The War.
`Therefore, son of man, prophecy and say to Gog, “Thus says the Lord God: “On that day when my people Israel dwell safely, will you not know it?
Then you will come from your place out of the far north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.` (Ez. 38: 14 & 15)
The translators have put in `riding on horses,` but that is not what the Hebrew says.
Horses - Hebrew `cuc` meaning moving rapidly.

GOD`S JUDGMENT
The War
The Prophet Joel foretells of this invasion by Russia and many other countries, against Israel. As they come down towards Israel from the north, they go through many villages destroying all in their path. Eventually they come to the mountains of Israel looking to invade God`s land and plunder it. (Joel 2: 6 - 9)
Joel graphically describes all the modern implements of a mechanised army in action. He de
OVERVIEW
We are in momentous times as God`s purposes are unfolding. Soon the Gentile`s Rule will come to an end and Israel, God`s chosen nation will rule the world. Before that happens we know that there will be a period of great conflict and trouble, as Jesus said,
`such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.` (Matt. 24: 21)
It will be a time when the rebellious nations are judged and the nation of Israel has to go under its final
God`s Word: Russia, Iran and Turkey Planning.
Iran is with the Russian Federation - `Iran...with them.` (Ez. 38: 5)
The President of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi will visit Russia early this year after receiving an invitation from Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Iran is one of the nations outside the former Soviet bloc, who will join forces with Russia.
They have said for many years that they desire to `wipe Israel off the face of the map.` So the talks with Russia could involve much m
Christ, the Head of the Body.
In this process, Christ is forming His Body of believers who will become overcomers and rule and reign with Him in the highest realm. This is the very position that Lucifer/Satan fell from.
`(God the Father)...gave Him, (Christ) to be Head over all things to the ekklesia, (called out ones) which is His Body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.` (Eph. 1: 22 & 23)
Christ`s resurrected life is shown to the demonic angels in the universa
God`s Great Kingdom - The 3 Realms.
God`s Throne.
God`s rule, is above all created realms. His throne, the symbol of His authority is established in the heaven of heavens, (ie the highest heaven). It is unchangeable and unalterable.
`The Lord`s throne is in heaven.` (Ps. 11: 4)
`Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of your kingdom.` (Ps. 45: 6)

OVERVIEW.
`All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.` (2 Tim. 3: 16 & 17)
All scripture is for us to read and learn from however, it is not all about us. God has purposes for three groups - the Body of Christ, for Israel and for the Nations.
The Lord`s Feasts are mainly to do with God`s purpose for Israel.
THE MIGHTY EARTHQUAKE
There is great darkness upon the earth when the world`s armies surround Jerusalem.
`Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will diminish their brightness.` (Joel 3: 14 & 15)
Then through the gloom they see a strange light coming closer to the earth. This supernatural sign is the great glory of the Lord and His angelic hosts leaving heaven a
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
Step 8. Digital ID.
Along with the new monetary system developing through the Central Banks, there arises a great need for personal digital identification.
One in seven people globally lack means to prove their identity. This hinders them from social services, rights as citizens and voters and participation in the modern economy.
Every day, we rely on a variety of forms of identification to go about our lives: our driver`s license, passport, work badge and building access cards,
Christ Appearing for the Body of Christ. (The Morning Star. Rev. 2: 28)
`I will give him the morning star.` (Rev. 2: 28)
The morning star is the herald of the coming day. It is seen only by the `watchers,` or the early risers.
In the spiritual heavens, Christ is also the Bright and Morning Star.
`I am the bright and Morning Star.` (Rev. 22: 16)
He is the One whom we eagerly await. We look to H
INTRODUCTION
We live in momentous times. There are many wars and rumours of wars in various places - Afghanistan, Syria, Ethiopia, Armenia, North Africa, Yemen, etc.
Now Russia has invaded the Ukraine and NATO is aiding those against Russia. Many people fear that the world may be plunged into a nuclear war.
What does God`s word say concerning these events and who is involved?
I believe God gave various Old Testament Prophets the details of coming events. Thus it is important
The 7 Trumpets: God`s Call to Repentance & Judgment.
`Then the angel took the censer;
filled it with fire from the altar, & threw it to earth.....
So the 7 angels who had the 7 trumpets prepared themselves to sound.`

Jesus Christ was appointed Priest by the Father.
`The LORD (Father) has sworn...:You (Lord Jesus) are a Priest forever...` (Ps. 110: 4)
It was a new order of priest different than the Aaronic priesthood. There were many High priests under the Aaronic order but there is only one great High Priest. Each High priest in Israel succeeded the other, with many weaknesses, but we have a High Priest, `Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever.` (Heb. 13: 8)

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
The Origins of Russia.
`Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Son of man, set your face against Gog, the land of Magog, the prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, Thus says the Lord God; behold I am against you, O Gog, the chief Prince of Meshech and Tubal.” (Ez. 38: 1 - 3)
God`s word tells of the origin of this people, their ethnic group. In Genesis 10 we see that Noah had three sons - Japheth, Ham and Shem.
They and their families went in differe
God sends Jesus for His Mature Body.
When Jesus Christ ascended to the Father`s right hand He was placed far above all, and made Head of the Body.
`God the Father....gave Him to be head over all things to the Church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.` (Eph. 1: 23)
Jesus Christ, Head of the Body.
Christ then sends His Holy Spirit to impart His divine nature within them. (2 Peter 1
Dates of Festivals.
The Key point here is to count out the days and see where they are on the Jewish calendar. These relate to the Jewish Festivals and the days from the rule of the anti-Christ.
Anti-Christ `s Image - 9th Av (Temple Desecration)
The anti-Christ gets an image of himself set up in the Jewish Temple. This is the abomination of desolation, placing himself in place of God. (Rev. 13: 14 & 15) This occurs exactly on the 9th of Av, which is the Jewish g

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
Christ`s Signature
Christ would now have us to see His eternal attributes. This is His Deity that was hidden behind the `veil` of His flesh while on earth. He is the all- knowing, all powerful One throughout time & eternity. The `I am.`
“I am the Alpha & Omega, the beginning & the End,” says the Lord,
“who is & who was & who is to come, the Almighty”
The Believer`s Armour in Christ.
`take up the whole Armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench the fiery darts of the wicked one.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the sp
OVERVIEW
God has given man the responsibility to govern, and man will be made accountable as to how he does that. As nations formed God made His own nation, Israel, to rule righteously over the other nations of the world. However Israel turned away from God and so God has given the Gentiles (other nations) opportunity to rule for a set time.
Over the centuries we have seen Gentile empires come and go. And amazingly God in His wisdom has revealed to us who the Gentile World Rulers w
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.

and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, with a vo
