Why does the Church Age have to be taken out?
After it is complete, the Church Age is taken out because it is completely insulated from everything written to the nation of Israel under prophecy. Then the next events follow: the Antichrist, the seven-year tribulation, the Second Coming, the millennial kingdom, and eternity.
Les explains that the Church Age pertains to Gentiles, while the Old Testament is not the Church's doctrine but is for learning, as Romans 15:4 says. Because the Church Age is completely insulated from everything written to the nation of Israel under prophecy, it has to be taken out once it is complete. After that, the next great event is the appearance of the Antichrist, then the seven years of tribulation according to God's timetable coming from Daniel. At the end of those seven years, Christ returns at the Second Coming. He then sets up His Kingdom with His capital in Jerusalem, and that begins the 1,000-year millennial reign, after which we go into eternity. Les says this is basically the whole scheme from Genesis to Revelation.
