In this message, we will discuss the recent crackdowns against Christians in China and the chilling Social Scoring system that they have set up that could be yet another “Prophetic Prelude” to what we read about in Revelation Chapter 13.

Remember peoples…..The Son doesn’t rise and set on the US. Prophecy was and is being fulfilled elsewhere in the world. Here too as well. We (Americans) have a front row seat to the great apostasy. God be with my Chinese brothers and sisters!
I think that what is happening today in China is very relevant to the great tribulation and that Christians will be going through this time before Christ’s return for his elect (Christians).
My understanding is that many Christians agree with the thought that Christ will return in a pre-tribulation time frame, yet if one reads Matthew 24:15-22, it says you (Christians) will see the abomination of desolation stand in the holy place (in verse Matthew 24:15) and (in verses Matthew 24:21 and 22) it also says that Christian people will be going through great tribulation, but that for the sake of the elect those days will shortened.
In my current opinion and impression of what Matthew 24 is saying is that this is not referring to a pre-tribulation rapture and instead it is saying that Christians will be living through some days (unknown number of days) of the great tribulation before Christ returns.
Matthew 24:15-22 KJV
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Video on this, although I have not listened to all of this, it seems to be a good reference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zx3wftc-5jA
