CHUCK MISSLER:

“The more one knows about what the Bible says

about the "End Times," and the more one stays

informed on what is presently going on in the

world, the more it would appear that we are being

plunged into a period of time about which the Bible

says more than it does about any other period in

human history- including the time when Jesus

walked the shores of the Sea of Galilee or climbed

the mountains of Judea.”

PROPHESIES OF CHRISTS RETURN & THE

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples

came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these

things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and

of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that

no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ;

and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and

rumours of wars: see that ye be not

troubled: for all these things must

come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation,

and kingdom against kingdom:

kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my

shall betray one another, and shall hate

one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and

shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound,

the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same

shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be

preached in all the world for a witness unto all

nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of

desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand

in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him

understand:)

UNIVERSAL WORSHIP… ANTICHRIST…

Revelation 13:14-15 (During the Tribulation period)

14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the

means of those miracles which he had power to do in the

sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth,

that they should make an image to the beast, which had

the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the

beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and

cause that as many as would not worship the image of the

beast should be killed.

-ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT. (UNIVERSAL BUYING

& SELLING) & A UNIVERSAL MARK…

Revelation 13:16-18 (During the Tribulation period)

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free

and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their

foreheads: (Global government)

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the

mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the

number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his

number is Six hundred threescore and six.
