7 Points on the End Times (plus 3 bonus points)

“In the last days of Narnia, far up to the west beyond Lantern Waste and close beside the great waterfall, there lived an Ape.”

Thus begins C. S. Lewis’ “The Last Battle,” the final book in his 7 volume children’s classic, Chronicles of Narnia series. In it Lewis depicts the last days struggle on planet earth that the Bible explains will take place prior to and including the return of Jesus Christ.

One of the primary characters about to enter on to the scene of this drama is the man of sin, Antichrist (represented by the “Ape” in The Last Battle). (2 Thessalonians 2:3) And there are a whole host of other things that surround Antichrist’s appearance and his eventual destruction that, quite frankly, we all just need to know about and have a handle on as we come upon the darkest days humankind has ever known. (But it’s always darkest before the dawn!)

I do my best to chronicle some of the truths that surround what the Bible also refers to as “the day of the Lord” (2 Peter 3:10) in the following 7 points on the end times. It was first broadcast on Twitter in 7 tweets (a “tweetcast” ~ each is 140 characters or less). So if any of you got the chance to already see it, I’ve added 3 bonus points you won’t want to miss at the end.

And so here we go with…
