1971 Not backed by Gold.
This was a drain to the U.S. and in the summer of 1971, President Nixon therefore refused to exchange hundreds of millions of dollars from the Bank of England for gold. He decided to `close the gold window.`
This decision is seen as a U.S. default, since it no longer could fulfil its 1944 obligations. Since 1971 the U.S. dollar although held by most countries for trade purposes, has been backed by `nothing,` just America`s promise to pay yet with more unbacked
Motivation.
With civil unrest about to become a way of life for many parts of the world including the U.S, and the pandemic making a resurgence, creating the rationale for the second wave of lock downs, the economy as we know it is being destroyed.
The goal is rather obvious - terrify the population with poverty, internal conflicts and a broken supply chain until they lobby the establishment for help. Then offer the `solution` of medical tyranny, immunity passports, marti
The Federations being brought to Judgment.
As the Lord removes the seals on the scroll we see the four different confederacies that are vying for world domination. Each are under a `strong delusion,` because they would not receive the truth.
1. British Empire - Conquering.
`Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals,
and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, with a vo
The Millennial Kingdom
After the triumph of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the defeat and disposal of every hostile & evil power, the time has come for the setting up of Christ`s Millennial Kingdom. This will be a wonderful time of blessing and fruitfulness for the nation of Israel and for those who obey Christ`s rule through them.
`Now it shall come to pass in the latter days
that the mountain of the Lord`s house shall
God`s Purpose.
Christ, the Wisdom of God.
Satan and his fallen angels are in rebellion against God. Satan desires to be as God and rule the world. He never knew the full purposes of God for if he did he would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
`We speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.` (1 Cor. 2: 6
God`s Word: The Great Company. (CSTO)
Russia`s `army,.....a great company......many people are with you. (Ez. 38: 4 & 6)
This `great company,` `many people` with the Russian army are the some of the former Soviet nations. They have come together to form an Alliance -
The Collective Security Treaty Organisation, (CSTO).
This is a Russian-led alliance with Belarus, Tajikistan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.
According to the Treaty if one member is subject
The Forming of the Body of Christ.
When Christ ascended to the Right hand of the Father, He was made Head of the Body by His Father. This was a whole new purpose of God for His Son.
` (God the Father)...raised Him (Jesus) from the dead and seated Him at the right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come .
And He put all things under His feet, and ga
Paul`s Third Missionary Journey. (AD 53 - 56) (Acts 18: 23 - 21: 26)
4. Truth - the Day of Christ.(Corinthians)
While on Paul`s third missionary journey, at Ephesus he wrote to the Corinthians. Paul wrote in detail concerning the Body of Christ and the Holy Spirit`s gifts.
`For as the Body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.` (1 Cor. 12: 12)
He reveals that the time period of the forming of the
OVERVIEW
Babylon is on its way toward popularity again. A mere 2600 years ago, Babylon stood as the greatest city on earth, the capital of the world. The grandeur of the mighty city can be imagined by gazing on the restoration that is in progress.
Babylon is where Nebuchadnezzar built the hanging gardens and where Alexander the Great died. Millennia before that, mankind attempted to build a tower `whose top may reach to heaven, and as a result, their languages were confused, and
The Future Babylon Project.
Following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the area around Babylon came under the control of US forces. Much damage was done by military vehicles; however, the US are now working with Iraq leaders to restore Babylon.
This project is called the Future Babylon project. (2009)
Those involved will involve the local community and work to create a sustainable situation. Jeff Allen of the US side said, “The idea is to develop something that is g
THE CHARIOTS OF GOD for Israel.
`The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels…` (Ps. 68: 17 KJ)
God has myriads of angels who are often described as riding in chariots. A chariot is pulled by horses which symbolically speak of power and speed.
The prophet Elijah was taken into heaven in a fiery chariot. The word `fiery` speaks of God`s glory. Elijah and Elisha were walking together when –
`suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, an
Jesus the Son named of the Father.
Jesus enters the human race through the nation of Israel. This heritage is very important as it is the legal requirement of a kinsman to bring redemption.
Then the naming of the Son was not left to human will but of God the Father. He sent an angel to Joseph to make the name known.
The function of a name is to reveal the character and purpose. And this the angel revealed to Joseph.
`An angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream saying
OVERVIEW
The world with all its international interplays can look so confusing, yet God`s word tells us that He is directing world governments, in His time frame, to His destination.
I would like to look at how the nations developed, how they ruled & then show God`s time frame for dealing with them. Many people may know the details presented, however I hope to high light a strong line concerning government. God gives that responsibility to man in early history & then shows us
Q. How did the Nations form?
After God judged mankind at Babel the people were scattered, North, South & East. They became different ethnic groups, nations speaking different languages according to Noah`s three sons.
Shem, Ham & Japheth.
`These were the sons of Shem (or Ham, or Japheth) according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, according to their nations. ` (Gen. 10: 31. 5, 20)
ARABIA: Shem`s sons settled in Arabia and to
THE GLOBAL GOVERNMENT
The force of Islam will not reach its full potential till after the Russian war. This is when God brings the Russian Federation, plus Iran, Ethiopia & Libya, down to the mountains of Israel and there judges them. Most of the armies are wiped out. This will bring a power vacuum to the Middle East, without the Bear of the North or Iran dominating.
It is then that this mediator of Islam arranges a peace treaty with Israel & his region, (Iraq, Syria &am
CONCLUSION
The nations today consider that they control their own affairs, and that they are the sole arbiter of their destiny. There is, however, a higher authority controlling the world systems and shaping the nations according to His Divine Will.
No empire has ever been established on earth without the sanction & authority of God. In His word, He has revealed His Time Frame for the Gentiles ruling the world, with each World Ruler prophesied. Then in contemporary times we see tha
CONCLUSION
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 Jesus Christ`s Throne, (seat of power) ruling
THE NORTHERN BEAR
Russia was once part of the great monolithic structure, the Soviet Union. The word `Soviet,` means council, and denotes a method of republican government. This huge Union, the USSR, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics came into being after the First World War (1917) when the revolutionaries forced the Tsar to abdicate.
It stretched from one sea (the Baltic, in the West) to the other, (the Bering sea in the East). It devoured country after country into one monolit
THE PEACE NEGOTIATOR
The Middle East has again come into focus on the world stage. There seems no solution to the violent fightings and clashes of many groups. However the reality is that this kingdom is divided, and the Sunni and Shi-ites will not have peace until their long awaited `Messiah` figure comes and joins them together.
God`s word says that it would be a `divided kingdom` partly strong, and partly weak.
` Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter`s clay and pa
THE TEMPLE SACRIFICES
Israel rejoices at the Russian Federation being defeated, and then sets about to bury the dead of the armies scattered on their mountains. It takes seven months to cleanse their land.
`For seven months the house of Israel will be burying them, in order to cleanse the land.` (Ez. 39: 12)
The month of Tishrei is seven months after the Peace treaty.
Tishrei is celebrated as the head of the Jewish year, the New Year. It has the holiest day of
The Temple Desecration.
About the middle of the tribulation a series of crises and phenomenal events are predicted to occur virtually simultaneously.
The most cataclysmic episode will be the fatal slaying of the great Global Leader by one sweep of an assassin`s sword. The world will be stunned. Governments will be in a quandary. He who everyone regarded as an invincible charismatic leader was dead. The one who alone had the practical solutions for all the international problems,
JUDGMENT
The great earthquake has caused the cities of the nations to fall, and the islands to disappear while the mountains are levelled. Civilisation and all its modern trappings will have been obliterated. Over three quarters of the population of the world will have been killed, (during the tribulation).
The Lord then comes with His angelic hosts.
`...the Son of Man .....comes in His own glory, and all the Holy angels with Him...` (Luke 9: 26)
`So the Lord of hosts will c
ROMANS - Christ is our Salvation.
The Apostle Paul writes this letter to the believers at Rome.
`Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God.....to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints;...`(Rom. 1 & 7)
In his letter, Paul sets forth that Christ is the power of God unto salvation. He shows that all mankind have sinned and are guilty before God - zealous Jews, proud Greeks, boastful Romans and a multitude of
1 & 2 CORINTHIANS - Christ is our Sanctification.
The Apostle Paul writes to the disciples that came to the Lord when he was in Corinth. He had stayed there for over a year, working as a tentmaker, with the help of Aquila and his wife, Pricilla. (Acts 18) The Jews opposed Paul so he then went to the Gentiles. They received him and learnt much of God`s word.
`And he (Paul) continued there (Corinth) a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.` (Acts 18: 11)
COLOSSIANS - Christ, Pre-eminent in All Things.
The Apostle Paul also wrote this letter to the believers in Colosse, while he was in prison. Epaphras, a faithful minister to the believers at Colosse, had come to tell Paul of the heresies that were creeping into the church there.
These heresies had broken out among the younger believers, misleading them and calling for the worship of angels and a strict observance of Jewish ceremonies. This heresy was a mixture of Jewish, Greek a
