Thlipsis:
Renewed hatred,
Idolatrous worship,
Bent on death,
Unorthodox,
Lawlessness.

The Man of Sin
In lies and death.
Omnipresent-
Not yet.

Revelation 1:9- “I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus…”

Revelation 2:9, 10- “I [Jesus] know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich)...and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death and I will give you the crown of life.”
