Episode 1137: Why will the Lord the Antichrist to rule over the earth?

Hello everyone. In this morning's Bible study we discover God's intent and purpose for the Church.

Is the church known in the Old Testament? Yes and No.

What do you mean by yes and no, Kevin? What I mean is that the Lord has always made known that He will save Gentiles who are classified as non-Jews.

Are all non-Jews members of the "Church"? No. The scriptures are divided into dispensations or ages. These 10 ages reveal the entirety of God's plan of reconciliation. Each of these ages have their own purposes in the plan of God.

Then how does this present Church has to do with the 7-year Tribulation? Nothing. Nothing? Yes, nothing. The 7-year Tribulation is the final week of years deriving from the 70 weeks of years given by God to the prophet Daniel.

If we simply allow the Bible to interpret the Bible then we will not be confused regarding the plans of God because they are revealed to us in the scriptures.

Today's study is 1 hour and 26 minutes in duration. I have broken it into nine segments. This is segment 4 of 9 titled The Lord's intent and purpose for the Church. Part 4
