THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW THIS.

There are three massive problems we face in the world today, any one of these could explode within minutes into World War three.

First I shall deal with Israel. Because of the war with Hamas, it is currently the topic of much discussion, and I have much information to share with you on this situation.

Quoted from The Quran Chapter 7.

07 Al-A’raf   (The Heights)

137. And We made the people who were considered weak to inherit the eastern parts of the land and the western parts thereof which We have blessed. And the fair Word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because of their endurance. And We destroyed completely all the great works and buildings which Fir’aun (Pharaoh) and his people erected. 138. And We brought the Children of Israel (with safety) across the sea, and they came upon a people devoted to some of their idols (in worship).   —  (The land of Canaan where idols were worshiped was what was given to The Children of Israel.  These are my comments to clarify exactly what land was being referred to in this passage)

Khan, Dr Muhammad Muhsin. English Translation of the Qur’an    (p. 159-160). Kindle Edition.

Quoted from The Quran Chapter 17.

17 Al-Isra’  (The Night Journey)

103. So he resolved to turn them out of the land (of Egypt). But We drowned him and all who were with him.  104. And We said to the Children of Israel after him: “Dwell in the land, then, when the final and the last promise comes near [i.e. the Day of Resurrection or the descent of Christ [‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) on the earth]. We shall bring you altogether as mixed crowd (gathered out of various nations).

Khan, Dr Muhammad Muhsin. English Translation of the Qur’an (p. 285 – 286). Kindle Edition.

See article  www.quora.com/Does-the-Quran-say-that-the-land-of-Israel-is-for-the-Jews    Muslim scholars say the land of Israel belongs to Israel.

Jihad passages such as this one below, are NOT found in the Quran.

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. “O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.”

Sahih al-Bukhari 2926    Book 56, Hadith 139.   People like this are calling Allah a liar to achieve their own goals in life to get rich. 

Most of the billions of dollars they receive, goes into their own pockets or in preparing to make war on their enemies.  The citizens of their countries receive barely enough to survive on.

So according to the Quran, Allah’s promises to Israel are still valid.

It was also recorded thousands of years ago in “The Torah,” that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, – Adonai (The Lord), often referred to today as Hashem (The Name) the God of Creation, gave to “The Children of Israel”  the land, which was known at that time as Canaan, the land of idol worshipers.

Those of us who are genuinely committed Christians, (Followers of Jesus Christ), also believe in the promise given by God to Abraham and later to Moses, that after four hundred years in Egypt, that He would help them destroy the idol worshipers of Canaan, and give their land to “The Children of Israel.”

This can mean only one thing; every person on earth,  whether they claim to be Muslim, Jew, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Atheist etc., who says that Israel belongs to the Palestinians is calling  Allah – and the God of Israel, and the God of the Christians, liars as they are ALL agreed that the land of Israel belongs to The Children of Israel, and NOT to the Palestinians.

Now I cannot speak for other people, but I would never follow or worship any god who is a liar and cannot therefore be trusted.

Amos 1:6-8  “This is what the LORD says: “For three sins of Gaza, even for four, I will not relent. Because she took captive whole communities and sold them to Edom,  (7)  I will send fire on the walls of Gaza that will consume her fortresses.  (8)  And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn mine hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord GOD.” 

The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has already severely punished Gaza once, hundreds of years ago. 

Isaiah 63:4  “For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.” 

Today God says in  “Romans 12:19  “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” 

These verses are happening today in 2023!

Palestinian civilian casualties of Operation Swords of Iron are the predictable and indeed intended result of Hamas’s perfidy.

“The Global Elites”

The second biggest problem in the world today, are those whose goal is to rule over the entire world, by using their wealth and power to achieve their ambitions, even using nuclear war if necessary to achieve their goals if they are being thwarted by the opposition.

The goal began years ago. — 1.  Depopulate the planet until we get down to 500,000,000.   This was incorporated into the UN Agenda 2020, and in UN Agenda 2030.  — More on this a little later.

17 Sustainable Development Goals: United Nations

Recently these documents were fancied up so they could sell them to the public as something everyone would benefit from and think it was a great idea. They even added another seven items to their original list of ten, to make it sound so cool you will love to be part of this Agenda.

What they do NOT tell you, is that you have already been chosen to be  one of the those already categorised as expendable.   There is no way that people below multi-millionaire, or billionaire status can possibly pass all 17 of their requirements for survival.

This depopulation of the planet was activated years ago in third world countries, allegedly, by Bill and Melinda Gates, using vaccines given to children which had a drug added into the vaccine causing children to be sterile.

https://www.westernstandard.news/international/son-of-wef-co-founder-calls-for-klaus-schwabs-arrest/49825

The son of a WEF co-founder is calling for the arrests of Bill Gates, WHO leadership, the WEF, Klaus Schwab, Big Tech, and Pfizer.

Everything evil in the world related to democide, unfortunately, comes from Geneva.”  ——  Najadi listed the World Health Organization (WHO), GAVI (the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization) and the World Economic Forum (WEF) as guilty Geneva-based organizations. Najadi’s father Pascal Najadi co-founded the WEF in 1971, but, as the younger Najadi explained, “left Klaus Schwab out of disgust in the early 80’s.”

“Why? The WEF, the WHO, GAVI, Big Pharma, big tech, Bill Gates, all advocated a global humanity injection by a bioweapon, injecting nanolipids into 5.7 billion people. And we Swiss are hosting them? That’s terrible.”

“We cannot tolerate any entity that promotes poison to be injected into humanity. But you’ve done it. I’m the victim and I’m dying from it. And my mother, too. It’s a democide. And you’ll be judged.“

The WEF, the WHO, GAVI, Big Pharma, big tech, Bill Gates, are fighting as hard as they can in the United Nations to give the World Health Organisation the power to be able to take over the planets health systems, using military force if necessary.

The second big lie coming out of the World Economic Forum, is that we will soon all live forever because of advances in trans-humanism.

They say that already they can create most human body parts now on 3D printers, and with the rapid advances being made in AI technology, that in a few years they will create whatever they want to, at will.

What they don’t tell you is that they will never be able to create a human  soul or a human spirit.   What is the point of living if you have no soul or spirit.  Of course being atheists, their answer to that is that we don’t have a soul or spirit now anyway.

The last of the three problems I want to look at today is the greed, the evil, the wickedness, and the sexual perversion in men’s hearts, which is driving vast numbers of people into the fires of hell each day.

It is this greed, evil, wickedness and sexual perversion which is clearly driving both the first and second problems which we have already discussed in this article.

I believe that greed and the evil in men’s  hearts will be the cause of the next nuclear war, and we can see it taking shape today in  China’s greed to take over Taiwan, because of the wealth, the technological equipment and expertise it would give them.

We can see it in Russia, as they look at the immense quantities of gas and oil that Israel is now able to export to Europe.  

China and Russia are at present the two most likely to start a war which would rapidly escalate and go nuclear, as each country involved would call on their friends for help.

There are other countries like the Muslim country of Azerbaijan who are driving out and killing many of the Christian Armenians, over the disputed area of Nagorno-Karabakh.

In the past Russia has helped their Christian friends in Armenia, while Turkey has aided their Muslim friends in Azerbaijan.

The world is in chaos and turmoil today, just as Jesus fore told in Luke 21:25  “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.” 

Luke 21:26  “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.”

The wonderful thing for those who are “Born Again Christians” is that we shall not be here when the wars go nuclear.  

1 Thessalonians 5:9  “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Revelation 3:10  “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.“  (Inferring we will not be on the earth.”

This is not a time to be afraid if you are a “Born Again Christians” who is watching and waiting eagerly for the Rapture (evacuation) of Jesus Bride, it is a time to be excited, and watching eagerly every day for His return.

Luke 21:36  “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.”

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

All comments are welcome, and if you see anything in this article you believe is incorrect, please put in the the comments section below, along with your references, I will be happy to check it out and reply to your comment. If necessary I shall also make the appropriate changes in the article. Thank you.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL!

Before I start on any of the other items which I am going to speak on during this article, let me remind you that Jesus can come back at any moment in time. He could even come back before I finish writing this article, so you may never receive it.

The most important thing that we can do now, is to make sure that our relationship with the Lord is in good shape and that we are ready at any moment to be snatched off this earth and taken to be with Jesus in his father’s home in heaven.

In times like we are currently living in, there are many things which clamour for our attention; things like the current Israel / Gaza war, things like the collapsing of many of the world’s nations economies, things like the food shortages which are becoming worse every day around the world, and many others like this are important, but not as important as what is in God’s word.

There is nothing new in any of this. Jesus warned us long ago that these things were going to happen at the end of this age which is called the church age or the age of grace; in fact Jesus gave us a timeline as to when these things would commence and as to when they would be finalised.

All the things that Jesus warned us were going to take place during this timeline, which can be found in Matthew’s gospel chapter 24, in Luke’s gospel chapter 21, and in Mark’s gospel chapter 13, have either already been fulfilled or are currently in the final process of being fulfilled.

At the time of writing this article, no one can tell us whether this Israel / Gaza war will finish up being just a localised war, or whether it will spread wider throughout the Middle East, or possibly even finish up being World War 3.

The worldwide expenses caused by the Covid virus have left many nations in financial distress. This has been exacerbated by what used to be called climate change, but is in fact a change in the weather patterns around the world, causing many disasters, floods, wildfires, droughts, massive storms, and other extremely expensive and often fatal disasters caused by changing weather patterns around the world.

History has shown us many times that when nations go into recession or into a depression, they inevitably begin a war to try and get out of their problems, I believe this could happen soon.

We know from watching the news that the United States, China, the European Union, and many other countries, that they are either already in a recession, or they are heading rapidly toward either a recession or depression.

We also know that they are trying to hide the truth from the public by presenting the data in a typically convoluted way so the public cannot understand it, and all too often their own experts don’t fully understand it.

Nobody would deny that war looms large between The United States, the European Union and all their allies, and Russia, China, North Korea, and their other partners in this axis of evil.

But to come back to my first point, most people know that in cricket if you take your eye off the ball, you’re likely to get hit in the head with a fast bouncer, and in football games if you take your eye off the ball, it is quite likely that your opponent shall take the ball off you.

The most important thing for us today as Christians is to keep our eyes fastened on the Lord Jesus Christ, and to realise that although  all these things which are happening all around us are of great importance, they are nothing when compared to the need for us to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and on his word.

Most of the things which I have discussed here shall eventually come to pass, however I doubt they will happen this week, this month, or even before the end of this year.

Considering what the Bible teaches us, and of the words of Jesus himself, and the timeline which he gave, it is highly unlikely that Jesus will not return for the church, which is His bride, before the end of this year.

It appears from what the news is reporting each day (and that is only about one quarter of what is happening), that if things continue to accelerate, as is currently the case, the daily disasters which we are seeing shall become nonstop throughout the whole world before this year ends.

I believe that next to John 3:16  “God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life”, the second greatest event in history will be the evacuation (rapture)  of  all “True Believers” from this earth to heaven.

1 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.  

1 Corinthians  2:9  But as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,” nor has it entered into the heart of man, “the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

Watch all the things that are happening in the world currently, as they point to the fact that this world is preparing to receive Antichrist as their god. But more important than anything else we must keep our eyes firmly fixed upon Jesus and upon his calling us to be with himself, which shall happen a long time before Antichrist takes over the earth for a short period of time.

  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

LORD,  —- WHY NOT?

A few days ago, as I was sitting in my study feeling perplexed, unhappy, and terribly disappointed, the following words were running through my mind.

Lord, why didn’t the rapture take place during the “Feast of Trumpets”?   Lord, why didn’t the evacuation of your children from this sick world to our home in heaven occur during the “Year of Jubilee”?

I was thinking of the hours I had spent in studying God’s word to the Jews in the Old Testament, all His laws, all His promises, and wondering where I went wrong, what did I miss.

I remembered Jesus telling the people on the Mount of Olives, —    Matthew 5:17  “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy them but to fulfill them. 

I thought of all the sermons I had watched and listened to on YouTube by God’s Servants about God’s appointed times, (Moedim) for the feasts of the Lord.  The timing of the blood moons etc. and it all made sense and fitted in with the scriptures.

As I sat contemplating, something I had read, or been told at some time came back into my mind; we are now in the times of the gentiles.

Romans 11:25  For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery brethren, in case you should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 

At that point it all came flooding into my mind.  We are not in the age of law, which the Jews were in, we are in the church age, the age of God’s grace. 

The laws of the Feasts and of the Year of Jubilee do not apply in the year of God’s grace, because the Church has been given new laws by Jesus.  We cannot take the Jewish laws and apply them to the Church.           

John 13:34  A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. (35)  By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. 

Mat 5:44  But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. 

Mark 11:26  But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”

Perhaps the most important of all are the following two passages.

Luke 21:36  Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

For the past three months, I have concluded my internet articles with the following verse.  Matthew 25:13 “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return.

Let me conclude by saying, in the times of the gentiles, God does not work according to Old Testament Laws given to the Jews, but to the New Testament laws given by Jesus to the Church.

Galatians 5:18  But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 

God Bless.

PS. This just reinforces the fact that Jesus can come at any moment. The Church does not need to wait for a special Feast Day or Holy Day or sign from heaven. The church, the BRIDE of Jesus could vanish from the earth before I even get this posted. Are we ready?

  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

WILL JESUS EVACUATE HIS TRUE FOLLOWERS VERY SOON?

I am going to give you some bible verses which point to the fact that Jesus is about to evacuate his “True Believers” off planet earth, and into heaven where He has been preparing a place for us for TWO THOUSAND YEARS.

John 14:2  “In my Father’s house are many places to live. If there weren’t, I would have told you; because I am going there to prepare a place FOR YOU.  John 14:3   Since I am going and preparing a place for you, I will return to take you with me; so that WHERE I AM, YOU MAY BE ALSO”. 

There were many things which had to happen BEFORE Jesus could come back for us, they were there in the bible for us to read, BUT UNTIL THEY HAPPENED, we did not understand what they meant.  That is the reason why I, and many others were preaching 45 YEARS AGO, that Jesus could come at any time.

Daniel was told to SEAL UP THE BOOK until the “TIME OF THE END”    Daniel 12:4  “But you, Daniel, keep these words secret, and seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rush here and there as knowledge increases.”

Gradually, God revealed increasingly more of the things that had to happen before Jesus could come for “His Chosen Ones.”

The following verses confirm my belief that today we are living JUST DAYS from “The Evacuation.”

Heb 10:25  “Do not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encourage one another–and all the more AS YOU SEE the day approaching”.

The writer to the Hebrews makes it clear we shall SEE the day approaching.

You may be asking, “How can you see a day approaching?” Let’s say a circus is coming to your town for a week early next year, but the date has not yet been set.   Then on the tenth of January you see large trucks with animals in cages begin rolling into town.

You still don’t know what day the circus will open, but you can SEE the day is approaching.

1 Thessalonians 5:4  “But you, brothers and sisters, are NOT in darkness so that this day should surprise you LIKE A THIEF”.

The Apostle Paul tells us clearly that we WON’T know the exact day, but neither will we be UNAWARE of the fact that it is getting close.

These verses and the verses still to come assume one thing, that you are OBEYING one of the most important commands that Jesus has given us regarding His coming for His Bride.

Luke 21:36  “WATCH THEREFORE, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Revelation 3:3  “Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not WATCH, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you”.

Matthew 24:43  “But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have WATCHED and not allowed his house to be broken into”. 

There are many other verses which command us to watch and wait for the Lord’s return for His Bride. We shall look at some of these verses later, but for now we shall look at a very important part of God’s word which applies to us specifically today. 

Matthew 5:17  Jesus said,   “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them BUT TO FULFILL THEM”.

Leviticus 25:18  “Follow my decrees and BE CAREFUL TO OBEY MY LAWS, and you will live safely in the land”.  …..  What laws?

Leviticus 25:10  “Consecrate the FIFTIETH YEAR and proclaim LIBERTY throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be A JUBILEE for you; each of you is to return to your family property, and to your own clan”.  …  You can only proclaim liberty to people who are servants or slaves, not to people who are already freemen, and we who serve the Lord are His servants.

Romans 1:1  “Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God.” As we are Jesus servants, will He set us free to go to our Father’s home in heaven in this “Year of Jubilee”?

This year Israel is celebrating its JUBILEE YEAR.  This Jubilee year CONCLUDES on either the 16 or the 17 of September.  We must  remember that the “FEAST OF TRUMPETS”  is a TWO-DAY feast.

I believe, as do the Jews, that sometime during this Year of Jubilee, Jesus is going to fulfill this law also.  They expect their Messiah to present Himself during the “Feast of Trumpets”  —  Rosh Hashanah”

Remember it will be another 49 years before the next Year of Jubilee!

We all know that Jesus can come at ANY TIME, today, tomorrow next week etc. We know also that He can be late, as the parables show us; however, when even the children of this world are saying that Armageddon is just around the corner, ITS TIME TO GET OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD IN ORDER ASAP. 

The peoples of the world are WATCHING carefully, and waiting to see if World War three is about to break out.  Nor are they unaware of the evil, the corruption, and the sexual perversion which is being forced on the WHOLE WORLD by those in the WHO, and the UN.

The Revelation 13:17 trial run has been a much greater success than the NEW WORLD ORDER expected.  They expected a much greater rebellion against mandatory lock-downs than what happened.

Revelation 13:17  “so that they COULD NOT BUY OR SELL unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name”.

Here are a few more good reasons to be eagerly watching and waiting for the Lord’s return for His BRIDE.

2 Timothy 4:8  “Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have LOVED HIS APPEARING”.

Philippians  3:20   “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.”.

Romans 8:25  “But if we hope for what we do not see, we EAGERLY WAIT for it with perseverance”.

Hebrews 9:28  “so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who EAGERLY WAIT FOR HIM He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation”.

Can you see the day approaching, are you actively WATCHING for the day?   We who are God’s children are NOT in the dark about this day.

We must take care and remember that Noah’s brothers and sisters were NOT spared, only 8 people from the entire world population were spared.

Remember Lot also, his married daughters and son’s in law and their wives were NOT spared, and only 4 people from those cities escaped.  That is a tiny percentage of the total population. 

We must be a bride who is truly IN LOVE with her bridegroom if we really expect to be taken, as can be seen in the above scriptures.  Its time to make sure that we and our families are truly ready. Time is now our enemy when it come so getting people saved before the commencement of “The Great Tribulation”.

Matthew 25:13  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

DREX HAS ARRIVED.

Brazil has overnight announced the arrival of its CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCY, (CBDC) and has begun the test phase in the public square. Click on the URL for more on this subject. https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=6301

DREX, like the American’s  FEDNOW CBDC, is the platform, or base onto which the final product will be added. 

It will be in the final product of all the world CBDC’s currently being assessed, or almost ready to be tested,  (e.g. Australia) which get added to a united worldwide base, that the sting in the CBDC’s will be added.

If you did not read my previous article on SDG’s and how they will affect today’s population, I also had the following article about CBDC’s, read it again if you wish to refresh your mind on the danger of CBDC’s.

The following article by Britt Gillette is about the danger of CBDC’s which is how Antichrist will be able to rule the world, as seen in Revelation 13: 16-18. https://www.raptureready.com/2021/03/20/central-bank-digital-currencies-coming-enslavement-by-britt-gillette/

Australia’s incoming Reserve Bank Governor, Michelle Bullock on her appointment made note of the fact that corruption in big business, governments, and fraud, etc. was costing the country dearly, and she implied that she would be working on a better, faster, safer, more foolproof way of transacting financial services than we have at present.

To me it was clear she was referring to CBDC’s, and I got the impression it would be introduced to the public of Australia soon.  Many other governments are also racing to get CBDC’s up and running in their countries. The following URL shows which countries have made the most progress toward their CBDC’s so far in 2023.

https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/econographics/which-countries-have-made-the-most-progress-in-cbdcs-so-far-in-2023/

21 Mar 2023 — Australia, China, and India are just some countries that are piloting both use cases for their CBDC’s.

https://www.reuters.com/markets/currencies/study-shows-130-countries-exploring-central-bank-digital-currencies-2023-06-28/

28 June 2023 — Eleven countries, including a number in the Caribbean, and Nigeria, have already launched central bank digital currencies (CBDC’s) 

The return of Jesus to snatch His faithful church, His Bride, those who are watching and eagerly awaiting that moment in time, away from this planet to heaven, can happen at any moment. (Referred to by many as “The Rapture”).

Romans 8:23  Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. 

Philippians  3:20  For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ. 

What I am looking at here with the CBDC’s is more about when will the Great Tribulation begin.  As I mentioned this article is tied in with the previous article just below this titled, — “How will Sustainable Development Goals affect today’s population.” If you have not yet read that article I suggest you read it also.

The SDG’s are based on the Georgia Guidestones, of reducing the world population to five hundred million by 2030, and based on the Georgia Guidestones, they would have been better named “The Sustainable Depopulation Goals” as they are already in action, having been incorporated into the United Nations’ Agenda 2020 and Agenda 2030.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) are currently affecting the world population, and will continue to do so for the first half of “The Great Tribulation.” The effects, or results of these SDG’s can already be seen in the first part of Revelation chapter six verses one over eight.

Verse two, the white horse with a bow but no arrows, conquering the world through peaceful treaties.

Verse four, the red horse making war with his great sword.

Verses five and six, the black horse causing death through starvation.

Verse eight, the pale (green) horse, killing with sword, hunger, and wild beasts over a quarter part of the earth.

We can clearly see that all these things have already commenced. Peace treaties are being made, wars on all sides, and other wars threatened, starvation already beginning in most countries because of sudden disastrous changes in weather patterns, etc.

The CBDC’s will have three and a half years of “The Great Tribulation”  period to be fine-tuned, and readied for Antichrist to rule the world. By adding the final worldwide, integrated CBDC to the SDG’s already in use , we can see the result in ….

Revelation 13:15  He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 

Revelation 13:16  He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 

Revelation 13:17  and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 

Revelation 13:18  Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

The “He” referred to in verse fifteen, is the second beast, “The False Prophet”  See Revelation 13:11-14.

So what am I saying here is …..

  1. “The Rapture”, when Jesus snatches away His Bride can happen  at any moment, there is no reason why it cannot happen today.
  2. “The Great Tribulation”, could also start immediately, or very soon after the rapture has taken place. Until a few years ago I did not think “The Great Tribulation” was close enough, it seemed too many things needed to be in place first. 

Prophetically, the nations are all correctly aligned with defence pacts in place, for example,  Iran, Russia, and Turkey, until a few years ago, were all bitter enemies. The alliance between America, Australia and Japan, enemies not long ago, today allies. Israel and some of the Arab nations, enemies until two years ago, friends today, and the list goes on.

Israel is surrounded on every side by her enemies, as foretold. 

Israel is a powerful nation, as foretold.

Wars foretold by the prophets have either already begun, or could begin within twenty four hours.

The One World Government is already in place. See the URL. https://www.worldgovernmentsummit.org/events/world-government-summit-2023

The rich are oppressing the poor, the Global Elite have everything, from their private jets to their servants, from their banquets to whatever they desire, and God says to them,

Psalm 12:5  “Because the poor are being oppressed, because the needy are sighing, I will now arise,” says the LORD, “I will establish in safety, those who yearn for it.” 

The first Sustainable Development Goal is to bring the world population down to five hundred million by 2030, and maintain it at that level.

Currently they are way behind schedule, and the population is continuing to rise, which is why in their panic they have declared, “We Need 7 Years of Accelerated, Transformative Action to Achieve SDGs.”

My belief on the matter is that God has reserved this world for His judgement, and He will judge the world in righteousness.

Psalm 96:13. Let all creation rejoice before the LORD, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his faithfulness.

So if “The Great Tribulation” could begin tomorrow if necessary, we must ask ourselves, “Are we ready for The Rapture if it were to happen right now”?  …..  We must remember, that this is “The Year of Jubilee”, and as the saying goes, “If not now, when”?

The following comments are taken from my recent article “Jubilee Now”.

The seventh (Sabbath) day is holy; the seventh (Sabbath) year is also holy, (a Shmita year).   The  7 th (Shmita) or the 49 th year) is holy. 7 x 7 = 49. Last year (5782 in Israel), was a Shmita year and when divided by 49 = 118. 

This year of (5783 in Israel) being the FIFTIETH year is the Year of Jubilee, and it will continue until Rosh Hashana in mid-September of 2023.  I believe this coming month is the most likely time for Jesus to return for The Church – His Bride.

The fiftieth year, in Leviticus 25:8-13 assigned as The Year of Jubilee, will then become the first year of the next seven year Shmita cycle, to maintain the continuity of the seven year cycle intact.    

In the middle ages, famous rabbis such as Moses Maimonides, known better as Rambam, were adamant that Messiah would come in a Jubilee Year during the Feast of Trumpets, better known as Rosh Hashanah. I guess we will have to wait a little bit longer to see if they were right.     

Matthew 25:13  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

HOW WILL SDG’s AFFECT TODAY’S POPULATION?

The Sustainable Development Goals.

The world is being set up in every way for the rule of the Antichrist.

Where did these Sustainable Development Goals REALLY originate? 

The truth is they originated from the Ten Laws of the Georgia Guidestones.       https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones 

I have copied the first three below.  The others can be viewed at the URL immediately below them, in Wikipedia, by scrolling down to INSCRIPTIONS.  

1.    Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.

2.    Guide reproduction wisely – improving fitness and diversity.

3.    Unite humanity with a living new language.

This site gives the history of the Guidestones, and is very interesting!  The reality of the history of course, is that it was formulated decades before the Guidestones were erected by the Global Elites.

(SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.    https://www.undp.org/sustainable-development-goals   

UNDP is central to the United Nations Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG),  a network that spans 165 countries and unites the 40 UN funds, programmes, specialized agencies and other bodies working to advance the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Chaired by the Deputy Secretary-General and with UNDP Administrator as Vice-Chair, the UNSDG provides strategic direction and oversight to ensure UNDS entities deliver coherent, effective and efficient support to countries in their pursuit of sustainable development.

https://www.undp.org/about-us/faqs

The 10 Laws for survival for the few outlined on the Georgia Guidestones, were incorporated into the United Nations Agenda 2020 eight years ago,  

These SDG’s were also incorporated into the United Nations Agenda 2030, plus they added seven extras to make it sound as if the world is going to be so much better off if we follow this UN Agenda 2030.

Britt Gillette, author of End Times Bible Prophecy has a recent article titled :-  Will the Tribulation Begin in September? 

Britt’s article is linked directly to the United Nations recently released decision to speed up their SDG program, which is currently way behind schedule.

If you are able listen to his article for the first 18 minutes you will find it very interesting and enlightening.

The following is a summary of this U.N. article:- 

We Need 7 Years of Accelerated Transformative Action to Achieve SDG’s

13 June 2023 – Almost eight years have passed since the international community agreed to take bold and transformative steps to achieve the 2030 agenda for sustainable development, a plan of action to secure the rights and well-being of everyone on a healthy, thriving planet.  Today, at the halfway point to 2030, that promise is in peril and a fundamental shift is needed – in commitment, solidarity, financing, and action – to put the world on a better path.  And it is needed now.

…… 4.  It’s time to sound the alarm. At the mid-way point on our way to 2030, the SDGs are in deep trouble. A preliminary assessment of the roughly 140 targets with data show only about 12% are on track; close to half, though showing progress, are moderately or severely off track and some 30% have either seen no movement or regressed below the 2015 baseline.

……6.If ever there was an illumination of the short sightedness of our prevailing economic and political systems, it is the ratcheting up of the war on nature. A small window of opportunity is fast closing to limit global temperatures to 1.5 degrees and prevent the worst impacts of the climate crisis and secure climate justice for people, communities and countries on the frontlines of climate change. Carbon dioxide levels continue to rise – to a level not seen in 2 million years.

……10. First, I urge Heads of State and Government to recommit to seven years of accelerated, sustained and transformative action, both nationally and internationally, to deliver on the promise of the SDGs.

…….20. I also call on Member States to recognize and address the need for deep reforms of the international financial architecture through a new Bretton Woods Moment, including by enhancing the voice and participation of developing countries in the governance of International Financial Institutions.   *(CBDC’s are coming)*

The article goes on to state ….. The SDG summit, in September 2023, must signal a genuine turning point. It must mobilise the political commitment and breakthroughs our world desperately needs. It must deliver a rescue plan for people and planet.

At the centre 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 SDG’s. 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 SDG by 2030 will demand that political leaders must make bold decisions to match their ambitions.   It will require transferring resources from one sector to another, creating new regulatory environments, employing new technologies, and mobilising a wide range of actors to advance disruptive change. Doing so can strengthen trust and social cohesion.

*CBDC’s* I suggest you read the following article by Britt Gillette on the danger of CBDC’s which is how Antichrist will be able to rule the world, as seen in Revelation 13: 16-18. https://www.raptureready.com/2021/03/20/central-bank-digital-currencies-coming-enslavement-by-britt-gillette/

So much is happening at a speed and scale previously impossible, and we need to be aware of these changes today or we’ll get caught out.

What else do we know about this SDG summit?  It is set to commence the day after “The Feast of Trumpets”  which a huge number of Christians believe will be the day of the Rapture of the Church to heaven. (ROSH HASHANA)  The Feast of the blowing of trumpets. The secular New  Years Day of Israel, and remember, this year is the Year of Jubilee in Israel.

Leviticus 25:9  Then on the Day of Atonement in the fiftieth year, blow the ram’s horn loud and long throughout the land. 

Leviticus 25:10  Set this year apart as holy, a time to proclaim freedom throughout the land for all who live there. It will be a jubilee year for you, when each of you may return to the land that belonged to your ancestors and return to your own clan. 

Today, 28/07/2023 ABC World News announced that the Secretary General of the U.N. said that the world is no longer in a period of “Global Warming”, but that we are now in a period of “Global Boiling”, and that as a result of this, the world must triple its efforts to fight “Climate Change” immediately.

I find it interesting that the following warnings were given 2000 years ago, and everybody scoffed at them.

  1.  The world would reach the point where no flesh would survive what was happening, unless God Himself stepped in and shortened that time period.    Matthew 24:22  And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened. 
  2. When did the world stop scoffing at this warning?  When Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical weapons of mass destruction arrived.
  3. The world scoffed at  Revelation 11:9-10  Then those from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations will see their dead bodies three-and-a-half days, and not allow their dead bodies to be put into graves. 10  And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, and send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
  4. When did they stop scoffing? When Television came on the scene, and now of course our Smart Phones help also.
  5. They scoffed at the possibility of Israel ever coming back into the land of Israel, and form their own State of Israel, the Muslims among others, swore they would never allow it.
  6. When did they stop scoffing? On the 14th of May 1948 when it happened.
  7. They also scoffed at the idea that at the same time, in 1948 “Climate Change” would commence.  This was foretold in two parts.     (a)  Matthew 24:6-8  “And you will hear of wars and rumours of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. (7)  For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. (8)  All these are the beginning of sorrows.”   

These verses pertain to “Climate Change”  The Greek word used for earthquakes is “Seismos” and it means  G4579; a commotion of the air, a gale, of the ground, an earthquake: a tempest.  See the Strongs Greek Dictionary.  They still scoff at the fact it was foretold 2000 years ago, but the proof of the pudding is in the eating, it is happening.

The final verse  “All these are the beginning of sorrows.”  The word sorrows is translated “Birth pains” in most Bibles today. The closer to the birth, the closer together the pains, and the more painful they are, and we are right at that point today, as António Guterres said, the world is beginning to boil.

(b) Finally the timing foretold in Matthew 24:32-34  “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. (33)  Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. (34)  Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.

In Scripture, the fig tree is the emblem of Israel.  This generation will not pass away, refers to the people who witness Israel coming back to her own land in 1948.  

All the things put together can mean only one thing, we are very, very close to the day Jesus will snatch His Bride away from this disintegrating planet and take them to their home in heaven, as promised in Leviticus 25 above.   We need to be ready every day.

Matthew 25:13  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.

TO BE – OR – NOT TO BE.

The world today is in total chaos, and there are many around the world who openly question the sanity of the world’s leaders, because of the decisions being made regarding the future of the world’s peoples, and the physical planet.

If you have not read my previous article –  6 OR 7 —  INSANE OR EVIL, I suggest you scroll down to it and read it before you read this article. 

The following article is by Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham.

Franklin Graham: ‘Never Before In America Have We Seen Such Open Contempt For The Word Of God’

“I warned the thousands at the NRB convention that a storm is coming, and we’d better be ready because it appears as if all the demons in hell have been turned loose. Never before in America have we seen such open contempt for the Word of God. And when I say demons, I mean just that.  …….…

Behind the disdain and hatred for Christ and His followers is the evil one, plus his minions who for a season have been allowed by God to work evil on Earth. Remember that the devil is a deceiver, a murderer, a destroyer by his own sinister, wicked nature.”

This leads to my question, TO BE – OR – NOT TO BE,  A “TRUE CHRISTIAN.”

Franklin Graham makes no bones about the fact that “True Christians” are hated by this world, and that a large percentage of that hatred is demonically inspired by Satan’s demons from hell.

John 15:18  Jesus said “If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first.

Since already over 2000 prophecies made in the Bible have been accurately fulfilled, and a further 200 to 300 can be clearly seen in the pipeline, and progressing rapidly towards fulfillment; is it worth going against God or not?

The problem for all of us is that for over 5000 years the prophecies in the Bible have been indisputably and accurately  fulfilled and recorded in the annals of many of the nations in which they took place, Persia, Egypt, Rome, Israel, etc.

The Bible is the irrefutable word of God, as seen in the previous paragraph.  Hundreds of scientists, atheists, historians, and others have tried to disprove various parts of the Bible, only to be proven wrong in later years by archaeologists, scientists, mathematicians, and other experts.

There is enough proof in the Bible to show us that the  word of God  is irrevocable; it can neither be changed, nor can it be stopped from coming to pass. No other manuscripts or books can compete or compare.   It will happen!

The big question in most religious people’s minds is when will their Messiah,  Saviour,  Mahdi reveal Himself?  I know from researching many Jewish, Islamic and Christian websites, that many Jewish Rabbis believe it will be this year, in fact a few believe their Messiah is already walking among them, waiting for the right day to reveal Himself to them.

I know also from Muslim religious sites, that many of their religious leaders also believe their Mahdi will arrive sometime this year . 

As a student of Bible prophecy for many years, and because what is happening in the world today was all foretold in the Bible many years ago, I agree with a large number of Christian eschatologists, that it will be sometime this year.

The eschatology of every religion as to what happens when and after their Messiah,  Saviour,  Mahdi, etc arrives, are all different.

I would estimate from my studies and observations, that 80 to 90 percent of The Bible, (That is the Torah, the Tanach and the New Covenant) given in Jeremiah 31:31  “Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah …… —  is accepted today as accurate by the three major world religions, Christianity, Islam, and the Jewish Rabbis.  From reading the Quran, I saw that the prophet Mohamed agreed with at least 80 – 90 percent, and I have already quoted him in another article titled  “Who Owns This Land” on this website a few weeks ago.

Considering all I have written here, we need to ask ourselves, are our current beliefs worth holding onto, in light of what is certainly coming?  

John 14:6  “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me”. 

If we become “True Followers” of Jesus Christ, we are going to be hated by the world of unbelievers.  They will try to destroy us and our livelihoods through their persecution, their discrimination, their lies about us, and their contempt of the Bible and its writings, the truth of which leads us to eternal life, —when we are prepared to obey it.

This persecution of “True Christians” and hatred of The Bible has already begun in many countries.  Pride and its six coloured rainbow flags, badges, and emblems have replaced God in millions of people around the world and it continues to spread.

Franklin Graham refers only to the USA, but the evidence of this persecution of “True Christians” and hatred of “The Bible” is also widespread in the UK and throughout all of Western Europe. 

This persecution can now be seen in the many different  countries of the world whose laws forbid converting from one religion to another religion on pain of death or imprisonment.  It is clear that Christians and Jews are the main targets.

Think about this quote of Jesus who said in  John 3:16  “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.  17  For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18  “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” 

The long and short of it is this, believe, love, and obey God because of what He has done for us, or continue to live in unbelief, at enmity against God, and be condemned for ever to live in  the place God prepared not for men but for fallen angels, and that is hell.

We must realise that if we follow Jesus Christ we will be hated just as He was hated. We may be killed because of our faith in Jesus, as hundreds of  Christians are being killed each month around the world, just as Jesus was killed in order to save us from God’s wrath.

Jesus said in Matthew 10:38   “And he who does not take up his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.” 

Matthew 10:33  “Whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven”. 

Jesus foretold in Matthew Chapter 24,  Luke Ch. 21, & Mark Ch.16 what was going to happen from the time God brings Israel back into their own land until today.

Matthew 24:32   “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: (Israel) When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. (33)   So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors!  (34)  Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.” 

In the Bible the FIG Tree represents Israel.  God brought Israel back into their land as promised in 1948. We shall not all die until everything discussed in chapter 24 has been fulfilled, including the “Great Tribulation” of seven years. 

TO BE. If we do not want to face God’s wrath in the “Great Tribulation,” we will have to decide quickly TO BE a “Committed Christian” with the possibility that we may have to die for Jesus in order to escape God’s wrath, and live with God forever in heaven.

OR – NOT TO BE a “Committed Christian,” and to continue living in unbelief of  God’s book “The Bible,” proven for over 5000 years to be infallible, and as a result, live with Satan and his demons forever in hell.  It’s our choice.

Matthew 25:13  “So you must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my return”.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR FEAR, BUT IT IS THE TIME TO REJOICE.
