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you. Notes 31

33 Session 8: Rapture Timing 3 Events Happen Together: 1. of Sun / Moon / Stars 2. in power and glory 3. (Salvation/Deliverance) Timing: for these events! In Rev. 6:12-13 the sign is found upon opening the seal. There is a scroll with seven seals. In Rev 5: Who is worthy to the seals and the scroll? 32

34 Session 8: Rapture Timing Matt 24: Matt 24: Matt 24: Matt 24: Matt 24: Matt 24: Matt 24: (Mark 13:32 NIV) "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father Clues as to when the Rapture will happen: 2. 33

Key Elements The certainty that the Lord may at any moment The uncertainty of the of His arrival The fact that no stands between the believer and that hour Arguments The Lord is they were expecting Him at any! They were waiting Come, O Lord! if persecution or wrath were involved why eagerly wait? Answers The Lord is near: Jesus coming is in the same way the prophets proclaimed the Day of the Lord is near There are prophecies that have to take place the Day of the Lord and so the Day of the Lord is NOT imminent They were eagerly waiting: We don t eagerly await We DO eagerly await! 41
