"And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these th
ings begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near."(Luke 21:25-28)
The coming of the lawless one (Antichrist) will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.(2 Thess. 2:9-10) It will be "such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now,nor ever shall" (Matthew 24:21)
The Church Age is the period of time from Pentecost (Acts 2) to the Rapture (foretold in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18). It is called the Church Age because it covers the period in which the Church is on earth. The Church is composed of those individuals who have by faith accepted Christ Jesus as their Savior and Lord (John 1:12; Acts 9:31)
The Church Age will end when God’s people are raptured out of the world and taken to be with the Lord Jesus forever.(1 Corinthians 15:51-57)
God is characterized by grace, mercy and love, but He is also a God of perfect justice, righteousness, and holiness. Therefore, He must deal with sin. His justice demands it. Even His love compels it. "He [God] has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness" (Acts 17:31)
