14 Reasons The GREAT TRIBULATION Already Happened

“The antidote to defeat isn’t despair, doom, or dispensational gloomery—it’s courage, resilience, and a fighting spirit. Christ calls us to plant the flag of His kingdom in the soil of this world, not wave the white flag of surrender. Just like the book of Acts, we advance no matter what—whether they mock us, imprison us, or even kill us. Because here’s the thing: if we persevere in faithfulness, we will win, not because of us, but because the world belongs to Jesus, and His dominion is unstoppable”

The Jewish Love Grew Cold

Jesus warned that the love of many would grow cold, and history bears witness to how this prophecy came true. Under Satan’s relentless influence, the Jewish nation spiraled into a psychopathic frenzy of hatred—toward their enemies, their brothers, and eventually, themselves.”

The Great Apostasy

"The apostasy Jesus predicted wasn’t confined to the last days of human history—it was an imminent apostasy. Jewish converts who had embraced the Gospel with joy were abandoning Christ to return to the shadows of the old covenant. This was no mere lapse in faith; it was a deliberate rejection of the One who fulfilled the law, a betrayal that proved they were never truly of Him."

End Times Signs As Imminent Judgment

"Signs in Scripture have always declared two imminent outcomes: judgment upon God's enemies and salvation for His people. They are not distant mysteries but urgent warnings and assurances, rooted in God's covenantal faithfulness and fulfilled in the ministry of Christ. To miss their historical context is to misunderstand their purpose."

The Curse Upon The Jews

“This is the story of a cursed generation, a people who invoked the blood of their Messiah and reaped the whirlwind. The destruction of Jerusalem was not just a tragedy; it was a testament. God's Word does not fail. His promises, His warnings—they are as unshakable as the heavens.”

Wars, Earthquakes, and Famines (OH MY!)

Jesus didn’t give His disciples a casual prophecy. His words hit them like thunder: wars, rumors of wars, earthquakes, and famines—all signs they would experience with their own eyes, ears, and trembling hearts. He was shaking them awake, warning them of a future that would upend everything they knew, a future they would live to see

The Whore, Jerusalem

The destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 was not just the end of an era; it was the severing of the old covenant, the final 'divorce' of a harlot bride. And yet, in that moment of devastation, the Church stood, cradled in the hands of the Holy Spirit, ready to grow and become the radiant bride Christ would one day return for.

False Messiahs and Anti-Christs

The manifest testimony of Scripture and history is that the first century Christians faced a proliferation of false messiahs and anti christs, who were the architects of the bloody uprisings, rebellions, and insurrections, which ultimately provoked Rome into all-out war. Jesus, in His perfection and wisdom, not only called it, but He accurately prophesied the very engine that God would use to fuel the Roman’s battering rams: The rise of false messiahs.

When Will The Reign Of Christ End?

“He must reign until all brothels are closed and marriage is esteemed. He must reign until the media stops peddling lies and division and would be willing to end each broadcast with The Lord’s Prayer or the Apostle’s Creed. He must reign until there are no ghettos in Chicago, there is no swamp in Washington, and there is no depravity in Hollywood. He must reign until child is catechized and every family on earth comes under His Lordship and covenant blessings.”
