THE WORLD SYSTEM
The Origin.
When God created the angels He made a special angel called Lucifer. He had such beauty, splendor, with great wisdom. He was the anointed one that brought forth the praises and worship from the myriads of angels by the music that was created within him.
Lucifer was actually a kingpriest. He ruled over a third of the angels and he was able to go right into God`s very presence. However, even though he was perfect in all his ways, there came a time
The Believer`s Weapons in Christ.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the Mighty Conqueror. He has overcome sin, death, hell, the devil, and the world system. Now as Head of the Body, He leads us in triumph as He enables us to overcome also.
`Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, …` (2 Cor. 2: 14)
Throughout our journey in life, we face many trials, temptations, and tribulations. But in them all as we look to the Lord, He takes us through.
`In the world y
The Convergence of God`s 3 Purposes.
Very soon, at God`s appointed time He will bring a convergence of the 3 groups –
- The Body of Christ – coming to maturity and then raptured.
- Israel – as a nation repenting and turning to God.
- The Nations – beginning of the judgments by God upon them.
This appointed time for the convergence begins with the period of time known as the Day of the LORD. This is the time of God`s judgment u
The Times and Seasons.
When Paul spoke to his disciples in Thessalonica he said to them –
`But concerning the times and seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.` (1 Thess. 5: 1)
Paul had spent time with these disciples, living among them and thus he would have shared what God had revealed to him concerning the `times and seasons`, especially for the Body of Christ.
The Times and Seasons in Greek have the same meaning but can differ according to t
The Day of Christ.
God revealed to the Apostle Paul His appointed time for the Body of Christ. It is called the Day of Christ. It starts when Jesus sent His Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost and continues till the Rapture. During the Day of Christ, He is building and maturing His Body.
`And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, …..for the equipping of the saints ….for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the
The Flood
Adam and Eve had not trusted God but instead listened to Satan, thus they came under his influence. Over time the generations that followed became very wicked.
`Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.` (Gen. 6: 5)
God decided to destroy man and beast whom He had created all except Noah, (and his family) who found grace in the eyes of the LORD. God told Noah to build
The Line in the Sand.
The end of the Ottoman Empire came after WW 1. They surrendered to the Allies (Britain and France) in 1918. Despite fighting alongside the Allies, the Arab patriots felt betrayed as they did not receive what they expected. The governments of the European Entente (an informal alliance) had concluded a secret treaty before the armistice, the Sykes-Picot Agreement, partitioning the Middle East amongst themselves.
After the Ottomans withdrew, Arab leaders proclaimed
Israel becomes a Nation.
Although God`s people Israel were scattered among the nations of the world God gave them a promise that He would bring them back to their own land.
`Thus says the LORD God; “Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them every side and bring them into their own land.` (Ez. 37: 21)
The Arabs in the Middle East however opposed the establishment of a Jewish state. But amid these tensions Israel
Russia against Israel.
After the cease fire Israel will `dwell in safety.` This is their condition when the next attack comes, this time from the far North.
God brings an end to the Ukraine Russian war. He `put hooks in the leader`s jaws` as it were to bring them down to the mountains of Israel. This indicates that God initiates this next war against His people. God`s purpose is to bring His people to their knees to call out to Him,
“`Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to me wi
THE AFTERMATH
This amazing victory by the Lord against the enemies of God`s people and his land of Israel has some far reaching consequences.
Israel
Israel repents and turns again to God. (Joel 2: 12 - 19) They begin their sacrifices after they have cleansed the land by burying the bodies from the Russian war.
` For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, in order to cleanse the land.` (Ez. 39: 12)
The Nations
The nations of the world
THE DETAILS
There are many details in God`s word regarding the 7 years.
- The signing of the Peace Covenant/treaty.

Mark - to the Romans, revealing Jesus as the Son of God, the Heir.
This account of Jesus was written to Roman readers. The Roman was different from the Jew. His genius was his strong common sense. His religion must be practical. He would have no interest in tracing beliefs back into the past. Legal genealogies and fulfilments of prophecy would leave him cold.
He might say, “I know nothing of your scriptures, and care nothing for your peculiar notions: but I should be glad to hear a pla
CHRIST IN HIS HEAVENLY GLORY
The predominant aim of Revelation is the setting forth the splendours of the Son of Man, & to reveal His glorious person. There are four visions of the Son of Man as He is known in the heavenly realm & each vision in turn carries through to completion one aspect of the fourfold ministry of Christ which He exercised when on earth. His Kinship was expressed in Matthew, His Heirship in Mark, His Mediatorship in Luke, & His Judg
REVELATION - Vision 1: Christ the Head of the Body. (Rev. 1 - 3)
The Apostle John was a prisoner on the island of Patmos for his belief in the Lord Jesus Christ. As he was waiting on the Lord he sees a vision of the glorified Lord. His appearance is like the sun shining in full strength.
`Then I (John) turned to see the voice that spoke to me....One like the Son of Man, ....His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength.` (Rev. 1: 12 & 16)
Then John giv

SUMMARY
Man`s Government
Man rules through his laws and controls others through manipulation of money - usury. This brings credit and then inflation. It is self seeking, greed and envy.
`If you have bitter envy and self seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.`(James 3: 15)
God`s Government
God`s rule through Jesus is righteous and just. He is worthy to rule
Christ, at the Father`s Right Hand.
When Jesus Christ ascended to the Father`s right hand, the Father said -
“Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” (Ps. 110: 1)
The Nations.
The Roman Empire eventually broke into many tribal groups that fought over the centuries. Finally nations emerged till today we see three great Federations that are forming into the final Gentile Global Government. A fourth Federation is emerging that will control the othe
Restoring Rulership in the Third Heaven.
Jesus Christ is visibly crowned.
The first realm of God`s rulership to be restored is in the third heaven, the angelic realm where Lucifer was cast out. There has been no visible rulership since then. God the Father has appointed His Son to be the Kingpriest, the visible ruler there. It is called Mount Zion, representing rulership, and is in the highest realm.
God says, `I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.` (Ps. 2: 6)
No angel
SUMMARY
The colossal program of the majestic eternal purposes, which the Lord Jesus Christ brings into effect, surpasses anything else anywhere in the whole realm of knowledge.
Christ`s rulership in every realm is established, as well as the complete restoration and His rightful possession of all things.
Every group have been carefully prepared and are an integral part of God`s overall eternal purposes -
In the 3rd heaven is Jesus Christ`s Throne, (seat of power). Wit
4. Growing in Truth. (1900 - 2000)
At the beginning of the 1900`s there was another significant stage of growth in the Body of Christ. God`s Holy Spirit awakened people to a deeper understanding and walk with Him.
Then in the `60`s & `70`s across the Body of Christ many people came to a fuller understanding of the Holy Spirit.
`there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit...for one is given the word of wisdom...to another the word of knowledge...faith.....

The Day Approaching.
`But concerning the times and seasons, brethren,....For you yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.....But you brethren are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.` (1 Thess. 5: 1, 2, & 4)
`...but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.` (Heb. 10: 25)
We are seeing the Day of the Lord approaching very fast. The world is in turmoil, peopl
Summary.
The pieces of the puzzle eventually all come together to be an effective tool in the Global Government`s hands for ultimate power & control over the world.
The Executive of the Global Monetary System will have issued -
1. A personal identification number to all citizens,
2. Authorisation for people who are wanting to `buy and sell.`
This authorisation comes from their central bank when using their digital currency.
3. Pergamos – False Doctrines. (Rev. 2: 12 – 17)
Christ is revealed to these believers, as their judge, with the authority of His Word.
`He who has the sharp two-edged sword.` (Rev. 2: 12)
He commends them for professing His name & not denying their faith in Him. However, in their midst are those teaching wrong doctrine.
The Doctrine of Balaam – Worldly (2 Peter 12 – 22)
Christ`s Holy Priests. (Pillar in God`s Temple. Rev.3: 12)
`He who overcomes,
I will make a pillar in the temple of my God,
and he shall go out no more.`
(Rev. 3: 12)
The Temple was Israel`s storehouse of national treas
Christ Fulfills the Legal Credentials.
We know that the Father gave Christ the authority to execute the judgments. However to do this Christ needed to fulfil the legal requirements to be ruler over the kings of the earth. Israel was promised that they would be the ruling nation over the other nations of the world.
Thus Christ had to come from Israel and from the ruling house of David. Christ fulfilled these requirements and then prevailed against the enemy. He is worthy t
