'The Great Tribulation'
2Thess 2:9-10 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2Thess 2:9-10 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
As the Antichrist prays in the temple of God, a large black cloud with lightnings and thunders will hover over Jerusalem. Immediately after his prayer, fire from heaven will come down to consume thousands of animal sacrificed, while powerful lightnings and loud thunders will be seen and heard in Judea. (Devil will make these events more dramatic than those during Solomon's time, so that as many as possible will witness his lying wonders). All those watching TV or from afar will see the cloud with lightnings and thunders descending down covering the whole temple.
2Chron 7:3 When all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord on the temple, they bowed their faces to the ground on the pavement, and worshiped and praised the Lord, saying: "For He is good, for His mercy endures forever."
Similarly, the people (deceived) seeing all these signs and wonders will immediately fall to the ground and worship God whom they tnink has come down to dwell amongst men.
Cloud, Lightning enter Temple
All the Jews Priesthoods (some came out earlier from the cloud filled temple), the 10 kings (false prophets), Christian leaders (false christs) and all the other heads of their respective religion (false servants of God) standing behind the Antichrist will all be covered with cloud, lightnings and thunders. The cameras in the Holy Place and also those directed at the mercy seat of God will be black (completely filled with smoke). As the clouds, lightnings and thunders enter into the Holy Place, these will be detected by the cameras.
As the Cloud Clears Up
As the clouds begin to clear in the Holy Place, the Priesthood followed by the 10 kings and all the heads of religions (with Antichrist missing) will enter the Holy Place. All these happenings will be seen by all watching TV. As the cloud begins to thin in the Most Holy Place and whenever there is lightnings, faintly there will appear an image of a person seated on the mercy seat upon the Ark of Covenant (throne of God). As the clouds slowly disappear everyone will see the Antichrist seated on the mercy seat and immediately the Jewish Priesthood, Christian leaders and others will bow down and worship him as God. Many watching TV will also bow down to worship the Antichrist (the beast, lawless one, man of sin, etc.)
Rev 4:9-10a Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God,
How sad it will be for our Father to see His children fall at the last hurdle by worshipping the Antichrist (beast) because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. The lack of faith and love of truth kept them from learning His words esp. end-time prophecies and events.
Brethren, Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. (2Thess 2:3-4)
