The tribulation period is seven years total it is broken in
to two parts 3.5 years each the first 3.5 year tribulation period is just known
as the tribulation the second 3.5 year tribulation period is known as the great
tribulation The rapture takes place according to Mathew 24-15 which takes place
3.5 years into the 7 year tribulation period fortunately for some they get to
skip out of the second 3.5 year period known as the great tribulation. You will
not escape the first 3.5 years of the tribulation or the anti Christ. Many of the saints voluntarily
stay to assist in the defeat of the anti Christ however the Elect do not have a
choice hence the name elect. These saints and the Elect will suffer perhaps
even be martyred but they will be handsomely rewarded for there efforts. The 144000 choose to stay as well currently they are following the Lamb where ever he goes day and night. Being
raptured is the easy way out but not the best way out
Luke 17
1599 Geneva Bible
17 1 Offenses. 3 We must forgive him that trespasseth
against us. 10 We are unprofitable servants. 11 Of the ten lepers. 20 Of the
coming of the kingdom of heaven. 33 False Christs. 36 After what manner
Christ’s coming shall be.
1 Then said he to his disciples, [a]It cannot be avoided,
but that offences will come, but woe be to him by whom they come.
2 It is better for him that a great millstone were hanged
about his neck, and that he were cast into the sea, then that he should offend
one of these little ones.
3 ¶ [b]Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother trespass
against thee, rebuke him: and if he repent, forgive him.
4 And though he sin against thee seven times in a day, and
seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, it repenteth me, thou shalt
forgive him.
5 ¶ [c]And the Apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our
faith.
6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith, as much as is [d]a
grain of mustard seed, and should say unto this mulberry tree, Pluck thyself up
by the roots, and plant thyself in the sea, it should even obey you.
7 ¶ [e]Who is it also of you, that having a servant plowing
or feeding cattle, would say unto him by and by, when he were come from the
field, Go, and sit down at table,
8 And would not rather say to him, Dress wherewith I may
sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken, and
afterward eat thou, and drink thou?
9 Doth he thank that servant, because he did that which was
commanded unto him? I trow not.
10 [f]So likewise ye, when ye have done all those things,
which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that
which was our duty to do.
11 ¶ [g]And so it was when he went to Jerusalem, that he
passed through the midst of Samaria, and Galilee.
12 And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten
men that were lepers, which stood afar off.
13 And they lifted up their voices and said, Jesus, Master,
have mercy on us.
14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go, show
yourselves unto the Priests. And it came to pass, that as they went, they were
cleansed.
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned
back, and with a loud voice praised God,
16 And fell down on his face at his feet, and gave him
thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
17 And Jesus answered, and said, Are there not ten cleansed?
but where are the nine?
18 There is none found that returned to give God praise, save
this stranger.
19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way, thy faith hath
saved thee.
20 ¶ [h]And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the
kingdom of God should come, he answered them, and said, The kingdom of God
cometh not with [i]observation.
21 Neither shall men say, Lo here, or lo there: for behold,
the kingdom of God is [j]within you.
22 [k]And he said unto the disciples, the days will come,
when ye shall desire to see [l]one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall
not see it.
23 [m]Then they shall say to you, Behold here, or behold
there: but go not thither, neither follow them.
24 For as the lightning that lighteneth out of the one part
under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven, so shall the Son of man
be in his day.
25 But first must he suffer many things and be reproved of
this generation.
26 [n]And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in
the days of the Son of man.
27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, and gave in
marriage unto the day that Noah went into the Ark: and the flood came, and
destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot: They ate,
they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built.
29 But in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire
and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 After these examples shall it be in the day when the son
of man revealed.
31 [o]At that day he that is upon the house, and his stuff
in the house, let him not come down to take it out: and he that is in the field
likewise, let him not turn back to that he left behind.
32 Remember Lot’s wife.
33 Whosoever will seek to save his soul, shall loose it: and
whosoever shall loose it, shall [p]get it life.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two in one bed:
the one shall be received, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together, the one shall be
taken, and the other shall be left.
36 Two shall be in the field: one shall be received, and
another shall be left.
37 [q]And they answered, and said to him, Where, Lord? And
he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither shall also the eagles be
gathered together.

against us. 10 We are unprofitable servants. 11 Of the ten lepers. 20 Of the
coming of the kingdom of heaven. 33 False Christs. 36 After what manner
Christ’s coming shall be.
Luke 17:1 The Church is of necessity subject to offences,
but the Lord will not suffer them unpunished, if any of the least be offended.
Luke 17:3 Our reprehensions must be just, and proceed of
love and charity.
Luke 17:5 God will never be utterly lacking to the Godly
(although he be not so perfectly with them, as they would) even in those
difficulties, which cannot be overcome by man’s reason.
Luke 17:6 If you had no more faith, but the quantity of the
grain of mustard seed.
Luke 17:7 Seeing that God may challenge unto himself of
right, both us and all that is ours, he can be debtor unto us for nothing,
although we labor manfully even unto death.
Luke 17:10 The most perfect keeping of the Law, which we can
perform, deserves no reward.
Luke 17:11 Christ doeth well even unto such, as will be
unthankful, but the benefits of God profit them only to salvation, which are
thankful.
Luke 17:20 The kingdom of God is not marked of many,
although it be most present before their eyes: because they fondly persuade
themselves, that it is joined with outward pomp.
Luke 17:20 With any outward pomp and show of majesty, to be
known by: for there were otherwise many plain and evident tokens, whereby men
might have understood, that Christ was the Messiah, whose kingdom was so long
looked for: but he speaketh in this place of those signs which the Pharisees
dreamed of, which looked for an earthly kingdom of Messiah.
Luke 17:21 You look about for Messiah as though he were
absent, but he is amongst you in the midst of you.
Luke 17:22 We oftentimes neglect those things when they be
present, which we afterward desire when they are gone, but in vain.
Luke 17:22 The time will come that you shall seek for the
Son of man, with great sorrow of heart, and shall not find him.
Luke 17:23 Christ forewarneth us that false Christs shall
come, and that his glory shall suddenly be spread far and wide through the
world, after that the ignomy of the cross is put out and extinguished.
Luke 17:26 The world shall be taken unawares with the sudden
judgment of God: and therefore the faithful ought to watch continually.
Luke 17:31 We must take good heed, that neither distrust,
nor the enticements of this world, nor any respect of friendship hinder us the
least that may be.
Luke 17:33 That is, shall save it, so Matthew expoundeth it:
for the life that is here spoken of, is everlasting salvation.
Luke 17:37 The only way to continue is to cleave to Christ.
Matthew 24
24 2 The destruction of the Temple. 4 The signs of Christ’s
coming. 12 Iniquity. 23 False Christs. 29 The signs of the end of the world. 31
The Angels. 32 The fig tree. 37 The days of Noah. 42 We must watch. 45 The
servant.
1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the Temple, and his
disciples came to him, to show him the building of the Temple.
2 [a]And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things?
Verily I say unto you, there shall not be here left a stone upon a stone, that
shall not be cast down.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, his disciples came
unto him apart, saying, Tell us when these things shall be, and what sign shall
be of thy coming, and of the end of the world.
4 [b]And Jesus answered, and said unto them, Take heed that
no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my Name, saying, I am Christ, and
shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars: see that ye
be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the [c]end is not
yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and realm against
realm, and there shall be famine, and pestilence, and earthquakes in [d]divers
places.
8 All these are but the beginning of [e]sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall
kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations for my Name’s sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one
another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall deceive
many.
12 And because iniquity shall be increased, the love of many
shall be cold.
13 [f]But he that endureth to the end, he shall be saved.
14 And this [g]Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached
through the whole [h]world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the
end come.
15 ¶ [i]When ye therefore shall see the [j]abomination of
desolation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, set in the holy place (let him that
readeth consider it.)
16 Then let them which be in Judea, flee into the mountains.
17 Let him which is on the housetop, not come down to fetch
anything out of his house.
18 And he that is in the field, let not him return back to
fetch his [k]clothes.
19 And woe shall be to them that are with child, and to them
that give suck in those days.
20 But pray that your flight be not in the winter, neither
on the [l]Sabbath day.
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not from
the beginning of the world to this time, nor shall be.
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not from
the beginning of the world to this time, nor shall be.
22 And except [m]those days should be shortened, there
should no [n]flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be
shortened.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ,
or there, believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
and [o]shall show great signs and wonders, so that if it were possible, they
should deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in
the desert, go not forth: Behold, he is in the secret places, believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the East, and is seen
into the West, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 [p]For wheresoever a dead [q]carcass is, thither will the
Eagles be gathered together.
29 [r]And immediately after the tribulations 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 heaven shall be shaken.
30 And then shall appear the [s]sign of the Son of man in
heaven: and then shall all the [t]kindreds of the earth [u]mourn, and they
shall see the Son of man [v]come in the clouds of heaven with power and great
glory.
31 And he shall send his Angels with a great sound of a
trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect, from the [w]four winds, and
from the one end of the heavens unto the other.
32 [x]Now learn the parable of the fig tree: when her bough
is yet [y]tender, and it putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near.
33 So likewise ye, when ye see all these things, know that
the kingdom of God is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, this [z]generation shall not pass,
till all these things be done.
35 [aa]Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall
not pass away.
36 [ab]But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no not the
Angels of heaven, but my father only.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so likewise shall the
coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days before the flood, they did [ac]eat and
drink, marry, and give in marriage, unto the day that Noah entered into the
Ark,
39 And knew nothing, till the flood came, and took them all
away, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
39 And knew nothing, till the flood came, and took them all
away, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 [ad]Then two shall be in the fields, the one shall be
received, and the other shall be refused.
41 [ae]Two women shall be grinding at the mill: the one
shall be received, and the other shall be refused.
42 [af]Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your
master will come.
43 Of this be sure, that if the good man of the house knew
at what watch the thief would come, he would surely watch, and not suffer his
house to be dug through.
