It’s possible that “Things you didn’t know about the second coming of Christ, but will soon discover” might have been a more appropriate title for this article. Sadly, a significant number of people in the United States and other parts of the globe are perplexed by the concept of prophecy, and many believe that it is a chaotic collection of ambiguous warnings about difficult times in the not too distant future. There have been far too many people who have offered erroneous dates, such as Harold Camping, and prophecy enthusiasts by the hundreds have stepped in and determined that prophetic passages are up to wild conjecture and individual interpretations, which is not the case. “Before anything else, it is important to note that no prophecy in the Bible may be interpreted in a manner that is personal.” It is written in 2 Peter 1:20. What is behind all of this general foolishness is the fact that A&E and the History Channel have shows on Nostradamus, Jeanne Dixon, Edgar Cayce, and other individuals. These programs place these individuals in the same category as biblical prophesies, which is a grave error. Prophecy is the subject of almost one fourth of the message that is found in the Bible; nonetheless, not a single word of it is on the level of simple prognostication. All of the prophecies in the Bible are already written down. In light of this, it is certainly not an exaggeration to assert that the majority of people living in our planet now are “prophecy challenged.” When I come across prophetic verses that have been misinterpreted and twisted out of shape, this writer will respond to a blog article. However, the essence of my mission is to declare, and not to dispute. There are times when it is necessary to just confront the absurdity. One of the most prominent internet publishers recently published an article in which they proposed the concept that Mecca is the city that is referred to as Babylon in the book of Revelation. If the individual who made the proclamation did not also advocate for the idea that the antichrist must be a Muslim, then it would seem to be a possibility rather than a possibility. Since the book of Revelation makes it abundantly clear that the kingdom of the antichrist despises the whore, which is the city of Babylon, and as a consequence destroys her, (Revelation 17:6), what we have here is an instance of a Muslim destroying the location that is considered to be the most significant to Muslims all over the world. What is the problem with this narrative? After that, there are many who believe that the United States of America is the big Babylon. Considering that Babylo is referred to as a “city” in the Bible (Revelation 18:10), and that it is said that the blood of saints and martyrs was discovered within it, and that it is also referred to as the “City of Seven Mountains” in the Bible (Revelation 17:9), it is difficult to believe that this could be the United States of America. Rome is the only city in the world that is commonly acknowledged as the metropolitan area that encompasses seven mountains. Rome is considered by the majority of people throughout the globe to be the geocentric capital of Christendom, despite the fact that millions of Christians do not acknowledge the authority of the Pope at all. The true antichrist is a political and military genius who is fueled by the deity of this world, Satan, and is imbued with a deep-seated hate for both God and all of Christendom. When it comes to demolishing what is considered to be the capital of Christianity, isn’t he the most suitable candidate? Oddly, bloggers who are given to specious speculations about revelation always seem to miss the most serious warning in the book of Revelation, in fact, it is the most serious warning in the entire bible pertaining to foolish and extravagant interpretations that require removal or additions to any part of scripture. “For I testify to every man who hears the words of the prophecy that is written in this book, saying that if any man should add to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are recorded in this book: And if any individual were to remove anything from the words that are written in the book of this prophecy, God would remove that person’s portion from the book of life, as well as from the holy city and from the things that are recorded in this book. (Revelation 22:18. 19) God, who delivered these words to John on the Isle of Patmos, was not tested by anything, and he is not challenged by anything at this time. Those who are challenged in their prophetic abilities may also be questioned in their geography. Knowing that the one who hung the stars in heaven is aware of the distinction between a city and a country allows us to have a peaceful night’s sleep. The sky is falling, and the third world war is about to break out. The concept that the antichrist must lead the globe into the much-feared World War III is yet another regretful warble that may be found in the warped tweets that surround the second coming. Surprisingly, there will not be a third conflict on the international stage. This is not a global war, in which countries band together to fight against one other in a single catastrophic conflict with the goal of bringing about the end of the planet itself. Although the next war may be the ultimate battle, it will not be the one that brings about the end of the world, nor will it be referred to as World War III; rather, it will be known as the Battle of Armageddon. Words of Revelation 16:13-16 Only a select few people are aware of the astounding reality that the forces that are participating in the Battle of Armageddon will not engage in any kind of conflict with one another. They have assembled on the vast fields of Esdraelon in preparation for a war against the King of Kings and Lord of Lords who is in the process of returning. They are going to suffer a humiliating loss. Revelation 19:19 Regardless of all of this, the world does not yet come to an end. On the contrary, it becomes the realm of the one that our world and our country, which is characterized by its deliberate defiance, seems to desire to be hushed, eliminated, and cast into the ash heap of history. When speaking through the prophet David, the Lord declared, “If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.” How foolish we must seem to the one who spoke through the prophet David. (Psalm 50:12) Don’t be fooled into thinking that those who believe in prophecy are naive; we are aware that the antichrist will seem to be successful in all he does, but it is precisely his success that will bring about the return of Christ to the world and the tumultuous history of man. He pushes the envelope to its absolute limit, and God finally closes it to the point of no return. While the Antichrist is slaying his thousands, God is resurrecting hundreds of millions of people. The prophet Daniel asserts that the people of God will be “weared out” by the antichrist. It is Dan 7:25. Near the very end of his brief reign as the world’s last and worst dictator, he will simply execute all those individuals who refuse to participate in his brand-new economic system, which he presents as the very salvation of the planet. He will do this in order to conclude his brief term. “And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were BEHEADED for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.” Revelation 20:4 The exact souls that the antichrist destroys come back with Christ, alive, and are given the whole world as their inheritance after they have returned. In the Battle of Armageddon, they are there, and they will reign with him for a thousand years, until the beginning of eternity, when a new heaven and a new earth will be created. (Revelation 19:12-25) Men have been laughing at the resurrection of Jesus Christ for more than twenty centuries, but they have no idea that this is only the beginning of all that is to come. The final scoffer will be silenced at the second coming of Christ, when all those who believed in God and his Christ will be seen alive and well – in the presence of their King. This happening will take place when the second coming of Christ takes place. Jerusalem will not be able to get any nuclear weapons, and Israel will emerge victorious. The concern that Iran or any other country that is seen to be a renegade Muslim nation is on the verge of developing a nuclear weapon and using it against Israel is a topic of debate all around the globe. Again, if you are one of the people who are experiencing prophetic challenges, you are undoubtedly exhausted, at least in part, by this apprehension, which is reinforced on a daily basis by the upheavals and threats that come from Israel’s numerous adversaries. In the end, Jesus Christ fulfills his promise to come not only as he went – but he arrives in the very same place from which he departed, the Mount of Olives, which is located just 2.2 miles outside of the Old City of Jerusalem. Prophecy depicts Israel as going through a number of difficulties, some of which are very severe. Nothing radioactive has been able to remove this location off the map, and Christ himself has made his way there in all the grandeur of God. This is the place where Jesus often prayed. Upon his return, he causes the mountain to split, but he does not do any harm to the city. It is written that “and his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east,” and that “the mount of Olives shall cleave in the middle thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it shall remove toward the south.” (The 14th of Zechariah) Even in this day and age, when we are using phrases such as “superpowers” and “Muslim threats” to characterize the blazing disputes between countries, it is simple to see why God is not concerned and why his word urges us not to be concerned more than 88 times. According to the Bible, “Behold, the nations are like a drop in a bucket, and they are tallied as the little dust of the balance.” (1 Samuel 40:15a) The homosexuality and all other perversions of the Last Day are not cultural; rather, they are prophetic. To those who are prophetically literate, it does not make much of a difference whether you believe that the argument that “we are born this way” is worthy of being brought up or if you just do not believe that the growth in sexual immorality is a significant issue. According to the scriptures (Ro 1: 1f and 2 Timothy 3: 1-5), the increase in licentious activities is a prominent indicator of the coming of antichrist and the end of the world. This is verified in the scriptures. The great King Solomon is credited with being the first person to address the art of self-justification. He remarked, “Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.” However, mankind have had twenty centuries to develop the art of self-justification. (Pr 21: 2) (2) At this point, we may also consider the possibility that everything is due to a particular gene, the environment, poverty, our parents, or a terrible little run-in with another person that has left us permanently scarred and unable to live a regular life. No matter what name they go by, excuses are still a kind of self-justification, and they will have very little impact on the result of a person’s life when the judgment is handed down. The idea that cultural shifts are more important than the rules and demands of a holy God is not only the most feeble justification in the annals of human history, but it is also an essential element in the predictions that pertain to the latter days. While it is true that when culture and religion come into conflict with one another, the latter invariably loses ground, it is also true that when culture and prophesy come into contact with one another, the former is reduced to dust. The Apostle Paul concludes his condemnation of the homosexual lifestyle by stating, “We will have no excuse!” This is the most scathing reprimand against homosexuality that can be found in the whole Bible. For the invisible things that he has been doing from the beginning of the world are now plainly apparent, and they are comprehended by the things that have been produced, including his everlasting power and the Godhead; this means that they are immune to any kind of justification. Ro 1:20 (Ro 1) This would, of course, include President Obama, who, when he hastily disregarded the whole of Romans chapter one as an obscure text that should not be taken too seriously, did not note that the paragraph in question was found in Romans 2:18 and 19.
