Introduction Reasons Advanced to Support the
View that the Tribulation Precedes the Resurrection of the
Saints
|
|
PART I.
|
|
Section One
|
| Difficulty in Fixing the Sequence
of Future Events |
|
| A Lengthened Period Foretold
between the Lord's Ascension and His Return. The bearing of
that fact on the Question under Consideration |
|
| If the Disciples Whom the Lord
Addressed in Matt. 24, 25 were "Christians Proper,"
would that indicate that the Church must pass through the
Great Tribulation? |
|
| Christ Spoke to His Disciples of
Events which were to occur before His Return. Does this
indicate that His Coming is not now an Every Day Possibility? |
|
| The "Day of the Lord"
must be preceded by the Advent of Antichrist. What is the
bearing of that fact upon the Coming of Christ for His Saints? |
|
Section
Two
|
| "Tribulation" is the
Appointed Portion for the Disciples of Christ in the World;
but "the Great Tribulation" is not appointed for
them |
|
| "When ye see these things
BEGIN. . . Your Redemption draweth nigh" |
|
| "To You who are Troubled,
Rest with Us" |
|
| The "Hope" of the Church |
|
PART II.
|
|
Section
Three
|
| Reasons Deduced from Scripture for
Expecting the Coming of Christ and the Resurrection of Saints
before the Great Tribulation |
|
| The Judgment Seat of Christ before
which "We must ALL Appear" |
|
| Analogy to the First Coming, Those
that "Looked for Redemption in Israel" |
|
| The Great Tribulation, a Part of
the National History of Israel |
|
Section
Four

| The Prospect placed before the
Saints |
|
| Their Prospect is Immediate |
