Israel: God’s Miracle, And Proof Of His Existence
Why do we shy away from prophecy? Knowing that no man knows the hour doesn’t make it any less important. For we see the changing weather, and know a storm is coming. And we see Israel, brought from the ashes as proof that there is a God, and He is real.
Working, While Waiting & Watching
In both cases, we see that Noah and Lot were in the world. They had to deal with the trials and tribulations of dealing with evil people. Because of it, both Noah’s and Lot’s worlds were difficult. However, in neither case, was what they experienced representative of God’s wrath. In both cases, when God’s wrath poured out onto the earth, both Noah and Lot (along with their families) were kept safe, away from the destructive forces poured out by God.
Therefore Shall the Land Mourn…
Hosea 4:3 states: “Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.”
Seven Heads, Ten Horns, and the Revived Roman Empire, Pt 2
It is reasonable to conclude then, that the beast that comes out of the sea – with seven heads and four horns – essentially comes from all the previous empires that existed. Here is Revelation 13:1b. “Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names.” These seven heads really represent the previous four kingdoms of Babylon, Medo-Persian, Grecian, and Roman. Why seven heads?
Seven Heads, Ten Horns, and the Revived Roman Empire
These empires are important because of the fact that they are part of prophecy and they essentially replace one another, as one empire segues into the next. What is truly interesting here is because these empires occurred in essentially the same area of the world – which turns out was the birthplace of civilization – even though a new king or emperor came on the scene, if we stop to consider it, one empire simply folded into the next.
The Very Interesting Thing About the Last Beast of Daniel 7 and Revelation 13
But what I find most interesting is that there definitely appears to be a group of individuals deep in the shadows who have been controlling many events worldwide for decades. If true, then in essence, they are actually ruling the world now in spite of the fact that it appears that presidents and leaders of countries throughout the world are actually leading nations.
Are We in the Final Stages Before the New World Order Becomes Reality?
We need to remember that God’s plans must come to fruition. Part of His plans allow Satan to rule over the world through his spiritual son (just prior to the return of Jesus), the Antichrist. If you stop to consider it, this will be the fulfillment (or at least the last attempt) of Satan to bring his own promises of eons ago to pass when he said he would “raise [his] throne above the stars of God, And [would] sit on the mount of assembly In the recesses of the north,” (Isaiah 14:13). “Stars of God” is most likely a reference to the angelic realm, as also used in the book of Job.
Man’s Inhumanity to Man Continues Seemingly Unchecked
As we read through Revelation or other books of the Bible that detail the end times and how bad they will become, it appears to grow in intensity and occurrence until Jesus actually returns. I know that historically, there have been times when things are dark. The difference in those situations and the last days has to do with the fact that things will be fully global. These are the times which are here now, I believe.
Islam Makes Itself Continually Harder to Respect and Appreciate
But I guess this does not apply to Muslims. They are allowed to pretty much do whatever they want to do and the federal government says it’s fine. The notice from the TSA was issued July 2nd. It’s almost as if the government is saying that this is what we may well see while traveling and we’d better not interfere.
Bill Clinton Opens Mouth and Out Comes Hubris
Muslims in Israel have freedom and they know it. The Muslims there – like Muslims in other countries surrounding Israel – are largely Arab. An Arab is an Arab. There is no such thing as Palestinian Arab. That individual simply does not exist. It is a created term, one used as propaganda.
