What is The Purpose of the Bible's End Times Tribulation?

To sieve the people

Your repentance in time. Or else ...

To build strength in trials and tribulations through tests and suffering. Then for you to pick your side and to stick by it.

The Purpose of the Great Tribulation

The purpose of this ordeal, the Time of Jacobs Trouble, is to drive Israel en extremis, to return to God: I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly (Hosea 5:15). Interesting Old Testament passage: God says, I will go and return to my place To return, He must have left it! Watch those untils in the text: they often denote significant milestones. The term offence is singular and specific. Apparently, a prerequisite condition for the Second Coming of Christ is for Israel to acknowledge her Messiah and to petition His return. (This would help explain why Satan continues to be so intensely committed to the Jews destruction.)

"The National Regeneration of Israel: Israels required confession (Lev 26:40-42; Jer 3:11-18; Hos 5:15) and pe-titioning the Messiah (Zech 12:10) inaugurates the final three days of the campaign with pleading and petition (Hos 6:1-3; Isa 53:1-9), fulfilling Romans 11:25-27 (see also Zech 12:10-13:9; Joel 2:28-32; Isa 64:1-12; Ezek 20:33f; Ps 79:1-13; 80:1-19). When the faithful remnant petitions Jesus to return, He comes to rescue them."

Think of it as a carrot on a stick.

The Purpose of The Tribulation is
that the Gentiles reject God
and that the Jews accept Their God.

Israel rejected their Messiah.
Israel's Messiah went to the Gentiles.
When the full number of Gentiles come in to complete The Church,
then it is again God's time for Israel and her Messiah.

Side effects of galactic reality changes X with Satans last attempt to destroy creation.

Jesus comes back to the Jews!

To haunt them LOL

Because this god that people choose to worship is nothing but an egotistical tyrant that throws a tantrum like a spoiled infant if he doesn't get his way.

This!

Harvest time. Man has progressed to the point where he can manufacture life thus defacing God's creation and His primary witness to unbelievers.

.

very well put...

and backed up here!

7O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, t[/b]hrough all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee. 8O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. 9To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him; 10Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets. 11Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him. 12And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem. 13As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth. 14Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.

To be forgiven by the Lord not only do you have to obey God's law..

But believe the scripture of the Messiah to come

i.e. Jesus

It was written to scare the feeble minded so they would abandon there intelligence and believe the most childish stories.(The Bible}

The purpose of the GREAT TRIBULATION is to cleanse the earth for the return of Jesus Christ to reign as King of Kings and LORD of Lords.

what a fool you are.

The Truth is painful

But you, not knowing the truth, are the one who must know the pain.

This is only one half of the story.
The other half is the wrath of God, being poured out upon the unrepentant people of the world. The same unrepentant people who will be persecuting both Israel and Christians,( up until the rapture of the church that is).

It weeds out the protestants obsessed with it from the true followers of Christ who listen to the Lords words that we should trust in him and not make false prophesy about apocalypse. That is its' purpose. You are the chaff.

at the creation of man lucifer's prophecy was...

"from sin the son of man would fall"
"He'll sin and sin and sin again" prophecy

it was fought in heaven that the son of man never would repent from sin.
so that became the law in which he is to be made.

but lucifer so hated man because he wanted to be the ruler over man and that request was denied,
so lucifer was going to make sure that man did fall.

and because of what he had done in the garden to make his prophecy correct man did fall because of lucifers influence.
so he too was banished,

so lucifer gathered those loyal to him to argue with the father over his banishment and they to were also banished.

so it was given for us the free will to choose between whom we would serve.
the father only wants those that want him.

the judgments of the end times arent for the people that want to return to the father,

the judgments are for those that have chosen to follow lucifer that became corrupt and seek to hinder and force from the free will of those seeking to return to the father.

the wrath will be upon the people that do not choose the father and continue serving lucifer in their wicked ways.
that believe lucifers lies and are rewarded well for betraying their brothers

the wicked will hide their faces when judgment comes.

I believe only Jesus Christ. For what do you condemn me?

there is no "purpose"


it is the cyclical return of an incoming celestial body.

Punishment/Justice.

notice the story follows a life.

creations (both) existence/experiences (life) destruction (death)

cycles. it defines one of the many cycles everything goes through.


destruction is required for new creation to occur.

We are already about halfway through if not further. Many are being called back to God. Back to the true word which was already written on our hearts.

BTW Christs name was never Jesus. It was Yeshua. "YHWH is a Saving Cry" Using the correct name is important. When you call out to someone who while living is named Bob do call out to Bob or Bill? It matters.

Another year of the trib turns on 9/25. Rosh Hashanah. Jewish New Year. The true lost Jews will not be found in just Israel. They will be found hidden among all humans all over the world. Many wre not born Jewish in this life, never the less, it is in their Blood, their DNA.
