Hi I'm trying to read the Bible and see how it is relevant to current world events. I'm having a very hard time making heads or tails of it because I don't know which prophecies have already occurred and which ones are yet to come. The Old testament is filled with prophecies of the coming Messiah and tribulations, restoration and collapse of the Israel nation.

How do events in the Middle East play out in terms of the Biblical time line? What is Satan's attack plan and what tools do Christians have to combat the spiritual assaults of the enemy? How do you translate the words in the Bible to practical every day application?

What are demons and how do we bind and cast them out of our lives and the lives of our loved ones? What happened to faith and the power to heal? Do miracles still happen?

Jesus talked about what is happening now in the Bible. He called it the rise of the Anti Christ. Does anyone remember the lesson of what demons real goals are in this world?

To isolate people and sever the human connections
To make people more selfish and materialistic
To use the concerns of this world to choke the hope and light of God’s grace in our lives
To create illusions by creating lies and half truths

I feel like a kid looking at the sea and wondering if I have enough faith to walk on water to meet Jesus. I think Joyce Meyers had it right, its the in between times that are the hardest. Its when we as believers step out of the boat of the status quo that miracles happen. Prayer, faith, mercy, strength and so many other words are just words until we act upon it.

so have we seen the rise of the Anti Christ? Who is his prophet? How does the Bible tell us to act during these times? What is Love? God makes it shine on the just and unjust alike. what is justice? God tells us that we are to be kind and loving towards even our enemies and Vengeance is God's not ours to take, but we are still allowed to defend ourselves and prevent people from committing the sin of harming God's beloved children: themselves or us.

is there a live chat option on this site??

The message is the same in world events from generation to generation. All people have sinned. Christ is the Saviour (Son of God). Call upon Christ and believe in Him to be saved (John 3:16). Don't try to look at the times and seasons of the end times with dispensational pre-tribulation end times bible prophecy charts of Ezekiel, Daniel, and Revelation. Such an approach misuses and distorts the Bible.

Good answer. It seems as if I am posting this verse at least once a day. "“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." (Matthew 24:36 & Mark 13:32) I am beginning to think that overriding concern for the "end times" is a trick of the devil to distract us from our true calling, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,..." (Matthew 28:19)

Allow me to reveal unto you those things which God has explained. You must first read the bible in order to hear His voice. That you may talk with Him n He with you and then He may cause you to understand true prophecy.

There are no prophecies concerning our days your ministers are wrong because they didn't ask God what prophecy is fulfilled and what is not. I did ask and He revealed things you wont believe at first yet the prophecies being the works of Gods hands who else should you ask?

We are living during the 1000 years of lucifers imprisonment he was locked up in 1945 his last physical form was that of Hitler. The antichrist came much earlier during the 17th century. His name was cardinal Richeleu prime minister of France. His mark was the fleurdelis. Which is our nations symbol for the boy scouts.

You see Revelation 13:18 means this ; the fleudelis was the nation symbol of France. And it was also the cadency mark of the sixth son in French and English heraldry. In 1376 king Charles of France reduced the number of fleurdelis on the French flag and coat of arms to three in honor of the Holy Trinity. Each one represented 6 which is why the 666 was. The number of a man. Charles a Christian name means a man or fellow by definition. Cardinal Richeleu used this as his merchants mark or what we call today a trade mark. And merchants needed this mark in order to buy sell or trade in any French owned territory.

Revelation 16:18 that great earthquake that destroyed that great city occurred in 1692. That great city was Port Royal Jamaica. Called the richess and wickedess city in the world. It was also called the Sodom of the new world and the city that sank. For it was divided into three parts. Two of the three parts sank beneath the sea. The rapture everyone is waiting for happen during the 17th century also. Would you like to know when?

This is called the creation equation given unto us by God to stop the mouths of those that deny the truth. And to prove that the bible is true and how we are factored into His master plan.
God said He created Adam the first man 6017 years ago. 2744 years later came Abraham. 42 generation later our Lord my King Jesus came in the flesh among humans which is 1260 years. Subtract 6017-2744-1260- your birth year. The answer will be the age you'll be in this year. This works for everthing God created. Peace and blessings.

Dont take my word for anything Im not tryin to convince anyone that's Gods job. Mine intructions are to tell the world. And I started with every revelation preacher you can name. I even wrote the pope. No one can disprove what God has revealed no one. Yet nobody wants to ask God. I know the truth for we can hear Him. Ask Him yourself and search out what I've told you for yourself. We are not special. We just follow instruction everything I know I've learned from my Lord. Test me then wiki what I've revealed theres so much more. FYI the prophecy timeline began with: Alexander the great Daniel 11:4

Speaking about New HeavenS and a New Earth, Isaiah 65:20 states, Never again will there be in it (Earth) an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not live out his years; he who dies at a hundred will be thought a mere youth: he who fails to reach a hundred (a sinner)will be considered accursed. Isa 65:21 They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit. Isa 65:22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them or plant and others eat. For as the days of a tree so will be the days of my people; my chosen ones will long enjoy the works of their hands. Isa 65:23 They will not toil in vain or bear children doomed to misfortune; for they will be a people blessed by the lord, they and their descendants with them.

These scriptures speak of a time where there will be peace for those who have obediently followed Christ but there is still birth and Death. Could Isaiah be speaking here of the 1000 year millennial age?

Revelation 21:1 speaks of A New Heaven and A New Earth for the first heaven and the first Earth had passed away and there was no longer any sea. The following verses explain the New Jerusalem and God living with men. However Rev 21:4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more Death or mourning or crying or pain for the old order of things has passed away. This speaks of the eternal age where there is no more death.

Understand this my Lord never said that no man couldn't know the day or the hour only that no man could know before it happens yet it is in our past therefore we must come to know the truth of what God has done that we may prepare the way for those that shall live during satans release from his prison count 1000 years from 1945. For if the children of God continue to be ignorant of these things those that shall live in those times shall not be prepared.

Daniel 12:1 -3 was fulfilled in 1613. The Archangel Michael came un the flesh in the form of the great Prince Mikhail Romanov. He stood up to become king of Russia during the only era in history called the times of troubles as it is written. When he stood up and shouted yes he would do it after not wanting to the rapture began. It took 33years to complete. You see the Romanov dynasty inherited a deserted land for more than half the villages of Russia was deserted of people. And not just Russia but the entire world was missin people.
Churches were bankrupt women were eating there own children for there wasn't enuf men to till the land. Men fought wild dogs for dead horse carcuses. People cast lots for those that hung on the gallows. These were dredful times. It is also written that these things must first be published before the rapture came. Mark 13:10 This was fulfilled by the completion of the king James version bible in 1611. Search it out I did. I did my homework I asked God and He showed me every prophecy fulfilled.
Trust it was hard for me also for I believed as many do that He would return but He said it was not so for it was not meant for us only those whose blood was required. His martyrs and saints. Research them as He had me do and see how they died violently just for saying they were Christians.
And still theres so much more.
Peace and blessings
