The second coming of Jesus Christ to earth will happen in this generation. But how do we know this is true?
When the Lord shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory. He will regard the prayer of the destitute and not despise their prayer. This shall be written for the generation to come. The generation to come is now, in these later days, the last generation that will see Jesus Christ appear in glory. This generation will also see Zion get built up. In 1948, Israel-Zion became a nation in a single day, which has not happened before in the history of Earth. In 1950, in Israel-Zion, the Law of Return was made, granting every Jew in the world the right to settle in Israel.
This is called the Aliyah. How long is a generation? The years of our life are 70. or even by reason of strength 80, yet their span is but toil and trouble. They are soon gone, and we fly away. Years 70 to 80 are when toil and trouble will come. Jacob’s trouble, or the tribulation, is seven years, which means the last seven years of this generation will be the tribulation. From 1950 to 2031 is a complete 80 years, which means seven years before, is 2024, when the Tribulation will begin. This means the Rapture to Heaven will happen in 2024 and the Second Coming to Earth in 2031. Why won’t we be here for the Tribulation?
Come, my people, enter your chambers and shut your doors behind you.
Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment until the indignation is past. The indignation is the tribulation, which isn’t meant for us, because it’s Jacob’s trouble, not ours. It’s wrath that will cause hardened hearts to finally believe in him. Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself, that where I am, there you may be also. The rapture to heaven is when he brings us to our mansions, which are our chambers in heaven. We will be hidden here during the tribulation.
We can see that he’s coming soon because of the build-up of Zion. In 1967, Israel’s Zion got Jerusalem as its capital because of the Six-Day War. In 1973, Israel’s Zion got expanded because of the Yom Kippur War. What’s significant about Yom Kippur is that on the Day of Atonement, there is a Jubilee of Liberty every 50 years, and 50 years from 1973 is 2030 to 2031. When Jesus Christ comes back in 2031, He will expand the territory of Israel and the Temple Mount, the millennial rain where the new temple will be and more recently, in 2023, Palestine went to war with Israel because of the red heifers Israel will use to purify people to allow them to go to the temple that they will have during the tribulation.
Now learn this parable from the fig tree.
When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So, You also, when you see all these things, know that it is near at the doors. Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. We are the generation that saw Israel, which represents the fig tree, become a nation, and Elia, which represents the beginning of a fig tree. This means summer the tribulation is near. I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world to try those who dwell on the earth. You don’t have to be on earth for the hour of trial.
All you have to do right now is believe and trust in Jesus Christ to be saved, not because of your works, but because of his abundant grace. He is the one who went to the cross because of his love for us. forgiveness of our sins and rose again because believers have right standing with God. Believing that his sacrifice or his blood isn’t enough is how someone can be left behind because of their unbelief. Unbelief causes someone to work for salvation instead of receiving it through faith. His finished work is enough to save us by grace through faith without our works. Grace is an unmerited favor. that we cannot earn or deserve.
