In all of human history we never had an alliance of Iran and Russia against Israel, therefore this is the first time in human history that Ezekiel 38 could be fulfilled.

Never before could we have had a "mark of the beast where no one can buy or sell". That requires a digital currency, it requires RFID chips, it requires quantum computers and it requires Starlink. What we are seeing today is a fulfillment of prophecy.

Never before have we had "the image of the beast which could speak". Some tried to say it was TV but everyone knew that was lame as the idea of being able to speak indicates the ability to have a conversation. Today with Deep Fake and AI we have a beast system and the image of the Beast that can speak. What we are seeing today with AI and Deep Fakes is a fulfillment of prophecy.

Never before did we have a worldwide Sabbath rest declared shutting down business as we did during the Pandemic. That was prophesied in the book of Joel to let us know the day of the Lord was at hand.

The Revelation 12 sign which appeared in the heavens on the Feast of Trumpets in 2017 has never occurred in human history (the previous six thousand years) before. That was a fulfillment of prophecy.

So yes, in the past we have had many false prophets, but that also is a fulfillment of prophecy.

1948 started Gods prophetic time clock. There is no doubt about it and that is why you're seeing things you've never seen before.

But we never know how long His return may take.
Actually.....we can estimate with a high degree of confidence.
The day and the hour of the snatching of the Bride (which MUST take place before the Wife of YHVH goes thru the tribulation) we do not know. But we definitely CAN know the times and the seasons.

And these are the times and the season. Evidenced infallibly by God's timepiece......ISRAEL.
The nation ISRAEL.....in and of itself.....is a sign. Always was, always will be.

Spot on buddy. Unmistakable.

As for the beheadings of the tribulation Saints.....think drones with Skynet and facial recognition carrying small explosive charges.

I see you're still supporting a guy who slandered and defamed grieving families. You might want to check your Bible about bearing false witness

No disrespect intended, but the reality is a few decades ago the dispensational prophecy conferences were talking about attack helicopters. Those with the same eschatological interpretation were also saying things like, "Spot on buddy. Unmistakable."

Since this thread concerns Trump, I'll link this new article.

I wonder if the losing side will ever actually leave like they say they will. The last paragraph about nowhere else to go is similar to what I heard and ex KGB agent speak of years ago in warning Americans that if the US falls apart, there's nowhere else to go to have what America has. But this is some decades ago now.

Assuming the rats nest concept of the US gov't is accurate, cleaning it out would seem a good thing.

I guess the question is, what will we be saying next - I'm so glad you're here, Jesus, or the Text is obviously speaking of that new tech X, or?

I'm sure preterists and others have similar questions.

It's like the mark. It will continue to change with time and advancement.

The word "irrefutable" in discussions like these, especially having to do with eschatology, immediately raises my awareness antennae. At this point, again, especially re: eschatology, all that those antennae typically do is cause me to move on to something else.

Those articles are lengthy. They look to be based upon some of Chuck Missler's work in or around 2,000. Your point in posting them? Do you see them as irrefutable? Have you read or listened to others who propose to refute them?

1) Frankly I am thrilled that the sweat equity (many many years) sown into deep-dive eschatology has brought me to "irrefutable". Very comforting really.

2) Right. Lengthy. Thats what serious Bible students do. Lengthy. Arduous. Sisyphean even. Big payoff in the end tho.

I know those who interpret eschatology differently than you do are similarly comforted from their sweat equity. I've also seen all sides claim their positions to be irrefutable.

Then I've seen some recognize and admit that eschatology is still being worked out in the Church the same way other major areas of study were worked out in history, some over very long periods of time and debate.

It's good you're very comforted. I'm also comfortable in my position after being trained in one system and later deciding to venture out and read some major works in other systems rather than allow one system's adherents to tell me how they viewed the others. For what it's worth, among other things, I read or heard Missler's work decades ago and saw no need to read a repeat of it in your posted articles. I'm pretty certain I read similar analysis from one or more of his contemporaries.

As I said, a claim to irrefutability means little to me at this point. 1948 and 1967 are interesting, but have also required, for one thing, that the definition of a "generation" be revised as forecasts from there have come and gone without forecasted events taking place. So, now we're at drones instead of apache helicopters being locusts, and both replacing all the unrealized ideas that came before these.

My deep-dives were lead to go elsewhere in Scripture. Along the way I began to view the eschatology battles and conferences as Christian entertainment - even distractions - some of which have been and are driving some interesting things going on in the world.

Ultimately I think it's going to be interesting to sort out where various eschatological ideas were in themselves the cause for many things that took place. We're already doing this to some degree. His ways are still mysterious no matter how irrefutable or infallible we think we are. He uses His creation for His telos and knows from before the beginning how every word He spoke or inspired would be interpreted and used and what would come of all of it. This is some of my comforting eschatology that doesn't require me to join this or that "irrefutable" interpretation or "___ism" and take on some label of "____ist".

The Biden administration is predicting that this coming election will be a horror story that would best be likened to that classic movie "Night of the Living Dead"! They are looking for those 81 million voters who voted for Biden by mail in votes to actually come to the polling places!

[The screen fades from black to a dimly lit polling place, the sound of heavy breathing and panicked whispers fills the air. The camera pans across the faces of terrified individuals huddled together, their eyes wide with fear.]

Narrator: "In a world torn apart by chaos and fear..."

[Images flash across the screen of streets overrun by chaos, news reports blaring about an unprecedented crisis.]

Narrator: "One night will test the resilience of humanity..."

[The sound of banging on the doors echoes through the polling place, causing everyone to tense up.]

Narrator: "As the dead rise to vote for Biden..."

[Shadows move outside the windows, distorted figures clawing at the glass.]

Voiceover (woman's voice): "They're breaking in!"

[The camera zooms in on a group of survivors, their faces determined despite their fear.]

Survivor 1: "We need to hold them off until the social worker arrives!"

Survivor 2: "But who's coming to help us? Everyone's out there!"

[The survivors barricade the doors and windows as the horde of zombies presses closer.]

Narrator: "Election of the Undead. Coming soon"

Babylon Bee, through parody, is kicking butt and taking names, and clearly showing it’s impossible to vote Democrat and be a Christian today :

Timely. I was sitting in a coffee shop early yesterday morning and saw a guy walk by in a big, furry dolphin suit (the video Jesus mentioned Him about half-way through). At first I thought he just forgot to change out of his strange jammies before walking to the store. Then I remembered the time and country (US) we're living in and now, how it's probably OK in our time to identify as irrefutable.

Whatever you problems with eschatology might be.....

They aren't mine. Thankfully.
