Babylon Rising Pt 2
But let’s not kid ourselves, please. Things will continue to worsen. This is the spirit of Babylon and though the original Tower of Babel was destroyed and the original city of Babylon (as well as the kingdom itself), was completely destroyed in ancient history, the ideology they were built on has never been destroyed. It has remained and Satan has continued in the spiritual realm to grow the spirit of Babylon throughout the world in order to gain control of the entire world in the final one world global order of Daniel 2.
Has God Vacated?
And so it goes from one empire to another. Following Nebuchadnezzar’s death, eventually his grandson Belshazzar (Daniel 5), took the throne. He made a huge mistake, one that appeared to be either unforgiveable to God or God simply knew the king would not repent of his wickedness. This resulted in God’s judgment using the Medes and Persians. They were upcoming while Babylon was on its way to being destroyed.
What God Wants
Recently, I had the opportunity to help a grandmother, who is a widow and raising two grandsons. Both grandsons have somewhat serious learning disabilities and the youngest one tends toward violence as well. The widow’s husband died a number of years ago and the widow lives on a very small pension of just over $800/month. The (mobile) home they were living in is coming down around them (or should I say, was?).

It Only Seems That Way
Why does it appear that in most cases, God is simply silent and/or aloof? Why does it appear as though the evil people in the world control the rest of the world and they have full stomachs and never have a need they cannot fill? But for the rest of us, we often struggle to make ends meet, we are on the receiving end of globalist schemes and from every corner, we are pressed down and often forced to do things “their” way or pay the consequences. Why doesn’t God step in sooner to right wrongs and correct evil and inaction?

Delusion’s Full Embrace
If you listen to people today who are so deceived by every lie imaginable, it is easy to understand why they believe those lies based on Paul’s words. Many of those people are almost giddy in their embrace of lies and they seem always on the edge of insanity. They can go off on anyone who holds a differing opinion, either verbally, physically or both.
Sincerity Doesn’t Cut It
I’m coming to the conclusion that God wants the same thing for all His children living today. We know we are facing difficult times and for many, this may be dire now. Daily I read from the prophecy “experts” one more thing that is creating undue hardships for many. It’s not so much “prophecy,” but simply news they’re reporting. It’s funny though how rarely do I read from many of these same people (not all!) that God has a plan for His people, that He is using these difficult times and circumstances to draw us closer to Him so that we can benefit from our relationship with Him and become an encourager to those who have not yet understood what God is doing. By the way, it’s not merely words that encourage. It’s actions.
Not Trying to Scare You…Really
It is certainly best that people decide now what they are going to do because every indication assures us that the globalists and their puppets will increase the tension and demands. Peter Hotez has essentially stated to the WHO that aggressive actions need to be taken against “anti-vaxxers.” I find it fascinating that many of us had childhood vaccinations and tetanus shots through the years, but all of a sudden when we don’t want a potentially life-altering jab, we are now classed as “anti-vaxxers.” Besides Hotez, there is Bill Gates (who essentially runs the WHO), the CDC, the FDA and the usual dimwitted politicians who are keen to set the Constitution aside and force their will on the rest of us.
Here’s What You’re Not Going to Do…
In the meantime, might I suggest that you simply do what you can do for yourself, leaving all the rest to God. If you have extra cash to be able to stock up on perishables (including vitamins and other supplements since they usually have a two-to-four year shelf life), then do that. If you cannot do that, do you really believe God will ignore you, not hear you and not provide for you? He knows your circumstances better than you do.
Abomination of Desolation?
Here Paul expressly speaks of a “man of sin/son of perdition” who would rise to power, oppose everything that is God and exalt himself instead (as Antiochus IV did). He will even do what Antiochus previously did by going into the Jewish Temple, sit inside the Holy of Holies (possibly on the Mercy Seat on top of reconstructed Ark of the Covenant), and declare to the world that he is God. Obviously, in order for this to occur, the Jewish Temple must be rebuilt during the coming Tribulation period. Antichrist will then confirm a covenant with Israel for seven years. Neither Antiochus in 167-168 BC or Roman Emperor Vespasian in AD 70 fulfilled all aspects of this prophecy. This will be fulfilled in the future.
Prophecy for Evangelism?
I cannot think of a better use of fulfilled prophecy than in evangelism, can you? This is why we need to study and know it as best we can. This is why we should be mentally prepared for the time when prophecy is fulfilled. The world will see the reality of the attempted attack on Israel led by Gog (a title, not a name), and the results of it. They will not understand exactly what just occurred. Christians will be on hand to explain it but I believe they will have a very short time to do so because of the rise of the physical Antichrist, who will redirect everyone’s attention to something else.
