The Lord is Coming as a Thief in the Night

Posted by Robert Begnaud in Uncategorized

I feel so sorry for the masses of proclaiming Christians today, most of whom the Lord will appear as a Thief in the Night. The false pre-tribulation rapture doctrine, dispensationalism, has the masses of confessing Christians solidly positioned for failure in the upcoming events as prophecy unfolds, Christians today simply do not know what to expect. They are paying attention to all of the wrong things, and this is by the design of Lucifer himself, the King of Babylon. What I aim to do in this short article, is simply state some irrefutable facts of what the scriptures teach on this subject, in hopes of directing your attention properly in understanding what is ahead as bible prophecy comes to pass. I also wish to point out the misdirection and false teachings of the enemy, Lucifer, Satan, the King of Babylon, in how he has cleverly disguised the meaning and purpose of the “Great Tribulation” and “The Great and Terrible day of the Lord”

The Great Tribulation

The time of “Jacob’s Trouble” is NOT the “Great Tribulation”. The time of Jacob’s Trouble is found in

Jer. 30:7 “Alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.”

The time of Jacob’s Trouble, of which he shall be saved out of, is clearly “The great and terrible day of the Lord.” This whole idea of “The Great Tribulation” being the same as “The Great and Terrible day of the Lord” is a misdirection from Satan so that you will be sure, and safely in the camp of those who the Lord will appear as a Thief in the Night. The whole teaching which claims “Jacob’s Trouble” is the last seven years of Daniel’s prophecy for the purposes of saving the secular nation of Israel is a misdirection. Even if you believe that the secular nation of Israel shall all be saved, of which there is no present evidence, Jewish people are dying and going to hell today just like all nations; even if you believe that, the scriptures clearly put “Jacob’s Trouble” at the END of “The Great Tribulation”.

Deu. chapter 4 speaks of this, they turned to idols and were taken into captivity.(Deu 4:30) When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;This tribulation is like no other, Jesus speaks of it in Matt. 24, (the Olivet discourse) – Christians hating each other, people who kill you and think they are doing God’s service, they don’t need to physically kill you, hating your brother IS murder. Those of you who have been kicked out of Churches where you have done no wrong, you have been murdered – you are in “The Great Tribulation”, the fact that you have a thousand different teachers all telling you that they are like Christ and none of them agree – you are in great tribulation – the fact that you have NO place to fellowship with other true Christians – there is only the Harlot Church system you have left – you are in great tribulation – the fact that Lucifer, the King of Babylon is sitting in the congregation on the sides of the north (Isa. 14), proves that you, as a true follower of Christ, are in captivity and in Great Tribulation. To those who’s fight is not carnal, caring about physical food and not spiritual food, caring about physical buildings and not the spiritual building, which is the body of Christ built on a sure foundation, you are at a time of Great Tribulation.(Psa 11:3) If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

We are certainly at a time of great trouble and tribulation at this present time if you care about the things that are eternal, if your fight is spiritual and your weapons are spiritual, you are at a time of Great Tribulation like we have never seen. But if you care about physical comfort, food, houses, relationships friends, carnal families, it makes a whole lot of sense that you are sitting around waiting for some future great tribulation which will never come – only that great and terrible day of the Lord which will appear to you as a thief in the night, as a snare.(Luk 17:25-30) But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

The scriptures could not be more clear – The Lord is revealed at the END of the Great Tribulation. All of the signs regarding his coming are AFTER “The Great Tribulation” – After the great tribulation the sun will turn to darkness and the moon to blood (Joel 2:31) – After the great tribulation Jacob is released from captivity, Babylon is destroyed and Jacob is saved (Jer. 30:3) – After the great tribulation Jacob is in labor travailing with child (Jer. 30:6). It’s really easy, just look throughout all of the scriptures to find where one is in labor and having a child and in pain to be delivered – look for all of the references to the sun turning to darkness or black and the moon to blood and Babylon being destroyed – it’s ALWAYS at the end of the Great Tribulation. The Great Tribulation is a season – The day of the Lord is a Great Day of the Wrath of God – they are clearly NOT the same thing.

Let me also add a few thoughts I have on “the four horses of the apocalypse”, as it is so falsely called – again – Misdirection. The White Horse is Christendom – most of the whole world was conquered for Christendom historically – The Red Horse is Communism – they killed more people than any movement in history – The Black Horse is Greedy Capitalism – they have historically stolen from the poor – The Pale horse, or more accurately translated, The Green Horse is Islam – they do control about 25 percent of the world’s population. Again, The Great Tribulation get’s more intense at the end, but tribulation has been going on for many years, but the day of the Lord is coming as a thief in the night, as a snare to those who live on the earth.(1Th 5:2-4) For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord

In the Day of the Lord the wicked are destroyed, but the righteous are saved, it’s a day of blessing for those who endure unto the end and await for his coming, but a day of great wrath to false Christians and ungodly men.(Amo 5:18-20) Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

In the day of the Lord Babylon shall be completely destroyed (Dan. Ch. 2) – the rock that is hewn without the hand of man – Jesus Christ and his lively stones, the saints will strike the toes of Iron and Clay, and the Kingdom of Christ shall be established in the earth which shall never be destroyed. Those who belong to Christ will be delighted at his coming and brought to glory, but to those who he appears as a Thief, will lose everything.(Isa 66:5) Hear the word of the LORD, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.(2Ti 4:8) Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

The Day of the Lord is a Day of Victory for the faithful Saint and a day of defeat and shame for the false Christian, the Harlot Church System and the wicked man

Dear Brother, Sister, Saint of the most high, the Devil, your adversary, does NOT want you to know the promises of God to you, he does not want you to be comforted as you see the council of the Lord and his plan. This false teaching has many of you looking for a great tribulation, rather than the day of the Lord. Many of you are buying prep items for the great tribulation, rather than storing up a sure foundation as mentioned in Timothy. (1Ti 6:19) Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

While many of you are ready to die in a great tribulation, a famine of natural food, pestilence, earthquakes, being bereaved of the carnal things you need, having your carnal head cut off, you fail to see that the very essence of Christ is NOT carnal but spiritual. The worst thing that can happen to a Christian is being bereaved of spiritual things, where our fight is not carnal, but spiritual. Most of you would have no clue of a spiritual battle in where Christians lose and thus become needy and poor spiritually, destitute of even the love of the brethren, a far worse plight than any carnal destitution is a spiritual destitution. Why do you think that Christians today do not understand this concept?

(Rev 3:14-20) And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Saints, this word is true, I have faithfully spoken what is right. I know this isn’t what you were taught in the harlot Church system, it wasn’t what you were taught by the smartest, the most trained doctors of theology you have submitted your ears to. I wonder why that is??? I leave you with this final scripture of promise in hopes that you will begin to seek the one who inspired it, and receive these most precious promises, and finally receive the comforts and warnings to your soul in these last days.

(Isa 13:3-13) I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness. The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle. They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land. Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt: And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
