I prophesied that God will raise up Russia [Putin is the Rider on a White Horse and the Beast of Revelation] and China to destroy America [Babylon] with nuclear missiles at the opening of the Sixth Seal of Revelation. I prophesied this over 12 years ago in my book Beyond Millennium.
And when exactly is this supposed to happen? It better happen soon because it has been reported that Putin is very sick with cancer. It doesn't take a prophet to predict that there will be a nuclear war in the future. I think that I will stick with Revelation and keep in touch with Fox News.

I've studied the Bible for 20 years. I've been leading a Bible group reading through the Bible in a year this year. It's like the third or fourth time I've went completely through it. I wrote a Christian fiction book based upon eschatology. And the Holy Spirit has given me the gift of prophecy.

I posted all these things in advance so that people would have the foreknowledge of what God is going to do. And yet, no matter what, people want to get on their eschatological high horse and tell me I'm wrong. I'm not wrong and one day (gets closer everyday) you will see just how right I was. You should take this information and prepare yourself instead of thinking YOU'RE always right.

For you to study the Bible for 20 years and still miss the mark is pretty bad. All anyone has to do is study what the Bible actually says. It's pretty clear that the beast is not Russia and the AC is not Putin as there are too many contradictions that easily show this. Your false prophecy is just to distract people from the real AC.

The one person supporting you is just sad because he's been pretty off the mark too.

For everyone else, PLEASE be Berean and study the Bible on the end times yourselves. These are the last days and there will be many false prophecies that will arise and try to mislead you!

David Koresh was convinced he was right too. And unfortunately, like him you're delusional and can't see it.

Based upon the warning the Lord gave me, "When America goes to war with North Korea and China, the Russians will surprise attack us with an all-out nuclear attack..."

That dream was in April 2017 and I preached it in this sermon in May 2018 (I timestamped the dream for you):

What is sad is that you are not listening. Your not actually considering what is said you are going by interpretation what you believe the word says but prophecy doesn't work that way there is interpretation only listening.

And I have also by no means missed the mark Everything I said and warned about is going to happen not because I myself said it but because he has warned us ahead of time. In every instance he sends his prophets and messengers to warn what is going to happen or what he is going to do and every time his prophets or messengers were not accepted they were scoffed attacked and rehected except for a fair few who listened and repented.

In the last days there will be mockers and scoffers as well as false prophets the false prophets I have seen all are positive giving a words of blessing almosy every day but make no mistake these are not to be listened to. You don't need a word to recieve the blessings he gives daily they are your to have the ones who are sounding the alert who are telling you to look at things differently now this is a season where we cannot go about things as we have and this ring of fire solar eclipse is the mark of things unfolding as he said they would

Also as far as what the word clearly says if you cannot see what is happening right in our faces on the news and with Israel and cannot see all this in scripture making a more clear picture of what it was saying then maybe you have the missed the mark.

And you know I have seen over and over how we study the bible how we interprete it and decide what is truth for ourselves while opposing what others believe to be truth. But I found freedom in dropping all of that any doctrine or stance whatever I believed to be true I dropped all of that and instead learned how to seek the living word in doing so there is a frequency to his voice and spirit that comes with that when read scrpture don't bother needing to know what it means or says I listen to what he says it is what he says is truth.
It is much easier and more enjoyable this way but as long as you study it your way it is no wonder you do not listen to him warning what is up ahead.

Your mission is clear: Turn people away from God's word to mysticism. It couldn't be any clearer. I'm sure your way is easier and more enjoyable.

I've read your stuff and it's pretty flakey too like the prophecy in this thread. You're a false prophet as well, so I don't have to listen to you.

I don't know if you've read that he's dealing with some health issues and he has said himself that he is "legally blind", whatever that means, so take that in consideration and let the man express himself. You don't have to respond to him basically. I never do.

I'm not preventing him from expressing himself, but I don't have to listen to him either. I'm letting him know that so he knows not to waste his time responding to me.

I'm not sure why we have to walk on eggshells just because he has health issues that he posts about often. I have health issues too. Should I use that so people will hold back on what they really think?

Well, it's not about that, it's about talking to the wall basically. He's been expressing himself for years so if you or I tell him that, he's not going to change.
So, why waste or distress your emotional state?
I mean we're free to do what we want but i was just saying.(y)

Well, if that's what you want to do go ahead. But I'm quite fine with what I posted. I don't know why you think I would have to be distressed just to post that? 🤷

The Pharisees did not believe Jesus was the Christ because He wasn't what they were expecting - and trust me, THEY KNEW THE SCRIPTURES INSIDE AND OUT. Somehow, even with eyes to see and ears to hear, they couldn't see or hear in Jesus anything but a false prophet. So, it is with many here in their attitude towards me.

And for the record, I get it. There have been countless false prophets in the past, so why should you listen to me? You'll just have to watch it come to pass to believe and then it will be too late. You won't be able to say, "Why didn't the Lord send anyone to warn us?" Because He did.

You're not Jesus and I haven't heard anyone around here lately claim to be Pharisees. I've heard lots of people accuse others of being Pharisees; that's typical. Your analogy of yourself as Jesus and anyone who won't get on board with you as Pharisees just further demonstrates your delusion. The thing about delusional people is they can be very convincing because they believe their own delusions. I have Jesus' word in scripture; that's where I go, not to some flake who thinks he's Jesus.

It is called the Book of Revelation not Speculation

The Revelation of Christ Jesus

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him to show unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass. And He sent and signified it by His angel unto His servant John,

2 who bore record of the Word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein; for the time is at hand.


There is some irony in your call to be a good Berean in light of the very first words of this book.

You're not even addressing what his prophecies are and if they hold up to what the Bible specifically says about the beast, the antichrist and Babylon.

You're just sore because I don't agree with you on the war against Israel in the News forum. Please grow up.

The ad hominem (which is the actual childish responses) indicates you have no response/rebuttal on the clear statments made in the first few lines of the Book of Revelation.

You can proceed with your false eschatology about some fictional future antichrist and rapture, I tried.

You asserted it is important to be a good Berean then give an exegesis of the very first words of the passage. :unsure:

I don't need your agreement on anything btw.

I'm to just pay attention to the few statements of the Book of Revelation and ignore everything else in the book???

Well there you go. You don't even believe in Jesus returning in our lifetime then? But all those have to happen first before He comes back and the things happening in the world right now all point to it occurring sometime in this lifetime.

You've been wrong on a lot of things in the Bible, so I've quit taking you seriously a long time ago. The ac is already alive and an adult working his way up the political ladder as I write this. What will happen when the Great Tribulation comes and the mark of the beast is instituted? You'll remember all this when it actually happens. I'm wondering if you'll be ready for it.

I know this is my first thread, but I came to this site to ask people's opinions.

God has called me to be a prophet, but I don't understand the point of it. What good is it to know what is going to happen? What good is it to tell people what's going to happen?
"Prophesy" is FORTH-TELLING - God speaking through a human minister a direct message to HIS CHOSEN AUDIENCE. "Fore-telling" may be involved, but that's not the MAIN FUNCTION of the Prophet. The Prophet SPEAKS what God gives him/her to speak. If you deliver HIS message without adding to, or subtracting from it, you've done your job.

When I do tell people what is going to happen, they don't believe me and they come up with any explanation they can to say that what God has shown me will happen won't happen.
That's not your problem. If God gave you a message to speak, then speak it. If they don't HEAR YOU, that's THEIR Problem.

The only problem is that when what I say comes to pass, there will not be anyone alive or on this forum to verify it.
Also not your problem. It didn't bother Ezekiel, or Isaiah. If God tells you something, then speak it. He told you for a reason OF HIS OWN. You don't HAVE to understand why.

Most Biblical prophesies weren't understood UNTIL AFTER the fulfillment took place. Jesus was prophesied, but the Jewish Theologians didn't "recognize" HIM, and murdered HIM.

Even the most devout Christians on this forum will not be able to accept what I have to say. God is going to do a thing so great and terrible that you cannot even fathom it, let alone accept it.
Sounds like you're listening to satan. That's certainly what HE wants you to think.

There are no more prophets, sir.
Doesn't take long for the "Cessationist Paradigmatics" to show up with their foolish "theological theories".

In REALITY God STILL speaks to his people through the PROPHETIC Gifts - "word of Knowledge", "Word of Wisdom", "Tongues", "Interpretation of Tongues", "Discerning of Spirits", "Faith", and "Prophesy".

Do you believe and teach that James 1:5 IS A LIE???
