From Daniel to Revelation: What the Bible Really Says About the Great Tribulation
Rumours are swirling again. Some are claiming that September 23, 2025 will be the day of the rapture. You’ve seen the YouTube countdowns, TikTok predictions, and fear-driven posts. But before we get swept up in speculation, we need to ask: What does the Bible actually say about the tribulation?
In this first episode of our new series Rapture Rumors and the Real Return of Christ, we cut through the noise and return to Scripture itself. From Daniel’s prophecy of the seventy weeks, to Jesus’ words in Matthew 24, to the vision of the saints in Revelation 7, and the promise of tribulation in John 16 — we anchor ourselves in the Word of God, not the rumours of men.
We’ll explore:
- What the Bible means by tribulation (θλῖψις).
- The difference between everyday tribulation and the Great Tribulation.
- God’s purposes in tribulation: refining His people, judging the nations, and magnifying Christ.
- How these truths give us peace and courage in a world obsessed with end-times speculation.
This is not about timetables. It’s about truth. It’s not about panic. It’s about preparation. And it’s not about fear. It’s about fixing our eyes on the Lamb who has overcome the world.
