So-called “Peaceful” Islam is Anything But…
The goal of Islam is world domination and it does not matter that not all Muslims are considered “radicals.” The radicals will win out because as Brigitte Gabriel says, the silent majority is irrelevant. Always has been and always will be. The silent majority never does anything to stop atrocities. This is true not just within Islam, but within society in general.
What is the Coming Tribulation All About? Part 4
Antichrist makes the covenant because of his ulterior motives. Halfway through the Tribulation period, he will completely defile the Jewish Temple (as Antiochus did in 168 BC; cf. Matthew 24), making it completely unsuitable for worship (as was the case following Antiochus’ defilement). Antichrist will do what Paul tells his Thessalonian readers (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4), “the man of lawlessness…who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.”
What is the Coming Tribulation All About? Part 3
I fully believe that this coming seven-year period is a time when God will pour out His wrath onto this world. I explained this in Part 1. As another proof of this, please note that Revelation 5 depicts a scene in heaven where a seven-sealed scroll is introduced. This scroll appears to be something special and at first, it looks like no one is found worthy to open it. John the apostle, who witnesses this scene, breaks down into tears because all seemed hopeless.
What is the Coming Tribulation All About? Part 2
If the brokering of a covenant between Israel and the surrounding Arab nations is the event that starts the Tribulation, we need to discuss what happens during the Tribulation and fortunately for us, the Bible has it outlined for us neatly. Though we cannot determine exactly how much time transpires between each seal, trumpet, and bowl during the Tribulation, we can generally determine the order of events.
What is the Coming Tribulation All About? Part 1
The word “tribulation” is used in Scripture in several ways. First, it is used in a general way to note that life is often replete with difficulties (tribulations) that vex us, that try our faith. If allowed, these seasons of tribulation will cause us to grow in our faith. They are ordained by God and it is our job to humble ourselves under His mighty hand so that in due time He will lift us up (cf. 1 Peter 5:6).
America as a Nation Cannot Take Much More…
But if these scandals bother you and the fact that nothing aside from talking (and in some cases, ranting) has taken place, don’t be alarmed. If you look in the Congressional record, situations like this have occurred since before the time of Woodrow Wilson. Scandals with accompanying big talk and bigger committees looking into things. After all the talk, the huffing and puffing, and the posturing, rarely was anyone brought up on any charges of any kind. Things just petered out so it’s not a modern day phenomenon. It’s apparently simply the way Congress works.
Where Will This New Islamic Caliphate Lead?
What is interesting about the fourth empire is how it morphed over time. It began as a fairly cohesive unit, but then broke into an eastern and western “leg.” Each leg then went through several changes as we travel down to the feet and toes. All of this is a matter of history.
However, the ten kings (toes) have not come to the fore yet in all of history, so we can rightly assume that this is still yet future. Many portions of Scripture attest to this fact.
Will You Succumb to the Coming Great Deception? A Couple More Points
Again, what is the reason God sends the deluding influence? It is because they have absolutely no love for the truth. They prefer to believe lies. It’s ironic that people who claim to be left of center do the same thing. They prefer to believe their lies. Yet, in all biblical imagery, those on the left are the losers, not the victors. In the occult, the phrase “the left-hand path” is used to describe those who follow after Lucifer and to them this is the preferred path because by it they believe they will gain eternal life through esoteric knowledge (gnosis). Whether it’s a leftist politically or within the realm of religion, clearly, being a leftist is not the correct side. They are even referred to as “goats” by Jesus Himself.
Iraq Melts Down and Media Pretty Much Ignores It
The terrible tragedy we call the Iraq War that began with Bush and ultimately claimed the lives of roughly 4,500 service men and women will be all for nothing if things continue unchecked. Now though, multitudes of volunteers are positioning themselves in Baghdad to ward off the oncoming insurgency. If a conflict occurs in Baghdad between the Sunni and Shia, much more blood will be shed.
WHAT is Coming Will Be Terrible – WHEN It’s Coming is Unknown
The snow that has settled peacefully on the side of a mountain looks serene and beautiful. Unknown to most of us though is the fact that if it continues to snow, with snow being added to what is already on the ground, an avalanche will occur. No one knows which snowflake will trigger it, but an economic avalanche will take place and then what was beautiful becomes deadly in a matter of seconds, with no warning at all.
