It’s the end of the world: A Biblical reference for upcoming events.
The season of the rapture has begun (Matthew 24:32-33,36, 1 Thessalonians 5:1-3), so we put together a letter, sharing it with our friends & family to outline the events that are right around the corner, because we don’t know how much longer we will be here. We, as in true believers in Jesus Christ and here, as in on planet earth. Sounds wild and it’s tough to wrap our minds around for sure, but what is certain is that the vanishing of true believers ( 1 Thess 4:15-18) is a real event and it’s going to take place soon. The rapture was a mystery of the ages, revealed to the Apostle Paul by Jesus Christ, nearly 2,000 years ago, for him to share as a hopeful event to look forward to in the midst of increasing chaos, corruption and God’s impending judgment & wrath upon the earth. The hope of this phenomenal event is for all who have found redemption and salvation through Christ and it is especially hopeful for those of us in this last generation, who are seeing the signs leading up to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to this earth (Matthew 24).
What is the event, exactly? The catching away/harpazo/rapture (harpazo is the Greek term- the original language in which the New Testament was written) is the snatching up of true believers in Christ off this plant, to be with Him in Heaven while the worst time in human history breaks loose, with no restraint, here on earth. Paul explains in 1 Thessalonians 4 and in 1 Corinthians 15:51-55, we will first hear a trumpet and the true believers who have died (fallen asleep, as the Bible refers to death of true christians) will rise up and then those of us who are alive on that day will ascend to meet the Lord Himself in the clouds above. Then, off to Heaven we will go. This rapture event is the prelude, leading up to the final 7 years of the world as we’ve known it. Jesus is coming back like He promised in the gospels and just as the Old Testament foretold through prophecy, given by God to the prophets thousands of years ago. The Bible refers to this time in history several ways: Jacob’s Trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), the Day of the Lord (Isaiah 2:12, Zeph 1:14-18), a time of God’s Wrath (Rev 6:15-17) and other end-times, biblical names belonging to this fast-approaching time of the worst suffering since the world was created (Matthew 24:21-23). The Day of the Lord is referring to the entire, years-long event from start to finish. So, from the time the first seal in Revelation is opened, which could very well be during the gap period- meaning after the rapture and before the 7 year tribulation actually begins. The prophecy in Daniel 9 tells us the 7 year tribulation countdown clock will begin the very day the Antichrist signs a (false) "peace” covenant with Israel and with “many” others (Dan 9:27). This event will be day one of the last seven years of earth, prior to Jesus coming back to rule here for 1,000 years.
So, the potential gap period I mentioned between the rapture and the beginning of the 7 year tribulation… is this a possibility? Probably- actually, highly likely. Paul says the departure must take place prior to the man of sin (Antichrist) being revealed. The Restrainer must be removed from planet earth prior to the Antichrist arrival on the world stage ( 2 Thessalonians 2:1-17). So, knowing that, about how long would it take for the Antichrist to 1.) arrive on the global political scene and 2.) gain the trust of “many” (Daniel 9:27) and 3.) solidify that trust so much so that they give their power over to him (Revelation 17:12-13)? With this in mind, maybe it could take at least 1 year if not more, right? Maybe less, perhaps more- we also have to keep in mind, the Antichrist will be capable of lying signs and wonders in order to deceive the people left on earth ( 2 Thess 2:9), which can be impressive to those who don’t necessarily study Biblical prophecy, keeping in mind, true believers in Christ will not be on earth at this point, so deception will be rampant. No matter how convincing it is, the Antichrist is the son of Satan but this man will deceive many, disguising himself as a charismatic, peacemaking leader, plus he will be able to perform supernatural signs, making him seem like a super-human, hero type of (false) savior. With that in mind, maybe it could speed up his global popularity a bit, putting his general acceptance by most citizens of earth around 8 or 9 months. What is known by Bible scholars and eschatologists is that the Antichrist will arrive on the scene after the rapture and before the signing of the (false) “peace” covenant between Israel and others. It is also possible, following the rapture, could be the Ezekiel 38 war where Russia, Turkey, Iran and others decide to invade Israel from the North (through Syria & Lebanon, which are just North of Israel- btw Russia now has a major military presence there, as does Turkey and of course, Iran). Several years ago, no one who keeps up with global political/economic/military news would ever fathom the alliance between these three nations, but the Bible is always 100% accurate. The prediction written by Ezekiel the prophet from what God showed him over 2,500 years ago is for our generation, the last generation that is alive when the world as we know it, ends. It’s important to note, the Bible is not clear when the Ezekiel 38 invasion will take place, but there are clues to suggest it will happen before the 7 year tribulation and likely yet not certain, after the rapture. It’s wild how 85-90% of Biblical prophecies have been fulfilled so far throughout the history of mankind, while the last 10-15% are being fulfilled now and the remaining will continue to be rapidly fulfilled just prior to and after the rapture, then throughout the tribulation. Then that is it, we are literally at the end of the Book. It’s an incredible time to be alive and also super sad that the Bible has been widely discredited over the centuries by self-obsessed, occultic elites who want to simply keep control (money) and push forward their own agenda, like founding father Thomas Jefferson, who literally cut out with scissors and a razorblade, parts of the Word of God to create his own “Jefferson Bible”. He cut out the book of Revelation altogether. Not a good idea according to Revelation 22:19.
Okay, back to the Antichrist gaining supreme, global popularity. This guy will be charismatic, well-spoken and attractive (Daniel 7:7-8, 20, 25), along with his ability involving the lying signs and wonders (supernatural powers) of Satan, which may allow him to gain a more swift global popularity, not to mention that there are evil, powerful elites behind the scenes, who are expecting a savior-type and will readily hand over power as they build the Antichrist up through their usual means of MSM (mainstream media) propaganda. So, to come up with a sort of timeline on his rise to power, I did a little research on the first super popular politician who arrived on the scene from virtually out of nowhere and gained a ton of popularity- former President Obama. Obama was a little-known junior senator from Illinois. While he did give the keynote address at the DNC (for then candidate, John Kerry) in Boston in 2004, it was not aired on mainstream media at all. Fast-forward, Obama announced his presidential candidacy in February 2007. He won the Democratic primaries, beating Hillary Clinton, and by August 2008 he was the Democratic presidential nominee. He won a decisive victory over McCain, with Obama winning both the popular vote and electoral college. He also flipped nine states that previously voted republican in the 2004 presidential election. All that to say, most voters didn’t know of Obama prior to him announcing his presidential run. It took him a little over 18 months to win over the necessary majority of the general public and a little over 2 more months to win the presidency. Obama secured his place as the most popular U.S. president in history to that point in time. I must add, Obama is not the Antichrist, I only did my unscientific research for the sake of knowing how long it may take for the Antichrist to secure his place on the world stage, prior to securing the 7-year false peace treaty with Israel, which will indicate there are a total of seven years remaining until Jesus Christ comes down to earth to end the horrible things that will have been ravaging the globe during those last seven years. Although, there is a ton of evidence suggesting Obama and some of his pals knowingly worship Satan, but that is an explanation for another time. For these purposes, it’s just relevant to say, he isn’t the Antichrist. The Antichrist will not rule from an office in Washington D.C. or from the United States at all. In fact, the U.S. is not mentioned in Biblical End Times prophecy (unless it is the coastlands, mentioned in Ezekiel 38-39), and I will need to dedicate an entire post to properly explain why, but here is the condensed version:
[ The short version is that the U.S. diminishes greatly from the global super power it is and has been. The United States’ masonic founders were intent on mirroring pagan Rome when this country was first “established”, thus why there are so many pagan statues of gods literally in every capitol city, especially D.C.- more on that another time but this country was not founded on Christianity, at all. Anyway, something happens to plumet the U.S. into being a non-factor between now and the beginning of the seven year tribulation. America probably sees it’s demise from a major natural disaster that takes out most of the country and perhaps that event is followed by an enemy invasion- maybe, the Bible is not clear. What is clear is that one of God’s oldest promises will not be forgotten when it comes to an impending judgement on this country: God will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel (Genesis 12:3). If you notice, as I write this in summer of 2021, America has now turned its back on Israel in the most blatant ways ever in U.S. history- from political figures in D.C. tweeting their anti-semitic vitrial to major corporations, like Ben & Jerry’s, and all throughout society (note the recent protests where participants call Israel “Occupied Palestine”, for example). The current administration is making horrible decisions at every turn and this will prove that judgement is coming to this country as predicted in the Bible. God will not sleep on His judgments of wicked leaders and indulgent evil that seems to be increasing at a fast pace here in the U.S. (and around the globe but speaking specifically for how things turn out in this country) - He is true to His Word; He is loving, patient and merciful and so He has waited but it is obvious now that judgement is truly on the way, not because I said so, it’s because the Living Word of God says so. The signs are all here- the self-loving, calling evil good and good as evil (Isaiah 5:20), Sodom and Gomorrah spirit that is infested throughout this country, coupled with the leaders of this country turning their back on Israel and making one nefarious decision after another is a ticking time bomb. I know it’s bad news but how else do I say it? God is the same as He was thousands of years ago and even before that. He will always be the same, forever and beyond boundaries of time; it is only man who has advanced to the point where someone like Elon Musk is even warning about the arrogance of smart people thinking AI won’t outdo and overtake humankind. We have warnings from every sector but, sadly, it seems not many people are paying attention to the signs. Man has fallen so far into sin, the deception of hedonism and self-focus that he cannot see the bright neon signs of the time in which we live. These things, these incredible and overwhelming prophecies, will take place whether a person believes they will or not and it is because it is written in the most remarkable ancient text in the history of the world- The Holy Scriptures, The True and Living Word of God (Matt 24:25), known as the Bible. The Truth is the Truth, even if many people think it is a lie. That is the scary part; I fell into the deceptive traps too and only hope the research I share now and until He comes for us can help even one person to see the real Light- who is Yeshua, Jesus Christ, our Savior and the only One who can grant eternal life in Paradise, His Kingdom. All you need to do is call on the name of the Lord (Romans 10:13) believing God the Father sent His only Son because He loves us so much, that whosoever believes in Him, will not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16). ]
Continuing. So, after my research on the first Obama presidential campaign, I realized I am no better off than I was before at guessing how long it will take the Antichrist to solidify his place as the sole ruler of what the elitist lizards call The New WOrld Order:) I’m guessing, at minimum, 1 year but maybe far less time and perhaps far more- only God knows. However, what we do know is that the Antichrist will appear on the scene after the rapture- that is biblically certain. Will the rapture be immediately followed by the Ezekiel 38 invasion of Israel that seems to turn nuclear? According to the Bible, this invasion by Russia, Turkey, Iran proxies and others is an event that shoves even more chaos onto the earth because people will watch as God supernaturally intervenes and the invading armies are pretty much destroyed by what seems to be a nuclear event and the attacking armies actually turn on each other, destroying themselves without successfully harming Israel. Plus there is an earthquake in the mix.
Regarding the rapture, the alien answer (aliens abducted people from around the world, suddenly, all at once) does seem to be the direction MSM, governments and religious entities, like the Vatican/Pope, are going to eventually explain the disappearance of millions from earth when the rapture happens. It is important to note that many military leaders, service members, world leaders, scientists and dignitaries have gone on the record to attest to the fact that aliens have shut down nuclear reactors over the years, rendering them useless and making aliens seem like they’re kind or benevolent beings. This is all part of the ultimate deception, so I can see the aliens coming on the scene just after the rapture and/or Ezekiel 38 invasion of Israel, with a message that goes something like this: “let us teach you humans how to be better by raising your consciousness and allowing us to oversee you for a while, btw we created you and Jesus is not the Messiah” type of message. It’s possible the Antichrist will come on the global scene around the same time and his lying supernatural wonders could be part of that scenario. Keep in mind that aliens were created by the fallen angels (bible calls them ‘gods’) that rebelled against God and were cast down to earth with Satan (Genesis 6, Jude 1:6, Luke 10:18, 2 Peter 2:4, Isaiah 14:12-15). It’s also helpful to keep in mind that the Antichrist wants to be worshipped, not as a god, but he wants to be worshiped as God and he will demand it by the midpoint (3.5 years) into the final 7 years of mankind- the tribulation period (Daniel 9, Matthew 24, 2 Thessalonians 2, Revelation 13). So, when trying to connect the dots, it makes sense the alien agenda and the Antichrist/NWO “leader” who arises after the rapture will somehow be connected. The point is, they’ll want to lead people away from Jesus Christ and towards the eventual, full on worship of the Antichrist. The False Prophet (likely whoever the Pope is at the time of the Rapture) will be in full support of the “alien agenda”, just a heads up.
This may very well sound like a sci-fi movie but it’s all true so, for those who are unsure what in the world is going on or, sadly, if you are left on earth after the rapture, it would be good to catch up on this information while you can because, whether it sounds like something out of a movie or not, it’s going to soon be the actual reality and very much a part of life for all those who are on earth when it takes place. Yes, the great deception that is coming for those on earth after the rapture is very, very real (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12, Daniel 8:25, Ephesians 5). I’ve put together an outline of useful material just below. This will help you piece together the alien/fallen angel portion of this post and what that has to do with Jesus’ Second Coming to earth. Notice on Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind where Dr. Steven Greer explains what he heard first hand from a world leader, global elite, who told him their agenda as far as alien disclosure is to “induce the Second Coming of Christ.” Keep in mind, Dr. Greer is not a believer. He sadly believes aliens are benevolent and here to help. Satan is a master of deception and father of lies (John 8:44) and will lead anyone to believe anything that keeps them from eternal life in Heaven. Dr. Greer did not make the documentary to push any sort of christian agenda whatsoever- this should be a clear indication that all these things are absolutely connected and by the grace of God and His love for mankind, the Truth and answers to what exactly in the world is going on these days is laid out for anyone who is willing to study the prophetic Word of God.
Helpful documentaries to piece the alien puzzle together: Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind, Countdown to Disclosure, both by Dr. Steven Greer and The Phenomenon, where current, sitting US senators plus others discuss the UAP/alien issue). All of these can be found on Amazon Prime or Apple TV. I recommend these documentaries because they are not from a Christian perspective, which makes them even more compelling, adding evidence that what the Bible says is 100% real and accurate. The people in each of these documentaries are close to the truth but miss the mark. The Bible says the deception that is coming in these Last Days is very convincing and is directly from Satan himself, so be aware and do not fall for the lie while watching the previously mentioned documentaries. Then, check out Higher Entities and Hollow Earth on Vimeo or order it from Skywatchtv.com. It’s a documentary by the Faull Brothers, who are two christian, investigative film-makers. Their films are really well put together and explain how aliens are truly demonic entities and others are soulless, biological robots, created by the fallen angels, who btw, are posing as friendly “space brothers” (read Genesis 6). More to come soon…
