Revealing Times

You made a WRONG TURN on Park Ave. Now you are on Butter & Egg Drive.While I agree with your initial views on a seemingly Pre-Wrath Rapture, and that the "man of sin" is a man yet to be revealed, I can't say I agree with your views on who or what The Restrainer is.
The Holy Spirit and the church are probably the majority opinion out there, especially among Christians that believe in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture. The view that the Holy Spirit inhabiting the church is what is holding back Satan and his Antichrist; and whenever the church is raptured away, the Holy Spirit goes with them, and this removal of the church allows Satan to set up his dominion on this world.
The Holy Spirit does not leave the earth, it just reverts back to the situation it was in before the Church "MULTIPLIED" remember, God says 1 can chase 1000 and 2 can chase 10,000 {or something to that effect, SMILE}. So before the Holy Spirit fell on mankind via Jesus' blood men had to go to Jerusalem and offer a Sacrifice, only a few men like Elijah/Jeremiah/Ezekiel/David ever got close to God, after the Pentecost the Works of the Holy Spirit EXPLODED in the Churches operations, men learned how to operate in the Spirit.
After the Rapture of the Church the Holy Spirit will still be on earth just like hes always been, but his "VESSEL HE OPERATES IN" will have been taken away !! Its the Holy Spirit WORKING through the Church that blocks the Beast from going forth. Once the Church is taken to Heaven, the Beast will once again form a Worldly Kingdom of Blasphemy.
