What Jesus and the Bible Say about the End Times

Always beware when anyone tries to argue end times doctrine from what the Bible doesn't say, it is almost always false. Please establish your doctrine on what the Bible does say, "lest God reproves you and you are found a liar." (Proverbs 30:6).

Here is what the Bible actually says about the end times:

1. Jesus will return one more time (Hebrews 9:27-28)
2. The Return of Jesus will be seen by everyone (Matthew 24:24-27)
3. Jesus will take believers away from the earth (John 14:1-4)
4. Jesus says believers will face tribulation before he returns (John 16:33, Revelation 6:9-11 and 7:13-17)
5. Jesus says when he returns the door is closed tightly shut (Matthew 25:1-13)
6. When the beast is fully revealed, no one left on earth has their name in the Lamb’s Book of Life. (Revelation 13:8 and Revelation 17:8)
7. Jesus says in the end times people will panic about the waves in the sea (Luke 21:25-26)
8. The Bible says we are in a spiritual war (Ephesians 6:10-12)
9. The colors of the four Revelation horsemen are white, red, black, and pale green (Revelation 6:1-8)
10. The Bible warns against those who give false prophecy (Zechariah 13:2-6)
11. The “covenant with many” of Daniel 9:27 is firm and unbroken (Daniel 9:27)
12. Believers are spared from the wrath of God (1 Thessalonians 5:9)
13. The old earth and its remaining inhabitants will be completely destroyed (Isaiah 24:1-10)
14. God will create a new heaven and a new earth (Isaiah 65:17, Revelation 21:1, and Revelation 21:5)
15. The “Parousia” meaning Rapture and Second Coming is a single event (Matthew 24:27, 1 Thessalonians 4:15, 2 Thessalonians 2:8-9, and 2 Peter 3:4)

Here is what the Bible does not say about the end times:

1. There is no Bible verse that says “seven-year tribulation”
2. There is no Bible verse that says “rapture before the tribulation”
3. There is no Bible verse that says “peace treaty with Israel”
4. There is no Bible verse that says “broken covenant with many”
