How does the speaker compare the Nazi Holocaust to the coming Tribulation for Israel?
The Nazi Holocaust, though truly awful, is described as almost a Sunday school picnic compared to Israel’s coming Tribulation. During the final three and a half years, Israel will face far worse suffering, be overrun by Gentile armies, with no mercy, the city taken, and half taken captive.
Les explains that the Holocaust of Nazi Germany was awful, but compared to the last three and a half years of the Tribulation it will be almost a Sunday school picnic—nothing by comparison. He says Israel is still facing terrible days in the closing three and a half years, when Gentile armies will overrun them, the city will be taken, houses rifled, no mercy, and half the city go into captivity. Yet when it almost appears Satan will succeed in destroying Israel through these Gentile hordes, the Lord—Jehovah, the Lord Christ—will leave heaven and go forth to fight against those nations as in the day of battle.
