Title: Critical Crucial Times: Are You Prepared Spiritually and Physically
1Critical Crucial TimesAre You Prepared
Spiritually and Physically
- Some Trends that are Shaping our World
2When Things Get Bad Repentance?
- We all hope that people we know will turn and
repent when things get bad enough. One has to
ask, how bad is bad enough? - No evidence of repentance when things get bad.
3Matthew 251-3
- 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened
unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and
went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of
them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They
that were foolish took their lamps, and took no
oil with them (Matthew 251-3 AV)
4Matthew 244-7
- 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with
their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they
all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there
was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh go
ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins
arose, and trimmed their lamps. (Matthew 254-7
AV)
5Matthew 258-10
- 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us
of your oil for our lamps are gone out. 9 But
the wise answered, saying, Not so lest there
be not enough for us and you but go ye rather to
them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And
while they went to buy, the bridegroom came and
they that were ready went in with him to the
marriage and the door was shut.
6Matthew 2511-13
- 11 Afterward came also the other virgins,
saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he
answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know
you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither
the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man
cometh. (Matthew 258-13 AV)
7Revelation 918-19
- 18 By these three was the third part of men
killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the
brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 19
For their power is in their mouth, and in their
tails for their tails were like unto serpents,
and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
(Revelation 918-19 AV)
8Revelation 920-21
- 20 And the rest of the men which were not
killed by these plagues yet repented not of the
works of their hands, that they should not
worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver,
and brass, and stone, and of wood which neither
can see, nor hear, nor walk 21 Neither repented
they of their murders, nor of their sorceries,
nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
(Revelation 920-21 AV)
9Discerning the Times
- So what about you? Are you discerning the times?
Or will you turn a deaf ear? - God says to all of us today He who has an ear
to hear, let him hear.
10Trends and Bible Prophecy
- How do the trends of the day reflect prophecies
for the end times? - 32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree When
his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves,
ye know that summer is nigh 33 So likewise ye,
when ye shall see all these things, know that it
is near, even at the doors. 34 Verily I say
unto you, This generation shall not pass, till
all these things be fulfilled. (Matthew 2432-34
AV)
11Specific Purpose Statement
- Encourage you to research all of these trends.
All you have to do is to write down the key
titles and/or words, search the Bible, and surf
the net. You will find numerous scriptures, news
items, articles, editorials and blogs on nearly
all of the major topics we mention here today.
12The Disciples Questions
- 1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the
temple and his disciples came to him for to
shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus
said unto them, See ye not all these things?
verily I say unto you, There shall not be left
here one stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of
Olives, the disciples came unto him privately,
saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and
what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of
the end of the world? (Matthew 241-3 AV)
13Christ Warns of Great Deceptionand Gives the
Signs
- False Christs
- Wars and Rumors of War
- Nation against nation
- Famines, Pestilences, Earthquakes
14Drought and Famine
- The countries that make up two thirds of the
worlds agricultural output are experiencing
drought conditions. Whether you watch a drought
map of China, Australia, Africa, South America,
or the US, the scene will be the same misery,
ruined crops, and dying cattle.
15(No Transcript)
16China
- The drought in Northern China, the worst in 50
years, is worsening, and summer harvest is now
threatened. The area of affected crops has
expanded to 161 million mu (26.5 million acres)
(was 141 million last week), and 4.37 million
people and 2.1 million livestock are facing
drinking water shortage. The scarcity of rain in
some parts of the north and central provinces is
the worst in recorded history.
17Australia
- Australia has been experiencing an unrelenting
drought since 2004, and 41 percent of Australia's
agriculture continues to suffer from the worst
drought in 117 years of record-keeping. The
drought has been so severe that rivers stopped
flowing, lakes turned toxic, and farmers
abandoned their land in frustration.
18California
- California is facing its worst drought in
recorded history. The drought is predicted to be
the most severe in modern times, worse than those
in 1977 and 1991. Thousands of acres of row crops
already have been fallowed, with more to follow.
The snowpack in the Northern Sierra, home to some
of the state's most important reservoirs, proved
to be just 49 percent of average. Governor
Schwarzenegger has declared a state of emergency.
19Texas
- The Texan drought is reaching historic
proportion. Dry conditions near Austin and San
Antonio have been exceeded only once beforethe
drought of 1917-18. 88 percent of Texas is
experiencing abnormally dry conditions, and 18
percent of the state is in either extreme or
exceptional drought conditions. The drought areas
have been expanding almost every month.
Conditions in Texas are so bad cattle are keeling
over in parched pastures and dying.
20Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina
- This region has been suffering from a worsening
two year drought. Augusta, Georgias rainfall
deficit is already approaching 2 inches so far in
2009, with January being the driest since 1989.
21Florida
- Florida has been hard hit by winter drought,
damaging crops, and half of the state is in some
level of a drought.
22Argentina
- The worst drought in half a century has turned
Argentina's once-fertile soil to dust and pushed
the country into a state of emergency. Cow
carcasses litter the prairie fields, and
sun-scorched soy plants wither under the South
American summer sun. Argentina's food production
is set to go down a minimum of 50 percent, maybe
more.
23Brazil
- Brazil has cut its outlook for the crops and
will do so again after assessing damage to plants
from desiccation in drought-stricken regions.
Brazil is the world's second-biggest exporter of
soybeans and third-largest for corn.
24Horn of Africa
- Lack of water to grow plants, and the declining
soil fertility across Africa is exacerbating
drought-related crop losses. Africa faces food
shortages and famine. Food production across the
Horn of Africa has suffered because of the lack
of rainfall. Also, half the agricultural soil has
lost necessary nutrients.
25Middle East
- The Middle East and Central Asia are suffering
from the worst droughts in recent history, and
food grain production has dropped to some of the
lowest levels in decades. Total wheat production
in the wider drought-affected region is currently
estimated to have declined by at least 22 percent
in 2009. Major reservoirs in Turkey, Iran, Iraq,
and Syria are all at low levels requiring
restrictions on usage. Given the severity of crop
losses in the region, a major shortage of
planting seed for the 2010 crop is expected.
26Global Food Supply
- Global Food Supply Near the Breaking PointBy
Stephen LeahyThe world is now eating more food
than farmers grow, pushing global grain stocks to
their lowest level in 30 years. Rising
population, water shortages, climate change, and
the growing costs of fossil fuel-based
fertilizers point to a calamitous shortfall in
the world's grain supplies in the near
future.Thirty years ago, the oceans were
teeming with fish, but today more people rely on
farmers to produce their food than ever before.
27Other Factors Leading toFood Shortage
- Lack of credit prevents farmers from buying seed
and fertilizer - Commodity prices too low to off set inflation
- Food stockpiles are already dangerously low
- Food production worldwide will fall 20 to 40
percent in 2009
28Earthquakes
- EARTHQUAKES (Mag. gt 6.99)
- 1863 to 1900 (38 yrs inclusive) 12
- 1901 to 1938 (38 yrs inclusive) 53
- 1939 to 1976 (38 yrs inclusive) 71
- 1977 to 2014 (38 yrs inclusive) 136 as of January
2009 (predict 180 by 2014.)
29Bible Prophecy Leadership
- As for my people, children are their
oppressors, and women rule over them. O my
people, they which lead thee cause thee to err,
and destroy the way of thy paths. (Isaiah 312
AV)
30Will You Stand in the Gap?
- 30 And I sought for a man among them, that
should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap
before me for the land, that I should not destroy
it but I found none. 31 Therefore have I poured
out mine indignation upon them I have consumed
them with the fire of my wrath their own way
have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the
Lord GOD. (Ezekiel 2230-31 AV)
31Your Calling
- Have you come to the kingdom for such a time as
this?
32Americans top 10 heroes
- 1.Barack Obama 6.Abraham Lincoln
- 2.Jesus Christ 7.John McCain
- 3.Martin Luther King 8.John F. Kennedy
- 4.Ronald Reagan 9.Chesley Sullenberger
- 5.George W. Bush 10.Mother Teresa
- Chicago, February 20 (ANI) The online survey
involved 2,634 US adults, reports the Chicago
Sun-Times.
33Top Ten Heroes in 2001
- In a Harris Poll conducted in 2001, Jesus Christ
was the hero mentioned most often, followed by
Martin Luther King, Colin Powell, John F. Kennedy
and Mother Teresa.
34World Looks to Obama for Leadership
- Some think that the administration of 44th
President might set final stage for the New
World. - "Henry Kissinger Has Proclaimed That Obama Is
Primed To 'Create a New World Order'!"
35UKs PM Brown Obama to Save Worlds Economy
- GORDON BROWN hopes to forge a partnership with
President Barack Obama in Washington this week,
to call for a global new deal to lift the world
out of recession. - Brown is under pressure to persuade American
political leaders to sign up to bold aims for the
G20 summit of industrial and leading developing
nations, which is to be held in London next
month.
36Brown Obama
37Michelle Obama Sarah Brown
38President Obama Gives PM Brown 25 DVDs
- As he headed back home from Washington, Gordon
Brown must have rummaged through his party bag
with disappointment. - Because all he got was a set of DVDs. Barack
Obama, the leader of the world's richest country,
gave the Prime Minister a box set of 25 classic
American films - a gift about as exciting as a
pair of socks.
39Browns Gift to Obama
- The Prime Minister gave Mr. Obama an ornamental
pen holder made from the timbers of the Victorian
anti-slave ship HMS Gannet.
40Brown Obama Meeting
41Economic crisis threatens the idea of one Europe
- The leaders of the European Union gathered
Sunday in Brussels for an emergency summit
meeting designed to tamp down the centrifugal
forces unleashed by the global economic crisis
that threaten to spin the bloc - and its single
currency - apart.
42Europes Bank Shortage
- Europes banks face a 2 trillion dollar shortage
- European banks face a US dollar funding gap of
almost 2 trillion as a result of aggressive
expansion around the world and may have
difficulties rolling over debts, according to a
report by the Bank for International Settlements.
43EU not a Nation
- The European Union is not a country, and the deep
global contraction is stimulating nationalism,
not consensus. - With uncertain leadership and few powerful
collective institutions, the union is struggling
with the strains this economic crisis has
inevitably produced among 27 different countries
with different economic histories. The
traditional concept of "solidarity," of one for
all, is being undermined by protectionist
pressures from political leaders with national
constituencies and agendas.
44New 'Iron Curtain' will split EU's Rich and Poor
- Eastern European countries gave an apocalyptic
warning yesterday of hordes of unemployed workers
heading west as a new Iron Curtain divides rich
from poor inside Europe. - Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall,
Western leaders were told yesterday that five
million jobs could be lost in the new European
Union countries of the East unless radical action
were taken to bail them out
45US INDEBTNESS to CHINA
- American capitalism has been the worlds biggest
debtor for more than two decades. Its biggest
lender is China . The size of the figures are
important. China s almost 2,000 bn in foreign
exchange reserves are the worlds largest. Much
of these reserves are being directed to the
purchase of U S Treasuries. According to the
estimates of Brad Selser the real figure is
nearer 2,300bn.. or equivalent to 1,600 for
every Chinese citizen.
46USs Chinas Symbiotic Relationship
- Chinese misgivings are present but they have
made a pact with the devil and can do little to
alter this state of affairs. Except for US
Treasuries what can you hold asks Luo Ping, a
director-general at the China Banking Regulatory
Commission. You dont hold Japanese government
bonds or UK bonds. US Treasuries are the safe
haven. For everyone, including China, it is the
only option. This in my view is the tragedy of
Chinas power elite presiding over a capitalist
economy that has shed all pretences of being
socialist.
47Judgment
- The stranger that is within you shall get up
above you very high and you shall come down very
low. He shall lend to thee, and you shall not
lend to him he shall be the head, and you shall
be the tail. (Deuteronomy 2843-44 )
48Judgment
- Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee,
and shall pursue you, and overtake you, till you
be destroyed because thou hearkens not unto the
voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his
commandments and his statutes which he commanded
you 46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign
and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
(Deuteronomy 2845-46 )
49World Leaders Call for World UnityReturn to Babel
- When times become harder and challenges greater
that across the world countries must show vision,
leadership and courage and, while we can do a
great deal nationally, we can do even more
working together internationally. - So now is the time for leaders of every country
in the world to work together to agree the action
that will see us through the current crisis and
ensure we come out stronger.
50Strategies for Developing New World Order
- 1 Create a World food bank, 2 Provide for
international control of all sources and
supplies, 3 Internationalize commodity markets,
4 Establish international control over the
wealth of the oceans and deep seabeds, 5 Provide
for international control of the "weather at
human command",
51NWO Strategies Continued
- 6 Rewrite the rules of trade and investment, 7
Create a world currency, 8 Create a world police
to "keep the peace when is threatened and restore
the peace when it is broken," and9 Provide
special programs to teach the benefits of the New
Order in each of six categories of American
institutions, namely business, corporations,
labor unions, nonprofit enterprises,
communications media, educational systems and
government agencies.
52A NWO Plan
- Representatives of the United States and the
European Union signed a new "transatlantic
economic partnership" at a recent summit in
Washington DC. Ms. Angela Merkel, president of
the European Union, and George Bush, president of
the Untied States, agreed to set up an "economic
council" to move ahead with regulatory
convergence in some 40 areas, including
intellectual property, financial services,
business takeovers and open skies -- the ability
to fly to airports anywhere in Europe and America
without the need for passports or visas.
53Bush Merkel
54CFR Advocate International Currency
- In a recent issue of Foreign Affairs magazine (a
CFR publication), Benn Steil, director of
international economics at the Council of Foreign
Relations (CFR) advocated the globalization of
all currencies. In his article entitled, "The End
of National Currency," he said, "The right course
is not to return to a mythical past of monetary
sovereignty, with governments controlling local
interest and exchange rates in blissful ignorance
of the rest of the world.
55International Currency Continued
- Governments must let go of the fatal notion that
nationhood requires them to make and control the
money used in their territory. - He continued, "In order to globalize safely,
countries should abandon monetary nationalism and
abolish unwanted currencies, the source of much
of todays instability. Monetary nationalism is
simply incompatible with globalism.
56Club of Rome PromotesEuropean Union
- Founded in 1968, the Club of Rome is responsible
for todays United Europe. Its 1972 report, The
Limits of Growth, served as blueprint for this
gutsy new political, economic, and military
union. As noted above the Club of Rome has
divided the world into ten political-economic
regions referred to as kingdoms.
57NWO Target Date
- Some are further along than others, but 2010
appears to be an achievable goal for the
emergence of world government.
58The Ten Regions
- Region 1 North AmericaRegion 2 European Union
- Western EuropeRegion 3 JapanRegion 4
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Israel and
Pacific IslandsRegion 5 Eastern Europe,
including RussiaRegion 6 Latin America -
Central and South AmericaRegion 7 North Africa
and the Middle East (Moslems)Region 8 Central
AfricaRegion 9 Central and Southeast
AsiaRegion 10 China
59Constitution for the Federation of Earth
- Adopted by twenty-five countries at the second
session of the World Constituent Assembly, the
1977 Constitution for the Federation of Earth
proposes an administrative structure of twenty
world electoral and administrative regions with
ten mega-regions.
60Moral Crisis
- 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall
also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as
in the days that were before the flood they were
eating and drinking, marrying and giving in
marriage, until the day that Noah entered into
the ark, (Matthew 2437-38 AV)
61Prison USA
- WASHINGTON (Reuters) - One in every 31 U.S.
adults is in the corrections system, which
includes jail, prison, probation and supervision,
more than double the rate of a quarter century
ago, according to a report released on Monday by
the Pew Center on the States.
62Gay Agenda
- Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not
inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived
neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of
themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
(1 Corinthians 69-10 A)
63Gays Seek Normalization
- Pat Buchanan writes In its relentless drive to
overthrow the moral code that has guided Western
civilization since Constantine, the homosexual
lobby has moved from triumph to triumph in a few
years. And what would constitute total victory
for "gay values" over traditional
values?Answer Acceptance by a majority of
Americans of the idea that homosexual relations
are as natural, normal and moral as those between
a man and his wife, and the extension of the full
rights of married couples to homosexual unions.
64Gays Seek Freedom WhilePreaching Conformity
- "In a free society, everyone will be gay,"
writes Allen Young, a pioneer of the Gay
Liberation Movement. (John D'Emilio, Intimate
Matters A History of Sexuality in America,
p.322) - The gay-feminists have waged their war with
impunity by asserting their victim status.
Heterosexuals can't even defend their own
sexuality for fear of accusations of "homophobia"
and "sexism." These days anyone who does not want
to be gay is labeled homophobic. -
65Global Financial Crisis
- KINGSTON, NY, 2, March 2009 - The Trends
Research Institute forecast "The Greatest
Depression" ever, well before Wall Street or
Washington would acknowledge recession, is upon
us. - There will be no turn around in the second
quarter of 2009 or 2010 or 2011 America and much
of the world has entered "The Greatest
Depression."
66Celente Forecasts
- Expect massive bank failures, runs on banks, and
bank holidays. Even if deposits are FDIC
insured, quick access to money is by no means
assured. At minimum, have reserves on hand for
emergencies. -
- Trendpost When the ship is sinking there are
very few options Life boats, life rafts, life
preservers and for the late to act, possibly a
few pieces of floating debris to cling to.
67Cash CrisisBanks Hoard Stimulus Funds
- He who owns the gold makes the rules.
- Most of the worlds currencies are not backed by
gold. - So he who controls the currency supply makes the
rules. - In the US the Federal Reserve controls the money
supply.
68The Usury Game
- The US treasury prints treasury notes for the
Federal Reserve and then the government borrows
the treasury notes from the Federal Reserve. - Then the US government sells their debt in the
form of bonds to other countries. - China and Japan hold billions and billions in US
paper currencies.
69God Condemns Usury
- Exodus 2225 If thou lend money to any of my
people that is poor by thee, you shall not be to
him as an usurer, neither shall you lay upon him
usury. - Leviticus 2536 Take you no usury of him, or
increase but fear thy God that thy brother may
live with thee. - Leviticus 2537 You shall not give him thy money
upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase
70Financial Collapse?
- If the US economy totally collapses so do the
economies of other nations. - Likewise if the economies of major nations
collapse so does the economy of the US - It is a GLOBAL ECONOMY.
71Money Flow Critical to Worlds Economy
- The work force, factories, natural resources are
the same as before the financial crisis. - But because credit, and or money supply, has
been shut down the results are loss of jobs,
decreased production, loss of profits,
bankruptcies, ad-infinitum.
72Boston Tea PartiesAround the World
- People around the globe are organizing
demonstrations and revolts against governments,
banks and corporations.
73Bible Prophecy and End Time Cry of Laborers
- Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for
your miseries that shall come upon you. 2 Your
riches are corrupted, and your garments are
motheaten. 3 Your gold and silver is cankered
and the rust of them shall be a witness against
you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye
have heaped treasure together for the last days.
(James 51-3)
74Cry of Laborers Continued
- 4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have
reaped down your fields, which is of you kept
back by fraud, crieth and the cries of them
which have reaped are entered into the ears of
the Lord of sabaoth. 5 Ye have lived in pleasure
on the earth, and been wanton ye have nourished
your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. 6 Ye have
condemned and killed the just and he doth
not resist you. (James 54-6 AV)
75Cry of Laborers Continued
- 7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the
coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman
waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and
hath long patience for it, until he receive the
early and latter rain. 8 Be ye also patient
stablish your hearts for the coming of the Lord
draweth nigh. 9 Grudge not one against another,
brethren, lest ye be condemned behold, the judge
standeth before the door. (James 57-9 AV)
76Cry of Laborers Continued
- 10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have
spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of
suffering affliction, and of patience. 11 Behold,
we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard
of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of
the Lord that the Lord is very pitiful, and of
tender mercy.
77Obama and AhmadinejadForbes - Oct 26, 2008
- Is Barack Obama the promised warrior coming to
help the Hidden Imam of Shiite Muslims conquer
the world? - The question has made the rounds in Iran since
last month, when a pro-government Web site
published a Hadith (or tradition) from a Shiite
text of the 17th century. The tradition comes
from Bahar al-Anvar (meaning Oceans of Light) by
Mullah Majlisi, a magnum opus in 132 volumes and
the basis of modern Shiite Islam.
78Continued
- According to the tradition, Imam Ali Ibn
Abi-Talib (the prophets cousin and son-in-law)
prophesied that at the End of Times and just
before the return of the Mahdi, the Ultimate
Saviour, a tall black man will assume the reins
of government in the West. Commanding the
strongest army on earth, the new ruler in the
West will carry a clear sign from the third
imam, whose name was Hussein Ibn Ali. The
tradition concludes Shiites should have no
doubt that he is with us.
79Continued
- In a curious coincidence Obamas first and
second namesBarack Husseinmean the blessing of
Hussein in Arabic and Persian. His family name,
Obama, written in the Persian alphabet, reads O
Ba Ma, which means he is with us, the magic
formula in Majlisis tradition.
80Continued
- Mystical reasons aside, the Khomeinist
establishment sees Obamas rise as another sign
of the Wests decline and the triumph of Islam.
Obamas promise to seek unconditional talks with
the Islamic Republic is cited as a sign that the
U.S. is ready to admit defeat.
81Continued
- Obama has also promised to attend a summit of
the Organization of the Islamic Conference within
the first 100 days of his presidency. Such a move
would please the mullahs, who have always
demanded that Islam be treated differently, and
that Muslim nations act as a bloc in dealings
with Infidel nations.
82Iran Vows to Destroy Israel
- Ahmadinejad Israel a stinking corpse
- Ahmadinejad Israel is about to die
- Ahmadinejad predicts Israel will be swept away
83Iran Nuclear Weapons
- WASHINGTON (AFP) Iran has enough fissile
material to build a nuclear bomb, top US military
officer Admiral Mike Mullen said on Sunday,
marking the first time the United States has made
such an assessment. - The admiral's remarks came in the wake of a
report by the UN nuclear watchdog, the
International Atomic Energy Agency, that is
sufficient for a nuclear weapons breakout
capability (IAEA), saysTehran now has 1,010
kilogrammes of low-enriched uranium
84Israels Response
85Netanyahu Israels Prime Minister
- Iran is developing nuclear weapons and poses
the greatest threat to our existence since the
war of independence. Irans terror wings surround
us from the north and south, he said in
reference to Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in
Lebanon, as he accepted the nomination to form a
government.
86Benjamin Netanyahu
87Israels Supreme Court Building
88Note Occult Symbols
- The pyramid with the all Seeing Eye just like
the one on the American dollar bill, sits in a
circle to the left. The larger circle you see at
the bottom of the picture is an inverted-cross
designed to walk on. It is the only religious
emblem designed to be trampled on under foot. At
the top of the picture is a Moslem Gravesite, and
just out of view to the right is an Egyptian
Obelisk.
89Israel Prepares Attack Plans
- Jerusalem Post - Yaakov Katz, 12/4/08
- The IDF is drawing up options for a strike on
Iranian nuclear facilities that do not include
coordination with the United States, The
Jerusalem Post has learned. - While its preference is to coordinate with the
US, defense officials have said Israel is
preparing a wide range of options for such an
operation.
90Abomination of Desolation Introduces Great
TribulationandGreat Deception
- When ye therefore shall see the abomination of
desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet,
stand in the holy place, (whoso reads, let him
understand) (Matthew 2415 AV) - For then shall be great tribulation, such as was
not since the beginning of the world to this
time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those
days should be shortened, there should no flesh
be saved but for the elects sake those days
shall be shortened. (Matthew 2421-22 AV)
91Six Religions Looking for a Messianic Figure to
Appear
- Buddhists are looking for the fifth Buddha
- Hindus are looking for Krishna
- Moslems are looking for the 12th Imam
- New Agers are looking for Maitreya
- Jews are looking for the Messiah
- Christians are looking for the return of Christ
92False Christs and Religious Deception During
Tribulation
- 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here
is Christ, or there believe it not. 24 For
there shall arise false Christs, and false
prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders
insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect. (Matthew 2423-24 AV)
93Satans Quest to be Worshipped
- Satans temptation of Christ centered on
worshipping Satan. - 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an
exceeding high mountain, and shows him all the
kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them 9
And says unto him, All these things will I give
thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10

of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering
together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken
in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor
by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the

you by any means for that day shall not come,

that he is God. (2 Thessalonians 21-4 AV)

his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his
mouth as the mouth of a lion and the dragon gave

continue forty and two months. 6 And he opened
his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme
his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell
in heaven. (Revelation 134-6 AV)

the saints, and to overcome them and power was

sword, and did live. 15 And he had power to give
life unto the image of the beast, that the image
of the beast should both speak, and cause that as
many as would not worship the image of the beast
should be killed. (Revelation 1314-15 AV)

of his name. (Revelation 1316-17 AV)
