Prophecies to be Fulfilled

Mark of the Beast
Revelation 13:15-1815He was granted power to give breath to the image of the
beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not
worship the image of the beast to be killed.
16He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark
on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17and that no one may buy or sell except one
who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the
beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
Revelation 14:9-11
9Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone worships
the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10he
himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full
strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone
in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11And the smoke
of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who
worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
Revelation 15:2
2And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who have the
victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his
name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.
The Second Coming of Jesus Christ
Matthew 24:29-3129"Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.31And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Mark 13:24-27
24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; 25the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 26Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27And then He will send His angels, and gather together His [a]elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven
. 2 Peter 3
3Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, 3knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, 4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation." 5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,
6by which
the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. 7But the heavens and
the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the
day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.8But, beloved, do not forget this one
thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is
longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to
repentance. 10But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the
heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both
the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. 11Therefore, since all
these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and
godliness, 12looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of
which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with
fervent heat? 13 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens
and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward
to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;
15and consider
that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation-as also our beloved
brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you, 16as also in
all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand,
which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of
the Scriptures.17You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest
you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;
18 but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.
1 Thessalonians 5:1-9
5But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3 For when they say, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. 7For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. 8But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. 9For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Mark 13:24-27
24"But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; 25the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 26Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27And then He will send His angels, and gather together His [a]elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven.
Revelation 19:11-16
11Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:
