The Last 1335 Days before Armageddon – Part 2A

Supplement 1 to Part 2, Event 6 (Chart of Events on Archive Update 102)

A JEWISH NEGEV WILDERNESS REMNANT OF 144,000!

SEALED PHYSICALLY AS THE FINAL 1335 DAYS BEGIN!

Revelation 7:1-4 – And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. [2] And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, [3] Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. [4] And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

THIS IS THE SEALING OF 144,000 BORN-AGAIN JEWS FROM PHYSICAL DEATH DURING THE TRIBULATION PERIOD UNTIL THE TIME OF REDEMPTION OF ALL THE SAVED. THEIR SPIRITUAL SEALING OCCURRED AT A MUCH EARLIER TIME, BUT THEY ARE SEALED HERE IN 7:4 FROM PHYSICAL DEATH AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 1335 DAYS UNTIL THE RAPTURE OF ALL BELIEVERS, WHEN THEY ALL RECEIVE GLORIFIED BODIES AT THE SOUNDING OF THE SEVENTH TRUMPET.

Ephesians 4:30 – And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

THEY ARE DRIVEN INTO THE NEGEV WILDERNESS AS PART OF A MUCH LARGER REMNANT OF SOME 1.8 TO 2 MILLION JEWS, THE “WOMAN” IN REVELATION 12.

Zechariah 13:8 – And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.

Revelation 12:6 – and THE WOMAN FLED into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

THE 144,000 ARE SAVED JEWS THAT WITNESS, ALONG WITH THE TWO WITNESSES, TO THE UNSAVED JEWS, AMONG WHICH THEY DWELL UP TO THE RAPTURE. THE WOMAN IS ISRAEL, AND THE 144,000 ARE THE REMNANT OF HER SEED, WHO IS ISRAEL’S MESSIAH, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Galatians 3:16 – Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

Revelation 12:5,6 – And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. [6] And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Revelation 12:17 – And the dragon was wroth with the WOMAN, and went to make war with the REMNANT of HER SEED, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

THE SEED OF THE WOMAN (THE 144,000) IS A WITNESS TO THE WOMAN ISRAEL UNTIL SHORTLY AFTER THE RAPTURE OF THE TWO WITNESSES. THEY ARE A 144,000 REMNANT SEED IN THE MIDST OF A MUCH LARGER REMNANT (THE WOMAN) THAT ENTERS THE MILLENNIUM FOLLOWING THE SECOND ADVENT OF CHRIST.

Revelation 11:7-13 – And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. [8] And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. [9] And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. [10] And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. [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. [12] And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. [13] And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the REMNANT were affrighted, AND GAVE GLORY TO THE GOD OF HEAVEN.

THIS IS A BELIEVING REMNANT OF 144,000 SEALED JEWS AMONG THE LARGER REMNANT OF 1.8 TO 2 MILLION UNBELIEVING JEWS. THEY ARE A CHURCH IN THE SAME NEGEV WILDERNESS WHERE THEIR FOREFATHERS WERE AN ASSEMBLY LED BY MOSES. IT WAS GOD’S SPIRIT DWELLING IN THE TABERNACLE AS HE DWELLS IN THE MIDST OF EACH ONE OF HIS LOCAL CHURCHES TODAY. HE WILL DWELL SPIRITUALLY AMONG THIS FUTURE ASSEMBLY OF 144,000 JEWS IN THE NEGEV WILDERNESS, AND THEY WILL GIVE GOD GLORY THROUGH HIS SON, JUST AS HE RECEIVES IT TODAY IN EACH ONE OF HIS OWN LOCAL CHURCHES. IT IS IMPORTANT TO REALIZE THAT THE FIRST CHURCH, ORGANIZED BY JESUS FOLLOWING HIS BAPTISM ON THIS EARTH, WAS AN ALL JEWISH CHURCH. WHEN JESUS WAS ASCENDING UP THROUGH A CLOUD FROM THEIR VIEW, HE WAS LOOKING DOWN ON AN ALL JEWISH LOCAL CHURCH IN JERUSALEM. WHEN HE RETURNS THROUGH THE CLOUDS AT HIS SECOND ADVENT, HE WILL BE LOOKING DOWN ON A JEWISH ASSEMBLY IN ISRAEL’S NEGEV. THE “CHURCH” IN ACTS 7:38 IS NOT A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH – BUT IT IS AN “ASSEMBLY” IN THE SAME NEGEV WILDERNESS WHERE A NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH WILL EXIST DURING THE FIRST 1260 DAYS OF A 1335 DAY PERIOD OF TRIBULATION.

Acts 7:37,38 – This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A PROPHET shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. [38] This is HE, that was in the CHURCH in the WILDERNESS with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:

Ephesians 3:21 – Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Ephesians 2:22 – In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

THE GREAT EARTHQUAKE OCCURS THE SAME HOUR THAT THE TWO WITNESSES ARE CAUGHT UP, AND A RAPTURE OF ALL BELIEVERS, INCLUDING THE JEWS MAKING UP THE 144,000, OCCURS SHORTLY AFTER THAT, BUT THERE IS A BRIEF PERIOD WHEN THEY GIVE GLORY TO GOD AS A FINAL WITNESS TO THE MUCH LARGER UNBELIEVING JEWISH REMNANT. REVELATION’S 11:13 EARTHQUAKE SUDDENLY FOLLOWS THE CATCHING OUT OF THE TWO WITNESSES, AND ENDS WOE TWO OF THE SIXTH TRUMPET. WHEN THE LAST TRUMP SOUNDS, (NUMBER SEVEN IN A SERIES), THE RAPTURE WILL OCCUR, AND WOE THREE COMES ON ALL THOSE LEFT BEHIND ON THE EARTH. MANY OF THE UNBELIEVING JEWS LEFT BEHIND BECOME BELIEVERS AFTER THE RAPTURE BECAUSE OF THE TESTIMONY THEY RECEIVED FROM THE 144,000, AND THE TWO WITNESSES, BEFORE THEY WERE CAUGHT UP.

Revelation 11:13-15 – And the SAME HOUR was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand and the REMNANT were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. [14] The second woe is PAST; and, behold, the third woe cometh QUICKLY. [15] And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

Matthew 24:21 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (It follows the 7TH trump)

Acts 2:19-21 – And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: [20] The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: [21] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. ((These are those saved after the rapture, which pass into his Millennium in bodies of flesh).

The Last 1335 Days before Armageddon – Part 2B

Supplement 2 to Part 2, Event 6 (Chart of Events on Archive Update 102).

WHILE GOD’S WRATH IS BEING POURED OUT ON THE EARTH FOLLOWING THE BLOWING OF THE SEVENTH TRUMP, THE 144,000 ARE BEING JUDGED IN HEAVEN, ALONG WITH THE SAVED OF ALL THE AGES. THOSE FEW BELIEVING DURING THE TIME OF GOD’S WRATH WILL KEEP THEIR GARMENTS, ENTERING INTO THE MILLENNIUM AS SAVED MEN AND WOMEN IN BODIES OF FLESH.

I Thessalonians 5:9 – For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Revelation 16:1,15,16 – And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of THE WRATH of God upon the earth. [15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. [16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

FOLLOWING THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF JESUS CHRIST IN REVELATION 11:18, THE 144,000 APPEAR IN HEAVEN IN GLORIFIED BODIES IN CHAPTER 14. THEY ARE IN HEAVEN WHILE GOD’S WRATH IS BEING POURED OUT ON THE EARTH, BUT THEIR PREVIOUS TESTIMONY OF THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL WILL BE SOUNDING FROM THE MIDST OF HEAVEN IN THE MINDS OF ALL STILL ON EARTH WHO HEARD IT. IT IS DELIVERED BY THE ANGEL (SPIRITUAL MESSENGER) INTO THEIR HEARTS, AND THOSE WHO RECEIVE IT WILL GO INTO THE MILLENNIUM AS SAVED SOULS STILL LIVING IN SINFUL BODIES OF FLESH – AS GOD’S MILLENNIAL REMNANT.

Revelation 14:1-7 – And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads. [2] And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: [3] And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. [4] These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. [5] And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. [6] And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, [7] Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

A SPIRITUAL MESSENGER (ANGEL) RECALLS THE MESSAGE TO MINDS THAT HEARD IT PRIOR TO THE RAPTURE, AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE IT BEFORE THE SECOND ADVENT OF CHRIST WILL BE SAVED. THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IT, AS GOD POURS OUT HIS ARMAGEDDON FURNACE OF WRATH, WILL BE KILLED IN THE FIERY FURNACE OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION, WHICH FOLOWS THE SEVENTH TRUMPET. BUT THE “ELECT,” CONSISTING OF THOSE WHO DO BELIEVE IT, WILL GO INTO CHRIST’S MILLENNIAL REIGN. IT IS NOT THE ENTIRE PERIOD OF 1260 DAYS THAT IS INVOLVED IN THE FIERY FURNACE, BUT RATHER A VERY BRIEF PERIOD THAT FOLLOWS THE BLOWING OF THE SEVENTH TRUMP. IT IS DESCRIBED IN ALL THE SCRIPTURES THAT FOLLOW.

Matthew 13:40-42 – As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world. [41] The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; [42] And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 24:21,22 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. [22] And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the ELECT’S sake those days shall be shortened.

Daniel 12:1 – And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in THE BOOK.

Revelation 16:16-18 – And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. [17] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

Revelation 19:19-21 – And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

THE “ELECT” OF MATTHEW 21:22 ARE THOSE FOUND “WRITTEN IN THE BOOK” IN DANIEL 12:1, WHICH IS THE “BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE” IN MALACHI 4:16-18 THAT CARRIES THE NAMES OF THOSE TO WHOM THE “SUN” (SON) OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WILL ARISE IN THE CONTINUOUS NARRATIVE OF MALACHI FROM 4:16 TO 5:3.

Malachi 3:16 to 4:3 – Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a BOOK of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. [17] And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. [18] Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not. [1] For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. [3] And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

Romans 10:17,13 – So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. [10] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Event 10 (Chart of Events on Archive Update 102)

Revelation 12:6,17 – And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. [17] And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

The 2 Witnesses Head the 144,000-Strong Church in the Negev Wilderness, and they testify to the rest of the 1.8 to 2 Million Jews with Them “the testimony of Jesus.” During this Time the Antichrist will Control Jerusalem.

Revelation 11:2,3 – But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. [3] And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. (42 Months = 1260 Days = 3 & ½ Years).

Event 11

The Two Witnesses are Killed by the Antichrist between the Second and Third Woes (the Sixth and Seventh Trumpets), and are Resurrected Three and One-Half Days Later in the Sight of Their Enemies, as they Ascend in a Cloud into Heaven.

Revelation 11:7-12 – And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. [8] And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. [9] And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. [10] And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. [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. [12] And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

Event 12

In the same Hour of Their Ascent into Heaven a Great Earthquake occurs, and 7,000 of Their Enemies in the City of Jerusalem are Slain. And the Remnant (The Local Church of 144,000 in the Negev Wilderness) gives Glory to God for it.

Revelation 11:13 – And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

Romans 11:5 – Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Event 13

On the Blowing of the Seventh Trumpet All of the Saved, Along with the 144,000, are Raptured, and will then be Judged for Rewards, Along with All the Saved of all the Ages. For the First Time since God created Adam, all the saved from “the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of the Lord” in heaven.

Revelation 11:14,15,18 – The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. [15] And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

The “mystery” of God that John described as “finished” in the “days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he sounds the seventh trumpet,” is the “last trump” that Paul “shewed” us as sounding when the dead in Christ arise, which would be the completion of the “mystery.”

Revelation 10:7 – But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

I Corinthians 15:51,52 – Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

I Thessalonians 4:16,17 – For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Event 14 (Chart of Events on Archive Update 102)

Zechariah 13:8 – And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.

The one-third left in the land will represent “ALL” of Israel in the flesh that is left in Israel in the vast Negev Wilderness, after being driven there by the attack of ten Arab nations. The one-third will probably number in the neighborhood of 1.8 to 1.9 million, and among them will be some 144,000 born again Israelites who have the testimony of Jesus and keep the commandments of God.

Revelation 7:4 – And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Revelation 12:17 – And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

The woman represents “all” of a remnant of Israel left in the land of Israel. The 144,000 is of the flesh of the woman Israel, but has been born again of the Spirit of the Seed of the Anointed Man Child she brought forth some 2,000 years ago.

After the 144,000 are Caught Out, then the Remnant of the One-Third will believe the previous pre-rapture Testimony given by the 144,000 and the Two Witnesses, and place their Faith in Jesus Christ as the Messiah of Israel. Israel did not go through a Great Tribulation Period before or during the Time of the Man Child Seed’s “Immanuel with Us,” and they rejected him. This Time Israel will Suffer Great Travail in the Negev for 1260 Days Before his Second Advent. When what remains of the one-third of Israel finally believes while in the Negev, THEY will be born as a Nation in a Single Day. And THIS is the Remnant of Flesh he will bring through the Seven Vials of Wrath into His Millennial Reign.

Zechariah 13:9 – And I will bring THE THIRD PART through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, IT IS MY PEOPLE: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.

Romans 9:26-29 – And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called THE CHILDREN OF THE LIVING GOD. [27] Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, A REMNANT SHALL BE SAVED: [28] For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. [29] And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us A SEED, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.

Romans 11:25-29 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. [26] AND SO ALL ISRAEL SHALL BE SAVED: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: [27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. [28] As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes. [29] For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

Isaiah 66:7-10 – Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. [8] Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as ZION TRAVAILED, SHE BROUGHT FORTH HER CHILDREN. [9] Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God. [10] Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:

Event 15

What Happens to the 144,000 that are Raptured on the Blowing of the Seventh Trumpet?

Revelation 7:4 – And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.

Revelation 14:1-5 – And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads. [2] And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: [3] And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. [4] These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. [5] And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

The Saved are Judged in Heaven for Rewards or the Lack of Them.

Galatians 6:7 – Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Revelation 22:12-14 – And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. [13] I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. [14] Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

II Corinthians 5:10 – For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Event 17

What Happens on the Earth while the Saved are being Judged in Heaven for Rewards?

Revelation 15:7 to 16:1– And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. [8] And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. [1] And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

NONE OF GOD’S CHILDREN WILL EVER SUFFER THE WRATH THAT COMES UPON THE LOST. THEY SUFFER HIS WRATH BECAUSE THEY REMAIN UNDER HIS CONDEMNATION, NEVER HAVING PUT THEIR FAITH IN HIS GRACE IN HIS SON. SOONER OR LATER A FALSE PEACE WILL COME TO ISRAEL, WHICH IS SOON FOLLOWED BY THE ATTACK OF THE ANTICHRIST AND, SOME 1260 DAYS LATER, THERE WILL BE THE GREAT FINAL BATTLE KNOWN AS ARMAGEDDON. HAVE YOU BEEN PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO ETERNAL LIFE, OR ARE YOU STILL UNDER THE CONDEMNATION OF GOD?

I Thessalonians 5:3,4,9 – For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. [4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. [9] For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

John 5:24 – Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

Romans 10:9,10,13 – That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Event 18 – Armageddon – Plowshares into Weapons.

I am convinced we are living in what are called “the latter days” of what is commonly referred to as the Age of the Gentiles or the Age of the Church. We are not in what is referred to as “The Tribulation Period,” but we are rapidly approaching its beginning. The prophet Joel, in the verses that follow, describes the final event in the tribulation period, the battle of Armageddon in Israel, but we are several years away from that event. He closes the horrific event, in verses 16 and 17, with the Messiah returning to end this final battle, and then establishing his millennial kingdom.

Joel 3:9-16 – Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up: [10] Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong. [11] Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Lord. [12] Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about. [13] Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great. [14] Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. [15] The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining. [16] The Lord also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the Lord will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.

Event 19 – The Second Advent of Christ coming in Glory with all of his Saints to win and end the final battle of Armageddon.

Luke 21:27 – And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Jude 14 – And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

Revelation 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.

Revelation 19:12-21 – His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. [13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. [14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. [17] And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel! Part 1

ISAIAH 66:1 – Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? And where is the place of my rest?

The Lord addresses Israel, and pre-addresses his query by reminding Israel of the size of a building it would take to contain his person and kingdom. The point is that they cannot build such a building. But it is also a stark reminder God does not need a building in which to dwell. Where could you put such a building?

When Isaiah wrote this, Solomon’s temple was in full blossom in Jerusalem, so Israel had a beautiful temple for a place to worship. God reminds them in 66:1,2 that He is much greater than his temple, and that they are not worshipping the building, but the One whose Spirit indwells it.

ISAIAH 66:2 – For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.

Matthew 5:3 – Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Romans 2:28,29 – For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: [29] But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

This is the type of man God has always sought to worship him in spirit and in truth.

There was only one man, absolutely perfect in having these characteristics from birth to death in sinless flesh, and that man was Jesus Christ, God himself in perfect flesh. He alone was qualified to present himself, his body and his blood, as the total one-time offering for the sins of all who would accept him as their offering.

Solomon’s temple, which “had been” built by human hands made by the hand of God, was indeed a thing of beauty, but its ordinances and sacrifices all pointed as the figures, types, or symbols of an anointed man whom God looked to as a man worthy of being indwelled by God in all his fullness, the God-man, Christ Jesus.

Luke 2:40 – And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

Luke 2:52 – And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

Philippians 2:5-12 – Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: [6] Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: [7] But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: [8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

II Corinthians 5:19 – To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

Colossians 2:9,10 – For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. [10] And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

Ephesians 2:22 – In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

Israelis that were placing their faith in the temple or its sacrifices rather than the mercy and grace of God’s Spirit indwelling it, were wasting God’s time and theirs.

ISAIAH 66:2,3 – For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word. [3] He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.

Psalm 51:15-17 – O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. [16] For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering. [17] The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

The temple ordinances and sacrifices meant nothing, and were not accepted, unless they came from a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart.

Hebrews 10:4-13 – For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. [5] Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: [6] In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. [7] Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. [8] Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; [9] Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. [10] By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Jesus spoke John 5:39-41 to those Jews who rejected him as the Messiah. (John 5:18)

John 39-41 – Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. [40] And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. [41] I receive not honour from men.

God’s own rejected him in the days of the prophets who warned them of the Assyrian and Babylonian captivities that were coming on them for their evil conduct. God chose their delusions and brought their fears upon them as a consequence of their actions. Jesus, as the Prophet described by Moses, also told the generation of his day of the consequences of their actions in rejecting him.

ISAIAH 66:4 – I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

Matthew 23:27-39–Woe unto you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness. [28] Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. [29] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, [30] And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. [31] Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. [32] Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. [33] Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? [34] Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: [35] That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. [36] Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. [37] O Jerusalem, Jerusalem thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! [38] Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.[39] For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Matthew 5:8 – Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Romans 2:29 – But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel! Part 2

Part 1 was an exposition of Isaiah 66:1-4. It closed with the rejection of Jesus by his own people, which was also a rejection of the disciples for what they taught after his resurrection.

Matthew 23:37-39 – O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! [38] Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. [39] For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

The exposition continues in Isaiah 66:5 describing the return of Christ at the Second Advent with the penalty his people will suffer for the rejecting him and well as his brethren.

ISAIAH 66:5 – Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.

Micah and Isaiah wrote in the same time period. Micah also indicated that Christ would temporarily give Israel up until she travailed through the tribulation period. At the end of her travail she would see her Messiah brought forth again at his Second Advent. His brethren of the church age would rejoice, but the descendants of those who rejected him would be ashamed of the actions of their forefathers, as well as their own.

Luke 22:21-30 – But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. [22] And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed! [23] And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing. [24] And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. [25] And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. [26] But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. [27] For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth. [28] Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. [29] And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me; [30] That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Revelation 1:5-7 – 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, [6] And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. [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.

Revelation 20:2-6 – And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, [3] And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. [4] And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. [5] But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. [6] Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel! Part 3

We have already covered Isaiah 66:1-5 in Parts 1 and 2. Even though we covered verse 5 in Part 2, I would like to continue with it as I continue expositing on Isaiah 66.

Written some 700 years before the birth of Messiah, this chapter extends itself through his resurrection into his Millennial Reign, and mentions the Heaven Age which is to follow. The future disciples of Messiah were the ones who were to be hated, and the “brethren” who were to hate them were the Jewish leaders who were going to reject him. These leaders thought their action of leading the people to demand his crucifixion for his blasphemous claim to be God, would cause the Lord they worshipped to be glorified, as they said, “Let the Lord be glorified.” And, in a quite different way from what they expected, it did. The fulfillment of what I just stated in this paragraph is graphically described long before it happened throughout the Book of Acts. And Jesus also described it before it happened in Luke 21:12-17. (See Archive Prophecy Update Number 106)

Luke 21:12-17 – But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. [13] And it shall turn to you for a testimony. [14] Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: [15] For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. [16] And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. [17] And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake.

And, indeed, the Lord was glorified in a quite different way from what the Pharisee and scribes expected.

John 17:1-5 –These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: [2] As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. [3] And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. [4] I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. [5] And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

But the Lord’s glory will also be manifested to all at his Second Advent – Those who rejected him will be very ashamed, but those who received him will filled with joy as Isaiah wrote: “Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.” Paul wrote of this in II Thessalonians.

II Thessalonians 1:7-12 – And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; [10] When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. [11] Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: [12] That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Israel had no excuse for rejecting him. Isaiah told them 700 years before his birth he would be born of a woman of Israel, a virgin, and that he would be God with them.

Isaiah 7:14 – Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

They had no excuse for rejecting him. Isaiah told Israel what God was sending Messiah to do if was accepted by them as the Messiah – He would bring in the Kingdom as its King. He preached it to them, but they would not believe him, nor John or the Prophets.

Isaiah 9:6,7 – For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. [7] Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Matthew 4:17 – From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Micah also prophesied some 700 years before Messiah’s birth, named his birthplace, and told what he would do, but they still rejected him. So God temporarily gave them up as his chosen people, but with a promise he would return.

Micah 5:2,3 – But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. [3] Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.

“Therefore” is a conclusion to Micah 5:1,2 that explains why the Messiah of Israel gave “them up.” Because they beat him and rejected him as their judge, they came under judgment because they would not let him judge them. God’s judgment has been on them for some two thousand years. Without their God to deliver them, they have become the most persecuted, prosecuted, and rejected people on this earth. The Nazi burning, torturing, and butchering of some six million Jews was beyond belief. And yet I love them tenaciously. Why? Because their Messiah, who forgave them on the cross, is alive in me, and in the near future he will return to be their Messiah, their God with them. The word “until,” in the second phrase of this verse, makes the point that he has not forsaken them forever, but only “until” they have passed through the final judgment for having judged him, which consists of the last 1260 days of travail in the tribulation period. Christ will come forth at his Second Advent as the Lion of Judah to rule over the remnant of Israel that survives the tribulation period, and will bring a remnant of his brethren with him. In verse three he rejected them with “therefore,” then told them they would suffer travail “until” he came back to the earth and “then,” that is, at his Second Advent, all of the remnant of his “brethren” would return to live on the same planet with him.

Matthew 23:38,39 – Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. [39] For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Revelation 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.

Zechariah 14:5 – And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

Hebrews 2:11 – For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Romans 11:5 – Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

Romans 2:29 – But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel! Part 4

ISAIAH 66:6 – A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompense to his enemies.

The future voice prophesied to come from the temple in the city of Jerusalem was the voice of Jesus the Messiah. The prophecy was fulfilled when Jesus first came to the temple, after his baptism, and condemned their manner of conducting worship by driving out those defiling it. He cleansed it like a refiner’s fire removes impurities from precious metals or as fullers’ soap whitens wool.

The “messenger” who prepared the way before Messiah was John the Baptist. The “messenger of the covenant” was Jesus the Messiah, who confirmed the covenant of Genesis 3:15,21 and Abraham 16:18 in his blood. He confirmed it when he was cut-off, crucified, as he was prophesied to do in Daniel 9:27 in the midst of Daniel’s 70th Week. (Please See Archive Prophecy Updates 230B continuously through 233, Parts I through 9 of Daniel’s 70 Weeks of Years)

Malachi 3:1,2 – Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. [2] But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ sope:

Matthew 3:1-3,7,8 – In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, [2] And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. [3] For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. [7] But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? [8] Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: [12] Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

John 2:13-16 – And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem, [14] And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: [15] And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables; [16] And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise.

ISAIAH 66:6,7 – A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompence to his enemies. [7] Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.

Before the nation of Israel travailed with birth pangs associated with the “time of Jacob’s trouble” Jesus, her Messiah, was born to her from the womb of the Virgin Mary.

Associated events from Messiah’s birth to his Second Advent are outlined in Revelation 12:1-17

Revelation 12:4,5 – And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. [5] And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

Revelation 12:12-14,17 – Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. [13] And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. [14] And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. [17] And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Please see Archive Birth Pang Numbers 36 to 43)

ISAIAH 66:7 – Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.

Jeremiah 30:7 – Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

I Thessalonians 5:3,4 – For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. [4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.

Matthew 24:21 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

ISAIAH 66:7,8 – Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. [8] Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in -one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.

Romans 9:26 – And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.

Zechariah 13:9 –And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.

Romans 11:25-27 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. [26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: [27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

I Peter 2:25 – For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

[17] Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel! Part 5

ISAIAH 66:7-9 – Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child. [8] Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children. [9] Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.

I have already fully exposited on Isaiah 66:1 to 8 in Parts 1 through 4. In brief, Israel’s Messiah was born and rejected hundred of years before her still future great tribulation, through which she must pass for her rejection of Jesus Christ. Yes, the earth will be made to bring forth a nation in one day at once at the end of the tribulation. He makes the point that he would not put Israel through the horrific time of birth pangs, bring her to the point of being his nation, his people, once again, but then shut up her womb to not let her children come forth to him. Two-thirds of Israel will perish, but God will being a remnant of his children, his elect, through this horrible time of unbelievable terror, and he will claim them as his people, and they will claim him as the Lord their God.

Malachi 3:16-18 – Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another, and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. [17] And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. [18] Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

ISAIAH 66:9 – Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.

The Lord will bring Israel to the travail of the birth pains of I Thessalonians 5:3,4. They will not escape them but they will be delivered from them.

Isaiah 26:19-21 –Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. [20] Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. [21] For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

Romans 11:25-28 – For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. [26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: [27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. [28] As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes.

ISAIAH 66:10-12 – Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: [11] That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. [12] For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.

Micah 4:2 – And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

Christ Returns to Dwell during Millennial Reign!

Isaiah 66:10-12 – Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: [11] That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. [12] For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.

Christ will return at the battle of Armageddon to end the tribulation period, which is “the time of Jacob’s (Israel’s) trouble. A remnant of Israel will come through the Tribulation Period, saved out of Armageddon to enter the Millennial Reign of their Messiah, Jesus Christ, as the ruling nation on the earth. When the iniquity of the Gentile age comes into its fullness, then the blindness of Israel will cease, and the remnant of Israel will believe and be saved from their sins.

Jeremiah 30:7 – Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

Micah 5:2-7 – But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. [3] Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel. [4] And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. [5] And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men. [6] And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders. [7] And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from the Lord, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.

Micah 5:8,9 – And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.

Revelation 16:17-21 – And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

[19] And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [21] And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

Malachi 4:1-3 – For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. [2] But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. [3] And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

ISAIAH 66:16 – For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many.

The following Scriptures are associated with the same period of time as Isaiah 66:16:

[1] And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

[13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. [14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. [17] And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.

ISAIAH 66 – The Past, Present, and Future of Israel – Part 8

Great Chaos just before and as Christ Returns to Dwell on Earth!

ISAIAH 66:15-17 – For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. [16] For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many. [17] They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.

We exposited fully on Isaiah 66:15,16 in Part 7 concerning the horrific fiery destruction of unbelievers when Christ returns, and now, in verse 17, we find God’s description of the characteristics of those who will be consumed by his wrath.

They are self-sanctified and self-purified, worshipping demons in the concealed groves, with the one tree emulating the eating of the fruit of the forbidden tree in the garden of Eden, which corresponds with their eating of the forbidden swine’s flesh, the abomination, and the mouse. It may be that “the abomination” refers to a particularly heinous sin of “eating” blood of an animal or the flesh of a specific one, but it is more likely it refers in general to all types of flesh prohibited to them under the Law of Moses. The “mouse” is probably what we identify as the well known hamster. In any case these people, who were self-sanctified to all their observers, had secret sins that were not hidden from God, and would suffer being consumed together at the coming of the Lord, as those described in II Thessalonians 1:7-10.

ISAIAH 66:18 – For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.

This verse refers to his gathering the nations together for the last great battle of Armageddon, and the glory he refers to is the glory of Christ, as he comes in the sky through the clouds to win and end the war. The glory of his being will be the sign that he sets among them at his coming.

Revelation 16:16 – And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

Luke 21:25-29 – And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

ISAIAH 66:19 – And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.

This refers to the remnant of the armies in Ezekiel 38 and 39 that are almost completely destroyed by the Second Advent of Christ at the final battle of Armageddon.

Ezekiel 38:21 to 39:4 – And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord God: every man’s sword shall be against his brother. [22] And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone. [23] Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the Lord. [1] Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: [2] And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: [3] And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. [4] Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

Revelation 19:17-21 – And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

Ezekiel 37:21,22 – And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: [22] And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

Great Chaos just before and as Christ Returns to Dwell on Earth, which will begin His Millennial Reign!

We have already exposited on verses 15 through 18 in previous Archive Prophecy Updates).

Isaiah 66:15-19 – For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. [16] For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many. [17] They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord. [18] For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. [19] And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.

Jesus Christ will return to end the final battle of Armageddon, and only one-sixth of Gog’s army in Israel will remain alive after having seen his glory descend over Israel. They will rush to return to their homelands in great fear, to tell those who are left alive there of what they saw happen when Christ descended. The glory of Christ himself will be the sign “set among them,” which they witnessed, and they will declare it to their fellow countrymen from whence they came.

Luke 21:25-28 – And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; [26] Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. [27] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. [28] And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Ezekiel 39:1-5 – Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: [2] And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: [3] And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand. [4] Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured. [5] Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

Revelation 19:16-21 – His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. [13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. [14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. [17] And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; [18] That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. [19] And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. [20] And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. [21] And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

Micah 5:6 – And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders (See Archive Prophecy Updates 66, 67, and 68).

When the one-sixth of Gog’s Armageddon army flees home and informs their countries of what they witnessed in Israel, their homelands will return all remaining Jews in their countries, by means of whatever kind of transportation that remains after the terrible devastation of the great tribulation period. From that time forward, for a thousand years, the nations of the world will recognize Israel as the leader of all nations, and their returned Messiah, Jesus Christ, as the King of kings.

ISAIAH 66:20 – And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.

The Jews they return to Israel, from all the countries where they were scattered by the forces of the Gentiles, will be received as an offering in a cleansed vessel. Then the house of the Lord (the Millennial Temple) will be built, and God will take priests from among them to minister in it during Messiah’s Millennial Reign.

ISAIAH 66:21 – And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord.

Ezekiel 43:1-7 – Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east: [2] And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters: and the earth shined with his glory. [3] And it was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city: and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell upon my face. [4] And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east. [5] So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house. [6] And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me. [7] And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places.

Ezekiel 37:21-26 – And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: [22] And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all: [23] Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. [24] And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. [25] And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever. [26] Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

November 20, 2024: According to Bible Prophecy in Daniel 11:40-45; Israel Military Forces will push northward and during this current event or in the near future, the Middle East terrorist groups and other Arab nations, in an organized plan, as a collective unit; the united Islamic forces in the Middle East will attack Israel. This battle will cause the death of 2/3rds of the Jewish population in Israel, according to Bible Prophecy in Zechariah 13:8-9. Israel forces will be met with the army of the Biblical Islamic-Assyrian-Antichrist (Micah 5:5) who will be directly empowered by the Ancient Dragon, who is the archangel Lucifer; the Devil, namely Satan (Revelation 13); with the support of the terrorist groups and several other Arab nations. This leader will conquer the Land from Dan to Beersheva. Afterwards, the Islamic leader who conducts the attack or the following one; will establish an Islamic Caliphate of Ten Arab Nations in the Levant (Daniel 7 and Revelation 12, 13 and 17); or something along this frame of thought. It will last for 3 ½ years, in which: the Seven Trumpets of Revelation will begin and on the 7th Trumpet, the Christian Rapture a.k.a. the Catching Out will occur; the Seven Vials of Wrath for about 45 days, then afterwards: the Second Coming will take place and the Millennial Reign will begin. At an appointed time: the Lord GOD (’ă-ḏō-nāy Yah-weh) will bring this to pass; as the One Being who is the Sovereign Master and Creator of the Universe; will use the Islamic Antichrist and the Arab nations to fulfill His plan for the Nation of Israel; Ezekiel 38:1-23. He will allow 2/3rds of the Jewish population to be killed (about 4.8 million); with 1/3rd (about 2.4 million) being driven into the Negev Wilderness for a 3 ½ year time period. They will be preached to: by the Two Witnesses and the 144,000 Jewish/Christian Assembly/Church in Negev/Israel concerning the Gospel of the New Testament. After the 1,335 days of this Prophecy, in Daniel 12:12; the Parouisa event will occur and the Millennial Reign will begin; allowing the Jewish Nation to proclaim the New Testament Gospel Message to the world for the next 1,000 years. When these events are fully visible, the we all will know for certain, it will be the End of the Age of Grace; as the Great Tribulation Period will finally be occurring for 3 ½ years, with great Earthquakes, Volcanic Eruptions, Tsunamis and a Comet striking the earth; then the 7^th Trumpet announces the Catching out of any True Christian Believers still alive on earth; then after about a 45 day time period of the Wrath of God from the Seven Vials of Revelation producing a global Volcanic Holocaust; the Second Coming or Parousia will take place as the Lord Jesus Christ will Return in a massive Volcanic Ash Cloud that will have completely encircled the earth…

***

The “Time of Your Life” is slipping away; don’t get “Caught in a Snare” before the “Second Coming” of the “Son of Man” and all of a sudden, your body fades away; as it returns to the elements of the earth; then you pass through the “Gate of Eternity”…; into the: “Dark Universe” PDF.

I would encourage you to listen to some of these Sermons and read the Bible Studies on this website; including for certain: the Bible itself; along with truthful Bible Study books, while you still have time in your life. You should quickly cut out a lot of the nonsense distractions; that consume the time in your life; because the “Age of Grace” is about to End!

Make certain; if at all possible, you are part of a Scriptural “Local” New Testament Assembly; before you depart this life and have to appear before the Judgment Seat of the Lord Jesus Christ!!!
