End-times Briefing 8: Hourglass of End-time Harvest – Veronica West

[First posted 25.6.20]

Late yesterday afternoon Veronika posted this on her ministry Facebook. Upon reading it Neil Mackereth, author of SIGNS: The Significance of Bible Prophecy reacted as follows,

“That is very powerful indeed…I also had clear direction that the time of allowing the wheat and the tares to grow together is about to end – the harvest of separation is about to begin.”

I reminded him of my hearing in 2008, “This is ALL about to be fulfilled!” upon opening my Bible to re-read Matthew 13’s parable of the wheat and tares harvest – see Briefing 1, Why? and The End-game Is Now In Play (we were soon to become good friends).

Here’s Veronika’s Facebook version and this published on His Kingdom Prophecy:

AN URGENCY OF TIME; THE GOLDEN REVOLVING DOOR OF THE AGES and of ETERNAL DESTINY — THE HOURGLASS of the END-TIME HARVEST!

Last night I had a powerful dream that I would like to share for the purpose of Prayer.

This dream was incredibly complex and so I will do my best to describe what I saw, heard and felt in the dream. So please bare with me as I try to share and interpret what I saw, and what I believe The LORD is revealing.

As I woke from the dream in the early hours of the morning, I immediately began to draw what I saw in the dream (see pictures below).

This dream came with such an urgency of the times and the need to begin to cry out for the nations of the earth who are in the valley of decision.

I believe this dream speaks to the 11th hour. A kairos time in the earth. An appointed time of The End-time Harvest!

For an eternity without Christ is an eternity of damnation and darkness…!

In this dream I was caught up in The Realm of The Spirit where I could see the globe of the earth. And yet at the same time, I could see all the nations of the earth laid out before me like a map.

As if in three dimensional vision, I could also see the boundaries of the many nations and the different people of those nations, but as I looked at the globe of the earth, suddenly a large clock appeared before me and I could hear the sound of ‘ticking” in The Realm of The Spirit.

The deep sound of ticking, seemed to penetrate my innermost being, which caused a great urgency to rise up within me, (an urgency that time was running out) and then I heard these words,

“The Clock of Creation. Time and Eternity.”

As I heard those Words, suddenly I saw what looked like a heavy Golden Revolving Door that sat at the centre of The Clock (the type of revolving doors you would see at the entrance way of a large hotel or even a hospital, the type of door that has multiple entryways).

As I looked at the heavy Golden Revolving Door, I heard these words,

“The Golden Revolving Door of The Ages and of Eternal Destiny.”

I could clearly see the three hands of The Clock, the second hand, the minute hand and hour hand. The time on The Clock read 11:55, and between the minute hand which sat at (11) and the hour hand which sat at the (12) there was an “entry-way”.

Then I heard these words,

“Grace! Grace! Grace! Grace! Grace! For these are the days of My Grace, come! Enter in… For now is the time for a great Harvest is at hand.”

Five times I heard the word “Grace!” and then I heard again the loud sound of ticking which echoed in The Realm of The Spirit.

My eyes were drawn to the second-hand on The Clock, which was moving around the face of The Clock with great momentum, and then suddenly, my eyes were drawn to the centre of The Clock and a Golden Hourglass appeared over the face of The Clock..

I heard these words,

“The Hourglass of the End-time Harvest”.

As I looked at The Golden Hourglass, I saw that the top of the Hourglass was narrow and the bottom of the Hourglass was wide…and… I could see the sands of the Hourglass falling.

Then suddenly I saw Jesus and a multitude of Angels standing at the centre of the Hourglass and His Face was turned towards the “doorway/entry point” of The Golden Revolving Door and the nations of the earth were standing on the threshold of the entryway.

I saw the right hand of Jesus lift up and He was knocking. Then suddenly my eyes were drawn back again to the small second hand of The Clock, which was still moving very fast.

I felt again such an urgency in my spirit, as I could see that as the small second hand moved, so the minute hand was moving and the entryway of The Golden Revolving Door was getting smaller and the top of the Hourglass was getting narrower.

At that point in the dream I began to cry out for ‘mercy’ for the nations which had not yet entered through The Golden Revolving Door…

And as I cried out… suddenly, I saw what looked like (5) Archangels of The LORD, each one standing at different markers on The Clock…different ‘entry points’ of The Golden Revolving Door (which I knew by revelation represented different times in history).

Then I heard these words,

“Angels of Awakening. The Guardians of past great Revivals and Awakenings on the earth”.

As I looked at the first Angel, I saw the time ’17:30’ come up before me and I knew immediately that the time represented the ‘year 1730’ which was the start of the ‘First Great Awakening’.

As I looked at the Archangel of Awakening, I saw a blazing sword of Fire in his hand and the angel stood guard at the entry point of that time… and the doorway was ‘sealed shut’ by a wall of fire!

Then I saw the time ’18:20’ come up before me. Again I knew that the time represented another time of a great spiritual awakening in the earth, the ‘year 1820’ was the beginning of the ’Second Great Awakening.’

Just like I saw with the First Great Awakening, I could see a second Archangel of The LORD standing guard at the entry point of that time in history and with a blazing sword of Fire in his hand and the doorway to that era was ‘sealed shut’.

Now as I kept watching and listening in the dream, the time and numbers ‘1875‘, the year of the ‘Third Great Awakening’ also came up before me, and then ‘1906‘, ‘The Azusa Street Revival’ and then ‘1910‘, the beginning of the ‘Twentieth Century Revival’.

As each of these specific times in history came up before me, I watched as the heavy Golden Revolving Door would move and the time on The Clock would change and the sands of The Golden Hourglass would fall.

As I watched, each great awakening come and go, I saw Archangels of Awakening being stationed at each entry point and a wall of Fire would seal shut that time in history!

But then the dream shifted again and my eyes were drawn away from the past times of great awakening which were now sealed off by a wall of fire.

As my eyes were drawn back to the time on The Clock and I heard these words,

“The 11th hour Harvest is here…. And the Reapers are Angels!”

As I heard those words in the dream, suddenly I saw again Jesus and the multitude of Angels who were standing at the (centre of The Clock, at the centre of The Golden Revolving Door and the centre of golden Hourglass) and I heard these words,

”Prepare! Prepare, for I stand at the door and knock, for the time is short. Watch! For the 11th hour Harvesters are now being released onto the earth.”

As I heard those words, I saw the multitude of Angels who were standing with Jesus, being released into the nations and I saw they were carrying golden sickles in their hands.

I watched as The Angels of The Harvest went forth upon the nations, and then I saw the Sons and Daughters of God begin to rise up within the nations and they began to co-labour with The Angels of The Harvest.

I watched as multitudes of people from every tribe, tongue and nation across the earth, who had been standing in The Valley of Decision and on The Threshold of The Entryway of The Golden Revolving Door, begin to enter in and cross over to the other side.

I could see the sands of The Golden Hourglass beginning to fall with an even greater acceleration, as both ‘time’ was being accelerated and ‘heaven’ was being populated.

As I watched The Angels of The Harvest and the Sons and Daughters of God moving together across the harvest fields of the nations, the sound of the ticking clock seemed to be growing louder and louder with every passing second.

Then suddenly I heard these Words,

“Watch and Pray! For but a little while longer The Golden Revolving Door of The Ages and of Eternal Destiny stands open before the nations.
“As the days of My Grace and Mercy are poured out upon the nations, watch! For the time is here, for the 11th Hour Harvesters will herald the birthing of a new great awakening on the earth!”

PS – A few things to ponder and pray!

As I woke from this dream, I began to write and draw everything I saw and heard in the dream!

While meditating over this dream, a few things that really struck me as powerfully significant in the dream.

The first was the repeating of the number five (5) and the mention of God’s Grace… Grace, Grace, these are The Days of Grace!

Another amazing aspect of the dream highlighted to me were the five Archangels of Awakening and how they stood as guardians over the past awakenings and how a wall of fire sealed off those different era’s of awakening.

I felt as I prayed over this aspect of the dream, The Holy Spirit impressed upon my heart that while the past awakenings were incredibly powerful and amazing in their time, what God is about to do in this ‘new era and great awakening’ in the earth will look nothing like the past revivals, and that heaven is about to do a new thing in the earth — ‘that eyes have not seen, ears have not heard and minds have not imagined’!

Again and again, the urgency of time in the dream was impressed upon me.

The time is now! The time is short! There is an supernatural acceleration taking place over time!

This certainly kept getting stronger and stronger in the dream…

The Golden Revolving Door of The Ages and of Eternal Destiny is closing…. The 11th Hour Harvest is now upon us…

The nations are standing in The Valley of Decision, standing on the threshold…

As Sons and Daughters we must arise and begin to co-labour with The Angels of The Harvest for this is a kairos time… an appointed time of harvest on the earth….

No more delay!

End-Times Update: earthquakes, the earth is speaking! (PPU 125)

Posted on by

In End-times Briefing 3, Sign 5 cites Jesus in Matthew 24.7 – emphasis mine:

  • “And there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven ; All these are the beginnings of sorrows….”

Thus, He’s not prophesying a major earthquake but significant ones in many places, but with possible inference of proximity in time, that is within a certain period of time. From minute 4 of the following video pastor John Kilpatrick cites four on the Day of Atrocity against Israel, 7th October 2023, and eight more worldwide before the end of October. That is, a dozen within three weeks and soon followed by major events in Iceland.

“God said this is something you have to preach and I want the live stream and God TV audience to hear” (too).

Further to the two-part report on papal apostasy confirmed by a sign from heaven on the pope’s birthday, when lightning struck a statue of Saint Peter at a Catholic church near his home diocese Buenos Aires, the co-founder and CEO of LifeSiteNews John-Henry Western writes a profound, shocking short paper upon more proof of the pontiff’s heretical leanings:

End-times Great Apostasy – making God in our image!

This is one of the two aspects of this matter on my mind when I was blessed with the insight of God’s Word being His ‘Battle-Plan’. Revd Franklin Graham remarks about it on his Facebook as follows (emphases and linkage mine):

‘The Methodist Church in the United Kingdom has released its own “Inclusive Church Language Guide” that urges ministers and church-goers to avoid using words such as “husband” and wife” (and more) because those terms can be “hurtful” and “offensive.” Shame on the Methodist Church. These are Biblical terms—and marriage between a man and a woman is Biblical truth. The word “wife” is used in some 360 verses in 38 books of the Bible. They are in essence trying to edit what the Word of God says and teaches to be more appealing to the changing whims of culture.We are warned against that in Scripture. As Christians, we aren’t called to avoid what might offend people—we are called to share the Truth of God’s Word that can guide and direct us through every step of life.’

UN-BIBLICAL ‘BLESSINGS’

Let us not forget that in 2021 this body voted by 254 to 46 to allow same-sex marriages, requiring a change to the definition of marriage to be “a lifelong union in body, mind and spirit of two people who freely enter it”.  This is completely contrary to and at odds with what the saintly founder of Methodism, Charles Wesley, taught – and is utter heresy!

End-times Great Apostasy – confirmed by word from the Lord

Posted on by

I’m delighted to find Chris G Bennett posted this on his Facebook yesterday:

FALLING AWAY

I see one or two prophecies talking about many things being pointers to the end-times. One of the things I don’t see is any reference to the great falling away, or loss of faith, prior to Christ’s return for the rapture or the second coming. The Lord pointed this out to me the other day and said, very simply, “Have you ever had a look at this?”

Only one mention is made in scripture, in 2 Thessalonians 2:3, of this virtually ignored subject. So many either ignore it altogether, or they brush over it and try to pretend it’s of little or no consequence! Yet there it is, in plain sight for us all to see, to mark, note, and inwardly digest.

Here it is –

“Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.”

One question, simply,

‘Has not the present state of much of the church amply confirmed that “the falling away” has well and truly started and is progressing at an alarming rate?’ So much so, indeed, that many churches are unrecognisable as Christian churches, but rather resemble more as self-righteous glee clubs, full of gossip and other even less sanctified behaviour!

But the Bible tells us that unless this comes first, then other end-time events cannot happen! So God is not surprised nor dismayed nor even appalled as we so often are! He may be sad at the extent of our sin, but never surprised nor dismayed. Another important point to bear in mind – the falling away must happen BEFORE the other end-time events, and there’s never a timeline laid out in biblical prophecy. However, other end-time signs as in Matthew 24 and elsewhere in Thessalonians, all agree in their pointing to this particular time that we’re in today.

The present falling away is unprecedented anywhere in history – the signs are there for all to see – all of which are declared by scripture as being abhorrent before God, an abomination – yet the church daily goes against scripture and Gods law in so many ways!

  • Abortion/child sacrifice
  • Same sex marriage
  • No heaven – no hell
  • L.G.B.T.Q./Trannies
  • Unsaved & unrepentant clergy

False doctrines; e.g. Replacement Theology, Hypergrace, the twisted Word of Faith / Prosperity gospel, the fallacy that women are not speakers or leaders, and more … (I realise this incomplete list may cause contention but – so be it! I don’t want an argument so: Please just scroll on by!)

Even recently, the Methodist Church probably caused Wesley to turn in his grave again when they came out against the term “husband and wife” in favour of “partners”!

So, call the intercessors again! Yes, call the intercessors, and join them too, to wage spiritual war on the false gospel, on the ‘tolerant’ church, on the ‘live and let live’ communities.

We cannot ignore the falling away any longer. It’s not going anywhere unless we do something about it, and if we don’t do something about it, then God will but we will not like it when He does!

I don’t hate anyone, but I hate sin, even though I’m not innocent either. I love all of Gods creation, even the unlovable and hateful ones. All I can do is love and leave the rest to God. As Billy Graham famously said, “It’s God’s job to judge, Holy Spirit’s job to convict, and my job to love!”

CGB

RB: So encouraging after having posted 70 items on this grave issue that the Lord has told a friend to check it out! The primary topic of both Paul’s letter to the Thessalonian church is that of the Lord’s return and Paul spells out what will happen just prior to that dread yet awesome supra-natural event – and God’s permitting and dealing with it all!!

Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel

83 Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!
2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult;
And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

5 For they have consulted together with one [c]consent;
They [d]form a confederacy against You:  (..cont’d at BibleGateway)

The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom

2 Why do the [a]nations [b]rage,
And the people plot a [c]vain thing?

And the rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His Anointed,[d] saying,
3 “Let us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”

4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.
5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure: (..cont’d at BibleGateway)

Drawing the previous post to a conclusion with reference to Dr Jan Halper-Hayes’ most important point, as made at the close of her discussion with Steve Schultz, wherein she cites 2 Timothy 3:1, as in this screen-shot, I add “The full chapter describes precisely today’s widespread anti-God wokeness”.

Dr Jan quotes the Amplified Bible translation of Apostle Paul’s letter written about 1,960 years ago, the first verses of which chapter read (emphasis mine):

“Difficult Times Will Come”
But understand this, that in the last days dangerous times [of great stress and trouble] will come [difficult days that will be hard to bear]. 2 For people will be lovers of self [narcissistic, self-focused], lovers of money [impelled by greed], boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy and profane, 3 [they will be] unloving [devoid of natural human affection, calloused and inhumane], irreconcilable, malicious gossips, devoid of self-control [intemperate, immoral], brutal, haters of good, 4 traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of [sensual] pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to a form of [outward] godliness (religion), although they have denied its power [for their conduct nullifies their claim of faith]. Avoid such people and keep far away from them.’  [BibleGateway.com]

My New Spirit-Filled Life Bible defines the Greek ‘chalepos’ as follows and note: ‘The word describes a society that is barren of virtue but abounding with vices‘!

A couple or so years earlier Paul had conveyed to his disciple Timothy what the Holy Spirit had told him prophetically:

‘But the [Holy] Spirit explicitly and unmistakably declares that in later times some will turn away from the faith, paying attention instead to deceitful and seductive spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 [misled] by the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared as with a branding iron [leaving them incapable of ethical functioning]…’

This introductory background clearly foretells today’s great apostasy not only in many main-line denominations but also, according to his announcement this week, by the one who’s supposedly a successor to Apostle Peter presiding in The Vatican, Rome!

Lastly in case you may not have seen, please note the valuable contributions added to the previous post, especially Tim Shey on the City of London’s financial history and his inclusion of these links:

Modern Israel and Paul’s letter to the Romans – Neil Mackereth

The previous post with Neil’s covering email refers:

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ISRAEL – SOME COMMENTS ON ROMANS

After 2000 years of study, it may seem unlikely that there will be any truly new insights in our examination of Biblical prophecy. It is possible, however, that some truths will only be revealed at the appropriate time “But you, Daniel, close up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end” (Dan 12:4).

There was much that the disciples did not understand until Jesus was crucified, rose again and ascended into Heaven. In similar vein, much of Isaiah is clear to us now, after the cross, but must have been mysterious for the 800 years before Jesus was born

The OT is full of promises and prophecies that show that God has a special relationship with Israel and that they would be “the power in the land”. However, certainly in worldly terms, Gentiles appeared to take over the position of favour on the earth. Prophecy indicates that, in due course, God’s relationship with His chosen people will be restored. “Blindness in part is happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in. And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written” (Rom 11:25, 26 (KJV)).

“The fullness of the Gentiles” should not be confused with “the times of the Gentiles” (Luke 21:24): one refers to spiritual blessing, the other to earthly power. It may be that Jerusalem will not be free of Gentile involvement in its affairs until Jesus returns to take David’s throne. The very expression “until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in” shows something will change, and implies a difference between Gentile believers and Israel. Is there a counter in Heaven – the numbers mounting while Satan watches, without knowing the target figure?

In Romans 11, Paul (the “Apostle to the Gentiles”) reasons that branches of the Abrahamic “tree” have been broken off and Gentile branches (believers) grafted in. The tree, whose roots Gentile Christians share, is essentially Abrahamic. Note that Paul never considered himself as having ceased to be a Jew, nor as having moved into a new religion, nor did he ever disparage his Jewish pedigree. Jesus as Messiah was for Paul the full expression of Judaism. Later (Rom 11:13-14) Paul added that, despite his calling as the apostle to the Gentiles, the ultimate motivation of his ministry was the salvation of his fellow Jews (Rom 10:1)

The Biblical predictions (prophecies) of a restored Israel are amazing, and the re-establishment of the Jewish nation in Israel, fulfilled in 1948, is even more so. The survival of national identity in dispersion, which the Jews maintained for nearly nineteen hundred years, prior to the rebirth of Israel, was a phenomenon in itself

Continuing in Romans 11 we see that this hardening will stay “until the full number of the Gentiles has come in;” and Paul adds, “And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will turn godlessness away from Jacob, and this is My covenant with them.” (Rom 11:25-27). Does this mean that Israel will be brought within the blessings of the Gospel of Grace (the New Covenant), or that the Jews will be blessed on a different principle (the Abrahamic Covenant), or a bit of both? I really don’t know. Certainly, there is a remnant saved by grace: “at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace” (Rom 11:5, see also Rev 12:17)

As mentioned above, the OT clearly shows that the Jews enjoyed a special relationship (blessing). Jesus confirmed the patriarchal promise: “Christ has become a servant of the Jews on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs so that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy.” (Rom 15:8, 9). We can understand that the Cross broke down the barrier and levelled all distinctions. As to righteousness “there is no difference, for all have sinned;” (Rom 3:22, 23), as to mercy “there is no difference between Jew and Gentile – the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on Him.” (Rom 10:12). However, the promises to Israel are very specific. If there is “no difference”, can God give blessing on a principle, which seems to imply that there is a difference? In other words, the expectation of certain promises to Israel would appear to be inconsistent with the concept of “no difference”!

Romans 11 indicates that Gentile believers and Israel now enjoy the same privileges. Nevertheless, it is part of the same revelation that although grace comes to the Gentile just where he is, it does not confirm him as a Gentile, but gives him a new nationality as a citizen of the Kingdom of God; for in the Church “there is neither Jew nor Gentile.” (Gal 3:28. Contrast with John 4:22, “Salvation is from the Jews”). The promises to Israel, on the other hand, imply that blessing will reach the Jew as a Jew, i.e., recognizing his national position and endorsing his special relationship under the patriarchal covenant. Jesus will return to Jerusalem and take His throne as King of the Jews

The New Testament opens with the record of the genealogy, birth and ministry of Jesus as “the Son of David, the son of Abraham;” (Matt 1:1). Jesus was “a servant of the Jews on behalf of God’s truth” (Romans 15:8). The angel told Mary that the son she was to bear would be King on “the throne of his father David and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever” (Luke 1:32,33). The question the Magi asked: “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?” (Matt 2.2) appeared to be a confirmation of Jewish expectation

In both Daniel and Matthew, Jerusalem is the focus for End-Time events and that confirms the necessity and huge significance of the re-establishment of Israel and the re-unification of Jerusalem. The history of the Jews is a record of miraculous events: their escape from Egypt, their ordeals and God’s provision on the journey to the Promised Land were miraculous. Their successes and failures, conquests and captivities, their whole history is interwoven with miracles. The seventy years from Jesus’ birth to the dispersion of the Jews were full of remarkable events and prophetic fulfillment. From that time until 1948, however, there seems to have been a lull, as far as Biblical prophecy is concerned. We can now see the miracle of Jewish survival in dispersion. This is a new era: the very existence of modern Israel is the miraculous and essential ingredient for the next stage of prophetic fulfillment

In summary: “God has not cast away His people Israel” (Rom 11:1,2 KJV). In the Acts of the Apostles, Jerusalem was the centre for God’s people on earth, Gentiles were then admitted, “grafted in”. Initially, the Church was essentially Jewish. The Apostles taught in the temple (Acts 2:46; 3:1, 5:42). Their testimony was in line with the old prophecies (Acts. 3:19-26.), and even when the Christians were scattered by persecution, the Apostles remained in Jerusalem.

Those Christians who left Jerusalem evangelised only among the Jews (Acts. 8:1, 4, and 11:19). Peter had to be persuaded to go among the Gentiles (Acts. 10), and that was not popular within the Church (Acts. 11:2-18). Over the centuries the number of Gentile believers grew and the Jewish membership fell away. In Israel today there is a remnant “who obey God’s commandments, and hold to the testimony of Jesus” (Rev 12:17); Jews, and yet Christians; Jews who believe in Jesus, the One whom secular and non-messianic Jews will continue to reject, until He appears.

It is my personal view that there are two courses to the fulfilment of End-Times prophecy:
  1. The church (which includes messianic Jews) will be raptured, and…
  2. The remnant of Israel will then come to recognize who Jesus is, a conviction of sin, repentance and be saved.

The Day of The Lord – today’s verse puts ‘global warming’ in its place!

Holy Writ, as we well know, puts ‘global warming’ mania well and truly ‘in the shade’:

It’s highly appropriate for assessing our placing on the Almighty’s Timeline that we check the lead-in verses at BibleGateway.com (emphases mine):

The Day of the Lord

Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. 2 I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.

3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 

5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgement and destruction of the ungodly.

8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance…’ (cont’d in Verse of the Day)

PS to Update #6 – ‘Aliyah to Israel hits 30-year peak’

Posted on by

According to David Parsons, VP & Senior Spokesman of the ICEJ, in July-August 2023 edition of Word From Jerusalem:

‘Recently, Israeli authorities released the latest Aliyah figures showing that over 100,000 new immigrants have arrived in Israel since the start of 2022, marking the highest number since the mass Soviet Jewish influx three decades ago. Over these past 17 months, some 60,000 Jewish immigrants have come from Russia, 20,000 from Ukraine and the remaining 20,000 from other countries worldwide.’ (Aliyah to Israel Hits 30-year Peak)

Undoubtedly, this rise will continue as a result of the intensely anti-Semitic marches worldwide, and mirrored by uninformed, gullible younger generations.

GOG-MAGOG COMPONENT

NOW note involvement of Iran’s direct involvement in negotiations for releasing hamas captives – in total alignment with Islamic doctrine of dimmi status of non-believers, clear preferential treatment is given to muslim abductees. Everyone else as normal human beings are too inferior!

Apart from the documented fact muslims started this war, their utter lack of compassion is abundantly evident. It unequivocally disproves all claims whatsoever to their god being identical to the Almighty God of Jews and of Christians!!

Extract from Cordelia’s report (emphasis added)

‘…Behind the scenes, Thailand officials have been quietly working away at trying to get their citizens freed, attending meetings in Qatar and Iran. 

At the centre of the Thai negotiating team is Lerpong Sayed, a Thai Muslim who, in an exclusive broadcast interview, told Sky News Hamas was justified in taking hostages.

Dr Sayed in recent weeks has split his time between his home country and Iran, where he spoke to Hamas five times.

“We went there to negotiate as normal people, not politicians. Hamas saw this. They saw us as Thai Muslims,” he told me in an interview that provides a window into his high-level talks.

“They promised that if there was a ceasefire Thai people would be released in the first group.

“Now we can obviously see Thais are among the first citizens freed compared to 20 other nationalities.”…’

PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY DECREE

Yesterday, on Telegram’s Behold Israel Amir Tsarfati quotes:

‘PA senior official Jabril Rajub: “The events of October 7 were a natural reaction to oppression. The occupation and its crimes are responsible for the incident. The action was part of the Palestinian war of defense and the next outbreak will take place in the West Bank.”

And to end with a message of unity:
“Hamas is an integral part of the political fabric. The current campaign is the beginning of unity with the aim of establishing a Palestinian state on all Palestinian territories”
Rajub, a senior minister was a star in the “Partners Campaign” of the Geneva Initiative!”

What Rajub is hinting is that the military force of the Palestinian authority (that America so diligently helped build and fund) might do to Israelis near the West Bank what Hamas did to Israelis near Gaza.

The U.S. administration must wake up! The Palestinian authority is more of the same! It’s Hamas, ISIS Nazis!’

This comes as absolutely no surprise to Christians familiar with Bible prophecy, or to those comparatively few wide-awake folk who treat political rhetoric with contempt.

Anglicans’ apostasy is a clear sign Jesus’ Second Advent is getting close!

In ‘Looking for the signs of Jesus’ return’ since hearing “This is ALL about to be fulfilled”, one sign in particular continues to be blatantly obvious: the trans-sexual lobbying across church denominations with offensive flags of incomplete rainbows displayed in churches in support of ‘Pride’!  Most repugnant!

It’s one thing to apologise for the way ‘trans’-people have been treated by churches, but another to bow the knee to their selfish demands, deemed as ‘progressive’.

To any thinking Bible-believer it’s just one part of the fallen one’s strategy of attacking the future Bride of Christ to bring great internal division together with divergence from – as well as twisting! – God-given scripture of the Bible.

That source is as plain as a pikestaff in its usurpation of the sign God gave of His first Covenant with humanity – the seven-coloured rainbow.

Nevertheless, in view of my history I’ve been pleased to find churches of various styles have grown greatly in brotherly appreciation, despite the increasing satanic attacks.

Fallen by being kicked out of heaven, the hater of humanity’s main strategy has been to beguile church leaders into being ‘progressive’ instead of standing firmly upon the Word of God. Such reprobate leaders have led their churches into….

The Great Apostasy

2 Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition…

… 9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness. (2Thess 2)

That’s New King James Version. The Classical Amplified adds to verse 3 ‘[unless the predicted great [b]falling away of those who have professed to be Christians has come]’- footnote [b] ‘A possible rendering of the Greek apostasia is “departure [of the church]“.’

Thus, the foretold falling away doesn’t so much refer to non-churchgoing public turning away from believing in our Father God and Jesus Christ as regular believers choosing to leave behind any belief and deliberately departing from the faith.

In the brief background to my Theological thoughts on salvation and apostasy I refer to ‘lost salvation’ as a topic for Saturday Men’s Bible study. In our online chat and saying the Lord had poked me to blog on it, I added my hope of getting a Deuteronomy 19:15 two-witness confirmation as soon as possible.

Indeed, I thought confirmation emerged with Friday’s news of Justin Welby’s apology for what was wrongly taken as a personal slight by the lead advocate in his Church’s move towards liturgical accommodation of trans-sexuality.

However, the usual personal confirmation was yet to come in Sunday morning’s service. A congregant with top diosecan connections briefed me about the disastrous outcome of last week’s Anglican General Synod.

CORRECT TRANSLATION? 

In last Thursday’s Theological thoughts on salvation and apostasy I refer to the interlinear Greek translation for ‘Falling away’ but noted a friend heading up Prophetic Releasers for UK Revival had commented upon my Facebook version of the previous day’s Bible Update: ‘Great Apostasy’ of Pope and Anglican leaders.

Geoffrey informs me the Literal Standard Translation of the Bible, a major revision of Robert Young’s Literal translation, posits an alternative “that puts a completely different outlook on this verse and the sequence of the departure (rapture) in future events”. He cites verse 3 as:

“do not let anyone deceive you in any way, because if the departure may not come first, then the man of lawlessness may not be revealed – the son of destruction.”

In my opinion, omitting any reference to ‘apostasia’ (falling away) makes the translation too ambiguous and unclear in what we expect of Holy Spirit-inspired revelation. What’s more, it’s just conjecture because the scriptural prophecy is actually being fulfilled in tandem with verses in other books.

So here’s A E Knock’s Concordant Method interlinear Greek translation, as published by Scripture4All, following this Introduction:

SCHISMATIC GENERAL SYNOD

Now, in catching up with my church friend’s recommended reading from the CEEC (Church of England Evangelical Council) it is abundantly clear the CoE is now moving into DEEP SCHISM

Some CEEC leaders’ comments (emphases mine)

  • “For many in the Church of England a line was crossed this week that we prayed and hoped would not happen.”
  • “We believe these proposals are being pursued without adequate provision and protection for those holding to the biblical, historic and global majority Anglican view on marriage and sexual intimacy. This underlines the failure of leadership by the archbishops and divided House and College of Bishops.”
  • “CEEC regrets that these changes will cause deep division in PCCs and parishes, deaneries and dioceses the length and breadth of the country, in the same way that the Bishops and General Synod are divided.”
  • Above from report of 17th November > https://ceec.info/responding-to-the-15-november-2023-general-synod-decision-looking-forward/
  • Next from report of 12th October https://ceec.info/ceec-welcomes-bishops-dissenting-statement/
  • “It is not very often that bishops from the House of Bishops express their dis-ease at something being proposed by the rest of the House. The statement is significant because of what it says.
  • “First, they name the deep disagreement that exists within the House of Bishops.  To publicly acknowledge the depth of disagreement is significant, given the seismic changes the House of Bishops is pursuing.”

Also, in Premier Christianity’s opinion piece CofE leaders are ‘walking together’ into sin. It’s a bad joke, Chief Executive of the Christian Legal Centre and Christian Concern, Andrea Williams, points out the bishops’ disingenuity

‘It is being widely reported that the Church of England’s governing body, General Synod, has backed trials of services blessing same-sex relationships. The Guardian says “services to celebrate gay marriages could be held within weeks”.

‘The CofE leadership are often at pains to claim that these services – and the prayers within them – only “ask for God’s blessing”, and that they don’t directly bless these relationships or sexual activity within them.

‘This is straight out of the CofE playbook: deceptive language that allows the de- facto approval of sin while pretending they’re not contradicting the Church’s doctrine of marriage. All this nuance is lost within minutes of the vote as media outlets report that these ‘blessings’ are going ahead.’

Bible Update: ‘Great Apostasy’ of Pope and Anglican leaders

First, let’s remind ourselves what the Holy Spirit told Apostle Paul around 50 and 64 AD, as in his respective letters to the church in Thessalonica and to his disciple Timothy, as in New King James Version (courtesy BibleGateway.com, emphases mine):

2 Thess 2 > ‘Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of [b]sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits [c]as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the  [d]mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only [e]He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.’

NB. Those closing verses should generate a righteous fear of the Lord in everybody!

1 Tim 4 > ‘Now the Spirit [a]expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron…’

In preparing the next posting upon apostasy in church denominations I found this prophetic word unpublished in my drafts folder.  Maybe six weeks delay is of the Lord?  Once again, I’m blessed to cite Revd Christopher Wickland:

Bible Update: is a ‘small’ yet HUGE event part of Psalm 83’s fulfillment?

Posted on by

A “Small” Event Actually Huge: Psalm 83:3–8 Being Fulfilled Now?

My prime focus in covering Israel’s self-defence is news of Iran’s role. So I’m pleased that Mark Davidson’s assiduous research – upon which I’ve often re-blogged under the tag ‘4Signposts’ – is bearing further fruit on this particular aspect in his latest post.

So I recommend your reading his report by clicking the above image, and which opens as follows:

‘If one does not know the Four Signposts as written about in Daniel Revisited, one can mistake Mideast events that have little significance prophetically, as big events. And vice versa.

We witnessed this two weeks ago: a relatively small event on October 18 was mistaken by many as an event of huge significance.

One week later, we witnessed the inverse. On October 25, a relatively significant event was dismissed by many as minor. That event is the subject of this post…’

And note well part of his conclusion, emphasis mine:

‘Just as we saw a minor event recently blown up out of proportion by people, people miss things again by assigning a “ho-hum” to a meeting of some leaders in Beirut which is actually fulfilling Scripture.’

Psalm 83 & ‘Gog-Magog’ Update: Iran warns Israel, Imam threatens whole world with war!

Posted on by

It was our usual long weekend with just a few intervals for being online and thus posting only quick news updates on Richard’s Watch Telegram, but I jotted above title for next post. First. however a…

CLARIFICATION:

Neil Mackereth’s The Existential Threat to Israel is a tripartite briefing and each part is not to be taken in isolation and thus taken out of context and get misconstrued, even in considering scripture, for which Chris Moyler provided extensive citations:
  1. (Return of The Mahdi) Islam’s Counterfeit Christ
  2. Gaza in Bible History and Prophecy
  3. A War for Survival

It is vital to be aware of how this situation relates to Islamic end-times doctrine. Neil subsequently writes me, “I am certain that Israel faces an enemy that is intent on its annihilation; ie. an existential threat. I know Israel will survive – the Bible tells me so.”

Further to Ezekiel’s Gog-Magog Prophecy Revisited – ‘Stop-Press’ on Part 3:

GOG-MAGOG ALLIANCE-RELATED NEWS:

A few for a quick scan through. First in case you thought Neil and I are making it up + confirmation of my ‘two jigsaw-pieces’ through a word brought by prophet Julie Green:

(Russia attacked Odessa)

A PROPHET’S CONFIRMATION:

SOME REFERENCE SOURCES:

PSALM 83 (BibleGateway link)

“Dear Friends (writes Chris Moyler),
James Goll is a seasoned and trustworthy leader in God’s House. In this video [RB: not attached] he speaks prophetically about this present Gaza War. He believes that it will expand and draw in all the nations that immediately surround Israel.

He says clearly that he believes this to be the fulfillment of Ps 83. Verse 4 is an almost word for word statement of the Hamas Covenant, which specifically states that Israel will be wiped from the map.

The Psalm concludes with a prayer for the destruction of Israel’s enemies, specifically in order that the SOVEREIGNTY OF ALMIGHTY GOD might be displayed through Israel’s victory, and that HIS NAME might be hallowed in all of the earth:

17,18 “Let them be put to shame and dismayed forever; let them perish in disgrace, that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth.”

And yet there is also a prayer for God’s grace to extend to those will will lose in this war:

Psalm 83:16 “Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O LORD.”

We want to see Hamas utterly destroyed, ditto Hezbollah, because these movements lead the peoples away from the only One who is able to give life to all mankind, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of Israel.

Amen

Finally, I continue to believe that this is NOT the final Gog-Magog war. Satan would like it to be so, because what he most fears is the emergence of the sons of God in the earth, Christ’s pure and spotless Bride.

Ezekiel 38:8 ‘After many days you will be mustered. In the latter years you will go against the land that is restored from war, the land whose people were gathered from many peoples upon the mountains of Israel, which had been a continual waste. Its people were brought out from the peoples and now dwell securely, all of them.’

please note:
-“restored from war,”
-“its people were brought out from the peoples”
-“now dwell securely.”
-“ALL OF THEM.”

Since King David and King Solomon, there has never been a time when ALL of the people of Israel have dwelt there securely, in THEIR OWN land. Therefore, I continue to contend that this must be the condition of the Land and the Jewish people in it, prior to the final Gog-Magog war. That war is exclusively in the FATHER’s timing, and NO-ONE ELSE’S.

HE ALONE sets the calendar of the Earth!

And, of course, Satan wants to prevent the VAST end time harvest of souls for the Kingdom.

But judgement has already been given to the saints, and he will NOT be allowed to “change the times.”

Dan 7:21,22
‘As I looked, this horn made war with the saints and prevailed over them, until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given for the saints of the Most High, and the time came when the saints possessed the kingdom.’

So let us banish all fear from our hearts, and let us boldly proclaim God’s goodness over and above these troubled days.

Amen, Chris x

Psalms 83:16 Fill their faces with shame,
that they may seek your name, O LORD.”

Prayer to Frustrate Conspiracy Against Israel

A Song. A Psalm of Asaph.

83 Do not keep silent, O God!
Do not hold Your peace,
And do not be still, O God!
2 For behold, Your enemies make a [a]tumult;
And those who hate You have [b]lifted up their head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people,
And consulted together against Your sheltered ones.
4 They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation,
That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”

5 For they have consulted together with one [c]consent;
They [d]form a confederacy against You:
6 The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites;
Moab and the Hagrites;
7 Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek;
Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assyria also has joined with them;
They have helped the children of Lot. Selah

9 Deal with them as with Midian,
As with Sisera,
As with Jabin at the Brook Kishon,
10 Who perished at En Dor,
Who became as refuse on the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb,
Yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 Who said, “Let us take for ourselves
The pastures of God for a possession.”

13 O my God, make them like the whirling dust,
Like the chaff before the wind!
14 As the fire burns the woods,
And as the flame sets the mountains on fire,
15 So pursue them with Your tempest,
And frighten them with Your storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame,
That they may seek Your name, O Lord.
17 Let them be [e]confounded and dismayed forever;
Yes, let them be put to shame and perish,
18 That they may know that You, whose name alone is the Lord,
Are the Most High over all the earth.

Ezekiel’s ‘Gog-Magog’ prophecy revisited – ‘Stop Press!’ on Part 3!

Posted on by
Reply

Neil Mackereth’s Part 3 of The Existential Threat to Israel must be so powerful it caused my printer to jam and stop working… a real STOP PRESS!!  After working at a desktop screen it’s always easier to read hard-copies of long articles, and so upon its receipt I wanted to peruse Neil’s latest at leisure over an afternoon ‘cuppa’ – BUT LOOK, it’s too powerful to print!

My printer seized up! The previous sheet had emerged with bent corner, but Neil’s item got solidly jammed – and ripped on both sides. Once cleared, it works normally!!!

In the mid-1980s I knew hardly anything about Bible prophecy when presented with two  jigsaw-pieces, a book and TV documentary. What I saw directly related to what Ezekiel heard from the Lord prophesying an attack upon Israel led by ‘Gog’ and ‘Magog’.  Since beginning to write upon End-times 15 years ago, I’ve posted news occasionally on the Gog-Magog alliance but over double on events relating to Iran.

Upon the 7th October Atrocity of utter demonic depravity I suspected Iran’s supportive direction if not direct involvement, which is becoming apparent not only through attacks by its hezbollah and houthi proxies but also by public announcements. So I posted The very first two jigsaw-pieces of my ‘Invisible Jigsaw’, Israel and Iran, citing its president. Around that time prophet Tomi Arayomi brings the Lord’s confirmation that “hamas is Iran’s patsy”!

AND it’s becoming increasingly obvious that Iran is directing attacks on those other two fronts before Israel has to decisively remove hezbollah’s rockets throughout Lebanon.

As a retired high-ranking army officer Neil Mackereth considers Israel’s options to deal with and defend itself from such heinous evil and possible outcomes.  Thus, along with latest news he tentatively considers the Gog-Magog prophecy and concludes:

“Undoubtedly, one of Satan’s objectives, in his attempts to undermine God’s redemptive plan, is to stop the fulfillment of Biblical End-times prophecy. To that end, he is seeking to annihilate all Jews so that Jesus has no Jewish Kingdom to which to return and rule. The Bible shows that he will fail.

“We may appear to be in an unstoppable downward spiral to disaster, but God’s plans will not be thwarted. It has never been more important to understand the signs of the
times, watch for the fulfillment of prophecy, and to be ready. JESUS WILL RETURN.
Halleluiah!”

Bear that in mind for the next post wherein we consider another friend’s response.

IRAN’S INVOLVEMENT

Now, however, look at more pointers to Iran’s active role as Gog-Magog principal nation along with ‘Gog’ Russia in the present-day, not necessarily precisely as prophesied by Ezekiel – in reverse chronological order:
