  1. There is an awesome detail concerning the two witnesses that I have never heard revealed by anyone before. The two witnesses are killed and their dead bodies are left in the street for 3 1/2 days. Revelation 11:11 "And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them." The question nobody asks is: Why are we given the detail of the half day? There is a purpose for us to have the detail that they are dead for exactly 3 1/2 days. Allow me to explain. The two witnesses begin their 1260 day ministry on the exact day the 70th week of Daniel begins. They are killed on the very day of the Mid-Week, the half way point of the 70th week. The two witnesses symbolically fulfill the second half of the 70th week laying dead in the street, with each day representing a year. Ezekiel chapter 4 sets the precedent for this symbolic episode. Ezekiel 4:4-6 4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. 5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. 6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year. Ezekiel was told to perform street theater by laying on his side, with each day representing a year. This interpretation sets the correct timing of the two witnesses ministry. Many people question when their ministry begins and when it ends. Some believe their ministry begins at the Mid-Week of the 70th week, but that is not correct. The 70th week of Daniel begins when the Antichrist confirms THE COVENANT with many for one week. This is not a 7 year peace treaty as many assume. The "week" of 7 years is not based on our modern calendar of 365.25 days a year, but is based on the ancient calendar of 360 days a year. We are given God's time table, not mans. God has showed us His Time Table for Israel. The Antichrist does not broker a 7 year peace treaty. Israel is not interested in a 7 year proposal of peace, especially now. Israel seeks a lasting peace, with an end to the conflict once and for all. At the end of the 6 day war in 1967, Israel had 7 years of cease fire only to be attacked again on Yom Kippur in 1973. 7 Years of peace means nothing to Israel, especially after the horrors of October 7th and the war they are fighting as I write this. THE COVENANT will not have a 7 year time frame. The covenant is not a new peace treaty but an acknowledgment of The Covenant Between God And Israel. The confirming of The Covenant will be recognizing Israel's right to exist and their right to occupy the land of God's Covenant With Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Israel will be enticed with the promise of lasting peace. God has shown us how it will play out and His Timing, not mans. Daniel 9:27 "And he (Antichrist) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Antichrist will acknowledge Israel's right to exist with many, making Israel believe they have finally achieved a final lasting peace. 1260 days later, the Antichrist will end his support of The Covenant and receive 42 months of unrestrained power. The two witnesses begin their 1260 day ministry on the very day The Covenant is confirmed. For 3 1/2 years or 1260 days the two witnesses are protected by God. At the end of their 1260 day ministry, the Antichrist will be empowered at the Mid-Week and will kill them. The Jews will see the Antichrist stop the daily sacrifice and will understand that they are witnessing the abomination of desolation foretold by the prophet Daniel. The world will see the two witnesses are overcome and killed by the Antichrist, something nobody else was able to do. The worst percussion the world will ever witness, the Great Tribulation will begin at the Mid-Week when the two witnesses are killed. The two witnesses resurrections will be a sign of hope to the world. By symbolically fulfilling the 70th week and rising from the dead, they will give people the courage to resist the mark of the beast, at the cost of their lives. They will surrender their lives knowing that at the end of the 70th week, they too will be resurrected. To my knowledge, this has never been revealed before. I've read countless commentaries and nobody notices the importance of the 3 1/2 days the two witnesses are refused burial. They are a sign to the world when people will need the courage to resist worshipping the Antichrist, his image, and receiving his mark. The experts don't know everything! They don't have answers to questions they've never asked. I got curious for why we were given the detail of 3 1/2 days for the two witnesses. I prayed for an answer and instantly I came up with this. I looked for confirmation and Ezekiel 4 gave me the precedent. I have tried to share this with many popular prophecy teachers but can't get in touch with any of them. This would make a new chapter in their next books if only I could contact them. I know that my interpretation of The Covenant Antichrist confirms is controversial, most teachers believe it will be a 7 year treaty. Bibi Netanyahu will never sign a 7 year peace treaty! He has been warned by numerous people to never accept a 7 year proposal. A lasting peace is the only deal Israel will be willing to accept now, and that is what will be offered. God showed us his time-table for Israel. Jesus Christ will return to the earth at the conclusion of the 70th week of Daniel. Exactly 1260 days after Antichrist kills the two witnesses. The Rapture of the church must take place before the Covenant is confirmed. The Rapture is more than likely the event that will be the catalyst for Israel to consider peace. The promise to be able to rebuild their temple, and their right to the land and to exist, will be to strong to resist.
  2. https://relevantmagazine.com/current/world/christian-pentagon-officials-halted-ufo-research-over-fear-that-aliens-are-demons/ From the article, A UFO researcher is claiming that Pentagon commanders are trying to put the brakes on extraterrestrial studies due to their Christian beliefs. Ron James, director of media relations for the UFO research group MUFON, has shared that US government officials are concerned aliens might actually be demons in disguise. James said that the government-sanctioned Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program faced opposition from “a very large contingent of people” within the Pentagon who believe the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena reported by US military sources were potentially piloted by creatures from Hell. James went on to share that Luis Elizondo, the head of AATIP, struggled to get proper funding because of this group of individuals. Elizondo allegedly said it “was not just a little voice in The Pentagon…but a huge group of people thought the phenomenon that was being witnessed was demons.” Despite religious leaders, including Pope Francis, acknowledging that there is likely life on other planets, this group of officials are wary. In fact, Jones mentioned his conversation with Christian U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett. “I sat down and interviewed him,” Jones said. “His feeling was that if you look in the Bible and you look at Ezekiel building the wheel there’s a lot of people that think that that was a spaceship.” Jones clarified on Julian Dorsey’s podcast he does not think aliens are demons, but simply beings from a different universe Could this be part of the future deception? Do you think they should reveal their concerns to the public? How do you think the public would react?
  3. I will endeavor to explain why Prophecy is so hard to grasp, as intended by God, He wants to be pursued by us, thus he leaves bread crumbs and if we pursue we get more bread crumbs until we understand what He wants us to understand. Jesus spoke to the disciples in parables for this very reason, he wanted to teach them how to be keen and sharp, to see what others could not see. An overview of God's plan is simplistic, reach mankind, and convert them from lovers of sin, to lovers of the ways of God. In so doing God chose one man to bless all nations through, by faith alone, since we are not worthy of God's forgiveness, therefore we have to learn to lean on His righteousness, not ours, since we have none. So, with Abraham God put a plan in motion, part of that plan was to build faith, and thus prophecy should do just that, a God who foreknows all must be the true God !! He also built faith with actions like in Egypt etc. God used Israel to birth the Messiah, even though they had sinned against God and turned unto serving devils and loved wickedness, like all the world did. Nevertheless God knew the Lamb Jesus had to be birthed (the man....really male-child). Then God turned to the Bride of Christ to spread the Gospel unto the Gentiles during the Pax Romanus !! This set the Western Civilizations free from Satan's bondages and brought forth a Renaissance Age of refinement, which we are now running away from by rejecting the very God who freed us from Satan's bondage but that is another story unto itself. God will use us the Church/Bride to spread the gospel until the last 7 years is upon us, which has the judgment of all evil mankind in the midst of the 70th week. God uses this week to bring Israel unto repentance (Zech. 13:8-9). Then as Jesus returns, he sets up the promised Kingdom Age for 1000 years amongst his Jewish brothers. God will then juxtapose Jesus' reign of 1000 years against Satan's reign of 6000 years, thereby condemning him to eternal damnation. Now on to what the Book of Revelation, as written by God says, then what it means in modern lingo as I put that forth in the First Reply which I will only reserve at first. Firstly, God gives us prophecy to help build our faith, secondly, He wants to tell us what is going to go down in a way only we, His servants can understand it. He desires to "draw us in unto Him", not knock us over the head with facts per se. Satan knows & believes in God, but he loves evil over God, so knowing/believing in God and having faith in God in all things, and doing what is right are two fundamentally different things indeed. I am only going to do the book of Revelation here because in that one book God explains all things end times, it is what all the other prophecy books were pointing unto anyway, but God gave it unto us in coded fashion, using the old testament in 276 out of 404 verses to encode His message unto those that know His holy word. The Revelation of Jesus Christ, given unto him by God the Father, to give unto his Servant John God is revealing Jesus unto the whole world, says this is a blessing to anyone who reads it, but in code God uncloaks a mystery for the ages in this book. He firstly gives us the Eternal Jesus in all of his Glory in Rev. 1. John is told to write unto the 7 churches in Asia Minor, the number 7 is divine completion, so there is a reason God picked 7 churches here. God also chose 7 Spirits before the throne to tell them his divine nature is omnipotent. God tells us Jesus blood made us kings and priests in vs. 6. He is called the Alpha and Omega in vs. 8, more symbolic code, he's the first and last. John then says I am your (7 churches) brother in "tribulation" meaning he understood that all time was tribulation on this earth. The rest of the chapter is symbolism, Jesus is seen amongst the 7 golden candlesticks, he was seen as the Son of man, with a garment to his feet, and a golden girdle, with hair as white as snow, his eyes as flame, his feet like unto brass on fire, his voice as many waters, in his right hand 7 stars, a two edged sword came out of his mouth, he shown like Sunlight in the eyes. He then tells John to write unto the 7 churches the things he has seen (Jesus in his glory) the things which are (church age) and the things which will be hereafter (70th week events which is the majority of the book of Revelation). In vs. 20 the 7 stars and 7 candlesticks are explained, the 7 stars are the 7 messengers of the churches (I think their preachers not Angels) and the 7 candlesticks are the 7 churches. This first chapter shows the book of Revelation is going to be chock full of symbolism, yet people do not seem to grasp this in full. In Rev. chapters 2 & 3 God is teaching the church what their weak points and strong points are, they are given clues that show them what they will inherit in heaven, once they overcome, verses 2:10 (crowns) 3:5 (white robes) and 3:21 (sitting at God's throne) show these gifts will only be won once a Christian dies and goes to heaven (Rev. 4:4) so Rev. 2 & 3 is represented by the "Things which are". Everything after the things which are is the 70th week, or the "hereafter", which means after the church age. Rev. 4 & 5 is the church in heaven, raptured in vs. 1 by Jesus who blows the last trump which symbolizes the ending of the harvest, his voice sounds as many waters. In vs. 4 we get coded info that tells us this has to be the pre trib raptured church. In chapter 5 we see a sealed scroll introduced which implies the judgments of God are sealed (7 equals divine completion) up until all 7 have been taken off, and only the worthy lamb can unseal these sealed judgments. In verses 9 & 10 we see the redeemed of God called kings & priests, and they came from all nations, so this is the church in heaven singing the song Worthy is the Lamb. Rev. 6 and 7 kind of mesh as one, in symbiotic way. Jesus starts opening the 7 seals (only 6 in Rev. 6) and as he does so he reveals what the coming 42 months of God's wrath will bring, but only once the 7th seals has been taken off the scroll of judgments (7 trumps). The first 5 seals are complete symbolism, but the message of course is not, in the first 5 seals Jesus foretells us what the coming Anti-Christs rule will be like over this 42 month period in all 5 seals, he will 1.) Conquer 2.) Bring wars by taking away his fake peace 3.) His wars will bring great famine 4.) His 42 month rule will bring sickness, death and the grave (Hades) and finally he will 5.) Kill the Gentile converts which he can get at (he can not get at the Jewish converts who flee into the wilderness/Petra. In seal #6 we get Jesus foretelling of God's soon to come wrath which will start in Rev. 8, but before God can not allow this until He makes sure that the 1/3 (Zech. 13:8) Jews who will repent just before the DOTL (Zech. 13:8-9 and 14:1) have repented (been sealed) and protected in the Petra/Bozrah area. In chapter 7 we see just this, the 144,000 is a simple code telling us they are all Israel who repent and that they must flee unto the Petra & Bozrah safe zone before God will allow His wrath to fall. The text explains this in full, God tells the angels to hold up the four winds (wrath or judgment) until He has sealed the "144,000" meaning saved and protected them, the fulness x completeness code. finally we see the pre trib raptured church in verses 9-16 who came out of great/mega tribulation. The Wrath of God Falls on Mankind In chapter 8 we see the 7th sealed opened up, we see silence in heaven for "30 minutes", most do not get why, buts its reverence unto the death judgment is about to bring, the angels are not joying in this sad event, but alas justice has to prevail. The reason the 7th seal is over in Rev. 8 should be obvious, but people refuse to open their eyes and in many cases and still cling to the whole "Seals are a part of God's Wrath" theory. Wax signet seals by nature seal messages until all the seals are taken off. Once the 7th Seal is taken off (loosed) the judgment of God comes, Trump #1 is an asteroid breaking apart, setting trees ablaze in 1/3 of the world, Trump #2 is the impact of this asteroid, Trump #3 is a fallout of some sort that poisons the fresh waters in this "1/3 area" (I see at as the New World), Trump #4 is the sun & moon going dark or dimming by 1/3 because all the smoke filters out the suns light, fulfilling both Joel 2:31 and the 6th seal prophesies. So, in essence the first four Trumps are one asteroid event. In vs. 13 we are told very clearly that the three trumps yet to sound are the three woes to come. Rev. 9 continues God's wrath, we see the demons locked in the bottomless pit released, they torture men for 5 months, my guess is this is the people who have yet to receive Jesus nor the mark of the beast, their job is to force decisions, stand ye this day on this side or on that side. Then immediately following this we see 200 million angelic beings, which is really just the whole host of heaven, two Myriads or 100 million equals completeness in general. These angels kill 1/3 of all men who have take the mark of the beast, thus woes #1 and #2 go hand in hand. Now we must move to Rev. 16 to see the final or 3rd woe. I include Rev. 15 with Rev. 16 because the angels ready the 7 Vials to be poured out in Rev. 15, then they are poured out in Rev. 16. Looking back at Rev. 8 that all happens in one chapter, the Trumps were readied to be sounded by the angels, then the angels blew them in the same chapter. Rev. 15& 16 finishes off God's wrath. The angels ready the Vials to be poured out in ch. 15, then in ch. 16 we see the 7 Vials poured out, this finishes off God's wrath, which all emits from the 7 Trumps. This is the 3rd woe, just as Rev. 8:13 says. In the 6th Vial I see this river Euphrates drying up as being a metaphor for God's plagues drying up or being halted for a time in order to entice the cowards out of their hiding places and caves, they see the Two-witnesses die, then the plagues stop, suddenly they are enticed by the Three Frog Spirits, Satan the Dragon, the Anti-Christ and False Prophet, to go after the remaining Jews, and they try to kill them all off, hoping there will thus be no more "Two-witnesses" type judgment. Then as they all move in unison to Armageddon, Jesus shows up in Rev. 16:19, the 7th Vial, and wipes them off the face of the earth in a show of force. This ends God's wrath. In vs. 19 God calls those Jesus kills off Babylon the Great. The Parenthetical Citation Chapters Those understanding the book of Revelation understands that is not in chronological order, nor can it be. We see a divergence starting in chapter 10, thereof course were no chapters nor verses in the bible, so there was no intention of continuity, just like Daniel, its not in chronological order. With each chapter henceforth I will endeavor to explain when each chapter starts on the 70th weeks 7 year timeline of days, ranging from day 1 to the 1260 middle of the week to the day 2520 second coming of Jesus, and when they end also. Rev. 10 used to be a chapter I would just skip over, to big a mystery unto me, I though everything in it was sealed up (7 Thunders), until I understood that all of God's wrath emits from the 7 Trumps. Here is my best "guess" at what's going on here, I think John gets this interaction before he gets the chapters 4, 5 and 6 interactions, its an "overview" of God's soon to come wrath, John is told what it all means by the 7 thunders, but then told its sealed up, do not write what you heard, but instead, here you go, write these things down in codes, metaphors and symbolism !! He's also told when the 7th Thunder (Trump) sounds the mystery will be over, and that time will be no more [as we know it]. In mt mind that means Jesus will be reigning after the 7th Trump sounds. John is then told to eat the little book, and fids it both bitter and sweet, I think this points to judgment, billions of humans must be killed, that is sad (bitter) but judgment will bring to pass Jesus ruling on earth, and eventually a New Heaven and New Earth, and tat will indeed be sweet. Amen. I think this vision starts just after John gets the vision of Jesus in all his eternal glory and sees the church age chapters. Rev. 11 is of course the Two-witnesses chapter, we are told in a coded manner who God has sent them back unto in verses 1-3, the Jews only is whom they have to reach. We know they are sent back before the DOTL, which is the 1260 middle of the week event, so I see them as the 1335 event, which happens 1335 days before the second coming ends al of these wonders as Dan. 12 says. So, they must show up 75 days before the beast conquers Israel/Jerusalem and they also must die 75 days before the beast dies, and they do, they die at the 2nd woe whilst the beast dies at the 7th Vial. When the 7th Trump is sounded in Rev. 11, that happens after they die, but as with all of the other plagues, the Two-witnesses prayed the plagues down. So, the chapter runs 1335 days, but the Two-witnesses only live for 1260 days. Rev. 12 is rather easy as per unto the timeline. The dragon (Satan) chases the woman (Israel) for 1260 days. We get a coded algorithm in verses 1-5 to tell us who the players are. Satan, Israel and Jesus. This is done so Rome would not see letters claiming Israel was going to rule the whole world, its thus encoded to protect the church of the 1st and 2nd centuries. Basically Satan will try to kill off all the Jews as he did in WW2, but because of the Two-witnesses showing up 75 days before he's allowed to go forth conquering, we know that 1/3 of Israel will repent then flee to the Petra/Bozrah area at the 1290 AoD warning sign, which happens 30 days before the Anti-Christ is allowed to go forth conquering. The Remnant can not be Jews, they can only be the gentile church. This chapter starts at the 1260, ends at 2520. Rev. 13 is the Anti-Christ becoming the beast, thus he arises out of the sea where the beast has been dormant since Rome received the mortal wound. The dead beast lives again when he arises from the Mediterranean sea. He will rule over Israel and the Mediterranean sea region for 1260 days starting on day 1261, lasting until Jesus slays him on day 2520. Rev. 14 is the harvest chapter, God uses the three harvest feasts to explain the end time harvesting of souls and their sequences. We see the 144,000 (Israel/Wheat) who will rule from Jerusalem with Jesus for 1000 years on the holy mt. awaiting Jesus. but that's just prose, w all know they are in the Bozrah area, but they rule from Jerusalem so are shown as such. In verses 17-20 we see the wicked grapes (tares) who grow with the wheat (Israel) til "the very end". Meanwhile, in vs. 14 we see a flashback, like in a movie, to the pre trib rapture pf the church, we are the "barley harvest" which always comes first and does not need to be crushed before it can be harvested and sifted. This chapter of course rune the full 7 years because of the pre trib rapture. Rev. 17 is God judging false religion (Harlotry). This is one side of a two sided coin, false religion in Rev. 17 and false governance in Rev. 18 but lets stay here for now, we are given a coded understanding of who the harlot is, not in four descriptors as many think, but in three instead, the Mystery portion is referring unto the secret God is only now revealing, it was never Mystery Babylon, it was MYSTERY 1.) Babylon the Great ( the city most noted for false religion ) 2.) Mother of Harlots ( the original harlotry was false religion ) 3.) Abominations of the earth ( God hates all false religion ) So, God will use the Anti-Christ and his 10 (E.U.) kings to judge the harlot, false religions. Since the Anti-Christ is a Antiochus Epiphanes type who thinks he is God, he will of course allow no other religions in his kingdom, thus he will kill of the harlot religions, thus under his rule in the E.U. and Mediterranean Sea Region Islam will not be allowed, neither will Buddhism, Hinduism nor any religion. Of course he also will martyr the gentiles who turned to Christ and the Jews who he can get at. This of course starts at the 1260 ends on day 2520. Rev. 18 is God judging Babylon (whole world) in a series of plagues. God in vs. 2 states Babylon has become the dwelling place of devils, of course it has, Satan and his demons were cast down and Apollyon and his demons were freed from the pit. In vs. 4 we see God calling His people (Israel) to come out of her/Babylon (world) or else they will receive of her plagues. The rest of the chapter is prose describing the whole worlds judgment and how these merchants so loved her perversions and wealth, but they did it by not valuing the things of God. In verses 8 and 10 it states her judgment will come in one day and in one hour, with both meaning 1260 days, the DOTL lasts 1260 days and in Rev. 17:12 we see the 10 kings rule one hour with the beast, so that means 42 months also. Rev. 19 like Rev. 14 covers the full 7 years of the 70th week. We seethe bride of Christ marrying the Lamb then returning with him to defeat the beast and all of his minions, still on earth. We get our white robes here, so this has to happen before Rev. 4:4, 5:9, 7:9-16, these are thus the pre trub raptured church in heaven, marrying the Lamb, called to the wedding by Jesus as Rev. 4:1 says. Those who miss the call are in for a time of great troubles like never seen before. Rev. 20 of course happens after the 70th week ends. Jesus and the church who returns with him will judge the martyrs and Jewish saints now, and one day the angels who fell. Satan and his demons will all be locked up into the bottomless pit for Jesus' 1000 year reign. He will be released for a short time, in order to test those never before during the 1000 year reign, I am sure. Rev. 21 and 22 is the New Jerusalem and the ever after, or our eternal dwelling with God in heaven. Amen.
  4. Let's delve into the statue of Daniel chapter 2 and see if we can come to an understanding of who the last kingdom represents. The Iron and Clay, who is this in prophecy? The Dream Dan. 2:31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. 32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. 34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands(Jesus), which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. 35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. 36 This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king. The Interpretation 37 Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory. 38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath he given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold(Babylon/Nebuchadnezzar was the Gold portion of the Statue). 39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee(Persia/Silver part of the Statue), and another third kingdom of brass(Alexander the Great and Greece), which shall bear rule over all the earth(NOTE: All the earth is speaking about only the land being spoken about, the Mediterranean Sea Region, hence the Beasts all arose out of the great [Mediterranean] Sea). 40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron(Rome): forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise. 41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. 43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. 44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. 45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure. So, who is the "10" Iron & the Clay kings whom the end time beast/little horn arises from? That is the great debate isn't it? We have those whom says its a worldwide conglomeration of 10 regions, we have those who insist it is an end time Muslim leader because of the Assyrian angle we are given in Isaiah chapter 10. We have those who insist he must come from Syria because they are the ones Rome got to destroy Jerusalem in 70 AD thus the Dan. 9:27 prophecy can only be about them. So, lets look deeper into this original prophecy about the Statue. This image is good enough, however verse 42 cites only the toes as both iron & clay, so we get the Gold = Babylon, the Silver = Persia, the Brass = Greece, the Iron = Rome and the Iron & Clay = the 10 Toes or End Time Horns/Kings. So who do these 10 represent? That is the 64,000 dollar question. Well, it is "Iron" in the description right? So, the Iron Beast and the Iron and Clay has to be the same Beast [territory], except the Clay means they are Divided !! As we see know, the E.U. are many factions trying to be one, whilst Rome was one faction ruling over many nations. In the old days Rome made a decree and everyone had better heed that decree, today, the E.U. tries to decree something and other "nations" inside the E.U. will give push back, like Hungary and Poland not accepting illegal aliens etc. etc. or England voting to leave the E.U. So, in my opinion, the 10 simply means complete Europe Reunited, but not in the old Roman way, but instead in a political type way where they are together, but are still not a well oiled machine, they have leaks at the seams, they are Rome (Iron) but are seamed together by "Clay" not by welds or rivets that hold tightly. I think that is the image the Angels of God was trying to relay in this statue vision. The 10 toes (complete Rome/E.U. Reunited as "one") are Iron & Clay, partly strong and partly weak. I also think God gives us a three pronged prophecy about the coming end time Little Horn/A.C./Beast, and all three have to mesh together or it is a wrong assumption. So, let me lay those three out. 1.) Isaiah 10, this Beast/Little Horn has to be of Assyrian Blood lineage. 2.) Dan. 7:7-8, this Little Horn has to be from the Roman Empires head or territory via his "political realm". 3.) Dan 8:9, this Little Horn/A.C. must arise from one of the Four Generals empires and the end time King of the North (Dan. 11:40-43) must conquer from the Northwest corridor of this four way inter-kingdom battle. He conquers towards the south (Egypt/Ptolemy) towards the east (Turkey/Seleucus) and towards Israel, which leave him conquering from Cassander or Greece. Putting it all together, because all three prophesies must be true, we can see that this man has to have Assyrian blood (Iraqi/Turk or Syrian) in his lineage, but he also has to be born in Greece, so his family somewhere down the road migrated to Greece. Now, being born in Greece gives this man the birthright to become the E.U. President(fulfilling Dan. 7:7-8), thus he can fulfill all three prophesies only by the scenario I laid out above. Thus, this end time Beast has to also have Iron in his mix, because the 10 toes have iron in the mix, meaning its the Old Rome territory reconstituted under another Beast, a man, who will never pass his kingdom on, thus he is the 7th Head of Rev. 13. In the end, these two maps below establish why the Iron moniker is used for the 10 toes. Old Rome circa 117 AD. The current European Union and the Nations in treaty with her in the European Neighborhood Policy(ENP) Agreements. There is no difference once the Little Horn conquers Israel and the MANY Countries in Dan. 11:40-43. The only difference is in the way these kingdoms were put together. One Conquered all the nations, pretty much and ruled in such a manner, and the other is a defacto political organization of a group of nations being held together by shoe polish.
  5. Many believers who study prophecy and last days events are aware that there was an archetype of the antichrist (Antiochus IV) who set up an abomination of desolation around 168 B.C in Jerusalem. Yet, few Christians are aware that he also imposed upon the people of God sexual abominations, eerily similar to what we see happening in our time. A new book “The Last Days Pride Parade and the Return of the Lord” draws on Biblical and historic sources such as, Josephus, Tacitus, Hippolytus, the books of the Maccabees. Some of these historic details and prophetic links have been overlooked since the early church. There can be shown a direct parallel and foreshadowing between the ancient Biblical antichrist to the modern LGBTQ worldwide movement. These major prophetic events were also described in the book of Daniel and mentioned by Christ pertaining to his future return. The church needs to both understand and be prepared for the challenges that lie ahead so we can stand firm in our faith and shine as lights in this present darkness. The Lord is coming soon. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-last-days-pride-parade-tom-maccabeus/1142105434?ean=2940167069626
  6. Is anyone feeling betrayed by bugs crawling all over you? Specifically locusts that make creeping sounds in the spirit? It seems likley that these are also plaguing the greedful sin of prostitution going on around the nations. "Anything for myself, at all costs." Are these specifically designed as part of the Abaddon great destroyer plague in Rev 9? Because they are coming out of the bottomless pit with him we read. Only they aren't eating crops of the earth (yet), they've been eating us!! It says men shall be tormented by these for 5 months, OK. They come out of a furnace which means they are a furnace when they get there." I heard testimony from US soldiers who were seeing in Northern Iraq about ISIS. "These aren't normal men, these are demon infested super warriors that hate on an astronomical level." They get power to sin more when they take human lives, innocent bloodshed is it's source of strength." Question? Can we use the plagues after we walk through them as a church? Because Satan is quite a bully. And he uses people who call themselves Christians to fight everybody (with everything). Like the horses in Revelation 6, Death + Hades? The dappled horse tales, we'll hear of some exciting testimonies I presume. Revelation 9:2-11 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.
  7. "If this has happened to you, you will never let this happen to you again." I believe it will for a while (USA be downtrodden, overtaken by troops), then reinstated just like Washington saw in a vision at Valley Forge when he was praying there. It feels like he was close to God in those memoirs that were written at Valley Forge. Here is a snippet from his vision in the Library of Congress: https://www.ushistory.org/valleyforge/washington/vision.html Wartime: "And again I heard the mysterious voice saying "Son of the Republic, look and learn." At this the dark, shadowy angel placed a trumpet to his mouth, and blew three distinct blasts; and taking water from the ocean, he sprinkled it upon Europe, Asia and Africa. Then my eyes beheld a fearful scene: From each of these countries arose thick, black clouds that were soon joined into one. Throughout this mass there gleamed a dark red light by which I saw hordes of armed men, who, moving with the cloud, marched by land and sailed by sea to America. Our country was enveloped in this volume of cloud, and I saw these vast armies devastate the whole county and burn the villages, towns and cities that I beheld springing up. As my ears listened to the thundering of the cannon, clashing of sword, and the shouts and cries of millions in mortal combat, I heard again the mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn" When the voice had ceased, the dark shadowy angel placed his trumpet once more to his mouth, and blew a long and fearful blast. "Instantly a light as of a thousand suns shone down from above me, and pierced and broke into fragments the dark cloud which enveloped America. At the same moment the angel upon whose head still shone the word Union, and who bore our national flag in one hand and a sword in the other, descended from the heavens attended by legions of white spirits. These immediately joined the inhabitants of America, who I perceived were will nigh overcome, but who immediately taking courage again, closed up their broken ranks and renewed the battle. Again, amid the fearful noise of the conflict, I heard the mysterious voice saying, "Son of the Republic, look and learn." As the voice ceased, the shadowy angel for the last time dipped water from the ocean and sprinkled it upon America. Instantly the dark cloud rolled back, together with the armies it had brought, leaving the inhabitants of the land victorious! Rebuilding after the 3rd war: Then once more I beheld the villages, towns and cities springing up where I had seen them before, while the bright angel, planting the azure standard he had brought in the midst of them, cried with a loud voice: "While the stars remain, and the heavens send down dew upon the earth, so long shall the Union last." And taking from his brow the crown on which blazoned the word "Union," he placed it upon the Standard while the people, kneeling down, said, "Amen. Let every child of the Republic learn to live for his God, his land and the Union." With these words the vision vanished, and I started from my seat and felt that I had seen a vision wherein had been shown to me the birth, progress, and destiny of the United States. The Parable of the Shrewd Manager Luke 16 Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. 2 So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.’ 3 “The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I’m not strong enough to dig, and I’m ashamed to beg— 4 I know what I’ll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses.’ 5 “So he called in each one of his master’s debtors. He asked the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ 6 “‘Nine hundred gallons[a] of olive oil,’ he replied. “The manager told him, ‘Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred and fifty.’ 7 “Then he asked the second, ‘And how much do you owe?’ “‘A thousand bushels[b] of wheat,’ he replied. “He told him, ‘Take your bill and make it eight hundred.’ 8 “The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. 9 I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings. 10 “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. 11 So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? 12 And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own? 13 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” 14 The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and were sneering at Jesus. 15 He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God’s sight. Additional Teachings 16 “The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the good news of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing their way into it. 17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law. 18 “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. The Rich Man and Lazarus 19 “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’ 25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’ 27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ 29 “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’ 30 “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’ 31 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”
  8. Discussing the literal meaning of Revelation 13:10 gives us a clear perspective of the end times. If you kill by the sword, you must be killed by the sword. If you commit atrocities inside the womb for decades (slaying very innocent blood), a sword will come to your land. "This is the faith and the patience of the saints". This is not grace, it is death. It's not grace for death, it's death for the slain of this land, death by the sword is coming. Or this scripture was written in vein. We also know not to add to or take away from these messages in the Revelation of John. Or He will add the plagues in this book to us. He will take away the tree of liberty from us in the holy city if we discuss them wrong. Revelation 13:10 If anyone is to be taken captive, captivity he goes; if anyone is to be slain with the sword, with the sword must he be slain. Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints. Revelation 22:18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.
  9. Berlin is holding back military support for Ukraine. Is it because they are poised to be one of the 4 heads of the new global government given authority to rule by God in heaven? It has 4 heads, 4 wings, and it's a Leopard in many translations. Ironically, the item requested are their Leopard 2 tanks. An interesting perspective to pray about maybe. Daniel 7:6 “After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads, and it was given authority to rule.
  10. It has been said that we (America) are similar to the Ottoman Empire which existed before WW1. If this is true, America must be taken down incrementally, or not so incrementally, idk. I assume this would equate to the nations needing to cooperate more diplomatically with China & Russia on a more long term basis. If this down sizing of the USA were from God Almighty, then it might be written for us to understand the end times governmental changes in Daniel 7. (Please read the scripture below and pray). The heart of a man given to the lion England (to think like a man, not a beast) while the eagle's (America's) wings are plucked off of it. This creates separation between the USA and England. It might be making a way for the four headed panther government to have authority, China? Which nations (animals) are the 3 ribs in the Bear's mouth?? (Ukraine, USA, ?, ?) Note: Israel has not committed weapons for the Ukraine war effort. This may be pivotal. I think it is likely Putin has gone beyond the point of life on this earth with eternal ramifications mounting because of innocent youth's deaths in Ukraine. If this is true, Russia will still continue on this path without him. Also, because of innocent youth's being exterminated by the millions in the USA, once areas have been bombed, the US government will abandon those areas on United States soil during the war. I call this is the "Isaiah 23 modern Phoenician city paradox." NYC + Dubai other western culture cities as well... I guess plan, pray and prepare for the heathen exercisers' in the church, get ready for safe zones in this time. They might be safe zones, or they might be slave camps like the one prophesied by Chuck Youngbrant in the 70s near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. I guess whichever church is leading in hope and praise music will be blessed with governing sovereignty in this time. Isaiah 23:1-3 Wail, you ships of Tarshish! For Tyre is destroyed and left without house or harbor. From the land of Cyprus word has come to them. Be silent, you people of the island and you merchants of Sidon, whom the seafarers have enriched. On the great watersc ame the grain of the Shihor; the harvest of the Nile[ was the revenue of Tyre, and she became the marketplace of the nations. Daniel 7:4-6 “The first was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted from the ground so that it stood on two feet like a human being, and the mind of a human was given to it. “And there before me was a second beast, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. It was told, ‘Get up and eat your fill of flesh!’ “After that, I looked, and there before me was another beast, one that looked like a leopard. And on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. This beast had four heads, and it was given authority to rule.
  11. Hello Worthy people and God bless your souls with the rich Kingship of Yeshua! This has been a huge issue Christians I know and myself have had to encounter recently. At times it has felt like Jesus Himself was the stronghold trying to move against me, then I realized Jesus is in the savage people trying to heal, and claiming a quite acceptable position for Himself with every tribe and tongue. Hello new wine skins!! During the conversion process (for them and myself) I am serving beyond the boundaries of human culture I am used to, and acceptable behavior. Jesus has said, "DO NOT LAY YOUR HANDS VIOLENTLY ON A MAN IF YOU'RE FACING THREATS, BUT REBUKE THEM WITH MY AUTHORITY." He who lives by the sword dies by the sword, this is the faith and patience of the saints. Have courage, believe me this is needed for the church now. IF WE DON'T SURRENDER AND FACE THREATS THAT HE SAYS WE NEED TO FACE, THEN OUR SECURITY AND LOVE FOR THE WORLD WILL NEVER FADE. AMEN.
  12. Revelation 1:10 - "The Lord's Day". What is this scripturally? Rev 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, I have heard many things in regards this text and the phrase in question, yet most that I have heard, refer to writings that come hundreds of years later, and those with mere guessing, without referring back to the scripture itself. So, exclusive of material written after the fact by orders of many years, what does the scripture itself teach on this subject? Immediate Context: Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Rev 1:2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Rev 1:3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Rev 1:4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; Rev 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, Rev 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Rev 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. Rev 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Rev 1:11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. Rev 1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; Rev 1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. Rev 1:14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; Rev 1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. Rev 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. Rev 1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: Rev 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Rev 1:19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; Rev 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
  13. Today, amid all the chaos and mayhem of the present hour, many of God’s people in Christ are searching the scriptures seeking what His word says are the signs of His coming. One of the surest indications that we are in the last days and Jesus is on His way is found by observing the oceans. In the book of Revelation we are shown that before the Lord returns the oceans will be “as the blood of a dead man” (Rev. 16:3). This means that as a dead man is lifeless and has stopped breathing, his blood has become devoid of oxygen. Today there are many places in the seas that are without oxygen. Scientists call these areas “dead zones,” and these dead zones are expanding. Scientists have warned that ocean dead zones have quadrupled since 1950. The Bible tells us that there will be a time when one hundred percent of the oceans will be devoid of life “And every living soul died in the sea “(Rev. 16:3). We are also told that “when the fish are taken away” in Hosea 4:3, that it is the result of God’s judgment upon man’s sin, especially the sins of those who profess to be believers. God records their sins in Hosea 4:2. – “… swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out and blood touches blood. Therefore shall the land mourn, and everyone that dwells therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yes, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away” (verse 3). Every once in a while on the news, it is reported that great masses of dead fish are washed up on the shores in locations all over the world. All we have to do to understand the cause of such events, is to look into the pages of God’s word that reads like a newspaper as it chronicles the times we are living in now. So next time you see it reported that large amounts of sea life are found floating lifeless on the ocean, or their carcasses are strewn on a beach somewhere ruining someone’s vacation, you can turn to God’s word and examine your own life as a possible cause of these calamities. God is calling all of us to become spiritual conservationists at this hour and repent. For it is obvious when man turns away from God, humanities’ rebellion has consequences that are reflected in nature. Therefore children, watch the oceans for they are dependable indicators of the times and the timing of the Lord’s return.
  14. I have been studying Daniel and have found that there are so many folks that refer to a “7 year tribulation” which will occur at the end of time and will center on an “anti-Christ” figure. I believe these two beliefs are based on certain verses in Daniel. Consequently, would you folks provide your thoughts on the verses and your interpretation of how they speak / identify them as such? Thank you very much, Charlie
  15. I sent 3 emails to the 'Contact' option yet no-one has replied. It's been about two weeks. I have a serious problem but can't find help. I'm really disappointed.
  16. Hello, I have been going over prophecy lately and kind of bouncing around from Daniel, Revelations and Ezekiel. I have read over Ezekiel before but just kind of pass over the stuff I didn't understand. Now I am digging in a bit deeper. In Ezekiel the first chapter, What is it referring to when it talked about "the wheel"? Ezekiel’s Vision of God 1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the River Chebar, that the heavens were opened and I saw visions[a] of God. 2 On the fifth day of the month, which was in the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity, 3 the word of the Lord came expressly to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the [b]Chaldeans by the River Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was upon him there. 4 Then I looked, and behold, a whirlwind was coming out of the north, a great cloud with raging fire engulfing itself; and brightness was all around it and radiating out of its midst like the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. 5 Also from within it came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man. 6 Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. 7 Their [c]legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the soles of calves’ feet. They sparkled like the color of burnished bronze. 8 The hands of a man were under their wings on their four sides; and each of the four had faces and wings. 9 Their wings touched one another. The creatures did not turn when they went, but each one went straight forward. 10 As for the likeness of their faces, each had the face of a man; each of the four had the face of a lion on the right side, each of the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and each of the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Thus were their faces. Their wings stretched upward; two wings of each one touched one another, and two covered their bodies. 12 And each one went straight forward; they went wherever the spirit wanted to go, and they did not turn when they went. 13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning. 14 And the living creatures ran back and forth, in appearance like a flash of lightning. 15 Now as I looked at the living creatures, behold, a wheel was on the earth beside each living creature with its four faces. 16 The appearance of the wheels and their workings was like the color of beryl, and all four had the same likeness. The appearance of their workings was, as it were, a wheel in the middle of a wheel. 17 When they moved, they went toward any one of four directions; they did not turn aside when they went. 18 As for their rims, they were so high they were awesome; and their rims were full of eyes, all around the four of them. 19 When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them; and when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up. 20 Wherever the spirit wanted to go, they went, because there the spirit went; and the wheels were lifted together with them, for the spirit of the [d]living creatures was in the wheels. 21 When those went, these went; when those stood, these stood; and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up together with them, for the spirit of the [e]living creatures was in the wheels. I know it is symbolism but not sure just what it is referring to Thank you and God bless! Matt <><<
  17. The Grim Reaper, the figure with in a black robe with a scythe, has allegorical understandings to him that pertain to the Bible. The allegory of farming and mankind being wheat or chaff has been used. The symbolism of "Death" with a scythe has been significant. Why is the Grim Reaper Grim? Dealing with Prophecy, The Prophets of the Bible may have given some hard prophecy. Various people dealt with understanding in different ways. The author of Ecclesiastes seemed cynical. He seemed to have come into understanding of how God has worked in history, and nothing new happens under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9-11) The Truth hurts. Knowledge brings sorrow. Ignorance is bliss? The author of Ecclesiastes seemed to have issues dealing with hard understanding of Truth. Prophet Jeremiah was known as The Weeping Prophet. He loves his country and his people. He gave some hard prophecy such as instructing the soldiers in Jerusalem not to fight. Different people have dealt with understanding in different ways. A Judge like a Judge in a Courtroom needs to be honorable and impartial. He may be Judging someone to long periods of incarceration or death. It is a serious matter. Someone who become aware of God's Judgment or potential Judgments, and someone who God may have been working through may have had to be grim. He has The Love of God in his heart. He has a circumcision of the heart. He finds no joy in the Judgment. He is dutiful. Elisha and The Bears Elisha is a servant of God. As a servant of God, it may be important how people perceive Elisha. People understand that he has been a Prophet. How people perceive Elisha as God's servant may reflect on how people perceive God. Elisha may have been tied to God's Honor. Elisha is going about business God had set him on one day. He walks by some Occupy Protesting youths. They mock Elisha. Elisha blesses them with trials. (James 1:2-4) Later, two bears come kill 42 of their number. Why two bears? I don't 100% know, but God's style of leader may have been more "If Job can do it, so can you." King David fought bears and lions with his hands and club. (1 Samuel 17:34) What kind of man was Elisha? Elisha went through a trial with Elijah that may have been pretty intense. The Bible doesn't talk much about the Prophets before they were Prophets most times. In an understanding of God, we may be able to do some Spiritual Algebra and come close to a right answer. Elisha may have been quite the man, and also had some encounters with some bears. Two bears killed 42 of their number. Elisha, in his heart, could not enjoy it. He had to be grim. His heart needed to be level. Death and Christianity God is God of the living. Arch Angel Michael is said to take the righteous to God. Someone passing away may not be a bad thing. I found some songs about Death from a more Christian perspective. What is The Form of Death? I arranged said songs to tell a story and help give a better visual. When I Go Away Living in sin is like digging a hole. One day a man starts digging and doesn't know why. He digs down deep, and doesn't stop.A man passing through sees the hole, and looks down. He yells "Hey Crazy, what are you doing!?!"Man in the hole stops and looks around and sees how far he dug. What does he do? Does he lay down and die? Does he climb out? Does he just keep on digging? Let the Godly be Godly. Let the Righteous be Righteous. Let the filthy be filthy. Lone Wayfaring Stranger. To truly be born again, a man needs to die. He needs to die to the World. Die to the self. It is sort of like the pill in The Matrix. Which one do you choose? Cyanide. Death Came a Knocking. The Shakedown God's Judgement and Prophecy is serious and should be taken seriously. Someone may have to be Grim, with their heart level to be giving said prophecy.
  18. God's plan is God's Kingdom. God's Kingdom has particular values. Website: http://www.kingwatch.co.nz/Kingdom_of_God.htm What needs to happen to build the Kingdom of God? Who or what is in the way? Mankind is like God's Vineyard. The Lord is a shepherd. How have people been shepherded by God? How have people been shepherded by false shepherds? Pondering with God, I was given sight into the answers of some of these questions. Right now we have The Coronavirus. Since around the 1970's, a lot of the first world has been living complacently in, and blindly in, a Mutually Assured Destruction World. In a Post Cold War World, some kids don't even know what a nuclear bomb is. A lot of people have been complacent and lax. God showed me a potentially "World Destabilizing Event" in 2015. I worked as God's Watchman to sound the Alarm. I got on Twitter and other Social Media and worked to gain attention of Governments, CEO's, Churches, and other entities. In 2015, I was seeing a potential Great Depression that destabilized the world. Working for God, with some other people I may not have met before, we may have averted said World Destabilizing Event for some time. With the Coronavirus, people are having a little bit of a wake up call from their complacency. They were comfortable in a world that was perishing. Is the Coronavirus a "World Destabilizing Event?" A Kingdom Divided cannot stand. A lot of people have worked to divide Nations and Churches. America in 1960 was a much different place than after The Counter Culture. Someone like Teddy Roosevelt fought against Hyphenated Americanism. America was a melting pot, of different people coming together and becoming a Nation. The Counter Culture of the 1960's worked to divide people. The Counter Culture was a rebellion. A rebellion of wives from husbands. A rebellion of children from parents. A rebellion of men from God to other spiritualism, gurus, and ideology. In that rebellion, there was black power, latino power, Feminism, and various different things that worked to divide people. I haven't been given anything particular to say about how the Coronavirus is going to end, at this time. Someone like Hillary Clinton was a follower of Saul Alinsky. Saul Alinsky was a socialist that worked to infiltrate communities and Churches. A "Saul Alinsky" may have sat in a Church or Community for a few years, and got some people to like him, and then he worked his way into leadership and power, and started suggesting Anti-Christian, and God things towards radical social change that was Satanic. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/want-to-understand-hillary-clinton-read-saul-alinsky https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/is-there-a-deeper-network-behind-the-catholic-spring-56682 A Catholic Spring would, in part, be what was happening in Brazil and Germany earlier this year. That type of things was already in protestant churches as well. https://townhall.com/tipsheet/laurettabrown/2017/08/09/hillary-clinton-now-wants-to-be-a-methodist-preacher-n2366554 Under what condition may something like a fulfillment of Daniel 12 have happened? Given a Great Depression along with other destabilizing events, in the current political-social climate, we have the potential to see this. A Kingdom Divided cannot stand, and many people have worked to divide Nations and Divide Churches. In Ezekiel 16 and 23, Israel or Judah are like God's wives. They prostituted themselves with foreign God's and foreign nations. That would be multiculturalism as it has most been taught by the Left. Given people are following God most correctly. A culture is going to develop. In a similar way to God marrying Israel, the Church is a Bride for Christ. I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things. (Isaiah 45:7) Given people would like good things and blessings, they repent and seek God with all their heart and soul and strength and mind. Given people were listening to false shepherds, and turned away from God, and rejected righteousness, some dominoes may have started to fall till God's Judgement came on a Nation. There may be a lot of ways mankind could potentially be in peril over the next few years. From politicians seeking an "Atheistic Socialist State, with no borders, that denies the Book of Daniel, to Scientist working to create AI, and seeking "Trans humanism." A rejection of God and common sense bring despair and destruction. Be earnest and repent.
  19. Dear brothers and sisters, I received this email and I thought I would share with you all. Like I said before, things are NEVER going to be the same. There is going to be a "New Normal". The wicked having been plotting and scheming. I just think we should all be aware but DO NOT FEAR BECAUSE OF EVIL MEN, or be envious of those who do wrong for like the grass they will soon wither, for the like the green plants they will soon die away.......TRUST IN THE LORD and do good. That is from Psalm 37, I would recommend memorizing, meditating, and saying it aloud. It will help to build up your faith. Here is the email. Read it and let it sink in. The times are changing very very quickly. Prepare yourselves spiritually! Take on the full armor of God because the devil is going to be attacking more and more, so like the Scriptures say, above all, take up the shield of faith!!! I exhort you brothers and sisters, repent, get your houses in order! And above all rejoice and pray!!! This is for those who have ears to hear and eyes that are open to see. Greetings friends, On Friday I shared a video talking on how the stage seems to set for the coming mark of the beast. I wanted to share that article and video with you here today. I want to thank all of you who pray, and support this broadcast. I couldn’t make this happen without you. God bless. The Stage is Being Set for the Mark of the Beast We are living in a time, when government and tech industry leaders are openly usurping our freedoms and liberty and it’s about to get much, much worse. The unfortunate aspect of all this is many people seem to be begging for it. We are being told on a regular basis by these tech companies, by media, and by government, that we should prepare for a “new normal.” By new normal, they mean prepare to be tracked wherever you go, prepare to NEVER be able to gather in large numbers ever again. Prepare to be chipped and vaccinated in order to participate in basic commerce, to go out to eat, to go to a ball game, or run a 5k or marathon. Here is a recent quote from Bill Gates, “People can go out, but not as often, and not to crowded places,” he says. “Picture restaurants that only seat people at every other table and airplanes where every middle seat is empty.” Schools will reopen, but not stadiums.” I can’t help but ask the question, how is it a software developer is now in charge of telling me what my economic and health future looks like? Why is a tech industry telling me I need to be vaccinated? According to GatesNote.com “Realistically, if we’re going to return to normal, we need to develop a safe, effective vaccine.” These control freaks are literally drooling over the idea of taking complete control over humanity and using mass surveillance and ID’s to enforce it. Those in power, have no intention of letting us get back to a normal free society. What’s coming is lots of surveillance and restrictions, but it will be for “our safety,” so we should comply like good little boys and girls. Unfortunately, as I have already mentioned, it would appear most are willing to comply. People want their cushy lives back, they don’t want to be afraid anymore and they are willing to play ball with the devil to make it happen. We are very quickly seeing the stage set for the coming mark of the beast. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see a new leader come on the stage with great promises of a new world. The man of sin is about to be revealed and a great temptation which will try the whole world is near. I should close by saying, just because the enemy has these evil plans, does not mean he will succeed at this very moment in time. We must repent of our sins, and return to righteousness. We must pray for God to intervene and restore peace, joy, and freedom for the sake of His people. If we would only seek Him with humility, I believe He would answer our cries. In my recent book, The End of Days, A 30-Day Devotional, I predicted a time would come when people would become genetically modified, micro-chipped, and forced into a position to do it in order to participate in society. I never imaged it would come as a result of a virus and that my writing would be so timely.

  20. Here's an interesting article by a Jewish guy who lives on the Golan Heights. One interesting verse he quotes is this one: Jeremiah 10:10 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 10 But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth quakes, And the nations cannot endure His indignation. 4.6 Earthquake Rocks Red Sea Where Jews Crossed Just Before Passover 4.6 Earthquake Rocks Red Sea Where Jews Crossed Just Before Passover Jordan at around the same time. The epicenter of the quake was reported to be about 40 miles south of the city i...
  21. IN THE MIDST OF COVID19, WHAT DO GOD AND THE BIBLE SAY IS NEXT ON THE PROPHETIC HORIZON? I SAW COVID-19 IN THE BIBLE (HABAKKUK 3:5) AFTER IT HAPPENED, JUST LIKE I SAW 9/11 IN THE BIBLE (ISAIAH 30:25; 33:18) AFTER IT HAPPENED, AND JUST LIKE I SAW SOME OTHER HISTORICAL EVENTS IN THE BIBLE AFTER THEY HAPPENED (E.G., THE DISPERSION OF THE JEWS AND THE BINDING OF SATAN AND THE DEMONS IN HELL IN 70 AD; THE REFORMATION; THE RELEASE OF SATAN AND THE DEMONS FROM HELL IN 1910; THE RELEASE OF THE JEWS TO BEGIN RETURNING TO PALESTINE IN GREATER NUMBERS IN 1910; THE HOLOCAUST; THE APOSTASY OF THE CHURCH BEGINNING IN 1910)--OF COURSE, ALL THESE LATTER EVENTS BEGAN OR ENDED BEFORE I WAS BORN. BUT WHAT ARE THE NEXT PROPHETIC EVENTS IN GOD'S TIMELINE THAT I SEE IN THE BIBLE IN ADVANCE OF THEM HAPPENING? HERE ARE THE NEXT 4: 1. A REGIONAL MIDEAST WAR: THIS YEAR, I BELIEVE. I WON'T SAY RIGHT NOW FROM WHERE I GET THAT, BUT IT WILL ENABLE THE SECOND SIGN. 2. THE ORTHODOX JEWS BEGINNING DAILY SACRIFICES, MORNING AND EVENING, ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT IN JERUSALEM. THEY ARE READY NOW TO BEGIN THESE. DANIEL 8:11-14 AND OTHER VERSES REFER TO THESE. 3. CONSTRUCTION OF A 4TH (AFTER SOLOMON'S, ZERUBBABEL'S AND HEROD'S) JEWISH TEMPLE ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT: 2 THESSALONIANS 2:3, 4 SAYS THE JEWISH ANTICHRIST WILL TAKE HIS SEAT THERE. 4. THE RESURRECTION AND RAPTURE: IN 2023, I BELIEVE. 1 THESSALONIANS 4:13-18 AND OTHER VERSES REFER TO THIS. I HOPE AND PRAY FOR A 5TH SIGN BEFORE THE 4TH: 5. A WORLDWIDE CHRISTIAN REVIVAL. I SEE SOME INDICATIONS OF THIS IN THE BIBLE, BUT I WON'T SUGGEST VERSES NOW. WHAT IS GOD'S CALL TO THE WORLD RIGHT NOW? HERE IT IS: REPENT AND BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD!
  22. OF 42 RESULTS FOR "PESTILENCE" IN THE NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE, HERE IS THE MOST INTERESTING: Habakkuk 3:5 New American Standard Bible (NASB): Before Him goes pestilence, And plague comes after Him. I BELIEVE THAT THIS REFERS TO CHRIST'S COMING AT THE RESURRECTION AND RAPTURE, WHICH I BELIEVE IS ONLY ABOUT 3 YEARS AWAY. NOBODY KNOWS THE DAY AND THE HOUR, BUT THAT IS A GOOD GUESS AT THE YEAR. 2030 IS THE END OF 6000 YEARS OF HUMAN HISTORY (AFTER 14 BILLION, WITHOUT MACRO-EVOLUTION), THE END OF 4000 YEARS OF JEWISH HISTORY (WHY ALL THE 40S ARE IN THE BIBLE: 40 JEWISH CENTURIES), AND THE END OF 2000 YEARS SINCE CHRIST'S CRUCIFIXION, BURIAL, RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION (CHRIST ROSE AT DAWN OF THE 3RD DAY TO SHOW HE WOULD RETURN AT DAWN OF THE 3RD MILLENNIUM). I BELIEVE THAT COVID-19 IS THE "PESTILENCE." THE "PLAGUE" IS BETTER TRANSLATED "FIRE." REVELATION 11 TELLS US THAT "TWO WITNESSES" WILL BE IN JERUSALEM IN THE FIRST 3 1/2 YEARS OF THE LAST 7 YEARS BEFORE CHRIST'S SECOND COMING. THEY WILL BE KILLED BY THE JEWISH ANTICHRIST. I BELIEVE, AS DO MANY, THAT THEY WILL BE MOSES AND ELIJAH (WHO WERE ON THE MOUNT OF TRANSFIGURATION). REMEMBER THAT IT WAS ELIJAH THAT CALLED FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN (1 KINGS 18). HERE IS WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT THE "TWO WITNESSES": Revelation 11:5 New American Standard Bible (NASB): And if anyone wants to harm them, fire flows out of their mouth and devours their enemies; so if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this way. WAKE UP, ALL! THIS IS WHERE WE ARE IN HUMAN HISTORY!

  24. I just wanted to let you know that God is doing a major work right now. He's pouring out his judgement on the church. I've been interceding for awhile now on behalf of the church and the nation. The Lord actually showed me the spiritual condition of the US in a dream. We are in a time of great upheaval. I cannot tell you all what's coming, but God has been exposing and cleaning house. God has been stirring the hearts of the people in my church to repent for the nation/church. It would be nice if you could uplift us/join us in prayer for the souls of the nation. I will share my dream with you about the state of America. I was sitting at a banquet table. I saw that there were stones on the tips of my fingers. They were so bright and translucent they were like clear crystal. I was told they were the blameless stones. For those who had been washed in the blood of Jesus. Then, I saw small balls like planets off a planetary model falling into my hand. One was labeled U.S. and had a small picture outline of all the US on it. The lady who was at the head of the table told me that I was given the US (as a prayer burden). It was then that ball, turned into a coconut. It cracked open to reveal the contents inside. There was one avocado sliced into 8 slices, and four blue berries. I said, "It's the fruit of the Earth." The people at the table grew quiet.. I awoke. I was given the interpretation of the dream. God has given me the burden for praying for the US. The state of the nation overall as a whole is in a desperate state. The fruit inside the coconut represented ALL the fruit that would be harvested, IF the church did not repent and start interceding for the nation. That is ALL the Lord would get. And the state of the fruit was not that great. The avocado was already beginning to brown, and the blueberries looked overripe.
