The world around us is in a rapid, unstoppable transition. It has been, since the industrial revolution, the early 1900s or the early 20th century and the days leading up to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. At no time in the history of mankind has the world been more biblical than these awesome yet terrifying times in which we live. With Russia in Ukraine, illustrative of how readily they could or will lead the charge into Israel per Ezekiel the prophet, with a much stronger, nuclear armed China making overtures about the potential for invading Taiwan and simultaneously threatening the downfall of the world’s only superpower, coupled with growing worldwide disenchantment with that power’s “hegemony”, with her gluttonous existence now very much financed literally by loans on top of international loans that all know she cannot and will therefore never repay (even at a rate of millions of dollars per hour, it would take as long as 3750 years to pay off only the principle!), etc., the world has never been more primed for the kind of deadly, catastrophic engagement as that outlined by the Bible’s Old Testament prophets and its New Testament apostles. Daily, anxious eyes and trembling ears feed inquiring, informed and therefore troubled minds that question how this will all end. All know that the potential for appeasement and the easing of tensions is minimal at best. Bible students, particularly students of Bible prophecy, on the other hand, know that the will and plan of God, completely overshadows and therefore voids any possibility of a manmade solution to the problems that plague us. Thus, in full accord with Bible prophecy, not only does the nation of Israel exist, the nations at large harbor the requisite animus that drives a deep-seated loathing and an ever-increasing thirst for Jew blood. Accordingly, God promises that at some point, He will drop the gauntlet and they will go for it like hogs running to slop. Before the way can be cleared for them to act upon that craving, however, one major obstacle to the satisfaction of that literal bloodlust must be removed. Without question, the world’s increasing dissatisfaction with the most powerful military force to ever grace the sands of time, their longing to see her arrogant “hegemonic hold” in terms of sway and influence on the global stage destroyed, their rush to jettison her currency which is “fiat”, their awareness of the never-ending need to shield themselves against the very real probability that she may someday seek to force-feed or satisfy her ravenous appetites at their expense, etc., points the finger of accusation in terms of the “who” of that entity at one and only one entity!

The final addendum to the Book of Revelation explores contemporary scientific and military developments through a prophetic lens. It delves into the Sun's energy, the critical ozone layer, and man-made depletion, connecting it to end-times judgments. The episode also examines the Active Denial System as a technological parallel to prophetic events and re-examines the historical and religious roles of Rome and the papacy, including the impact of the Crusades and their severe consequences.
Mark Of The Beast & RFID People Control: The Need & The Means The idea being espoused here relative to fire from the sky, the image of the beast and now his mark is one of people control . At this point, the beast and those under him will have survived two major conflicts/wars—one global—and many catastrophes, including severe food and crippling fuel shortages, only to face yet more prevailing deep depression and deprivation due to immense, unavoidable social, economic and political unre...
HUMANOID ROBOTS, PEOPLE CONTROL/TRACKING Fire-breathing Skies: The Beast and Space Lasers An intelligent image of one called the “beast” that talks and is able to give life-changing instructions, issuing life-threatening edicts, while his “prime minister” backs him up by commanding fire from the skies; people-tracking systems that allow for precise monitoring of one’s every move, in any location, worldwide: sound far-fetched? For some living today, it might be mind-boggling to think that back of...
DANIEL 7 Daniel’s Dream Daniel is now an old man, having been in Babylonian captivity with his people for nearly 70 years. He came when he was a very young man, perhaps in his late teens, early twenties. Daniel has been a valued, and trustworthy servant of the Lord all those years, every step of the way. God has used him mightily before the arrogant, self-serving king Nebuchadnezzar , who affected the Babylonian deportation of the Jews, and is poised to do so now in the presence of the king’s co...
CHAPTER 22 A New Dawn In God’s Old Eternity Heaven-on-Earth The Pure River: Water of Life Chapter 22, Verse 1 And he showed me a pure river of Water of Life , clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. Continuing in his survey of the New Jerusalem, as led and conducted by the angel sent from God, John’s old eyes are drawn to a River of crystal-clear water, that flows directly from the Thrones of both God the Father and of God the Son. The Source of this water makes pl...
Side Bar Bride Of Christ/Wife Of The Lamb Sticks and Stones, with Streets of Gold? Is it the Body of Christ (made up of all the saints, from all the ages), or is she the city, the New Jerusalem (a literal city in Heaven)? Young Mr. K. C. Price Jr. spent several Sundays developing his thesis and proclaiming his point. It seems that Mr. Price has some serious issues, axes to grind and bones to pick, with any and all who take the position such that the bride of Christ mentioned in the Lord’s Revela...
The New Heaven And The New Earth Chapter 21, Verse 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. In keeping with God’s promise to “… make all things new… ” ( 21:5 ) and with Jesus’ promise that while His words would never depart, “ …heaven and earth will pass away… ” ( Matthew 24:35 ), John stood watching, as a New Heaven and a New Earth were unveiled. The old earth and the old heaven in/under which we now live wil...
The Second Resurrection The Great White Throne : Sinners Judged Verse 11 (see also chapter 21, verse 1 ) And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. After the sentencing of the devil, John’s focus shifted, as his attention was then drawn to The Great White Throne , and to Him who sat upon it . It is here that the fourth and last judgment, following the fourth and final resurrection (that of sin...
The First Resurrection Chapter 20, Verse 4 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. Verse 4a And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: After wit...
Of God Almighty, The Son At this juncture, another successful mission will have been accomplished; the fighting (in terms of actual battles between Creator and creatures) will have ceased, the birds (vultures and other scavengerous birds of prey) will have had their fill of whatever flesh will be left following the Lord’s Day of slaughter—while 1000 years of a mix of bliss and cold war linger in the wings. Satan’s Incarceration Chapter 20, Verse 1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having...
The Killing Field: Where Lamb and Lambs Fight like Lions The battle being set in array, the best that the beast and his forces can ever hope to accomplish having been done (it appears that, for the ‘heck of it’, they may be given the benefit of a preemptive first strike, as it were; hence, the aforementioned nuke winter!), He who was formerly slain like a lamb, as the Lamb , will then commence His duties with the fierceness of an angry Lion (from Judah), racking up huge casualties as Judge, Jury...
The Great Day of God Judgment Day Chapter 19, Verse 14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Matthew Chapter 24, Verse 27 For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Matthew 24, 28 For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together. Matthew 24, 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the...
The Marriage of the Lamb Verse 7, Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife has made herself ready. Verse 8, And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. Verse 9, And he said to me, Write, Blessed are they which are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me, These are the true sayings of God. The voices of the great mass choir begu...
Sarmatians: As with the Cimmerians and with the Scythians, so with the Sarmatians, their past comes to us sealed in a shroud of murkiness. Some light is shed on that past however, as they are first mentioned in first century AD Roman literature (referred to there as Alans?). Old Roman maps point to them and the areas of their occupation interchangeably as either Alans ( Josephus 7.4.3; 7.7.4 ) or Geloni ( Herodotus ). Ptolemaic maps are said to reference those same areas as Sarmatia. Another sou...
The Battle of Armageddon: Phase 1 THE GREAT DAY OF GOD ALMIGHTY The evil but “rifted” empire strikes back! Bowl #6: World War IV Verse 12, And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. The out-pouring of the bowl by the sixth angel , marks the beginning of the end. The last possible harvest of souls was actually completed during the first half of this, the last three point five ...
Who were they, in antiquity? Thus far then, we now know that “Magog” finds its roost today in all of the land mass known as, and now occupied by, modern Russia. Likewise we also know that Russia—as it relates to and falls within the grand scheme and plan of God—consists of two major parts or, sections separated by the Ural Mountains: 1) Western or European Russia and, 2) Siberia. That leaves open the question, who were these people during the Bible days of Ezekiel ? Who were they prior to his da...
Biosphere Demolished, Ecosystem Destroyed Beyond the Point of No Return Chapter 16, Verse 1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. Thus, then, the stage having been set, a command is issued by a great voice emanating from the Temple: “ Go out and empty the bowls filled with the anger (hot displeasure) of God upon the earth ”. Once again, where any Christian, physical representation is concer...
Commander sees 'World War III' “By NBC News Wire Services” Updated at 4:46 a.m. ET (09/25/2012) : Iran could launch a pre-emptive strike on Israel if it was sure the Jewish state were preparing to attack it , a senior commander of its elite Revolutionary Guards was quoted as saying on Sunday. Amir Ali Hajizadeh , a brigadier general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, made the comments to Iran's state-run Arabic language Al-Alam television , according to a report on the network's website. ...
The Resurrection, Rise and Reign (Daniel’s Mouthy Little Horn, aka, the Abomination of Desolation; Paul’s Son of Perdition) Advent of the Beast (Revelation Chapter 13, Verses 1 and 2) This juncture in the unfolding drama of the Apocalypse marks the halfway point in the period of seven years immediately preceding the Battle of Armageddon . This “mother-of-all” battles will usher in the return of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Jews’ Messiah for whom they long and wait. This does not, however, indicate...
The Victor has the Spoils For Israel, the future at least for a time, looks bright. If one’s interpretation of 39:10 is at least marginally accurate, it looks as if Israel will not only be marvelously benefited beyond any hurt inflicted by the advance of their mortal enemies, but, in addition to quite literally “making hay” (fuel) of all the flammable remains of weapons farmed from the aftermath of the war, they will (or may) also have free access to, and, control of all their energy resources a...
The Warning Verse 9, And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, Verse 10, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: Verse 11, And the smoke of their torment ascends up for ever and eve...
Case of the missing Church (The Rapture) (1 Thessalonians 4) It is difficult at best to say with any real certainty when or where in the eschatological timetable God will remove the church. It is not hard to imagine, however, that probably what few there are in America who remain alive will be evacuated before God signals the destruction of Babylon the Great, along with all others in a global “snatching up” of the deceased and the living. At any rate, remove it He will, be it immediately before ...
THE FIG TREE By Alvin Mitchell All prophecy, John penned in the Revelation, is about Jesus ( Rev. 19:10 —“…the Spirit of prophecy is Jesus”, his angelic, apocalyptic host informed him.). Jesus Christ is therefore Bible prophecy’s theme and chief point of focus. If this simple assertion be true then, for this reason alone, the subject and the study of Bible prophecy is tremendously elevated in the thinking of the saints, both Jew and Christian, given that it puts the genre on a par with the four ...
A Great Wonder in Heaven A Pregnant Woman Chapter 12, Verse 1, And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: This chapter opens with a pageantry of events that encapsulate the history and trauma of the nation of Israel , from God’s perspective. It is an allegory (a story told in symbols or pictures) of the complete history of the nation of the Jews, from the conception, as it was revealed to the ...
Adonai Jehovah instructs His servant, the prophet, to issue a terse reminder to Gog , the head of the chiefs of the states of Meshech and Tubal: he is to expect to be induced into conflict with His people, within the confines of Israel, after he has been lured out of the comforts of his own home in the uttermost quarters ; he is to expect a crushing humiliation, and, a devastating defeat at the hands of the Almighty Himself (as Israel will not have a friend upon whom to lean), as all his weapons...
The Beast Mortal Combat! Verse 7a, And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. Whatever their immense power, no matter the amount of misery they are allowed to inflict upon a God-less, Christ rejecting world, etc., the two witnesses will still, at the same time, be mortal men, subject to all the rules governing life and mortality. The world will have done everything that i...
The Nose-ring of ( in -)Security Without specifying why, ’70s theological and prophetic rumor-mill had it that communist Russia had been eying Israel , for some time, as a strategic point from which they could control the world . This thought , too, is most compelling when one considers that it has been said that the most convenient route for the flow of oil out of the Middle East to the rest of the world is through the land of the Jews. With two-thirds of global supplies stored in that area, as...
Book Description Judgment Day: Volume 4 The Screenplay The Book of the Revelation is not a standalone tale of the end times. That is, it was never intended to be the complete history written in advance of how God intends to bring life on earth as we know it to a close. Rather, as the totality of this study attempts to show, it is an organized saga , woven together around three fundamental themes , which are the sums of many other eschatological subthemes that must be extracted and stitched toget...
Nipped in the Bud Hereby, Solomon shattered any hope he ever had that his family line would ever host the Messiah . Although certain of his descendants were faithful, in a manner comparable to king David, Solomon’s failure was all that was necessary to void the promise, where he and his offspring were concerned. Effectively, with every opportunity in the world before him to succeed on the one hand (ostensibly, that is, given the family factor, which still could have wrecked any success on his pa...
Verse 10 , “ this is what the Lord-like-no-other, The Self-Existent One, Who exists forever (Adonai Jehovah) has to say, ‘at the time of your attack, you will proceed according to a preconceived, mischievous plan, diabolical in nature; you will talk to yourself about how you will militarily harass a land defenseless, living safely and at peace, unable to match and fend against your own military might, for the purpose of pillaging, openly robbing and plundering…’ ” Verse 14 , “ for this reason, s...
