| Paul predicts a great falling away in 2 Thess. 2:2 before the tribulation, "Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition. . . " And John shows a great revival during it in Rev. 7:9,14 "After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands. . . So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." |
