When Messiah Jesus first came to this world, He came meek and lowly, and riding upon a colt, the foal of an ass. \u00a0God slipped into this world quietly, leaving His glory behind, and became one of us, only without sin. <\/strong><\/p>\n

He came to be the one time perfect sacrifice for our sins. \u00a0He displayed His credentials and ultimately rose again from the dead after laying down His life as the Lamb of God. \u00a0When He ascended bodily into heaven, His disciples received the promise that He would return in like manner as they had seen Him go.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Israel missed Messiah’s first coming. \u00a0Four hundred silent years before Messiah’s birth, God withdrew His presence from the most Holy place in the temple. \u00a0Ichabod, \u00a0the glory has departed<\/em>, described the temple that was now devoid of God’s presence. \u00a0The entire nation had become apostate. \u00a0Tribe by tribe Israel had turned their hearts from God’s Law. \u00a0They were still spiritually blind as a nation when Messiah Jesus appeared.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Messiah’s second coming will not be the same as His first coming. \u00a0When He comes back to earth, He will return as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. \u00a0He will come to save Israel. \u00a0Israel will face annihilation by her enemies during a time called the Tribulation Period. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first half of the Tribulation Period will be peaceful. \u00a0The false Messiah who has brought world peace will rebuild the temple. \u00a0The false and apostate religions whose holy places lie in Jerusalem will join hands together and declare the peace that so many have sought before them. \u00a0There will be a peace but not a lasting one.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the mid-point of the Tribulation Period, the false Messiah will turn on Israel to destroy her. \u00a0 Israel will have no allies, no one to help her and none to deliver her, none except the Lion of the tribe of Judah. \u00a0At a point near the end of the Tribulation Period, Israel as a nation will repent and call on Messiah Jesus for deliverance and He will come………He will come quickly.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Messiah Jesus speaking during His earthly ministry:<\/strong><\/p>\n

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how<\/span> often would<\/span> I have<\/span> gathered thy children together, as a hen\u00a0doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would<\/span> not!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. \u00a0Luke 13:34 & 35<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Note: \u00a0The seven year Tribulation Period will start after an event called The Rapture. \u00a0<\/em>The Rapture is when all true Christian believers are removed from this world\u00a0in the twinkling of an eye. This event is next on the calendar and it can happen at any time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Are you a true Christian believer?<\/strong><\/p>\n
