Rapture of the Church

Rapture of fhe church

8 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
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.
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.” (2nd Corinthians 5:8-11)

Wondering about the end times and the rapture can cause confusion, worry and fear for a lot of people, even Christians! For ages people have tried to figure out the exact time that the prophecy of Jesus's return will happen. The best place to turn for answers about the rapture is Scripture! God tells us everything we need to know in the Bible. There are some things that God has left a mystery for us, but has given us enough information in His Word that we should have complete confidence and hope in the Hope of our Salvation.

11 “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.(Titus 2:11-14)

The opening verses speak of a time when those who are found in Jesus Christ will stand before Him and receive what has been done in our body, either for Him, or for ourselves.

WORK TO SHOW THYSELF APPROVED

As a Christian believer in Christ our Lord, our service is to be about our Father's business. Jesus gave us commands to follow and rewards will be coming for a job well done and contributing to the building of the Kingdom of God. I don't know about you, but I long to hear the words come from my Lord Jesus “well done thou good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of thy Lord” This from what I can gather from scripture happens to each of us who are found with the robe of righteousness that only comes from accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. That robe is not our righteousness, but we are clothed with His righteousness, and our ABBA Father only sees the glory of His Son found in us when we finally stand before Him.

Some question the timing of the return of our Lord Jesus and have all kinds of theories, being Pre-Trib, Pre-wrath, Post-Trib, (or in the extreme) no rapture at all, as Jesus will come to us and we, by our own endeavors create a utopia and we deliver the Church to Jesus when He returns. But what does the Bible say? Which belief is the truth? As I said, all the answers to this question are found in the pages of your Bible.

What I find among many believers, or even unbelievers, is a misunderstanding of what scripture is saying. The Bible has the concept of the removal of the Church BEFORE the coming tribulation all over its pages and a wise person in these last days, mines them out like precious jewels, or as a discovery of a vein of gold in the earth.. Let us take a journey down the verses that speak of this time of the “Harpazo” or the snatching away of the Church of the Living God in what is popularly called “the Rapture” .

LET'S START IN THE OLD TESTAMENT WITH ISAIAH

17” Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord.
18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
19 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.” (Isaiah 26:17-21)

For the believer in the pre-tribulation removal of the Church, this is where I like to start, as the prophet Isaiah saw the removal of God's people, both the living and the resurrected departed from their graves. Isaiah speaks of the dead rising to new life, even as dew on the herbs and the earth, its graves, casting out her dead in resurrection. The prophet sees judgment coming upon the earth and tells God's people to enter into their chambers and shut their doors to hide them from the wrath of Almighty God. God will punish the “earth dwellers” for their unrighteous acts and evil they have done in rebellion to His authority over all creation. And Jesus will stain His robes with their blood, as we see in Revelation chp. 19 when our Lord returns with the armies of heaven. It is not His blood, but the blood of those He has trodden down in His righteous wrath. One wonders what chambers is God telling Isaiah that the people of God will enter into. Then I remember what Jesus said to His disciples, even saying it to us.

14:1 “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.” (John 14:1-4)

For nearly 2000 years, our Lord God has been preparing a glorious mansion for each of His brethren, and God the Father's children. Jesus calls them mansions, and I can't imagine, even trying to envision the splendor of what God has prepared for us.

9 “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.” (1st Corinthians 2:9-10)

But note in one passage, God tells us to shut our doors, and Jesus tells that we will come to Him, to be where He is, not coming to where we are. Question. Where is Jesus right now? Of course, the answer is at the right hand of God the Father. Jesus said He would come again, to RECEIVE YOU UNTO MYSELF. Note that He will do the receiving. We will not receive Him, but He will receive us.

THE TWO COMINGS OF OUR LORD FOR AND WITH THE CHURCH

The Bible speaks of two comings, that many people cannot see, even written right in front their eyes, or they have not read the Bible at all, but take the word of others who convince them of this error.
As spoken of, many people have tried to pinpoint the time of the return of Jesus for 2000 years, and on a Christian forum that I host, I have had people proclaim that no one knows the hour of the Lord's return and use it as a reason to scoff that Jesus is not coming anytime soon. And though that is true that we don't know the exact timing of His return, we have been given many clues that point to the season of His return, not for judgment, but for removal of His chosen people, the Bride of Christ. So what are those verses that speak of the return of Jesus, most likely sooner than anyone of this world even thinks?
One of the most quoted passage of verses that points to the coming of our Lord is found in 1st Corinthians:

50 “Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 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.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?”(1st Corinthians 15-50-55)

This is Jesus coming for His church, and then later in Revelation chp. 19, He proclaims that He will come to rule and reign and the saints are with Him, clothed in linen, white and clean, a sign of the saints.

Note verse 52 in 1st Corinthians? In the twinkling of an eye at the last trump. Many people make an error, because they have a pre-conceived notion of a post Tribulation return of Jesus Christ to rule and reign for 1000 years and the 7th angel blowing his trumpet, and don't take the historical aspect that many Jewish people understand, but those who misunderstand are ignorant of Jewish terminology, because they don't believe that the Feasts of the Lord are still in effect for us today. What is the term that points to a Feast of the Lord quoted above? And note that the 7th angel of Revelation is not the same trumpet blown in this passage. Why? One produces joy, the other indescribable horror of the 7th angel's trumpet. They are NOT the same trumpet Paul and John describe.

THE COMING FEAST OF TRUMPETS

In Jewish life, since the giving of God's Law to the Hebrew people at Mt. Sinai, God also gave them appointed times in their calendar that would proclaim markers, or Holy Convocations that they were to observe. Even they did not understand, as it was for us, not for them but they observed in the letter, but we look at it in the spiritual sense of “God's Plan for Mankind” or the salvation of humanity based on God's appointed times. If you follow, or have in the past, any of my messages, you know that there are four Feast unto the Lord in the Spring, and three in the fall. We have established in the past sermons that Jesus fulfilled each of the Spring Feast days, called Holy Days on the exact day of their observance. Let me recap what those days were completed by Jesus and then we'll look at what He will complete in the near future.
The four Holy Days, or Feast days that were fulfilled by Christ in the Spring were:

-Passover- Jesus became our Passover Lamb and was slain on the exact day of its observance.

-Feast of Unleavened Bread-Christ was slain outside the camp and was buried along with our sins that He took upon Himself.

-Feast of First Fruits-on the Sunday after Passover, the priest would wave a barley sheaf before the Lord in the Temple, as being the first fruits of their harvest. At the exact same time, Jesus was before God our Father, and became the first fruits of them born of the dead and completed payment in His own blood for the remission of the sins of the world and those who believe on His Name.

-Feast of Pentecost-on the exact day, the Holy Spirit came to those in the upper room and the church was born.

And what of the coming fall feast of the Lord, what is God's plan that continues?the Feast of Trumpets, or return of the King, called “no man knoweth the day or the hour,” because they keep two days, as it is the only day that starts when a small sliver of the moon is visible.
After this, the Jewish people call the next 10 days, the Days of Awe, proclaiming to one another “may your name be found in the book”...This COULD correspond to the coming Tribulation that leads up to the next Feast in God's plan.

-Day of Atonement (At-One-ment) with God...could coincided with the return of Jesus second coming and putting down all rebellion on this earth and setting up His Millennial Kingdom for a 1000 years.

-Feast of Tabernacles, or God dwelling with us in reigning with justice and with a rod of iron.

-And last is the Great White Throne Judgment, called the Last Great Day, or the judgment of all mankind who have failed to accept Jesus as Savior...this is the second resurrection and they are cast into the Lake of Fire where the Anti-Christ and False Prophet are.
For 2000 years or this Church Age (or the Age of Grace), people have been looking for the return of Jesus, even the apostles thought He would return in their lifetime. But here we are, and each generation has thought Jesus was coming for them in their lifetime, and they have been wrong. Why? They lacked ONE ingredient to start the countdown of the final week of Daniel's 70 week prophecy. That ingredient that started the countdown for the return of Jesus was the founding of Israel again, as a nation.
“Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, She gave birth to her children. “ (Isaiah 66:8)

But that is exactly what happened. In May, 1948, the one thing lacking in the return of Jesus Christ in prior generations was put into place. Israel became a nation again, after nearly 2000 years of desolation of the land, and the scattering of the people of Israel to the four winds. Israel was REBORN. Why do I say Israel is a sign that was lacking in past generations? Let us quote what Jesus said concerning the budding of the fig tree.

32 “Now learn a parable of the fig tree;(Israel, my explantion) When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” (Matthew 24:32-36)

Some say, how can we know that Jesus is close at hand for the coming for His Church? Note that Jesus said that this generation. MY GENERATION, of those born during or right after the forming of Israel as a nation will not pass away till all things be fulfilled. Let us review what a generation is, that Jesus spoke of.

“The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. “ (Psalms 90:10)

God has been shortening the lifespan of mankind down from nearly a 1000 years in Adam and Eve's time, to just 70-80 years in our modern time. Knowing that no man knows the exact day or hour, but we can know the season, as Jesus said, this generation will not pass till all things be fulfilled...what will be fulfilled? Jesus will be on this earth reigning and ruling for a 1000 years. All rebellion will be destroyed and the earth will be returned to the time of the Garden of Eden...
But let us observe one thing, if this generation born right after 1948 lives the outside of 80 years, that is 2028, which is 6 years from now.

(God can add or subtract time as He knows when the last Gentile has come in)

The next Feast day that Jesus, I believe will fulfill, on the exact days of its observance by Israel, and the Christian who understands their significance, is the Feast of Trumpets...some call the “Return of the King” and what Israel calls “No man knoweth the day or the hour”...coincidence? God is not about coincidences. Could Jesus come in the near future on a Feast of Trumpets? We watch and pray, and believe you me, I will have a trained ear listening for the sound of a trumpet this coming fall, and every fall there after till this Feast is fulfilled.

THE COMING TRIBULATION IS UPON US

But as I read rapture verses in your Bible, I am confident, and I am full of the Hope of Jesus Christ, that I'll not see one day of that coming Tribulation...oh, we will see tribulation in this life, but when I say the coming Tribulation, I'm talking about GOD”S WRATH. Many say they don't know when God's wrath will begin, but reading Revelation chp. 6, the 1st seal that Jesus opens unleashes the four horsemen of the apocalypse. The first rider on a white horse is none other than the Anti-Christ who is revealed holding a bow but no arrows, meaning he conquers by deceit and lies. As you read this chapter, the nations know who is bringing this calamity upon them, and they know they will not escape.

15. “And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16, And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17, For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? “ (Revelation 6:15-17)

Jesus is using men to enact His judgment, much as He used men to bring judgment to Israel by Babylon, and Assyria. Jesus is causing events to come to pass, as each seal is broken. He is in control of making the earth ready for its redemption, that He has already bought with His own blood on the cross of Calvary. And after chp. 6 of this apocalyptic book, Divine judgment is enacted that no man can misunderstand.

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.” Revelation 16:1)

Read the whole of the 16th Chapter of Revelation that shows mankind who are in rebellion will not repent and give God glory to their own destruction:

10 “And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.”(Revelation 16:10-11)

We Are Children of Light

So why am I full of Hope, and confidence that I will not see one day of this awful time? Because Jesus my Lord told Paul the Apostle, and John the Beloved a promise to each of them and to us:

4 “But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.”(1st Thessalonians 5:4-10)

And the glorified Jesus, the Son of God told John the Beloved Apostle when He appeared to him: and spoke of what we can hold onto with both hands and know that Jesus will NOT send His bride through the horrors of the wrath of God that will cover the whole earth.

10 “Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, "I also will keep thee "from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.” (Revelation 3:10-13)

I repeat here, as I often have done...in verse 10 of the above passage, the words “I also will keep thee from” is the Greek word, “EK”...or by definition, “being removed from the time and place of the event.” What event is Jesus speaking of to the Apostle John? The coming Tribulation is what the Son of God is referring to.

Note we are NOT appointed to God's wrath, and Jesus will keep us from the hour of temptation that shall try this whole earth. That is a promise from my Savior, and I pray your Savior.

So let's recap the nuggets that I am sharing with you. We are in the time of the end of days, the season of the return of Jesus Christ, in our generation since Israel was made a nation again.
We are bumping up to the end of a generation since Israel was made a nation 74 years ago..
The Tribulation starts when the saints of God are taken out “by force” and snatched away from this earth. When? At some future Feast of Trumpets, as No man Knoweth the day or the Hour. A term for this day. But He could come at any time, this would just be another Feast fulfilled, that I believe God is a God of order and He changes not.

We are not appointed to wrath, but receive salvation from our Lord, but the earth will be purged of all rebellion and destruction will cover the earth and the dwellers who inhabit its land.
Note as I have mentioned in past messages, that the Tribulation is designed by God for two things, and that is the redemption of Israel through much Tribulation, that is why it is called “Jacob's Trouble” and the nations who have rebelled against God will be destroyed who do not accept Jesus as Savior during this time, from witnessing from the 144,000 Jewish Evangelist, the Two Witnesses at the Temple, and the angel who flies overhead proclaiming the Gospel.

WILL YOU BE READY?

If Jesus would actually come this fall, would you be ready to receive the glorified body that He has planned for those who have accepted His free gift of grace and mercy through God our Father? Or would you be in darkness and not imagine that your world just got more dangerous than at any other time in history? Note I am not making any predictions of the day, but stating clearly and unequivocally, that Jesus return is close, right at the door. We don't know the exact day or hour, so its pointless to try and nail it down. BUT we know the season, and by all signs in the heavens, on the earth, and events of evil men and the forming right now of a One World Government just waiting for the green light to have a spokesman usher in the New World Order and the revealing of the Anti-Christ, (that God said I will not see), that the Holy Spirit will be taken out along with those He indwells, and then the wicked One will be revealed...but not before we are gone.

“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.(the Holy Spirit, my explanation)
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:” 2nd Thessalonians 2:7-8)

Will you still be here, and in total resignation of your fate of enduring the tribulation. Or will you be those who have no clue, and have pleasure in their unrighteousness? Don't be counted among these have little hope of being in heaven. Many will be saved during this time, yes, but also, many will die for the truth of God's salvation found in Jesus Christ. Many will be deluded with lies and false doctrines of devils, or many will just not care, as they think it's party time. Party is not what it will be, but hell on earth for all who inhabit the nations.

As for me, and those like me, who have found redemption through Jesus Christ our Lord, I will be at a feast in heaven, called the “marriage supper of the Lamb” and at the Bema Judgment Seat of Christ do receive rewards for salvation and works done in His Name...I will live for eternity in the glorious light of my God and do His will, whatever He has in store for those who love Him...

What about you?

Will you be with me, or will you be cast away into outer darkness where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth, and the worm dieth not or is consumed? I pray you will not let that happen but embrace these next verses and confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior..

8 “ But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
9 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.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:8-13, my emphasis)

And the three verses that brought a 10 year old boy, to the realization that he needed a Savior..ME...(verses that my uncle had me memorize,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,),,,,,,,,,

16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”(John 3:16-18)

Make Jesus the Lord of your life today, while the time is there for you to make that decision in freedom of conscience and not in Tribulation, if at all. Because friend and brother, we are close, as the pre-tribulation RAPTURE IS REAL.

This is pastor Mike Taylor, praying you will receive Jesus right now, and have confidence in the coming rapture...if you need prayer, counseling, or just a listening ear, contact me at pastormiketaylor@yahoo.com, God bless you all,

TILL WE MEET AT JESUS FEET

Seven-year Proposal and Prophetic Portent – Terry James - https://terryjamesprophecyline.com/2023/07/10/seven-year-proposal-and-prophetic-portent/

Things aren’t moving quickly enough to suit the globalists elite, the would-be masters of the earth. Their Agenda 21 and Agenda 30 and their Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) must be put on a fast track. That ambition is delineated briefly in the following declaration from within the globalist cabal:

Making the SDG Summit a turning point

The SDG Summit, in September 2023, must signal a genuine turning point. It must mobilize the political commitment and breakthroughs our world desperately needs. It must deliver a rescue plan for people and planet.

At the center of this rescue plan, Heads of State and Government must recommit to seven years of accelerated, sustained, and transformative action, both nationally and internationally, to deliver on the promise of the SDGs. Leaders can show their resolve by adopting an ambitious and forward-looking political declaration at the SDG Summit and presenting global and national commitments for SDG transformation.

Delivering change at the speed and scale required to achieve the SDGs by 2030 will demand that political leaders make bold decisions to match their ambitions. (“We Need 7 Years of Accelerated, Transformative Action to Achieve SDGs,” IISD SDG Knowledge Hub, https://www.un.org/en/desa/we-need-7-years-accelerated-transformative-action-achieve-sdgs , June 13, 2023)

It has been, the powers that be surmise with worry on their brow, eight years since the international community agreed to take bold and transformative steps to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

This lofty aim involves a plan of action to secure the rights and well-being of everyone on a healthy, thriving planet, according to the document expressing their concern that things have fallen behind their initial timeline.

The SDG brief documenting their near-panic states further:

Promises in peril

A recently released report by the secretary general on “progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals” draws on the latest data to sound the alarm for action. Of the roughly 140 targets with data, only about 12% are on track to be achieved by 2030; and some 30% have either seen no movement or progressed below the 2030 baseline.

Giving up on the SDG or extending the deadline is not an option. The world has been rocked by a series of interlocked crises…

Recommitting to the 2030 Agenda is the best roadmap out of these crises, but we are fast running out of time. (Ibid.)

What is generating the worry, thus the hurry?

I, personally, question whether someone at or near the top of the globalist, Ephesians 6:12 cabal is receiving from the principality above their pay grade a prompting to get the Agenda 30 SDG in order.

We are seven years from the date of Agenda 2030’s supposed implementation. The powers and principalities with the blueprint to get all this accomplished must, they are told, recommit to seven years of accelerated, sustained, and transformative action.

All of this “seven years” talk smacks of the instrument of pseudo peace that portends ominous things for inhabitants of the earth, as we know.

A man possessing solution to the crises will soon emerge. He will offer a plan of peace that the World Economic Forum leader-types will wholeheartedly embrace. Israel will, upon this false peacemaker’s appearance, sign on to the covenant of peace as foretold in Daniel 9: 26. It will be a covenant made with death and hell, according to God’s Word through the prophet Isaiah.

Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves.… And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. (Isaiah 28:15, 18)

There is coming out of the soon-to-be united Europe a leader who will go “forth conquering, and to conquer” (Revelation 6:2). “There was given unto him a mouth speaking great things” (Revelation 13:5).

This mightiest leader ever will come riding the white horse of peacemaker and will confirm the covenant with many for one week. Translation: This leader from a Europe united in a configuration equivalent to the Europe of the Roman Empire days—a revived Roman Empire, a neo-Roman order of sorts—will make, or confirm, a covenant treaty already constructed, to which Israel will be a major signatory.

The pact will be for seven years, one year equaling one day of the seven-day week indicated in the Scriptures. The “conquering” by the leader at this point is likely to be in the realm of diplomacy. Undoubtedly, he will offer brilliant initiatives, magnified in their allurement by a charismatic, personal charm that convinces Jew and Arab alike to trust him as a friend of all. As the guarantor of the peace not just for that region, but for a global peace upon which can be built a New World Order and a new age of prosperity, he will succeed where others have failed. His promises will be sweet to the ears of a world ravenous for such lies. And lies they will be.

Jesus said it will bring about the worst time of all human history (Matthew 24: 21).

With all the other signals manifesting at this time, the talk of a seven-year plan by the leaders who propose a New World Order is a most significant marker of where this generation is poised on God’s prophetic timeline.

Jesus, Himself, promised that His people—the Church—will be kept from those seven years of hell on earth Isaiah forewarned:

Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. (Revelation 3:10)

You don’t want to be on earth when those seven years of judgment and wrath fall on the God-rejecting people. Accepting Jesus Christ is the only way to be removed to the safety Christ offers.

Every signal is pulsing in the spirit of those observing the prophetic times; Jesus is about to call all believers to Himself in that glorious moment of Rapture!

Here is how to make sure you are in God’s family for eternity, so you will not go earth’s most horrific time:

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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9–10)

The Blessed Hope: The Scoffers Are Gaining Too Much Territory and Too Many Followers – By Jan Markell - https://harbingersdaily.com/the-blessed-hope-the-scoffers-are-gaining-too-much-territory-and-too-many-followers/

I am revisiting an article I wrote in 2018 which is even more pertinent today. I asked back then, haven’t we waited long enough for Christ’s return? Five years later, I am still weary of this groaning planet, of the sick antics of today’s Left, of watching disturbing events from around the world, and of scoffers who mock my beliefs as though I’m an outdated Neanderthal.

So, I’m bringing back some of those musings because they’re more intense here in mid-2023.

How Much Longer?

The malady goes by many names: End-time weariness; Rapture fatigue; Rapture-watch burn-out. The scoffers and skeptics are gaining too much territory and too many followers. The fact that the King is coming is boring and just old news.

What Hal Lindsey wrote in 1969 in his classic “The Late-Great Planet Earth”, in the eyes of many, did not come to pass. Thus, there is a collective so-what sigh. The pulpits marginalize or ignore this glorious good news. How much longer can I look up with expectation?

Late-Great Burn-Out?

Recently, I read a revealing article in The Guardian that further mocks those with an end-time view and reinforces the growing skepticism. This article suggests:

Authors like Tim LaHaye and Hal Lindsey prophesied a lot of things that have not come to pass. Haven’t you Rapture-watchers waited long enough? Perhaps it’s time to move on from this message. (Never mind that a ton of things they predicted HAVE come to pass.)
Larry Norman told us in his 1970s song, “I Wish We’d All Been Ready,” that life was filled with guns and war and everyone gets trampled on the floor, but a generation later, that’s still happening. It’s far worse today. A generation later, the world is groaning even more! We’ve waited long enough and it’s time to change the channel.
Hal Lindsey told us that 1988 was a key year as that was 40 years since Israel’s re-birth. He never said he was targeting that year for the Rapture, but he encouraged us to anticipate His soon return surrounding that 1988 date. We’re still anticipating 25 years later, but alas, no trumpet or shout to date!

These just three talking points of The Guardian article.

To be frank, there is now a “we’ve been through this all before” mindset rather than apocalyptic anticipation. Words of warning are falling on deaf ears. I now see way too much end-time weariness and left behind indifference. The article in The Guardian suggests all this and more but the Bible tells us to expect this (II Peter 3:4).

The Bashers and Scoffers

Then came the bashers who are respected in some circles—just not mine. Hank Hanegraaff said there was no Rapture to be found in the Bible. Who knew? Well, he’s no Bible Answer Man to me but at one time, he had a sizable audience whom he greatly influenced. In 2017 he called me out on air as one of the biggest troublemakers in evangelical leadership and said that I engage in “script-torture”. Maybe I should be honored.

What’s in the water Frankie Schaeffer is drinking? When he, like Hanegraaf, joined the Eastern Orthodox Church, he went sideways. He now goes into tirades on MSNBC against what his parents — Francis and Edith Schaeffer — might have believed about the end-times. He has tried to shame anyone who would embrace “left behind” theology, as he calls it.

Frankly, the line-up of bashers and scoffers is so long I need a book to document them properly, so I am not dwelling on them. Rick Warren calling eschatology “a distraction” did not help. Legions on the religious left including Brian McLaren, Tony Campolo, Rob Bell, and more–have denigrated this glorious good news for two decades. Social justice is a far greater interest to them.

Déjà vu All Over Again

Stunning events are breaking daily. We are on the cusp of digital money. Russia, who is likely Gog from the land of Magog, is stirring and roaring. Mark of the Beast technology is staring us in the face. The spirit of the Antichrist is manifesting globally. And yet many suggest this is just déjà vu all over again! You have talked about such things for decades. We’re weary of your warnings!

So, the fact that things are all coming together excites only a tiny remnant who will never grow weary of keeping their eyes on the sky! If you are among them, hang in there. He is coming soon. As things continue to deteriorate, we may be left with only one hope—the blessed hope.

It’s better to sound the warnings than have multitudes come to us and ask us, “Why didn’t you warn us of all of this and of all of the things to come?”

The Globalists Are Making Really Big Moves Which Would Fundamentally Change How Our Society Operates - by Michael Snyder - http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/the-globalists-are-making-really-big-moves-which-would-fundamentally-change-how-our-society-operates/

While everybody else is distracted, the globalists are making absolutely enormous moves. Previously, I have written about the UN’s new worldwide system for cracking down on “misinformation” and about their desire to implement a global system of digital identification that is tied to our bank accounts. I realize that these things sound really wild, but they aren’t being done in secret. In fact, the globalists are very proud of what they are doing. But only a small percentage of the population is even aware of this insidious agenda that they are pushing through, and so there is very little debate about it.

Ultimately, the globalists want to create a system that would literally give them total control of everything.

Sadly, I am not exaggerating one bit.

For example, the Bank for International Settlements has released a “blueprint” that calls for the creation of a “unified ledger” that would eventually record ownership of all assets on the entire planet. The following is an extended excerpt from that “blueprint” which comes directly from the official website of the BIS…

This chapter presents a blueprint for a future monetary system that harnesses the potential of tokenization to improve the old and enable the new. The key elements of the blueprint are CBDCs, tokenized deposits and other tokenized claims on financial and real assets. The blueprint envisages these elements being brought together in a new type of financial market infrastructure (FMI) – a “unified ledger“.4 The full benefits of tokenization could be harnessed in a unified ledger due to the settlement finality that comes from central bank money residing in the same venue as other claims. Leveraging trust in the central bank, a shared venue of this kind has great potential to enhance the monetary and financial system.

A unified ledger transforms the way that intermediaries interact to serve end users. Through programmability and the platform’s ability to bundle transactions (“composability”), a unified ledger allows sequences of financial transactions to be automated and seamlessly integrated. This reduces the need for manual interventions and reconciliations that arise from the traditional separation of messaging, clearing and settlement, thereby eliminating delays and uncertainty. The ledger also supports simultaneous and instantaneous settlement, reducing settlement times and credit risks. Settlement in central bank money ensures the singleness of money and payment finality.

Moreover, by having “everything in one place”, a unified ledger provides a setting in which a broader array of contingent actions can be automatically executed to overcome information and incentive problems. In this way, tokenisation could expand the universe of possible contracting outcomes. The unified ledger thus opens the way for entirely new types of economic arrangement that are impossible today due to incentive and informational frictions. The eventual transformation of the financial system will be limited only by the imagination and ingenuity of developers that build on the system, much as the ecosystem of smartphone apps has far exceeded the expectations of the platform builders themselves.

So who would be in control of this “unified ledger”?

Needless to say, it would be the globalists.

And as Mike Adams has pointed out, this would mean that “your ownership of assets can be revoked or altered at any time”…

This new plan describes an orwellian, globalist-run “unified ledger” that records the ownership of all assets (checking accounts, real estate, bonds, stocks, etc.) on a centralized exchange run by globalists. All assets will be “tokenized,” a process that the BIS describes as, “recording claims on financial or real assets that exist on a traditional ledger on a programmable platform.”

This unified ledger will feature “programmable” entries, meaning that your ownership of assets can be revoked or altered at any time, according to the social engineering desires of the globalists.

Ownership of all assets on the entire planet would be determined by their “unified ledger”, and so if you are a really bad boy or girl they could go in and simply transfer ownership of everything that is yours to someone else.

With just a few clicks, you would “own nothing” and would become a total outcast.

Of course this is just one element of the globalist agenda.

They also want to give the UN unprecedented emergency powers at the “Summit of the Future” in September 2024…

The powerful United Nations is now seeking to increase its influence worldwide by seizing global “emergency” powers, and President Joe Biden supports their proposal.

Interestingly, the U.N. proposal would begin September 2024, a mere two months before a highly anticipated general election in the U.S.

The global organization will host a “Summit of the Future” where associated nations will adopt a so-called “Pact for the Future.”

The Pact for the Future includes a provision which will create an “emergency platform” for the United Nations whenever a major “global shock” is deemed to have occurred.

So if there is another global pandemic, a world war, an economic collapse or some other sort of worldwide emergency, the United Nations would suddenly be telling everyone what to do…

The emergency platform would provide the international body with power over all nations in times of distress.

Such power, according to the U.N., is needed to “[e]nsure that all participating actors make commitments that can contribute meaningfully to the response and that they are held to account for delivery on those commitments.”

According to the U.N.’s policy proposal, the secretary-general could extend the emergency platform, if need be, despite its duration being set for a “finite period.” Such a decision would be made without the consent of any member nations.

Do you really want the UN to have that sort of power?

Unfortunately, Joe Biden and his minions fully support this proposal.

Biden has a long history of doing whatever the globalists want, and so this is probably why they are trying to rush this through before the next U.S. presidential election.

At this point, Biden is a shell of his former self. He has degenerated into a crazy old man that regularly shouts obscenities at random staff members…

President Joe Biden, behind closed doors, has a temper that sees him yelling at staff and shouting obscenities, a new report on Monday revealed.

In fact, his temper is so bad that some staff try to avoid meting alone with him or bring along a colleague to help defuse the situation, Axios reported.

With such a weak leader in the White House, the globalists see an opportunity to advance their agenda like never before.

And if they get their way, our entire society will be completely turned upside down.

Let me leave you with one more example. A globalist organization called the Arup Group that has close ties to the World Economic Forum is actually proposing a complete and total end to private car ownership…

On construction, cities need to change what types of buildings and infrastructure are built as well as what materials are used. On transport, private car ownership needs to end and the shared vehicles that replace it have to use less materials and be longer lasting. Urban residents will also need to adopt a largely plant-based diet, mostly replace flying with less energy-intensive forms of long-distance transport, change how clothes and textiles are consumed and keep electronics and household appliances for longer.

These people are insane, but they are going to keep pushing the envelope until someone stops them.

If you plan to object to what they are doing, you should take a stand while you still have the freedom to do so.

We are living during one of the most critical times in all of human history, and we need men and women of courage that are willing to speak the truth.

Because lies and deception are seemingly everywhere these days, and darkness is growing all around us at a pace that is absolutely staggering.

Daily Jot: The White House cocaine mule - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com

Cocaine was found in the highly secure and closely monitored West Wing of the White House. The White House invoked the Hatch Act to avoid answering whether the cocaine could belong to Hunter or Joe Biden. The Hatch Act primarily prohibits “employees from engaging in partisan political activity while on duty, in a federal facility or using federal property.” Later, White House Press Secretary Jean-Pierre responded to reporters asking the same question, “to ask that question is actually incredibly irresponsible. And I’ll just leave it there.” She said that neither the President nor family members were at the White House when the cocaine was found. It doesn’t matter when the Bidens were there, but if the cocaine is theirs.

Thursday, July 6, Deputy White House Press Secretary Andrew Bates was asked, “You know, former President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on social media. One of them was that the cocaine found in the White House had belonged to either the President or his son. Are you willing to say that that’s not the case, that they don’t belong to them?” Bates responded: “I don’t have a response to that because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act.” He then pivoted to talking about how the Trump campaign must be facing increasing frustration because of Trump’s record of failures against the middle class where Biden has succeeded. Bates couldn’t answer whether the cocaine was Biden’s because of the Hatch Act that prohibits partisan politics, but he can bash the Trump campaign. Either way, he dodged the question.

While a public embarrassment, the incident has prompted the House Oversight and Accountability Committee to investigate. Chairman James Comer (R-KY) sent a letter to US Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle demanding a briefing on the matter. Comer wrote: “This alarming development requires the Committee to assess White House security practices and determine whose failures led to an evacuation of the building and finding of the illegal substance. The Committee requests the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) provide additional information. The presence of illegal drugs in the White House is unacceptable and a shameful moment in the White House’s history.

“According to a senior law-enforcement official, the cocaine was found in a storage facility that is “routinely used by White House staff and guests to store cell phones.” According to reports, USSS agents discovered a suspicious white powder inside the White House, prompting an evacuation of White House staff and personnel. The substance has since been confirmed to be cocaine. This incident has raised additional concerns with the Committee regarding the level of security maintained at the White House.” Indeed, the real issue is whether Biden or members of his staff are using drugs, which truly affects national security. Certainly, everyone is scrambling to divert attention away from it. As Christ said in Matthew 24:4, “Take heed that no man deceive you.” With all the cameras and visitor logs, we should know by now who’s the mule.

Daily Devotion: On His Mind - by Greg Laurie – www.harvest.org

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered!

—Psalm 139:17

https://harvest.org/resources/devotion/on-his-mind/ - Listen

Little children always seem to want their parents’ attention. They’ll throw a ball or get on a bicycle and call out, “Mom, watch me!” or “Hey, Dad, watch this!” It warms their hearts to know their parents are paying attention to them.

In a sense, that is how we should feel about our Father in Heaven. We should be encouraged by the fact that God is paying attention to us. David wrote, “How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand!” (Psalm 139:17–18 NLT).

If you were to go to the beach and try to count all the grains of sand, it would be a tedious process. David compared counting grains of sand to counting the number of times God thinks about us—it’s more than we can imagine!

God said, “See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands” (Isaiah 49:16 NLT). Even if your family lets you down, even if your friends let you down, know this: God is thinking of you. He is aware of you. He is pulling for you.

Jesus said, “Your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask him!” (Matthew 6:8 NLT). God is aware of everything you’re facing in life. He knows about your fears and your dreams. He knows everything about you.

If the thought that God is watching you and thinking about you brings joy to your heart, then that would tell me your life is probably right with God.

But if the thought that God is watching you, listening to you, and thinking about you terrifies you or gives you cause for great concern, then it might indicate your life is not where it ought to be spiritually.

Is the knowledge that God is thinking about you and aware of everything you do a source of dread and fear? Or, is it a source of comfort and delight?

The Battle Over Disclosure

Folks, something seismic is quietly brewing under the surface of our nation’s capital that is more akin to a tsunami than a riptide. However you want to look at it, it’s going to be an interesting next couple of years (Lord willing) as we watch this all unfold. If I can put it in the simplest of terms, it's what happens when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object.

The 2024 Intelligence Authorization Act (IAA) co-sponsored by senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) seeks, among other things, to strip the veil off of the secrecy surrounding the covert Special Access Programs (both acknowledged and unacknowledged) that are routinely used to hide highly classified programs, such as reverse engineering alien technology (e.g., alien propulsion systems) and other exotic extraterrestrial material. Essentially, congressional funding is tied to routine disclosure of said programs to the Pentagon’s new All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) led by Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick.

“AARO provides the opportunity to integrate and resolve threats and hazards to the U.S., while also offering increased transparency to the American people and reducing the stigma around this issue of high public interest,” wrote the senators. “AARO’s success will depend on robust funding for its activities and cooperation between the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. As such, we respectfully request your assistance in securing the necessary funding and organizational support for AARO’s success and longevity.”

The passage of this bill (should it pass, and it looks like it will), has the power to shift the balance of power from the clandestine US intelligence agencies (along with their corporate acolytes of Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, etc.) to that of the Department of Defense’s newly created Space Force by mandating disclosure of the highly classified and often covert Special Access Programs. In other words, if the CIA, NRO, and other intelligence agencies and their corporate counterparts do not disclose what they are working on to AARO’s Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, they will not receive funding. According to this article in Defensescoop.com,

The proposed legislative language included in the annual authorization bill comes just after reports from a former Pentagon official-turned-whistleblower emerged, alleging that the U.S. had or has what could be spacecraft of non-human origin in its UAP research arsenal. So far, lawmakers have not responded to those claims, which also have not been proven with official records or evidence to date.

But in the latest version of the IAA introduced in the Senate last week, lawmakers incorporated a mandate for any person currently or formerly under contract with the federal government that “has in their possession material or information provided by or derived from the” government relating to UAP — “that formerly or currently is protected by any form of special access or restricted access” — to notify Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon’s new All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), within 60 days of the bill’s enactment.

No later than 180 days after the IAA’s passage, the officials would also need to make “all such material and information” and “a comprehensive list of all non-earth origin or exotic [UAP] material” available to AARO for “assessment, analysis, and inspection.”

With the recent incendiary disclosure by Defense intelligence whistleblower, David Charles Grusch, who has alleged that the Intelligence Community is hiding classified evidence of “intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin,” this shocking revelation all but demands better oversight of what exactly the Intelligence agencies are doing with said technology. Despite other claimed whistle-blowers like Bob Lazar whose credentials may or may not hold up to scrutiny, the same article goes on to highlight Grusch’s credentials and trustworthiness as a federal whistleblower who has dutifully made use of the well-established, legally protected whistleblower process.

While a previous UFO expert in the government might have been discredited, Grusch has bona fides that are worth taking seriously. Grusch is a 36-year-old combat veteran of Afghanistan who was a member of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, the program run by the Office of Naval Intelligence to investigate UFO sightings. From 2019 to 2021, he served on the task force as the representative of the National Reconnaissance Office, considered one of the big five of the U.S. intelligence agencies. His colleagues think highly of him, too. Karl Nell, a retired Army colonel who was also on the UFO task force, told the Debrief that Grusch was “beyond reproach.” Nell even backed up one of Grusch’s claims in the complaint: that there is an ongoing competition with other countries to “identify [UFO] crashes/landings and retrieve the material for exploitation/reverse engineering.”

“His assertion concerning the existence of a terrestrial arms race occurring sub-rosa over the past eighty years focused on reverse engineering technologies of unknown origin is fundamentally correct,” Nell told the Debrief. “As is the indisputable realization that at least some of these technologies of unknown origin derive from non-human intelligence.” Another intelligence official investigating UFOs, Jonathan Grey, concurred. “The non-human intelligence phenomenon is real. We are not alone,” he said. “This is a global phenomenon, and yet a global solution continues to elude us.”

An unclassified version of the complaint shared with the Debrief states that the evidence of extraterrestrial tech was illegally withheld from congressional oversight by the Intelligence Community in order to “purposely and intentionally thwart legitimate Congressional oversight of the UAP Program.”

Space Force

Back in 2019, President Trump created a new branch of the military called “Space Force.” The official reason he did this was for the following reason: "Space is the world's newest warfighting domain," Trump said at Andrews. "Amid grave threats to our national security, American superiority in space is absolutely vital. We're leading, but we're not leading by enough, and very shortly, we'll be leading by a lot."

At the time, Trump was mocked incessantly by Hollywood and pretty much everyone else for doing this. However ridiculous it seemed at the time, this move is not without precedence. In 1947, the Army Air Force was separated into two separate branches. Thus, separating the Air Force from the Space Force seeks to further delineate the challenges as the borders of our military capabilities continue to expand off-world.

At present, the Space Force will share the same relational position with the Air Force that the Marine Corps has with the Department of the Navy. Like the Marine Corps, the Space Force will share equal representation at the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) level. The focus will be on protecting US assets in and around Earth and focusing specifically on outer space as a domain (i.e., land, sea, cyber, and air). The ARRO office, therefore, seems to have been established as both the DoD's and Congress's means of establishing oversight for what is increasingly appearing in our skies and challenging our world's leaders' understanding of the nature of reality and non-human activity around our planet.

I'm just speculating here, but there could be another reason why President Trump created the Space Force. Could Trump be following in JFK's footsteps? By approving its creation, was he either intentionally, or inadvertently throwing a grenade into the deep state's stranglehold over their most secretive and prized possessions? It could be argued that with the creation of the Space Force (and the joint warfighting function of Space Command), he was laying the foundation for what would become the inevitable and increasing demand for oversight over rogue intelligence agencies. Stands to reason that a Space Force would ultimately become the agency responsible for dealing with UFOs since that is their "domain" and by so doing, would force Congress to strip the covert protections and black budgets the intelligence community has enjoyed since the 1940s.

If we were to go back to the morning of September 10, 2001, the newly appointed Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld held a press conference in which he made a mind-boggling announcement (at the 7:57-7:59 min mark) by saying that the DoD had lost track of 2.3 trillion dollars. Of course, we all remember what happened the very next day, and that admittance, as stunning as it was, was lost in the emerging crisis of 9/11 for years to come. Not to sound conspiratorial, but we must note that the one plane which struck the Pentagon, just so happened to crash into one of the more particular parts of the five-sided building. From the Post Gazette, dated Sunday, December 16, 2001:

One Army office in the Pentagon lost 34 of its 65 employees in the attack. Most of those killed in the office, called Resource Services Washington, were civilian accountants, bookkeepers, and budget analysts. They were at their desks when American Airlines Flight 77 struck the building.

(https://old.post-gazette.com/headlines/20011216pentagonp4.asp )

It's been long understood and even tolerated that both the DoD and the Intelligence communities seem to operate with both legal (taxpayer-funded) and illegal (self-funded) operations. While the former is haggled and squabbled over amongst the numerous government agencies like pigs at the trough, it seems the Intelligence world does so only to preserve the covert nature of their black budget operations (i.e., organized crime shakedowns, drug trade, pump & dump economics, and other illicit activities). What seems to be their most prized resource, is their reverse engineering of alien technology.

What I've stated before I will state again, don't look at what they're showing you. Look at what they're not showing. Take the fabled Area 51 (Groom Lake, Nevada) for example. They will hide that ultra-secretive military base behind the façade of necessary classified flight testing operations for surveillance aircraft like the A-12, U-2 spyplane, SR71 Blackbird, and F-117 Knighthawk but even that may be the smoke screen for what they are really hiding.

Alien tech.

Sounds crazy I know.

But as crazy as actual military footage of aircraft breaking the laws of physics?

Project Blue Beam

For those not familiar with the topic, Project Blue Beam is a modern secular theory that NASA and the United Nations would, through advanced technology, create a fake Second Coming of Christ. This subject was first proposed as a fictional storyline in the 1970s by author Gene Roddenberry (of Star Trek fame). However, it is most popularly associated with Canadian investigative journalist Serge Monast (who mysteriously died at the age of 51) as Project Blue Beam. According to Monast, Project Blue Beam would accomplish three things:

To abolish all religions and replace them with a one-world new-age religion based on the “cult of man”.
Abolish all national identities to create a “one-world” movement.
To remove the notion of “family” and force everyone to work for a new one-world Government.

As ridiculous and far-fetched as Project Blue Beam seems to the mainstream press and secular governments, the question we must ask is, is it really? I think we would all agree that George Orwell's 1984 seemed equally ridiculous and far-fetched until we actually started living in it in the post-9/11 era. As the quote I am fond of using so aptly states, things often go from impossible to inevitable, without ever going through improbable. Furthermore, Gene Roddenberry (an atheist) did not come up with this idea of a fake Second Coming of Christ out of thin air. Jesus Himself was the first to discuss this of false messiahs coming.

And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many ...“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. Matt. 24:4-5, 24-25

If you go on to the internet and do a search for Project Blue Beam, you will note two prominent themes that lend credence to the idea that satan doesn't want people to believe it. The first is the ad hominem attacks on Monast as some wild-eyed conspiracy theorist. Secondly, Project Blue Beam is being gratuitously labeled as a "conspiracy theory." Remember, the enemy always attacks those things it most desperately seeks to discredit.

However, it is interesting to me how closely PBB resembles what the bible says will actually happen in the last days with regard to the strong delusion and the coming global totalitarian kingdom of the antichrist in Revelation 13. It appears our great enemy satan is using UFOs, aliens, and other mysteries as a smoke screen to desensitize the masses for the day of Christ to appear as some kind of mass abduction event.

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thess. 2:9-12

Conclusion

At the geopolitical level, there appears to be a civil war of sorts brewing under the surface over the issue of disclosure. On one hand, you have the Department of Defense openly advocating for disclosure so they can go forth and expand into this new domain with the newly minted Space Force. New domains mean more money, new technologies, more power, and further military expansion to off-world missions. For them, it is the opportunity to ensure American dominance and relevance in the new era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the Internet of Things, Quantum technologies, off-world exploration, and Artificial Intelligence by means of alien technologies.

On the other, clandestine intelligence agencies like their secret technology because it a) gives them incredible leverage, and b) allows them to continue executing and funding their black budget projects unimpeded by things like rules, processes, and oversight (imagine drug smuggling in an antigravity vehicle). Furthermore, they understand all too well that we (Americans) are not alone. Other nations' intelligence agencies around the world are actively pursuing the same things.

So what does this mean for Christians in the last days?

It is increasingly clear to me (and perhaps you) that this issue of forced disclosure of non-human technologies and entities, as well as the creation of the Space Force seems to be coming to a head at exactly the same time as the world is being pressed into a new world order (i.e., the Great Reset). Now that might seem like a highly charged conspiratorial statement, but what else can we call the globalist initiatives that seem determined to reset American geopolitical dominance? If you take these agendas in their own words and boil them down to their most basic element, they all seek to fundamentally transform the world we live in today.

The world we live in today is largely dominated by a 20th-century American-led, US dollar-based, global economy. The world they want to take us to in the next seven years (via these varied initiatives and agendas) is that of a multipolar world (no nation dominates another), imperial (globally taxed), regionalized (minimizing nationalism), confederacy (military, economic coalitions) operating under a singular digital universal basic income surveillance currency managed by a small, powerful group of elites (i.e., an oligarchy).

In other words, the world of today is racing toward the world of Revelation 13 with increasing speed and intensity.

So how will the UN, WEF, and other globalist-minded entities transform the world of today into that of the Great Reset? They will do what they've always done which is to crisis to solidify their control over the nations of the world.

So what is this coming great crisis?

To the believer, it will be the Rapture of the Church.

To the world, it will be the arrival of extraterrestrial visitors.

Sidebar: among the primary purposes of the mark of the beast (buying, selling, inclusion, worship, loyalty, etc.) the mark may also be promoted as being done for "your protection" to keep you from getting snatched off the earth.

While this part is not being said out loud at present by the mainstream press and politicians, UFO Disclosure seems closely tied to this coming global change as "the cause." Their arrival, at precisely the same time just after the Rapture of the Church will be the catalyst that will lead into the strong delusion. The foundation for this strong delusion may be rooted in the idea that man has to unite against some outside threat. When mankind unites (just like at Babel), they are willing to set everything aside and succumb to one system. President Reagan prophetically noted in a speech he gave at the United Nations back in 1987 by saying-

“Perhaps we need some outside universal threat to make us recognize this common bond. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.” (Source)

It's interesting to me that in this day and age when the skies and heavens are being filled with all sorts of mysteries and intrigues, is the same domain in which Jesus tells us to be watching. For example, if Jesus had said that one day He would return out of the ground or would rise out of the sea, I'm certain that either of those physical domains would now be the contested hotbed for which a burgeoning alien crisis would arise from. Instead, Jesus says...

“And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Luke 21:25-26 (my emphasis)

In scripture, Jesus gives us the direction we should be paying attention towards...ie., skywards, and we are to look up and keep our gaze heavenwards. This same direction is now being littered with these alien spacecraft and all manner of optical illusions and threats. So what does this mean for the believers faithfully watching for our Lord? It means, given the frenzied increase in non-human activity in our skies, and the world racing toward a global government, we are not long for this world.

Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Luke 21:28 (my emphasis)

Even so, Maranatha!
