The left side of the image.

       The Millennium of Religious Freedom comes to an end.

       The “LITTLE TIME”

          Times like those of Noah before the Great Flood. Genesis 6, 7, and 8

          Like the times of Sodom and Gomorrah. Genesis 18:16-33; 9:1-38

          The motto of the people during the “Little Time”: “PEACE and SECURITY!” 1                          Thessalonians 5:1-11

In the center of the image. The green-blue arrow pointing upward. 

       The DAY of the LORD begins.

       The dead in Christ are resurrected. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-16

       The righteous living on earth are transformed and raptured. 1 Thessalonians 4:17-             18; 1 Corinthians 15:51-57; Revelation 11:1-13

           Two yellow arrows pointing upwardThe transformed righteous welcome the Lord             in the air, accompanying Him on His Second Coming. They remain “with Him                   forever.” They never return to earth. 1 Thessalonians 4:17

On the right side of the image, in the center, above the end of the artistic Timeline, are the words THE DAY of the LORD.

Then, at the top right, below the two graphics illustrating the Second Coming of Christ, the great event that occurs on the “Day of the Lord.”

       “…the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the               archangel, and with the trumpet call of God.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16

       Secret and silent return? NEGATIVE!

       Under the title THE DAY of the LORD in the center.

          Left behind? NONE!

       A millennium after the Day of the Lord that “will come as a thief in the night”?

       “NEGATIVE!”

The lower portion of the image. The horizontal arrow points to the left.

       “And I saw a great white throne, and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth           and the sky fled away, and there was no place found for them. I saw a new heaven         and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the

       sea was no more.” Revelation 20:11; 21:1

The graphic to the right of these words represents planet Earth in its stage of fleeing away from the Great White Throne and ensuing total disintegration, with no place found for it in the Creator God's plans for the future.
