1. In What Characters Will the Lord Come to the World?
(a)
As a thief in the night. (
Matt. 24:43
43
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. (Matthew 24:43)
;
1 Thess. 5:2
2
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. (1 Thessalonians 5:2)
;
2 Peter 3:10
10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. (2 Peter 3:10)
.)
(b)
As Son of Man. (
Matt. 24:30, 44; 25:31
30
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. (Matthew 24:30)
44
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. (Matthew 24:44)
31
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: (Matthew 25:31)
.
(c)
As King of kings, and Lord of lords. (
Rev. 19:16
16
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. (Revelation 19:16)
;
Matt. 25:34
34
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: (Matthew 25:34)
.
2. What Scripture in 1 Thessalonians Shows Us That We Should Not Bear the Character of the World Which It Will Manifest When the Lord Comes to It?
(a)
“Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.”
1 Thessalonians 5:6
6
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. (1 Thessalonians 5:6)
.
(c)
“But
ye brethren are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.”
1 Thessalonians 5:4
4
But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. (1 Thessalonians 5:4)
.
3. Who Will Be Saved After the Church Is Taken up?
(a)
Evidently some of those who have not heard the gospel of God’s grace, as
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
10
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Thessalonians 2:10‑12)
shows what will happen to those who did not believe the truth.
(b)
Revelation 7:1-8
1
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2
And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3
Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4
And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
5
Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6
Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
7
Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
8
Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. (Revelation 7:1‑8)
gives us the symbolical numbers of the Israelites who will be saved during that time, and verses 9-17 gives us the saved out of the nations.
4. What Will Happen to Those Who Believe Not the Truth, When the Lord Takes His Own Away?
“For this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believe not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2 Thessalonians 2:11, 12
11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Thessalonians 2:11‑12)
.
In
Revelation 19:20, 21
20
And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21
And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh. (Revelation 19:20‑21)
we have first the beast and the false prophet, which deceived the people, cast into the lake of fire; and then the deceived people slain with the sword that will proceed out of the mouth of the Lord, which would be His word.
5. Of What Class of People Will the Man of Sin Be?
(a)
He will be a Jew, as
Daniel 11:37
37
Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. (Daniel 11:37)
reads: “Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers.”
(b)
2 Thessalonians 2:4
4
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, showing himself that he is God. (2 Thessalonians 2:4)
shows us that he will sit in the temple of God; only a Jew could get that place.
