PROPHECY -- THE APEX


Jonah 3: 5,10 5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them. 10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

My son, I have said that this nation and its people have PASSED THE POINT OF NO RETURN. I have said that this nation and its people have CROSSED THE RUBICON. Now I say - you are AT THE APEX - the top of the peak, and all that is left now is the GREAT FALL AND CRASH. My children, you have proceeded in fulfilling ALL the sins in My Word - now will come My hand of judgment. Unlike the people of Nineveh, who repented of their sins from the king down to the common man, this nation WILLFULLY SINS AND PARADES IT AROUND LIKE A BANNER. All great empires reach THE APEX, then collapse in on itself due to rampant sin. Prepare! Mystery Babylon - for judgment is come, and the collapse is imminent.

My son, My children in this nation have given themselves over to ALL forms of debauchery and sin. They REFUSE TO REPENT - saying - THEY DO NOT SIN AND ARE PURE AND HOLY. But I say - YOU STINK OF SIN AND ARE DIRTY AND SPOTTED! YOU, MY CHILDREN, THINK YOU ARE HOLY - YET YOU ARE UNHOLY AND UNABLE TO STAND IN MY COURT!

My son, MANY - I say - MANY multitudes will not be able to stand at that day. Many have been taught lies and REFUSE to study My Word to find the truth. My children, you are at THE APEX, and the slide down has started. Why do you think America is not Mystery Babylon? Have you not read My Word for the qualifications of that title? The enemy is now in the borders, and the people are asleep, and then - SUDDENLY - ALL IS GONE! Fire will cover the land, and in an instant, MANY, MANY, MANY will stand before Me in the blink of an eye. Mystery Babylon - ONCE THE APEX - is now a ruinous heap of mortar and bones. A land so polluted, it will not sustain life. My judgment is final.

My son, continue to SHOUT REPENT to these stiff-necked people who REFUSE to acknowledge they are in sin. REPENT DAILY - FOR ALL MEN SIN DAILY - WHETHER IN THOUGHT, DEED, OR TONGUE. When you stand before Me, will your garments be white as snow or spotted for unrepentant sin? BRACE YOURSELVES - My Remnant - for you too will feel the collapse, but you will be under My wing, and I will carry you through it. PRAY DAILY. SEEK ME DAILY. REPENT DAILY. MY FATHER IS THE ULTIMATE APEX.......CLIMB TOWARD HIM!

Amen. Lord Jesus

PROPHECY--ABSOLUTE BLACK


Amos 5:20 Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?


My son, DARKNESS is soon coming upon this nation and THICK DARKNESS upon the hearts of those who reject Me! This DARKNESS is not only spiritual, but also physical as it will envelop the entire nation and world! Men's eyes will strain to find light - even a match will seem like a spotlight! ABSOLUTE BLACK is what is said when you enter a cave and turn off all the lights. Your eyes strain to see even the smallest amount of light. (At this point, the Lord brought back to my memory, a scene from 1976 when my wife and I were stationed at Rickenbacker AFB in Columbus, Ohio. We went on tour of the Olentangy Indian Caverns. They are underground caverns, passages, and rooms on 3 levels that go from a depth of 55 to 105 feet down. During the tour when everyone was pretty far down inside, they announced that the lights would be going out. When the lights went out, it was complete and total darkness, pitch black. You could not see anything at all! This was what the Lord showed me it would be like during this time.) This is the way the DARKNESS will be upon the Earth, because this is the way of man's heart! This was the way it was during Noah's time - men's hearts had evil in them all the time!!

My son, I say this DARKNESS will last three days. Any longer, and men's minds would snap, and all would go insane. This will be as it is in hell, in the OUTER DARKNESS where men will gnash their teeth!! This DARKNESS will also be the time when a bottomless pit will open, and hordes of demons will flood the Earth! GROSS THICK DARKNESS - ABSOLUTE BLACK!!!

My son, for My Remnant and Bride - I will illuminate you during this time, so after the DAYS OF DARKNESS pass, you will shine as beacons, reflecting My Glory and Light!! I AM the Light of the World, and ALL men will be drawn to Me! Many will turn away when My light exposes their sin, but some will allow My light to erase the DARKNESS OF SIN!!

My son, I AM coming soon to gather My Remnant, and it will be during the TOTAL BLACKOUT - ABSOLUTE BLACK, NO LIGHT!! That is when I will come and transform My Remnant! This DARKNESS is very near! My Word says, I inhabit the DARKNESS, THE THICK DARKNESS (I Kings 8:12), and I will very soon claim My own! I love you, My Children, My Remnant, and My Bride! I AM coming very soon! Keep your eyes on Israel - that is the clue!! Netanyahu will be re-elected, for I have chosen him to lead Israel in the final days, just as I have chosen Trump to bring judgment on America! ALL IS AS IT IS TO BE, ACCORDING TO MY WORD!! NOTHING CAN CHANGE WHAT IS ABOUT TO COME!! BE READY AT ALL TIMES!!!

Amen. Messiah Jesus

I will raise him up at the last day.

39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

I will raise him up at the last day.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

Let's examine this. When you are talking about "all which God has given Jesus" then that must include all Christians and all Jews and even all sheep of the nations. So here "the last day" is referring to after the day of judgment and after the Great tribulation.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Here this is more specific, "all which seeth the Son and believeth on Him". This is not referring to the sheep of the nations. However, even the Jews will look on Him whom they have pierced and will believe He is hte Messiah, so this can refer to both Christians and Jews.

41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Here it is even more specific, "no man can come to Me". The Jews do not come to the Lord individually, they come as a nation. So this is referring specifically to Christians. We take the lead, we are pioneers the same way the Priests and the kings take the lead to lead people to Christ.

So then, what does this mean "the last day"?

Obviously, when the church is raptured the church age ends, that would be the last day of the church age.

When the Jewish nation is rescued that also would be the last day, the end of the 70th week.

When the world is rescued that also would be the last day.

Interestingly these three groups all have three different "last day" that they celebrate.

For the world Rosh Hashanah is supposed to be the birthday of the world, so the day prior would be the last day.

For the nation of Israel their salvation began on Nisan 1, so the last day would be the day prior to Nisan 1.

For the times of the Gentiles our calendar starts on January 1st, so the last day would be December 31st.

I am not predicting anything, what I am saying is that the world still celebrates their birthday to this day, the Jews still celebrate Nisan 1 as the first day of their salvation and the nations all celebrate January 1st as the first day of the year for them. These celebrations being kept to this day is under the Lord's sovereignty, if it had no significance then why has the Lord decreed this?

Last

STRONGS G2078:
ἔσχατος, ἐσχάτῃ, ἔσχατον (from ἔχω, ἔσχον adhering, clinging close; (according to others (Curtius, § 583 b.) superlative from ἐξ, the outermost)), the Sept. for אַחֲרון, אַחֲרִית; (from Homer down); extreme, last in time or in place;
1. joined to nouns: τόπος, the last in a series of places (A. V. lowest), Luke 14:9f; in a temporal succession, the last: ἔσχατος ἐχθρός, that remains after the rest have been conquered, 1 Corinthians 15:26; κοδράντης, that remains when the rest have one after another been spent, Matthew 5:26; so λεπτόν, Luke 12:59; ἡ ἐσχάτῃ σάλπιγξ, the trumpet after which no other will sound, 1 Corinthians 15:52,


The first mention of "last" in the New Testament --

Matthew 5:26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost G2078 farthing.

Not only is it the "last day" but it is when you have paid the last farthing. The debt must be paid, you can receive the price that Jesus paid for you or you will pay it yourself, your choice.

Matthew 12:45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last G2078 state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

This is what happens to those who do not receive Jesus, the "last" state of that man will be during the Great tribulation.

Matthew 19:30 But many that are first shall be last; G2078 and the last G2078 shall be first.

It is foolish to think there is no pre tribulation rapture, the Lord has made it very clear some will be first and some will be last.

This word first means -- first in rank, influence, honour, chief, principal. They have a hierarchy in the family of God where they put themselves before other believers. This is pride and arrogance. The Lord is going to deal with that pride.

Matthew 20:8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last G2078 unto the first.

Why should you do it this way? If he paid them in order from first to last the people who were there first would not have gotten upset at being paid the same. He did this intentionally to send a message to those who were first, why? Go back to the story, the people who were hired last were not lazy, they were out there waiting to be hired all day. Imagine going to the employment office at 7am and you wait all day and then at 5pm you are hired. Most people would have gone home when they weren't hired by 10am. So these ones are desperate, they can't afford to go home with nothing. So why would someone this serious about working not be hired? Perhaps they appeared weak, sickly, or not too bright. Perhaps they were those who were easily mocked and ridiculed by others. Whatever the reason the Lord intentionally wanted to make them equal to those who were first and He wanted all to know. When the first come and expect they will be paid more it reveals this proud, arrogant attitude that they think they are better than others.

Matthew 20:16 So the last G2078 shall be first, and the first last: G2078 for many be called, but few chosen.

Do not put yourself before other believers otherwise the Lord will put you behind other believers.

Matthew 27:64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last G2078 error shall be worse than the first.

The first error is not receiving Jesus Christ as the Lord. The last error is in trying to cover up and suppress the truth. They are judging themselves. Why would they think the disciples would steal a dead body to perpetrate a lie? Because they would do that.

Mark 9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last G2078 of all, and servant of all.

If you desire to be in the first rapture you will be last of all and servant of all your brothers and sisters.

1260 and 1290 can both be used to bring us to 688 AD when the Dome of the rock was built. By the way that was 1335 years ago.

That's right! Stunningly, we arrive at 688.5 AD. Once again the founding year of the blasphemous Islamic abomination The Dome of the Rock.



Now let's look at the verses again to see what else they say.

(KJV) Daniel 12:11: And from the time [that] the daily [sacrifice] shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, [there shall be] a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
(Tanach) - Daniel 12:11 And from the time the daily sacrifice was removed and the silent abomination placed, is one thousand, two hundred, and ninety.

So the blasphemous Islamic abomination of The Dome of the Rock may well be THE Abomination of desolation.



That blasphemous structure located on the Temple Mount - God's footstool - as God's symbol in prophecy for Muhammad as THE false prophet, and Islam as the leopard-bear-lion "beast" of Revelation 13, and the final end-time foe of God's people.

Daniel and John's prophecies were written over 500 years apart, yet the two books unite with mathematical precision - both pinning the year 688 AD - that was hundreds of years in John's future and over a thousand years in Daniel's future! Through John's 1260 "days", 42 "months" and now Daniel's 1290.

Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains

It would be difficult for a Christian to deny that the blasphemous Islamic Mosque, the Dome of the Rock, is AN abomination with it's mosaic declarations of "God is only One God. Far be it removed from His transcendent majesty that He should have a son." and "God, Who hath not taken unto Himself a son".

That is, of course, the exact opposite of what the Gospel teaches through hundreds of verses that confirm Jesus is the Son of God and God His Father, such as....

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Is it really that much of a surprise to find that the blasphemous abomination of the Dome of the Rock could be THE Abomination of Desolation, since 1.5 billion people - 1/4 of mankind in the world today - follow the false prophet Muhammad, and are taught that to confess that Jesus is the Son of God, or even to pray in Jesus' name, would constitute the ONLY UNFORGIVABLE SIN in their cult?

1John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

Islam always the exact opposite, since confessing that Jesus is the Son of God transgresses the single most important sin in Islam and is known as "shirk", but from a Christian perspective is identified as instilling in Muhammad's followers the spirit of antichrist.

1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: [(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also].

There is certainly no shortage of Jews in Israel that consider the Dome of the Rock to be AN abomination of desolation, as any worship on the temple mount is precluded by the existence of this Islamic abomination, with the Muslim leaders declaring the temple mount a "no prayer zone". The Israelis regained control of the temple mount in the 7 day war, but were later convinced to negotiate it away to the Muslims, in exchange for another false promise of peace by Muhammad's followers.

Muhammad wholesale slaughtered Jewish farm boys and their dads and grandpas, sexually abused and enslaved their little sisters, moms and grandmothers, and stole their property, while his hatred of Jews is expressed throughout Islam's books as in this example from Islam's Hadith:

Sahih Muslim B41, #6981 Ibn 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: You will fight against the jews and you will kill them until even a stone would say: Come here, Muslim, there is a Jew (hiding himself behind me); kill him.

Rapture on New Years Eve?

From destruction of the first temple to the dome of the rock was 1,290 years. From the Dome of the Rock to 1948 is 1260 years. From Dome of Rock to 2023 is 1335 years. Three key numbers given to us in Daniel and Revelation.

Also, Jesus told us that He would "raise us up on the last day", a possible reference to the last day of the year. Granted when He said this the gregorian calendar was not being used, however, in John 6 he said this phrase 4 times. It is very reasonable to interpret one of those times as a reference to the Gentile church at the end of the "times of the Gentiles" and it is also true that as Lord of the Earth Jesus had to approve the Gregorian calendar becoming universally accepted.

According to this website the 7 year covenant goes into effect on Friday, January 5th, 2030 at 12:01am.

After the rapture we anticipate 3 days of darkness, then we expect the Antichrist to confirm (strengthen) this seven year covenant and then for this seven year covenant to go into effect.

8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.


This is the point of the tribulation during the church age and particularly during the last days. We are being refined as gold and silver. The word of God is fine gold, are you constituted with the word of God? Jesus was the incarnated word of God, that is what it means to be constituted with it, you see it lived out in His life. Likewise with silver. That is a reference to redeeming others. Sharing the gospel, sharing your testimony, witnessing to others. This is silver being lived out in your life. It is through the fire of the trials in our life that we discover the gold and silver. You crush the ore, and heat it to the point the gold and silver will melt and then drip down the bottom with everything else floating to the surface. This is saying that two thirds of the Jews are simply slag, that is still a very high percentage of gold and silver. It is very hard to find a mine where you have 33% gold or silver.

Daniel 12:8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? 9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. 10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. 11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

From the time that the first temple was destroyed and the daily sacrifice was taken away was 1,290 years until 688 when the Dome of the Rock was "set up" on the temple mount.

12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

688 AD was 1,335 years ago.

7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

We understand a time, times and a half to refer to three and a half years, which is 42 months or 1260 days. It has been 1260 years from 688AD to 1948 when the scattering of the Jews was accomplished and they were gathered back into Israel again.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.


This is interesting, it was 1,260 years from the dome of the rock being set up and the Jews returning to Israel. Likewise, during the tribulation the believers will also flee into the wilderness for 1,260 days. Pattern is prophecy.

But the angel didn't say 1260, so if we take one year as 12 30 day months, that would be

Time = 360

688 + 360 = 1048 the year that the church of the Holy Sepulchre was rebuilt, a building that dates back to the Roman empire.

Times = 720

1048 + 720 = 1768 = The Massacre of Humań, or massacre of Uman (Polish: rzeź humańska; Ukrainian: "уманська різня" or "взяття Умані") was a 1768 massacre of the Jews, Poles and Ukrainian Uniates by haidamaks. The murders were committed at the town of Uman in the far eastern part of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.

The Haidamak Rebellion in 1768 brought death and destruction to vast numbers of people and is symbolized by the terrible slaughter at Uman, during which thousands of Jews, Poles, Roman Catholics, and Ukrainian Unitiates were slaughtered.
The World Jewish Congress joins its Ukrainian affiliates, the Jewish Confederation of Ukraine and the Vaad of Ukraine, in expressing grave concerns about proposed efforts to glorify the so-called Koliivshchyna in Ukraine.

Half a time = 180

1768 + 180 = 1948 = Jews are able to return to Israel after the Holocaust, after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, and after the demonization of the Jews by the Catholic church.

So yes, it is 1260 years from the dome of the rock being set up and 1948, but it is also time, times and half a time.

They engineered a bag with holes in it

6 Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

When you look at the people with great wealth like John D Rockefeller or Warren Buffet you see can see their wealth growing year by year. They had a bag that didn't have a hole in it and the reason for that is they engineered their own bag.

Most people don't do that, they just "trust" the bank or the brokerage firm and invest or store their wealth their. They aren't trying to be a billionaire, simply a responsible citizen who slowly becomes wealthier. But what they don't get is the bag you are putting your money into has a hole in it.

Imagine 100 million bags, each with water (representing wealth). Some have more, some less. But in each bag you were able to pop a hole and get 2% of that water each year. It won't seem like a lot to any one bag, but cumulatively it is equal to 2 million bags a year! This is what inflation is and people think, 2% is a small price to pay.

But consider this, suppose you have worked for fifty years and saved up quite a bit for you and your family. 2% represents an entire year's worth of savings. Perhaps you are 70, over the next ten years they will take 2% a year or more than 20% of your savings. Now that is if the inflation rate is only 2%, right now it is much closer to 10%, over those same ten years they will take 100% of your savings and it doesn't matter if you are rich or poor, they take 10% from everyone.

But that is only if you have your savings in cash, if you have it in stocks they might grow more than 2% a year. Yes, that is why Warren Buffet and John Rockefeller saw their wealth grow and not shrink. When inflation is only 2% a year companies can thrive and outperform inflation. But what happens when it is 8-10% a year? Few if any companies can survive for long in that environment. This would be like trying to ski down a mountain where 90% of the snow has melted off and all you can see is rocks and dirt and mud.
