SATAN IS ABOUT TO HAVE A REALLY BAD TIME.............

The first bad thing that is about to happen to Satan is the Archangel Michael is going to declare war against Satan in heaven which will result in Satan and his fallen angels being cast out of heaven, and down to earth. Upon arriving on earth, Satan is so upset that he gets really angry, and looks around for someone or somebody to take his anger out on. He can't find the Body of Christ Church to vent His anger on because while Satan was being evicted from heaven to earth by the Archangel Michael, Jesus was resurrecting & rapturing His Body of Christ Church from earth to heaven AT THE SAME TIME.

After arriving on earth Satan has only the Hebrew Woman to vent his anger on, so then Satan decides to resurrect his anti-Christ to help him vent "his great wrath" upon all the left-behind world, which he does. God allows Satan, his anti-Christ, and his False Prophet "to continue" venting Satan 's "great wrath" upon all the left- behind world for the next forty-two ( 42 ) months ( 3 1/2 years ) until the appointed time for the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ who will then put an end to it AT THE END of the forty-two month ( 3 1/2 years ) long  Great Tribulation upon all of the left-behind whole world. 

When Jesus arrives on earth at His Second Coming after the forty-two month ( 3 1/2 years ) long Great Tribulation, the very first thing He does is bind Satan in chains, and cast him into the bottomless pit for the next one thousand years. The very next thing Jesus does is to cast both the anti-Christ, and the False Prophet into the Lake of Fire which burns forever.  

ACCORDING TO :

Revelation 12:7-11 ( War begins in heaven )

"And there was WAR in heaven .........."

Revelation 12:10 ( the rapture happens )

"Now is come SALVATION...."

Revelation 12:12 ( Satan is cast out of heaven at the same time the Church is raptured into heaven )

"Therefore, REJOICE ye heavens, and you that dwell in them ( after the rapture ). WOE to the ( left-behind ) inhabitants of the earth, and of the sea ! For the devil has come down to you HAVING GREAT WRATH ( great tribulation ) because he knows that he has but a short time."

Revelation 13:5 ( the Great Tribulation lasts 3 1/2 years )

"And power was given unto him TO CONTINUE forty-two months ( 3 1/2 YEARS ).  ( Meaning Satan is allowed "to continue" for 42 months or 3 1/2 years  after being cast down to earth.)

SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT: 

The length of the GREAT TRIBULATION is the SAME  forty-two months ( 3 1/2 years ) that Satan is present ON EARTH with his GREAT WRATH. The Great Tribulation upon the left-behind whole world  BEGINS when Satan arrives on earth, and IT ENDS forty-two months ( 3 1/2 years ) later when Jesus arrives on earth at His Second Coming, and casts Satan into the bottomless pit for the next one thousand years.

 The Great Tribulation is NOT seven years long,  and there is NO SCRIPTURE  that speaks of a seven-year-long tribulation. That is misguided  UNSOUND doctrine according to :

2 Timothy 4:3-4

"For the TIME WILL COME when they will NOT ENDURE sound doctrine..........."

According to Your Holy Word, come Lord Jesus !
