The rise of the Fourth Reich in UK – Revd Chris Wickland (Richard’s Watch goes full circle: 20)

PROLOGUE

WHEELS-within-wheels continue with Revd Christopher’s video message showing events really are happening as outlined 16 years ago in my very first email/blog The Endgame IS Now In Play of 29 February 2009. Therein I write,

‘However, (forbidding prayer for patients in hospital) is just one instance of the growing persecution of believers, principally through a policy supposedly promoting toleration but that’s now a tyrannical tool of intolerance – Equality & Diversity. There are other powers of suppression. Even the previous director of MI5 warns about UK sleep-walking into a police stateRampant lawlessness now exists not only in society but also within legal authorities – laws not approved by Parliament – ‘snoop and snitch’ culture – correction punished and evil behaviour rewarded – ID cards and routine interception of email and phones – etc etc. Clearly, Banking isn’t the only thoroughly corrupt UK institution.’

Several posts herein plus more on my personal Facebook and blog’s Telegram feature on police activity and arrests turning the UK into a fascist farce, and ridiculed across the ‘pond’ at presidential level. AND PM Starmer has digital identity cards in the pipeline!

SO we’re getting Apocalyptic, as in Revelation 13’s Mark of the Beast as I warned about from a personal insight “maSks only one letter away from maRk” (2024 summary).

So, it’s most encouraging that some church leaders have started speaking out….

Please take time to watch this half-hour sermon and I’m grateful to Chris Wickland for kindly providing this summary of the heart of this most serious issue (emphases RB):

THE RISE OF THE FOURTH REICH – Chris Wickland

What I want to talk about today is what I call the rise of the Fourth Reich.

In Nazi Germany, there was the Third Reich. For those who don’t know, “Reich” means kingdom or empire. According to Hitler:

  • The First Reich was the Roman Empire.
  • The Second Reich was Germany in its heyday.
  • The Third Reich was Hitler’s attempt to bring Germany to global prominence, which led to terrible atrocities under the guise of progress and nationalism.

The other night, Tracy and I watched the Bonhoeffer moviePastor, Spy, Assassin.

Watching it gave me chills because I saw parallels in Britain today. Initially, I thought the message was too strong, too much to share. But after recent events, it’s clear this is a time to speak, to challenge what’s happening.

In Bonhoeffer’s day, pastors were arrested for speaking the truth — 800 of them. How many pastors in Britain today would dare to speak the truth? Few, because reputation matters more than the cause of Christ.

A quote from the Daily Telegraph highlights current issues (RB: DT search results):

“The news that Maccabi Tel Aviv fans are to be banned from attending Aston Villa’s Europa League match in Birmingham is perhaps the highest-profile example yet of two-tiered policing. This case lays bare an ugly truth about British policing in 2025. The police have chosen to afford different rights to different groups. Israelis—or Jews—have again been relegated to second-class status. Imagine if it involved mainly Muslim supporters—would the outcome have been the same?”

This is happening in our nation. Subtle, clever propaganda is at work. We’re told actions are “for their safety” — a tactic reminiscent of totalitarian control.

Before diving further, let’s ground ourselves in Scripture. Ephesians 5:11 says:

“Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead expose them.”

Every Christian has a responsibility to speak, to act, to stand. To not speak is to speak. To not act is to act. There is no neutrality. You are either for righteousness or for darkness!

The Church is called to be children of the light, shining in this dark hour. Alarmingly, many churches today are doing their best to do nothing.

The Church’s prophetic role is to hold those in power accountable. This is what Bonhoeffer emphasized. If the Church needs to raise her voice, it is NOW!

I witnessed people at a protest in Southampton, hugging me, crying, grateful to see Christians with the courage to stand for truth and defend the nation. Grown adults were moved by someone simply wearing a clerical collar.

Consider the treatment of Jewish people:

  • banned under the guise of “safety,”
  • denied access to events, while governments and institutions remain silent.
  • Last year, London’s largest Christmas market was told to rename itself a “Winter Market” to avoid offending anyone.
  • This is cultural erasure.

It’s also a spiritual war. Cultural Marxism, political correctness, woke ideology—they infiltrate churches and society alike.

Compassion has become a cult, replacing justice and righteousness.

Christians must resist being duped by misleading agendas like Black Lives Matter or pro-Palestinian narratives that, at their core, aim to delegitimize Jews.

Zechariah 12:3 reminds us of the End-times significance of hatred against Jews:

“…all who lift it [Jerusalem] will be severely injured, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it.”

We see a subtle global hatred for Jews, often hidden behind terms like “anti-Zionist.” Yet Zionism simply affirms Jews’ right to their homeland. To oppose that is to oppose them.

The Church must not stay silent.

Many denominations today, including state churches and evangelicals, have taken pro-Palestinian stances. Some even forbid praying for Israel.

Those who remain quiet or complicit are aiding a cultural agenda reminiscent of Nazi Germany.

Matthew 5:13-16 teaches:

“You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden… Let your light shine before men…”

Churches have lost their saltiness. Many fear offending or being labeled extremist, prioritizing reputation over obedience. Yet Jesus called us to take up our cross daily, to live sacrificially, and to let our light shine.

History shows that Hitler promised the Church safety if it stayed out of politics. Today, Christians are told the same. But Scripture calls us to influence the world for God’s Kingdom — to be yeast in the dough, salt in the wounds, light in the darkness.

Who do we serve? The Jewishness of Jesus is suppressed in our churches. He is not a “nice white hippie”; He is the Jewish Messiah, and He will reign from Israel. Hatred of Israel or Jews is incompatible with serving Christ.

Acts 5:29:

“We must obey God rather than man.”

Romans 13 teaches submission to authority — but only when it aligns with God’s will. When governments contradict Scripture, Christians must stand for God, not man. [RB note verse 4 – governments are to act against – NOT promote and practice – evil.]

Christianity today faces persecution—sometimes subtle, sometimes overt. Those who speak truth are labeled fascists, Nazis, or racist. Yet those truly operating in that spirit are often anti-Semitic, woke, or culturally Marxist—mirroring the Church of the Third Reich.

Faith without action is dead. Silence in the face of evil is complicity. Dietrich Bonhoeffer warned:

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil. God will not hold us guiltless.”

This is the defining hour: light or darkness, truth or compromise. The Church must stand, proclaim righteousness, and resist the rise of the Fourth Reich in our time.

Amen.

“The Crucible of Patmos” is Key to the Valley of Vision – Veronika West

Last weekend a second powerful prophetic vision of personal relevance after that of the previous post, but for reasons relating to my dream Father, Let Your Kingdom Come!  (2011) not only for its location but also untold name directly echoing “Patmos” (!), was that told by Veronika West on her Facebook.

Thus, it’s effectively the 11th posting of the full-circle, wheels-within-wheels series! And so I’m grateful to Angus MacKillop for permitting use of images from His Kingdom Prophecy:

 A NOW WORD: “THE KEY TO THE VALLEY OF VISION IS THE CRUCIBLE OF PATMOS”

So, I had a powerful and profound Dream which I believe and submit, is speaking to The Body of Christ and particularly to the Prophets — to those who are seeking a greater level and measure of Prophetic Revelation, Illumination and Understanding.

A short dream – but powerful

This Valley I knew by Revelation in the dream, was “The Valley of Vision,” and I saw from a distance that the landscape of the Valley before me was rugged and the terrain looked difficult to traverse — jagged rocks jutted out from the hillsides, and the narrow paths that marked the landscape looked somewhat daunting.

The atmosphere in the dream was thick, and yet weighty and again I knew by Revelation that the very ground I was standing on was shrouded in Divine Mystery and Hidden Secrets.

Now, as stepped forward in the Dream, I felt a Mantle come upon me.

( It was almost as if I was being clothed and prepared spiritually to enter into The Valley of Vision.

I was taking on the very fabric of the Valley, the spiritual texture of that deeper dimension of the Spirit was coming upon me which would enable and empower me to both receive and carry what would be imparted to me should I enter in. )

But as I took another step forward towards The Valley of Vision, not only did I feel a tangible sense of great weight now upon me, but suddenly my Vision began to take on greater clarity, and just as I was about to take another step towards The Valley of Vision, I saw what looked like an Ancient Door suddenly appear before me.

As I looked at the door, I saw the Word, ”PATMOS” deeply engraved upon this Ancient Door!

Ha! Immediately in the Dream, it was quickened to me of John, who was sent to the Isle of Patmos where he wrote the Book of Revelation. [RB: aka ‘The Apocalypse’]

Now, as I stood in that place, I knew by The Spirit that the Ancient Door that stood before me in the Dream was like that of the Door of Revelation 4.

“After this I looked, and there before me was a Door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” Revelation 4:1.

As I looked and looked again at the Word “Patmos” engraved upon the Ancient Door, again I knew by Revelation that the Door was Living — it was Alive!

The Ancient Door was full of The Glory of The LORD, and the Ancient Door seemed to recognise me, as a Son of Righteousness.

( Even the fact that I was being given access to traffic in this Realm and dimension in The Spirit, through a Dream, I knew that I was Marked to be there — Called — to become a Partaker of a greater level and Dimension of The Vision Realm of the Glory. )

But as I stood in that Sacred Place, I was made to understand by The Spirit of Revelation that this was not exclusive to me, but rather this was an Invitation to the Prophets — to those in The Body of Christ — who are seeking the Face of God in this Season, for the unveiling and the revealing of the Knowledge of Christ unto greater Transformation and Reformation of The Nations.

The Glory Hunters were being Invited to “go beyond” the shallows in this Season — to “go higher” — to go where “Deep Calls Unto Deep…” (Psalm 42:7)

In the Dream, I could tangibly feel The Glory of The LORD — the weight of The Spirit of The Fear of The LORD filled the atmosphere!

Yet I knew that I was being given and shown a powerful and strategic message for the hour — a Message to the 11th Hour Prophets!

And though I was being given permission to stand before the Ancient Door, I was not yet permitted to go beyond the Door, even though there was a Invitation to “Come up here! Come up higher!”

In the Dream, I began to inquire of The Holy Spirit asking, ”Spirit of Wisdom, what must I do to enter into The Valley of Vision””

In reply I heard these Words, “The Key to The Valley of Vision, is the Crucible of PATMOS!”

I woke up!

As you can imagine, I was now wide awake; grabbing my journal; writing everything down!

But the first thing I wrote was; “The Key to The Valley of Vision is the Crucible of PATMOS…..”

I immediately felt to look up the word PATMOS — Meaning ; “My killing.” (Thayer : #G3963 : Πάτμος — Patmos).

Wow! Now, as I read those words, I believe and humbly submit that God is saying,  ”Patmos is the crucible”, where the fiery trials and tribulations will refine the Faith and deepen the vision of His 11th Hour Prophets into the coming Season.

This Valley of Vision is not one of despair, but rather of the Birth Place of Divine Revelation; glorious Illumination; greater Understanding and Knowledge — which will bring us into a greater measure of the Statue of Christ — the place where the veil is lifted and the 11th Hour Prophets are given unfettered access to look upon His Glory!

Then I heard The Holy Spirit say, Watch and Listen! For I AM Calling My 11th Hour Prophets into The Valley of Vision in this Hour, that their Eyes of Understanding may be Opened — and that what may BECOME what is Beheld!

Yes! For I AM Calling My 11th Hour Prophets to the Crucible of PATMOS — to the Place of Death unto greater Life and a Greater degree of the Vision — through the Light of My Glory and Power!

I say again, a Crucial of Patmos, where the Fires of Purification will bring forth greater Humility and Purity to My 11th Hour Prophets — an Invitation — to enter into a sacred place — the Birthing place of True Vision — The Valley of Vision — where the flesh dies in order that the Spiritual Senses can come Alive, and are fully Awakened, Illuminated and Ignited!”

Friends, ”The invitation is Open! It’s NOW — and it’s time to Respond in total Surrender, Faith and with Radical Expectation!”

Blessings to you all.

On the origin of the NWO and WEF: prophecies of great fall

Let me briefly give my understanding of ‘globalism’ and its use in this blog, as implied in almost 200 postings in New World Order category.

Basically it means worldwide interconnection of business and the interrelated network of nations and political activities, motivations, operations and plans. Yet it also has a direct relevance to Bible prophecy and what Jesus foretold and in His Revelation shared with apostle John, The Apocalypse. 

“New World Order” was a visionary term used in a speech by President George H.W. Bush to Congress on September 11th, 1990, as recounted in The Other 9/11 by The Dallas News.

Subsequent, geopolitical developments of that ‘vision’ advanced in tandem with those of the World Economic Forum, which was founded in 1971 by Klaus Schwab as European Management Forum and changed to WEF in 1987. Schwab was a business professor at the University of Geneva and as is now stepping down, as in the previous post on its prophesied demise.

The combined action by the WEF- NWO in the global implementation of controlling the world led to a great wake-up call by ‘Kiwi’ Barry R Smith in his renowned writings and speeches:

In more recent years those nefarious aims of globalization enveloped climate-change, net-zero and pandemic narratives and controls

JULIE GREEN PROPHECIES:

Now here’s yet another amusing timing from the Lord: I spent some time away from the desk upon Nina’s return home for I decided to search Julie Green’s site to add to the prophecy shown in the previous post and found many references to Klaus Schwab and was prompted to take capture another screen. THEN I saw the time shows personally significant numbers of my birthday ’22’ and a variation upon my first home address ‘212’ (featured during the Lord’s Visitation 36 years ago, as recounted herein).

Let’s look at just a few of those Julie brought from the Lord:

Great destruction of the One World Government is about to be seen. Yes, a great fall is coming that the world will see. Klaus Schwab, George Soros, Bill Gates, and many others are about to fall from their places of power and control.”  – 31 Jan 2023 Great Destruction Is Coming To The One World Government.

“Obama is nothing. Kamala is nothing. “The Biden” is nothing. The Clintons are nothing. Klaus Schwab is nothing. The elites are nothing. Their establishment is nothing. Don’t you see, My children? Your enemies are nothing. I am the Lord that will cut them off and bring their plans to nothing. My Army is moving forward to take them all out, saith the Lord of Hosts. 

George Soros’s money will be exposed in a major way, (showing) how he and his fellow elites used their fortunes to rule the world and change world events (such as) elections worldwide, how they helped to fund the machine in Washington, and how they paid many of your government officials to pass bills to take more of your freedoms away. 

My children, Soros, Gates, Schwab, the secret societies, and the UN are the ones who are really running your government, controlling the markets worldwide, and controlling the mainstream media and social media and what is allowed to be said on the news or spoken about worldwide—total censorship because they want total control“. 4 Sept 2024 The Silencers Are About To Be Silenced

“Major corruption will be eradicated, and explosive evidence and exposures regarding the UN and the EU, connections to the One World Government and this fraudulent administration in the United States, and the WHO, and how they devised a great plan against you and the whole world. Fauci, Biden, Nancy, Mitch, Chuck, Hillary, Zelensky, Trudeau, Macron, Gates, Schwab, and many of the world leaders devised a plan to steal your nations, your freedoms, and your lives. For world control and great depopulation. They planned to continue to lie and continue to enslave. Their plan was to completely take over. A plan to kill, not just lives, but to kill any independence, any faith, anything they didn’t want you to have, like privacy or your own way of thinking. They had planned to take it all away, and you haven’t even seen or experienced everything they wanted to have done to you by now.   

A great fallout is about to be seen. A great fallout and a great collapse. A great surrender, a great silence, a great reinstatement, a great restoration, a great transfer, a great removal, a great glory flood, great celebrations, and a Great Exodus. Yes, My children, a great fulfillment of My Word. A great time to be alive, saith the Lord your Redeemer. ” – 19 Dec 2022 Giant Moves Have Been Made To Secure This Nation

The Book of Revelation and the ‘Endgame’ parable – Rick Joyner

Since the Lord stunned me by dropping “This is ALL about to be fulfilled!” into my mind and spirit sixteen years ago upon opening my Bible to check what Jesus said about the parable of wheat and tares in Matthew 13 – as recounted in my first email on eschatology The Endgame is Now in Play – it’s been rare to read or hear anyone who  plugs that parable into End-times teaching, unless maybe within group discussion.  

Could that be because it may contradict claims about the ‘Rapture’ or ‘snatching up’ of believers upon Jesus’ Second Advent, as outlined in Paul’s first letter to the early church in Thessalonica? (1Thess 4 13-18)

However, Rick Joyner, founder/director of Morning Star Ministries, refers to it specifically in his latest message on his examining the Book of Revelation.

First, a reminder of Jesus’ explanation to His disciples about the purpose of parables after they’d asked, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” (Matthew 13 NKJV) He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the [a]mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.”

Then, when the gathered multitudes had left, His disciples needed to know what the parable of wheat and tares means and Jesus specifically relates it to the far distant future, the end of the Age (emphases mine):

“He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.38 The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one.39 The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the Age, and the reapers are the angels.40 Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this Age.41 The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness,42 and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.43 Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

Rick Joyner in his Word for the Week: The Book of Revelation, Part 9 not only refers to that parable but also likening it to today’s returning to the depraved Days of Noah, The Tower of Babel and ‘Mystery Babylon’. His brief study begins:

‘We have been talking about the Lord restoring mankind and the earth. In Revelation, mankind falls to its deepest depravity before the Lord comes to rule and restore. He said it would be like “the days of Noah,” which saw the worst corruption and evil the world would experience until the end of this age. In His parable about the wheat and the tares, Jesus said, “the end of the age is the harvest” (see Matthew 13:39).

In this parable, Jesus was speaking of how the wheat and tares would grow up together. The harvest is when all the seeds that have been sown will come to full maturity, so both the good and evil sown into man will come to full maturity at the end of this age. Then, we will experience evil in its fullness—the full maturity of the sin of man personified in “the man of sin”—and the full maturity of the nature of Christ will be manifested in His people. This is predicted in Isaiah 60:1-3: “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; but the Lord will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you. And nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” …’  (continue reading here)

As with Johnny Enlow’s Embracing the Golden Age, It is most encouraging to read a learned leader’s analysis that’s independent of overarching doctrinal direction.

WEF confirms global compliance test, thus validates prophecy – plus a ‘God-incidence’

References:

For newcomers, the first of above references includes not only internationally acclaimed books on the ‘Big Brother’ and on the New World Order’s methodology of introducing the Mark of the Beast, but also my hearing the Lord with confirmation from a prophet and follow-up on its connection with the imposition of masks and cashless society.

Now we catch up with the weekend’s news and how its significance may have been confirmed ‘God-incidentally’….

PrintFriendly versionSubstack source (as below)

Leo launches into his lengthy report by stating,

“I have long said that Covid 19 was launched by design by a small number of people in the globalist predator class for one reason and one reason only — as a beta test for the coming technocratic new world order.

Now, we’ve got the World Economic Forum coming out and all but admitting that was exactly why the Covid-19 “pandemic” had to happen.

The WEF gleefully posted the following snippet to the “My Carbon” page of its website where they make a pitch for so-called smart cities, which is just another term for 15-minute cities….” (continue reading at Substack)

Being a weekend I took some screenshots and hoped to blog Monday. But visiting our local pharmacy I encountered backlog issues and wrote to surgery’s management as well as signing an online Petition to NHS to Save Our Pharmacies (please sign if UK resident). So I mentioned this at the evening’s house group and management by phone app was raised – meaning not only one’s private financial but also confidential medical data is digitally accessible… taking us full circle back to our topic – NWO/WEF control.

SO, I posit to the group::
“Thx for the tips about the phone app; doesn’t it include your digital data onto the global database? The one that mapped your location during lockdown? As well as where, who, when and how you make cashless payments? Isn’t it the same process described in Rev 13:16-18? I wonder…”

“I heard from the Lord four years ago after already having confirmed Cv-19 is “Man-made” (ie a bioweapon) and since validated a couple of dozen times by top leaders.
When he woke me with “MaSk is 1 letter away from maRk” (ie of the Beast)

I understood it to refer to governments’ test-run of public compliance to wearing masks, lockdown and cashless payments. It was unexpectedly confirmed – word for word – by an American prophet whilst speaking about another matter! And now the globalist WEF has validated it.”

‘GOD-INCIDENCE’

Finally, I write “😁 A friend has just put this from an MP on his Telegram, so maybe the Lord’s pointing it out?” Chris Moyler had posted on Telegram this from the outstanding ‘warrior’ Member of Parliament…OH WOTTA COINCIDENCE!!!

“As said last night, I love it when there’s ‘two witness’ confirmation because it establishes a matter/prophecy (Deut 19:15)”

CONCLUSION

The WEF’s document clearly implies its servitude to satan’s strategy for global demonic control of humanity, as foretold in Revelation chapter 13.

RED ALERT and Matthew 24 Fig Tree – Henry Joseph Falcone

This deep insight is especially noteworthy because upon reading it via my Facebook home page on Monday and sharing I also inserted it on Richard’s Watch Telegram (be sure to visit as LOTS of prophecy-related news). I forwarded to a friend’s channel but a discussion ensued because he believes we’re far from the days Jesus predicts in His Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24) for the reason that many contemporary prophecies are yet to come to pass! I said of my having heard opening my Bible sixteen years ago, “This is ALL about to be to fulfilled” – SO I submit the distinct possibility of all true prophecies being conjoined with scripture in the rapidly accelerating End-times to deal with the increasing satanic evil of these days.

Thus, I submit the following as indicating how that scenario may be operating and was blessed to receive the ‘God-incidence’ of a double confirmation, as recounted in my Footnote:

WORD OF THE DAY, AUGUST 4, 2024: RED ALERT!!!! THESE NEXT FEW WEEKS WILL BE INTENSE!

FROM THE FIG TREE LEARN THE LESSON

Beloved, this morning I was quickened by the Holy Spirit Matthew chapter 24:

32 From the fig tree learn this lesson: as soon as its young shoots become soft and tender and it puts out its leaves, you know of a surety that summer is near.

33 So also when you see these signs, all taken together, coming to pass, you may know of a surety that He is near, at the very doors.

Saints of God, I have an alarm in my spirit going off for the past month and even more this last week. There is something brewing by the enemy we must be ready for.

BELOVED THINGS ARE GOING TO SHIFT IN THE NATIONS AND NATIONS DRAMATICALLY IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND MONTHS.

Latest test-run of Rev 13 ‘maRk’ of the Beast used to monitor and control citizens!

WE’VE BEEN WARNED SEVERAL TIMES OVER DECADES! Now, blatant ‘two-tier’ justice exists on both sides of ‘the pond’!  SO before we consider what the Lord is saying and doing FOR HE IS FAR GREATER, we need to be aware of scripture-relevant events:

The danger of demonic globalist control of peoples’ lives has surfaced occasionally throughout my life, for example:  

  1. 2020 – Trying to return to sleep early 18th July I got stopped by: “MaSks are 1 letter away from MaRk (ie. of the Beast) – Wake up Church”. Upon getting confirmation from a prophet I posted Personal Appeal: WAKE UP Church!
  2. This developed in my review of satanic strategy asking Are masks a trial-run?
  3. 2021- During a service, American prophet Robin Bullock repeated that insight exactly word for word even explaining it with the same understanding!! – 
  4. Thus, I reiterated its direct connection with imposition of cashless society during Covid Lockdown in MaRk of the Beast moves to the next phase.
  5. 1996-8 – Bible teacher Barry Smith warned in-depth about New World Order’s total government control and developing use of bar-codes [Barry Smith Evangelism – ‘…better than Nostradamus’ – ‘The Devil’s Jigsaw’]
  6. 1949 – Publication of George Orwell’s ‘1984’ about ‘Big Brother’ surveillance and control. [Google-search: ‘Orwell’s hope when he published “1984” was that he could communicate his concerns related to authoritarian governments. He wanted people to be aware of the potential problems that could arise if they did not pay attention to their government’s attempts to control them’.  See Overview & Analysis of Orwell’s novel 1984 at Study.com.]

Thus, I blogged and now with extra emphases:

‘That is, we need to realise that compulsory wearing of masks in public is a trial-run, or testing, the progress and outcome of which will inform and lead into the imposition of the infamous Mark of the Beast. It is a softening up and preparing the global population for such an eventuality, as foretold in chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important for Christian leaders to teach about being prepared for the End-Times.

‘…It dawned upon me we’re not only ‘one letter’ but also ‘one inch’ away from carrying the full marking, or ‘carved-effect’ (original Greek). The new legal requirement from last Friday imposes a mandatory restriction upon anyone wanting to go shopping and buy anything that focuses not only upon a person’s mask, thereby highlighting their forehead and eyes – its edge being on the bridge of their nose, is an inch below the forehead – but also upon waving a hand in order to buy without handing over cash or cheque, or tapping one’s own private code.’

Regarding the new PM being two-faced, Telegraph’s Assistant Editor Michael Deacon comments in Two-tiered Kier showed his true colours years ago – We should have seen the warning signs:

‘On June 6, 2020, 14 police officers were injured in London after a Black Lives Matter protest turned violent. One female officer suffered a broken collar bone, broken ribs and a collapsed lung after a protester threw a bicycle at her horse, causing it to bolt. The next day, at another Black Lives Matter protest in London, a further eight officers were injured. One was pictured with blood pouring down his face.

Then, two days after that, Sir Keir Starmer chose to publish a photo of himself, solemnly taking the knee.’

NB: Thank you to Chris G Bennett for informing me about this directly implicit danger of surveillance and crowd control :

End-times Briefing 14: Mark of the Beast and contactless payments

[First posted 3.7.20 – update April 2024]

As if by coincidence, a week ago today three people alerted me separately to ‘the Mark of the Beast,’ as in the 13th chapter of The Book of Revelation, as herein:

The Beast from the Earth

11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives [f]those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 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. 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, 17 and that no-one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 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.

Friday 26th June was the latter half of 24 hours of fasting to finish a week of prayer held by our church. I limited my drinks to tea or coffee and didn’t have any accompanying ‘yummies’! Therefore, this unusual when joining a couple for a chat over morning coffee at Petersfield Heath. It was their first time near others since the start of lockdown three months ago.

For several weeks the outdoor cafe has opened on certain days to serve take-away drinks, subject to ‘socially distanced’ queuing and not handling items, such as cash, for the good of the staff’s health. So, it’s ‘contactless payments only’. We’ve known the manager since the cafe first opened and my card is not enabled for such payments, so they allow me to pay by tapping my PIN whilst wearing one of their disposable gloves.

Last Friday, the manager took orders and asked if I don’t use contactless on principle, so I answered “Yes”. He said local Environmental Health officials are instructing businesses to reopen by following his method of accepting money. That is, local firms are now encouraged not to accept any cash, thus avoiding the risk of Covid-19 virus, and move entirely to payments enabled by a digital personal number – as foretold in Revelation 13!

2nd GOD-INCIDENCE

That evening Neil Mackereth emailed me a new article in which he quotes those verses in connection with a vaccination programme against the Covid-19 virus. The pertinent part coinciding with what I’d heard that morning, reads:

“Everyone will be encouraged to have the vaccination and, for seemingly very sensible reasons, to have an identifying mark (like a tattoo) to show their immunity.
In the early stages of “normalisation”, retail outlets (shops, pubs, restaurants etc.) will be able to relax social distancing restrictions, for those who can show that they have been vaccinated (i.e. have the mark of immunity)…I am not suggesting that it will be inappropriate to have the vaccination. However, if it is conditional on having some sort of mark, great care will be needed in assessing the appropriateness, in light of God’s guidance on the subject. (see Revelation 13:16-18).”

3rd GOD-INCIDENCE

Also, on Friday my phone alerted me to a YouTube video prophet Tomi Arayomi had issued the previous day in which he divulges a dream about lockdown of markets relating to the implantation of radio-frequency identification (RFID) micro-chips. He also brings an important prophetic word for the Church in these days.

In my humble opinion this video is essential viewing! It is most important that we know about such matters because they are directly relevant to End-Times and clearly indicate we’re now there..!!

No wonder I’m ‘God-smacked’ over what the Lord brought to my attention 7 days ago!

“By the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established” (Deuteronomy 19:15)

‘Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said’ (1 Corinthians 14:29)

End-times Briefing 13: Book of Revelation’s importance – 10 key points

[First posted 4.7.20]

In his third annexure to Simplicity, Neil Mackereth asks and points out:

WHY IS THE BOOK OF REVELATION SO IMPORTANT?
10 KEY POINTS

1. It is the Culmination of The Bible Story. The denouement.
Could you imagine the Bible ending with the one-chapter book of Jude?

2. It Shows Jesus in His glory – As King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
So awesome that even His close friend John fell on his face as if dead when he saw Jesus. We know Jesus as prophet, teacher, priest, healer and so on – but here we see Him in all His glory.

3. It Provides Knowledge: to Defeat Misinformation. A challenge to false prophets and false doctrine.

4. It Provides Knowledge: to Help us Understand World Events. Revelation shows that God foreknew, He is in control, and His plan will not be thwarted.
Current events: Israel, 1948 and following; moves towards a new world order – a world economic system and a world governmental system.

5. It Provides Knowledge: to help us be pathfinder guides and watchmen for Israel.

6. It is a Basis for Evangelism.
It is my contention that the incredible significance and glorious wonder of so much fulfilled prophecy in the Bible, is so “undersold” that it indicates the church has been duped into veiling parts of the Word of God Any other prophetic book that was so absolutely accurate over so many events over such a long period of time, would be hailed and revered in awe and wonder by the secular world.

7. An antidote to complacency.
We now know enough to not be caught unawares.

8. Future Focus: it prepares us for what lies ahead.
Revelation tells us more about our eternal home and condition, rather than our current temporary state – more about the significance and urgency of the choice we, and all people, need to make.

9. Worship.
A book full of worship, and how to worship – 11 major songs that have inspired a multitude of hymns and choral works, songs etc.

10. Because God tells us it is Special!
It is the only book in the Bible that blesses the reader and the hearer (Rev 1:3) John wrote it as he saw it and heard it, which may account for its unusual style – he was continually being reminded to write down what he saw and heard, and then told not to change it! – Reveleation 22:18-19.

End-times Briefing 12: an overview of the Book of Revelation

[First posted 2.7.20]

Briefing 11’s Introduction to the Book of Revelation draws to a close by its author, Neil Mackereth, stating “Apocalyptic works seek to inform the reader about aspects of an End-Times drama. The grand climax of the Bible is imminent — that is to say, it could happen at any moment…”  He reminds us, “The Bible explains that two absolute powers or principles operate in the universe…In the book of Revelation (and the whole Bible), God himself is the ultimate source of all that is good; Satan and his followers refuse to submit to God and are the ultimate source of evil. This ethical dichotomy underlies the conflict within the book of Revelation”.:

OVERVIEW OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION

The Prologue provides essential information for understanding the meaning and structure of the Book of Revelation. “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place; he made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who testified to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.” (Rev. 1:1–2).

Apostle John conveys to his first-century readers the unveiling of Jesus. It’s something like the showing of a video of a Monarch and his court. The Book of Revelation is written for Christians who understand the language of a faith unique to Christian experience. But given the complexity of the metaphors and images, even “insiders” have difficulty understanding Revelation. However, anyone can grasp the basic message: Jesus is going to return to earth, overthrow Satan’s evil empire, reward his faithful followers, punish those who reject his Lordship, and create a new heaven and a new earth.

From the very start, it is abundantly clear that God holds the Book of Revelation to be of paramount importance.

Revelation continues with 7 letters dictated by Jesus to John for distribution to the churches at: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea. The letters, which summarise positive and negative aspects of these representative churches, have stood the test of time.  They were written over 1,900 years ago but signpost conditions and circumstances that continue to exist in churches today.

The pattern of the letters is fairly consistent. Each is addressed to a specific church, followed by a particular characteristic of Jesus. Then comes positive comments (none for Sardis or Laodicea) and negative comments (none for Smyrna or Philadelphia), and advice to each.  The letters close with an entreaty that the readers will open their ears and hear, and with a promise to ‘overcomers’, which is different for each church.

These letters are relatively straightforward and understandable (which is not to say that we shouldn’t look for help to “unpack” their full meaning!).

From chapter 4 onwards we move into an altogether more challenging series of visions that are filled with symbolism, allegories, metaphors, imagery and other such figures of speech and apocryphal language: to try to interpret the Book literally would be to miss its meaning.  Some scholars argue that there are seven visions each of which is linked to a matching day in the seven days of creation in Genesis (ie. that the order of events links the beginning with the end).

The timing and sequence of events can be difficult to follow.  This is in part because the very act of writing things down gives them an order that may not be intended.  Some of the actions recorded are clearly happening simultaneously.

I have the impression that John (Jesus’ scribe) is seeing visions on a huge scale (like vast paintings) and trying to scribble down what catches his eye, without necessarily having time to arrange and classify the information.  It is clear that there are two or three sections that are digressions or parentheses from the central narrative.

Furthermore, the unusual style, which is not in character with John’s other writings, may have remained ‘unedited’ because of the very strong warning against alteration given in Rev. 22: 18-19.  These verses show us again that Revelation is both unique and of huge significance: no other book of the Bible has such a ‘health warning’!

In simple terms, Revelation shows that:

  • Things on earth are not right and the Church is not as it should be (Rev. 2 & 3);
  • Things in heaven are right: God is on His throne and Jesus is the overseer and leader for the End-Time plan and action (Rev. 4 & 5);
  • The world will suffer great tribulation for 3½ years, under the unholy trinity of Satan, the antichrist and the false prophet (Rev. 6-18);
  • Jesus will return as King of kings and Lord of lords, defeat the armies of the unholy trinity and establish His rule on the earth for a thousand years. The Day of Judgement will be at the end of the millennium rule, followed by the ushering in of the new heaven, new Earth and new Jerusalem (Rev. 19-22).

JESUS WINS!

End-times Briefing 11: an intro’ to the Book of Revelation

[First posted 2.7.20]

It’s now time to expand upon Briefing 3’s listing of Signs from the Gospel accounts and Paul’s letters by considering ‘The Apocalypse’, as in the annexures to Neil Mackereth’s paper dated 21st May: Simplicity. First, recall Apostle John’s opening remarks on its awesome origin, along with benediction (Young’s Literal Translation – in Greek here):

A revelation of Jesus Christ, that God gave to him, to shew to his servants what things it behoveth to come to pass quickly; and he did signify [it], having sent through his messenger to his servant John, 2 who did testify the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things also as he did see. 3 Happy is he who is reading, and those hearing, the words of the prophecy, and keeping the things written in it — for the time is nigh!

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION

The challenge in introducing Revelation to a new audience, or to infrequent readers of the book, is twofold: how do we make sense of this strange book; and how do we overcome longstanding antipathy to it, which, unfortunately, is often reinforced by those who should be explaining its message. I want to describe what apocalyptic literature is and to provide a basic overview of what Revelation is about.

The Bible, at its opening, quickly moves to the fall of man and the success of Satan. Then follows God’s sovereign selection of His chosen people Israel, the story of their triumphs, failures, trials and tribulations up to the first coming of Christ. The New Testament describes Jesus’ life and role as Redeemer King, His death, resurrection and ascension to heaven. At the close of the Bible, Jesus returns, Satan is overthrown and his followers are defeated. Without the Book of Revelation, the story would be incomplete.

First, I believe it is essential to consider what the writer’s mindset might have been, if we are to have any hope of untangling and understanding the book’s mysteries.

The Hebrew Mindset

Those who first taught me Bible truths encouraged me to read the Bible with integrity, in context and with a Hebrew mindset. I felt confident about the context and integrity aspects but, in the past, rather glossed over the “mindset” factor.

Recently, whilst meditating on the concept of divine control, I had a distinct feeling that I should address the mindset question far more rigorously. As I have come to understand it, there are three main types of mindset, and each will lead to a different world view:

  1. Barbarian: Tyrannical “strong man” rule based on control by fear. Typically, a ruthless dictator using extreme force to subjugate. Examples of the Barbarian mindset include ISIS, the Taliban, the Church during the Inquisition, Iraq under Saddam Hussein, Iran, North Korea and so on.
  2. Greek: Man-centric democratic rule based on the concept that human reason reigns supreme and that the application of intellect and logic can bring about a utopian liberal society. Ours is the pride, power and glory, there is no need for God. Knowledge is power and anything that cannot be comprehended is ignored. Examples include USA, UK, most European countries and communist nations.
  3. Hebrew: God-centric (Theocracy) based on acknowledgement of God’s existence and His absolute power and authority. A biblical way of thinking and acting that is Holy Spirit lead. Standards based on the Torah which guides moral values of right and wrong, holy and unholy. Examples here are more difficult. Historically, the Jewish nation had a Hebrew mindset. However, the new Israel, post 1948, is much more secular. There are undoubtably people groups and individuals who have a Hebrew mindset; but no nation.

The various mindsets do not necessarily operate in isolation. Barbarian groups may work within a democracy and vice versa. Also, to state the obvious, Bible believing committed Christians may live in democracies or in totalitarian states.

Why is it important?

If we don’t put God at the centre in our Christian walk and our Bible study, we will live on the fringes of what is available to us (Proverbs 3:5,13; Joshua 1:9; Psalm 1; 1 John 5: 13-15; etc.).

When considering the Book of Revelation, we need to overcome centuries of ‘Greek World-View’ interpretations and analyses that seek to apply logic and to deny or ignore any supernatural implications. Recently, it was made clear to me that the word ‘theological’ is a one-word oxymoron (contradiction in terms) implying that God can be explained by some logical process. We can learn a huge amount by a systematic approach to the study of theology, but the mystery remains and there comes a point where only faith and God-given spiritual discernment can help us.

God is in control and is shaking the foundations of our man-made democratic systems and liberal world view. I am convinced that churches which adopt the Greek mindset, and only operate in what they understand, will not see miracles. That is not to say that individuals with a Hebrew mindset within those churches won’t see miracles. Those with eyes to see and ears to hear will recognise that the weaknesses of democracy are being exposed.

BACK TO REVELATION

The word Revelation is synonymous with the word ‘Apocalypse’, which means unveiling or revealing. The Book of Revelation is so called because it reveals the glory of Jesus, and unveils God’s End-Time plan. Because of its “end of the world” association, the meaning of the word apocalypse has come to be used as a descriptive noun that denotes damage or destruction on a catastrophic scale.

John wrote the book of Revelation during the era of apocalypticism. This rather daunting word is more about how we view things than being a clearly definable literary style or type. There are historic plays and dramatic writings of the period, between 200 BC to 200 AD, that share some common literary themes with Revelation. Apocalypticism involves a view of reality where there is a disclosing, unveiling, or revealing of something that was previously hidden or secret. Put another way, when John was writing, an apocalypse would have been understood as a public disclosure of something that had previously been kept secret.

In a dream or trance-like state, John is transported to heaven and is given a conducted tour of God’s headquarters. There he gains some insights into the workings of heavenly realms and God’s operations room, and their interaction with the worldly realm. He sees and is briefed on various aspects of God’s End-Times plan, including some classified information which he is told he is not to reveal. For most of his tour he has an angelic guide who explains the meaning of the events and visions that John is witnessing.

The idea of an angelic mentor is not unique to Revelation. The books of Ezekiel, Daniel, and Zechariah have apocalyptic passages where angels provide commentary (Ezekiel 40:3–4, 43:6–27; Daniel 7:15–28, 8:15–27, 10:10–21; Zechariah 1:9–2:13, 4:1–6:15).

Further to this point, for a full appreciation of End-Times prophecy it is necessary to study a wide range of Old Testament prophetic books and New Testament scriptures. Revelation draws together many threads of End-Times prophetic writing. For example, the description of the antichrist given in Daniel 9 is developed more fully in Revelation 13. Similarly, the apocalyptical threads in Daniel 7-12, Isaiah 24-27, Ezekiel 37-41 and Zechariah 9-12 are all drawn together in Revelation. In other words, I don’t think that Revelation can be studied in isolation. Some theologians go so far as to suggest that the whole Bible could be studied (reverse-studied!) from Revelation: to which I would comment; such an undertaking would not be for the faint-hearted!

Apocalyptic works seek to inform the reader about aspects of an End-Times drama. The grand climax of the Bible is imminent — that is to say, it could happen at any moment. As the prologue of Revelation explains, “The time is near” (1:3). The Bible explains that two absolute powers or principles operate in the universe. A fundamental divide exists between good and evil. In the book of Revelation (and the whole Bible), God himself is the ultimate source of all that is good; Satan and his followers refuse to submit to God and are the ultimate source of evil. This ethical dichotomy underlies the conflict within the book of Revelation.

End-times Briefing 10 cont’d: key signs and prophecies

[First posted 1.7.20]
We continue Annex A to Simplicity and examine some items in earlier Briefings:

KEY END-TIME (or SECOND ADVENT) SIGNS and PROPHECIES

An awareness of End-Time signs will help us to see if any world events, as they unfold in the weeks, months and years ahead, can honestly be described as fulfilling Biblical prophecy. Analysis of world events in relation to prophecy requires care and integrity, both to ensure genuine spiritual significance, and to avoid “false news”, conspiracy theories and the pronouncements of false prophets. It will be exceedingly hard to convince a sceptical world that prophecy is being fulfilled!

Some prophecies in the Bible seem particularly significant, in light of current world events, especially in the Middle-East. The following prophecies are worth bearing in mind, especially by those who are intentional about marrying historic prophecies with contemporary occurrences. They are, in short, signs of the End-Times:

  • Egyptian will turn against Egyptian (Isaiah 19:2)
  • Damascus will be in ruins (Isaiah 17:1)
  • Gaza will writhe in agony (Zechariah 9:5)
  • There will be false teachers and prophets who lead people astray (2 Peter 2:1-2)
  • Earthquakes, famines, plague and pestilences will intensify (Luke 21:11)
  • People will prefer fantasy to reality, myth to Christian truths (2 Timothy 4:3-4).

Some other signs of note:

  1. The Jews have returned to their Biblical homeland, however, not all of the Jews have returned, and not to all of what was originally the Promised Land. We can expect to see more Jews returning and there may be further expansion of the current borders of Israel.
  2. The desolate land of Israel has become fertile and fruitful – Zechariah 7:14.
  3. The Gospel will be preached to all nations – Matthew 24:14. The Gospel is being preached in many nations, though not yet in all nations. It may be difficult for us to determine when full coverage has been achieved! At the same time, it is surely significant that in a matter of a few years from now the Bible, or parts of it, will have been translated into every known language.
  4. We can expect that in any communication on End-Time prophecies the message, and the messenger, will be mocked and ridiculed (2 Peter 3:3-4).
  5. Jerusalem will be seen as a problem by the whole world (Zechariah 12:2-3). Zechariah made this prophecy in about 520 BC, when Jerusalem was in ruins. Today, as foretold, Israel and Jerusalem are the focus of massive media coverage that is totally disproportionate to the size of the city or nation.
  6. Christians will be persecuted and martyred (Matthew 24:9).
  7. Many will turn away from the Christian faith (Matthew 24:10).
  8. The governance of Jerusalem will be free of Gentile involvement (Luke 21:24).
  9. The “Man of Lawlessness” (the Antichrist) will appear on the world stage. He will be seen as a great and very effective unifying world leader (Revelation 13:3-8). He will establish a seven-year covenant of peace with Israel which, after 31/2 years, he will break when he declares himself as god in the Temple in Jerusalem.
  10. A worldwide financial system will be established requiring people to register and show allegiance to the Antichrist, as a prerequisite to being able to shop and trade (Revelation 13:16-17). We hear talk today of a “new world order”, the need for a worldwide economic organisation and a world government.
  11. A 31/2 year period of desolation and despair, the “Great Tribulation”, will follow the “Abomination of Desolation” by the Antichrist in the Temple.
  12. In order for the prophecy at 11 above to be fulfilled, assuming it is not allegorical, we can expect to see the Temple rebuilt in Jerusalem.
  13. All nations will gather to fight against Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:2).
  14. Jesus will return and defeat the attacking nations at Armageddon (Zechariah 14:3-4, Revelation 16:14-16, Revelation 19:11, 19-21).
  15. The awesome realisation that Jesus is the Messiah, and all that that implies, will come to the nation of Israel in absolute certainty (Zechariah 12:9-10).
  16. Nations will be judged according to their treatment of the Jews (Joel 3:1-2).

(Annex A) CONCLUSION 

Undoubtedly, more signs could be added. However, time and space dictate a degree of selectivity. Jesus gave us pointers for the circumstances that will prevail when he returns, but makes it clear that the specific time of his coming cannot be known. It seems clear that we are well along the time line of prophetic events. Those signs that await fulfillment could happen very quickly. Reading the Bible, watching what is happening, particularly in Israel and Jerusalem, and seeking to understand the spiritual significance of unusual signs and symbols in the world around us, are all key elements in our being ready for the return of Jesus.

Faith in a Sea of Trouble – Neil Mackereth

In submitting this Neil shares details of a visual spiritual attack in the early hours of one night and precedes and concludes the email as follows, and we thank the Lord for His never-ending strong encouragement that Neil should proceed: 

“I had this on the back-burner when a demonic attack persuaded me to finish it…I have had a couple of God-incidences since and am convinced I needed to finish the attached.”

FAITH IN A SEA OF TROUBLE – Neil Mackereth

The Evil That Men Do

I am suffering from information overload! Watching, listening, reading and trying to
fathom (track and make sense of) the labyrinthian and Machiavellian machinations of
the Washington swamp, brought this quote to mind:

“Oh what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceive” (Sir Walter Scott)

When Lord?

I am also suffering from the unfulfilled (so far) expectation that truth will prevail. We
stagger from one shocking revelation of deep-state manipulation to another and yet,
nothing seems to change. The network of insiders is so interwoven and self-protecting that any “damage” is either neutralised or bypassed.

In other words, would-be honest investigators find themselves embroiled in such a web of lies, such a morass of skullduggery, that they are either too confused, too frightened, or lack the credibility (clout) to penetrate the protective layers of conspiracy; and certainly not in a way that brings any perpetrators to justice. Many see appeasement as the only option. Turmoil, misfeasance and abuse of power are by no means confined to
the USA; conspiracy, dishonesty and deception are a world-wide malaise.

Faith

Nevertheless, I know that God is in control, nothing escapes His notice and victory is
assured. Faith is the requirement of the day!

We are journeying through huge and frightening storms, and they will get worse. Are
we convinced that our boat is up to the task? Or do we believe we will be swamped?

I had been thinking about this article for several days, and had decided to shelve it.
However, in the wee small hours of Tuesday morning (27/06), I came under demonic
attack. Suffice it to say, it was intense and scary. Later that morning God showed me
a picture, more like an insight, of Christians being persecuted and misled. I had the
clear impression that I was to complete this paper.

The attacks on Christians come in many shapes and forms. The perpetrators include: liberal intellectuals and “theologians”, who seek to reinterpret scripture or disparage biblical values (false prophets); those who worship other gods; brutal tyrants, scheming demagogues and violent despots; demonic interference and those practicing witchcraft and various forms of sorcery; and those who espouse the view that there is no God.
I was shown how the present disturbances affecting Christians are analogous, albeit
now on the world stage, with the harassment, mocking and derision of Jesus and His
followers. As Jesus’ ministry progressed that harassment intensified, and culminated
in His crucifixion. Satan was certain he had succeeded. But the crucifixion wasn’t
“culmination”: Jesus rose from the dead…!!

Similarly, today the outcry against Christians and Christianity is intensifying: the
powers of darkness are in the ascendancy. Satan is manipulating the minds of men
and causing chaos and confusion on many fronts. He is cultivating a “cancel culture”
against Christians. I tell you the truth, a time is coming when Satan will be convinced that he has succeeded in neutralising Christian influence. Then Jesus will return!

Then The End Will Come

In Habakkuk’s time, understanding came later. Likewise, the current turmoil will get
much worse, but in the end (in God’s perfect timing) all will be resolved and the
fullness of the Book of Revelation will be uncovered (understood).

All biblical prophecy will be fulfilled, victory is assured, Jesus will return. We are in
the interim, somewhere on the “birth pains” time line: it has never been more vital for
us to stand firm in our faith and pray without ceasing. “Therefore put on the full
armour of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” Ephesians 6:13.

Come Lord Jesus!

Bible Update: Revelation 13 and Daniel 11 now in play

Yesterday I quickly posted items onto my Telegram channel of prophecy-related news. First, Leo Hohmann’s latest as re-blogged in the previous post:

ALSO, another item relates not only to Revelation 13 but also to Daniel 11, as well as to Apostle John’s second letter:

Beware of Antichrist Deceivers

‘7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichristLook to yourselves, that [c]we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward. Whoever [d]transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; 11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.’

NB:  The middle name is ‘Noah’ so maybe Jesus had hinted about this person?

The Coming of The Kingdom

22 Then He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 23 And they will say to you, [h]‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them. 24 For as the lightning that flashes out of one part under heaven shines to the other part under heaven, so also the Son of Man will be in His day. 25 But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man:…”   (Luke 17, NKJV, BibleGateway.com)

The Beast from the Earth

11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives [f]those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 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 killed16 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, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

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.

Conspiracy Theories Proven #1: Archbishop confirms we ARE living though Revelation 13

SEEK the Lord while He may be found and enquire as to how Chapter 13 is unfolding.

FOOTNOTE:

Earlier today, Chris Moyler writes about a certain character:

“Yuval Noah Harari is co-Founder of Sapienship, a multidisciplinary organization advocating for global responsibility whose mission is to clarify the public conversation, support the quest for solutions and focus attention on technological disruption, ecological collapse and the nuclear threat.

Harari serves as a lead advisor for Klaus Schwab, author of ‘COVID-19 / The Great Reset’ and founder of The World Economic Forum. He has been praised by notable figures such as Barack Obama, Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates.”

4 – Structure of the Book of Revelation, and conclusion

Continued from part 3:.

STRUCTURE OF THE REVELATION

 “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.  18 I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. 19 Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this.  (Rev 1:17-19 NKJV)

  • The Present:
  • chpt 1. Vision of the Son of Man, the one ascended Lord
  • chpt 2-3. Letters to seven churches (and for all churches)
  • chpt 4-5. Vision of heaven, the Lion of Judah and the Lamb
  • The Near Future:
  • chpt 6-11. Judgments, great tribulation, martyrs and two witnesses
  • chpt 12-16. Woman, child, dragon, beast 666, antichrist, false prophet
  • chpt 17-19. Fall of Babylon, Messianic judgement of Armageddon
  • THE RETURN OF ‘THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS’ 
  • The Far Future:
  • chpt 20. The Millennium, Satan rebels/defeated, Judgement, lake of fire
  • chpt 21. New heaven and new earth, the Bride, the New Jerusalem
  • chpt 22. River of Life from God’s throne, Tree of Life for healing the nations.

David Pawson explains that each future period has bad news and things get much worse, but the good news is that things will get very much better afterwards. Through it all Jesus encourages his people to ‘endure’ and ‘overcome’ until He returns.

“First, Jesus tells the churches they must deal with internal problems if they are to face external pressures. Compromise in belief of behaviour, tolerance of idolatry or immorality, weaken the Church from within. (LESSON FOR TODAY!)”

For the 2nd period He shows the worst that can happen but believers will not have to go through anything worse! “And the very worst time ahead will be at most a few years”.

Then, Jesus reveals the wonders that will follow in the 3rd period when all believers will be with Him.

CONCLUSION

On a personal note, what impresses me is the comparison of this closing book with the Bible’s first book, Genesis.

Revelation promises a full restoration not only for those who believe in God, to life with Him, but also and because of that for the earth too.

The Tree of Life is a main feature in the garden of Eden, in the beginning, but through it Satan perverted Adam and Eve’s relationship with their fatherly Creator and so they lost and fell from their glory. In the end that usurper gets his just desserts, the saved return to living in the glory of God in the New Jerusalem and the Tree’s leaves bring healing to all people, as it is written.:

But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23 The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light. 24 And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honour into it. 25 Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there). 26 And they shall bring the glory and the honour of the nations into it. 27 But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. (Revelation 21 NKJV)
