  2. So, I’ll take a shot at your question.

    “How is it possible that those living on the earth just prior to the day of the
    Lord will be comfortable and declaring “peace and safety”?”

    1. The anti-christ will be everything everyone (except Christians) will want and be looking for. Revelation 13.4 People worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, “Who is like the beast? Who can wage war against it?” In my opinion, he will come on the scene (maybe with the world at the brink of destruction) and will have the answers for everything. He will save the world from financial ruin, deliver peace, stop climate change, end poverty, etc.). Who knows? He will have to offer the world something extraordinary in order to win over the diverse countries and cultures (Who is like the beast, who can wage war against it?). People will feel safe as problems are solved. The 7 year middle east peace treaty could be part of it.
    2. The Christians and other people of faith will feel the wrath of the oppressive anti-Christ such that like you say “People are rejected, fired, hated, beaten, persecuted for their beliefs, opinions, color of their skin, political affiliation.” The rebellion will be directed toward those that do not get in line (with LGBT, abortion, etc.).
    3. As we know now, the media has the power to control what the “truth” is. If it wasn’t for FoxNews we probably would not know about the incredible violence being poured out in our cities. So, there will be many declaring “peace and safety” because they do not know the persecution that the anti-christ may be inflicting. To most non-Christians they will see the utopian leader that they have been longing for all these years and will declare peace and safety.

    Anyway, these are just my wild thoughts and speculations.

    Have a nice day Pastor Scott

  3. I agree with you Glenn. The bigger point for me was how could the world be so happy why religious people are persecuted. I think it is because the saints will be seen as obstacles to peace
