I don't know who "Their" refers to. Are those who disagree with the rapture theory deceitful?
Science requires that anything you do can be independently verified.

So they make a timeline of end time events without giving you the time. So there is no way to verify any of it or test it. As a result everyone has their own timeline. You won't know how wrong they are until the rapture, but at that point, who cares. Sure some people will be left behind but if there is a complete censorship of the internet no one will be able to determine you were wrong much less care.

This is what I mean. It seems all these bible teachers of eschatology have timelines but the process is deceitful. Give me something I can test, and independently verify. They don't do that.

Now compare that with what I am doing. I am saying that if my theory is right We'll have three days of darkness and the rapture prior to Sunday night. That is verifiable. I am also saying that four days before the rapture Damascus will become a ruinous heap and the Pope will die. So then that also is verifiable. If I am wrong we'll know immediately and can take another look at the Bible verses.

What people don't realize is that year by year we have discovered a whole lot of pieces to the puzzle. It isn't so much that we have been wrong about the day as we have been wrong about how big this puzzle is. Every time we thought we had found all there was to find only to then discover there was much more to find. There are a number of people hypothesizing about the date, but it isn't like anyone is quitting their job and selling their house over this. It is like scientists taking educated guesses based on what we know and when that proves to be wrong we are able to improve our interpretation. What we are doing is no different than what a scientist would do, only we are applying that method to the Bible.

But like I said, my goal is not the day, that is the least important question. My big questions are who gets raptured and why, and who gets left behind and why. Also, what do I need to do today to be right with the Lord when the rapture does come. Also, this is teaching us a lot about who God is and how precise He is and how amazing He is that He could tell us all this from the beginning. But those questions all have to do with the day. The day declares who gets raptured and why and who gets left behind and why and what you need to do to get raptured and we were taught this from the beginning.

The Nazarite Vow

After the rapture, for those left behind it will be like having your head shaved. Everything you were up to that point as a Christian has been lost. No one will give you any respect because, hey, if you are a Christian why were you left behind?

For a soldier, a crew cut can have hair as short as half an inch. So for men within a month you will begin to look normal and should have full length hair before the year is up. That is the beautiful thing, yes you just got your hair shaved, yes all that you were as a Christian has been tossed into the trash. But, that hair is growing. Spend a month in prayer and fasting and you will come out looking like someone in the Lord's army.

The other cool thing about this vow is yes, you lost everything, but now you are starting from scratch. You are reflecting on where you went wrong. You are not repeating past mistakes but you are learning from them, hoping not to repeat them, and therefore you are now praying and bringing everything to the Lord.

For example, suppose you were a Christian and you married a "Christian" wife. But you soon learned you had simply assumed she was a Christian, things quickly spiraled from bad to worse until you came to a breaking point and she decided she would prefer a divorce rather than be your wife. That is like being shaved as a Christian. You lost everything, you are put to an open shame, but you also get to start again. This time you are not so naive, this time you don't simply assume, this time you are praying and taking everything to the Lord.

Think about Peter. He thought he would not deny the Lord even if everyone else did. So for him his experience was like getting his head shaved. But only four months later he is standing up, preaching and 3,000 are getting saved. So the Nazarite vow is very encouraging. If you lose it, then you start over. If you had been a Christian for forty years that will look like a huge loss. But within four months you can be back on your feet with a brand new Nazarite vow, only this time you aren't taking things for granted. This time you are not assuming, you are praying, you are fasting and you are spending time in fellowship with the Lord in the word.

Now the fact that you were left behind is not a bad thing, it means you are the Lord's ambassador to all the other people left behind.

False Prophets (10)

Boasting About Tomorrow

James 4:13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— 14 yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” 16 As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. 17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

I began this series on False prophets at the same time I was asked about it. If someone keeps saying things like Chicken Little that don't come to pass, what are we supposed to do?

So let's examine this. In 2021 I said people needed to get out of the major cities on the coastlines. NYC in particular. I also said that real estate prices would collapse. I lived in NYC and put my house up for sale in December. Within a week we got an offer. We closed a few months later in the Spring of 2022. So then, was I wrong? Within one week of our closing interest rates went up. Had we waited just one more week that change would have cost us 100k. We still could have sold our house, but we would have lost 100k. We took a whole lot of flack from our family for selling the house, if we had done it after interest rates had gone up we would have gotten ten times the complaints. It takes months for most people to move. It would be senseless to give someone a warning without giving them enough time to act. Even though we moved 1500 miles away we still keep in touch with people in NYC. The situation has continually deteriorated since we left. If we tried to sell the house now all we would get, at most, is to have the mortgage paid off. Yes, we would still be able to move, but it would have been much more difficult than it was when we did move. I have also seen the same situation in many other cities around the country. Is it true of everywhere, no. But is it true of the places I mentioned? Yes. So then what about the people saying I was Chicken Little? Are they false prophets? Should they be stoned? No. They did not say "I am speaking on behalf of God, He says don't move". The reason God condemns the false prophets to death is because they said they were speaking on behalf of God when He had not talked to them nor had He commanded them to speak. That was their crime.

At the same time, December 2021, January and February of 2022 I was saying Russia would invade Ukraine, the people needed to pack up and leave. I was accused of being Chicken Little. Again, those people were wrong, I was right. You could have moved in December of 2021 comparatively easily whereas today it is next to impossible. Again, were they false prophets? God says they were wrong, you don't need to worry about them, meaning you should pay attention to who told you what and realize who was giving you good information and who was giving you bad.

In the Fall of 2023 I was telling people they should buy silver. I bought it at $18 an ounce. Silver is up almost 100% in the last 17 months. Despite that I still hear people saying "I was wrong" and that "nothing has happened" and "I'm a false prophet". So what about those who said there was nothing to worry about, don't buy it. No they are not "false prophets" they are simply fools, you can ignore them. I never told anyone that "God tells them to buy", I never pretended to be speaking on behalf of God. However, my understanding of rejecting the vaccine mandate, selling the house, the war in Ukraine and the price of silver was all based on my study of the word of God. The only words I ascribe to God's speaking are words quoted directly from the Bible. I put them into Blue and make them bold to indicate this is God's speaking.

When Donald Trump lost the election in 2020, in November, I responded to a gloating text message from my sister that he would be back. That caused a firestorm from my family. They were all wrong, I was right. He is back, they said he was done and would not return (that is the sanitized version of what they said). I kept their emails explaining to me how wrong I was. So again, I was right, they were wrong. But it took four years for them to be shown as wrong. Do they now come forward and apologize? No. Why did I say Trump would be back? Again, based on my study of the word and prophecies. Did I say God told me? Nope, simply quoted scripture.

So why is it that people still have the chutzpah to say I have been wrong repeatedly? When I look back all I see is a long string of being right.

When Hamas invaded Israel I said this war would kick of the tribulation. Again, I got all kinds of pushback, Israel has been at war before, this will simply get better. Has the war in Ukraine "gotten better"? No. Has the war with Hamas, Hezbollah, Yemen and Iran gotten better? No. Does anyone say "Hey you were right, those other people were wrong?" Not to me, all I hear is how I have been wrong over and over and that I am "Chicken Little".

I watched a documentary movie last night about a Twister that demolished Joplin, MO and killed 161 people. Probably one of the most devastating tornadoes to his the US. What caught my eye was they interviewed a few people who were keenly aware of the threat, monitoring it, and warning others. But for the most part everyone else in Joplin simply ignored it. Even when the sirens went off they told people don't worry, that happens all the time. Three people told a story about how they were racing with the pedal to the metal to keep in front of the tornado, saw a store and rushed in to seek shelter. Inside people were milling about oblivious to the coming threat. Everyone interviewed in that movie said the same thing, in a matter of ten minutes everything changed from blue sky to total devastation.

I spent a lot of time studying the pandemic and the vaccine. I determined that they were lying about the vaccine and then when the statistical evidence came out I concluded that the vaccine weakens your immune system with each shot. Not a lot, but when looking at millions of people it is undeniable. The beauty of this approach is that the result of a weakened immune system can be anything, so there is no one disease or cause of death to link to the vaccine.

We debated this on this forum for a year. Many people accused some of us of being conspiracy theorists, Chicken Littles, etc. They believed the official narrative. I didn't. I believed Covid19 was an act of war created in a bioweapons lab. I also believed that Covid19 stood for Certificate of Vaccine ID AI. Why? Based on my study of the word and prophecy I had determined that the global pandemic indicated that the Day of the Lord was at hand. Before you can have the mark of the beast you need a quantum computer, a network of satellites to cover the globe (Starlink) and AI to manage this. Before you can have AI you need to gather data to train the AI. Covid19 was that operation gathering data to train AI. For example making people wear masks for stupid reasons would identify who the stupid people are and who the non stupid people are.

But I also made a prediction that we would have a second pandemic far worse than Covid19. Why? It was common sense, if the tribulation is at hand we know that during the tribulation there is a terrible, apocalyptic plague. We also know that if they are going to use a vaccine as an excuse to mandate the mark of the beast that they will have to have another plague. Once again I was accused of being Chicken Little, and several people assured us that this would not happen.

So take a look at China, a country where everyone was vaccinated, no one had any option to refuse the vaccine or the boosters. The WHO is now saying the true population of China is 400 million. Hundreds of millions of Chinese have "disappeared".

https://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread1354723/pg1


What we have are people talking about what they want to happen, not about what God's will is. They don't know the Bible, they don't know the season, and they therefore do not understand the events unfolding.

I have run a thread saying the greatest depression is coming. Why? Because I liken the rapture to the crucifixion of Jesus. Prior to the crucifixion Jesus flipped the money changers table. Right now the money changers table is the US dollar.

China's economy is in total crisis because of the Trump tariffs. Turkey's Lira has crashed. What is happening with gold is absolute proof countries are abandoning the US dollar for gold.


Are they ashamed for being wrong? No, instead they accuse me of being wrong.

False Prophets (11)

James 5:1 Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you.

In the end the lies, deceit, and scams will catch up to the false prophets. We all want to see the judgment come on them immediately, but this is far more terrifying. They see that they sliding off the side of a cliff, there is nothing they can do to stop it, but it is in slow motion. This gives them plenty of time to see the miseries that are coming upon them. Madoff, Fauci, Epstein, they all saw the miseries coming upon them months before they came. They probably had many sleepless nights, a lot of panic attacks.

2 Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. 3 Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire.

Gold does not corrode. Silver will tarnish but that doesn't damage it, you can simply polish it. But this isn't "gold" that is corroding it is "their gold". Their gold refers to the scam they are running that is getting them rich. Think about the telephone, the first ones were indestructible, they would last an entire lifetime and then they still work. They work when the power goes out. But the rich have learned you don't get rich by selling something that will last a lifetime, you get rich by selling something that you will have to buy again, and again and again. That works for a short period of time, but eventually "your gold and silver will have corroded", everyone will see the scam, the corrosion will be evidence against you.

You have laid up treasure in the last days.


The rich think their treasure will save them in the last days when judgment comes. That is how it has worked for thousands of years. "You get the justice you can afford". The rich have a hundred ways to avoid being convicted of crimes.

4 Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.

What is Social Security? The government keep back a portion of their wages supposedly for their retirement. But that is a fraud. They use your money, they replace it with IOUs. Social Security is not investing your money, the entire thing is a ponzi scheme, your retirement benefit is paid by someone else who is working. We see this all the time where the retirement accounts are pilfered.

5 You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

The Day of the Lord is the day of slaughter for false prophets.

6 You have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you.

These lies are not harmless. Fauci is probably the biggest mass murderer in human history. He didn't work alone, but neither did Hitler. Lies have consequences and if you tell lies you must be held accountable for the consequences.

False Prophets (12)

But false prophets are not the only ones who reap, genuine prophets of the Lord will also reap.

James 5:7 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord.

There are a lot of people who are complaining because this blog and many other Youtube channels as well have been warning of the Lord's coming and yet He still has not come.

See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains.

One harvest will receive the early rain and one harvest will receive the late rain. It isn't the same crop. Joel talks about the former and the latter rain. The former rain is in the summer and the latter rain is in early spring. The church age began with the former rain during Pentecost and the beginning of Acts. That was right after the Lord ascended to the heavens. The latter rain is in the first month of the year, that is right after the rapture and those saints ascend to heaven. So yes, the harvest is the focus, but you can look at the crops every day and see how close you are to the harvest. Every day you can see you are one day closer to the harvest.

8 You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

It is "at hand". That is like saying it is next door. Could be next week, or next month or next year. The book of Joel tells us when the Day of the Lord is at hand, it is when you see a worldwide pandemic which shuts down the economy for the first time. Joel is very clear, it will be an event that they never saw before in history. Yes, we have had epidemics and pandemics. We had the Spanish flu, but they didn't shut down the worlds economy, it was fifty years before anyone even figured out that it was a pandemic. We had bubonic plague and black plague but they also did not shut down the world's economy. They were localized. Covid19 was the first time we ever saw the entire world respond to a virus by shutting down their economies. Joel tells us very clearly that that is a sign that the Day of the Lord "is at hand" or "next door".

9 Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door.

Their has been a whole lot of grumbling against one another among Christians since that time. Maybe concerning the pandemic, maybe concerning the vaccine, maybe concerning President Biden or President Trump, etc. It seems Christians have forgotten that we are not the judge, we are witnesses. The whole world is agitated because the judge is at the door about to return.

10 As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 Behold, we consider those blessed who remained steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.

This is what the Lord said about John the Baptist. He was not a reed blown in the wind, he was not some rich guy wearing fancy clothes. A real prophet stands strong in the midst of the wind. He can be like David's mighty man Shammah the son of Agee who when everyone else fled he stood his ground, he refused to flee, he struck down many Philistines and he wrought a great victory. This is an example of what it means to remain steadfast.

False Prophets (13)

This is the one thing that False prophets do that is absolutely conclusive.

James 5:12 But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation.

If a false prophet requires a loyalty oath to himself that is the one thing that you should never accept. Hitler required his men to give him a loyalty oath, and the Antichrist will require this as well. The mark of the beast is a loyalty oath on steroids. The minute anyone wants you to pledge a loyalty oath to them that is the minute you need to leave.

False Prophets (14)

James 5:13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

False prophets are revealed by their fruits and by the works of the flesh. Genuine prophets are also revealed by their daily living. It is composed of prayer and praise. Signs and wonders will follow those who pray the prayer of faith. It is not just that the sick are healed, but also that the sinners are forgiven.

16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.

The prayer of a righteous person has great power. When Jesus healed the blind man the pharisees tried to condemn him but the blind man said that God does not hear sinners. The fact that a man who had been born blind had been healed, that was proof that Jesus was not unrighteous.

17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. 18 Then he prayed again, and heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.

I want you to think about this. Israel was an agricultural nation. If Elijah starts to pray that it doesn't rain and it doesn't rain that day no one cares. If it doesn't rain for a whole week, no one cares. But after a month some people will express concern. After two months you have a drought, after three months the government starts taking actions to conserve water. At this time the religious leaders are all holding prayer meetings for rain. After six months no one is laughing anymore. All these religious leaders are being exposed because God is not listening to them. They keep promising things will get better and every day the drought is getting worse. After a year Elijah has made his point, everyone in the nation will now be angry with him. They will want to stop him at any cost. After two years people will want to kill him. After three years he will be on the most wanted list down at the Post Office. Are you willing to be that hated in order to turn the nation back to the Lord?

This is the contrast, Jesus told us that everyone speaks well of false prophets, but Elijah he was a real prophet and everyone wanted to kill him.

False Prophets (15)

There is no "above all" in revealing a genuine prophet. However, there is a "covering of a multitude of sins".

19 My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, 20 let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

Do you understand what James just said to conclude his epistle? He just said that this entire five chapters on false prophets is talking about himself and about each one of us. Every single one of us is guilty of the things in this epistle. However, if we will confess, and repent and turn from our ways we will have a ministry where we can help others, like ourselves, who wandered from the truth and bring them back. You aren't covering their sins, their sins are washed away by the blood of Jesus. You are covering your sins for having wandered from the truth yourself.

It seems everyone is going to need to know this and to be able to discern false prophets during the tribulation. This Pdf is 32 pages on this subject. I kept it to false prophets and didn't get into discerning liars, I thought that would make it too long. This Pdf is the 15 posts on False prophets in this blog.

Here is the Pdf on the evidence that the rapture is the last day of Adar

Everything Points to the last day of Adar

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VQ4UbivcX_690JdTPk-_h6gDvQOK3zdF/view?usp=sharing

Everyone has been warned and should be prepared.

1. You want black plastic and duct tape to tape up the windows of your home during the three days of darkness.

2. You need enough candles for the three days but an oil lamp would be better.

3. You need something to read for those three days. I would recommend a King James Bible. I will also include Pdfs of this blog, but any good spiritual book that you trust, could be a biography of a man of God. I would focus on prayer and fasting for the three days, but you can also probably read two or three biographies during this time as well.

4. Plenty of bottled water.

Make sure everything is fully charged. When you see the dancing lights you have a few more hours to get the stuff charged up.

It would probably be advisable at this time to put up signs that say "Jesus Christ is Lord and King of this house" and tape them to the doors and windows when you see the dancing lights. This will keep demons and fallen angels away. Also it is very likely that the darkness will begin at 12 noon Jerusalem time. So you can use that to guesstimate how much time you have.

If you are new to this blog

These are Pdfs anyone can download of all my posts.

The Holy Bible -- King James Version

251 Bible verses on that describe when the rapture is

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DD4uTLBu6cPeOQFYYQYmrocCzAWzRLiI/view?usp=sharing

We always hear that no one knows when the rapture will be. Of course the Lord never
said no one knows the year or the season, just the day and the hour. But suppose that
verse means “no one verse knows”. You see you can get one verse in Hosea that does
point to the year and you can get one verse in Amos that does point to the season and
one verse in Jeremiah that does point to the season. Now imagine each of these 108
Bible verses tell us something, none of them tell us “the day or the hour” but they each
narrow down the possible days and hours. In other words they could be a filter
removing days and hours that don’t fit.

This is a Pdf that discusses how to discern a false prophet, it also discusses several key verses on the timing of the rapture as well as Ken Peters dream, the writing on the Wall sign and a few other relevant points about thanksgiving, and the Pact for the Future.

Writing on the Wall Sign

Here is a summary of what I posted on this blog concerning the Writing on the Wall sign along with what I have shared on Daniel.

A Letter to those left behind after the rapture

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dM18beTF9Jka3w8XUk10ARkI-cYnltH5/view?usp=sharing

I based most of my letter on the Gospel according to Mark and the Book of Acts.

We are at war -- our enemies are already destroying our communications satellites.

Because of this the internet could go down at any time.

Therefore I expect this forum and especially this blog will be censored and unavailable. After the rapture the internet, TV and radio will all go dark for about 3 weeks, and when it comes back up it will be run by quantum computers giving the Antichrist total control over what everyone can see. As a result I have created these Pdfs. I recommend you download them to a computer or flash drive. This is not because of my interpretation of the word but rather because these all are filled with the word of God. If you are using an online Bible you will greatly appreciate having something like this. Plus, for those who are newly saved it will be an example of how you can read the Bible. I think it will give you something you can read during those three weeks and can help fill you with faith for anyone who is left behind.

We have a few thousand new visitors since the last time I posted these. These are here for anyone to download. In a very short time frame the internet will be fully censored of material on the Bible.

Index of Bible References volumes 1-5

I would have done this for all of them but ran out of time. However, it does help those who are interested in a particular verse to find the verse and what is said about it. One reason I did this was so I could look for verses that had not been referenced.

For those who love the Lord's appearing

This is only for those who love the Lord's appearing. It is quite similar to the recent Pdfs I have posted but I have added a few things so that it is now 94 pages.

Anyway, do not read this if you are one of those servants that

say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;

Finally, I have been locked out of this Gmail account where these are all posted. So I suspect very shortly these will be taken down as well. However, I have accessed them this morning so they are still up. But at the moment you can download them.

When I was first saved I was told to read and pray over this every day for a month

Ephesians 1:15 For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love[f] toward all the saints, 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Who is the Great Babylon

I have heard many different theories, and every theory I have heard has been based on the Bible, but none of them put together all the pieces.

Matthew 1:11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

This is the first use of Babylon in the New Testament and it is used three times in chapter 1 of Matthew, every time with a reference to this word translated here as "deportation" (metoikesia).

Definition of metoikesia -- removal from one abode to another, esp. a forced removal

In the Old Testament there was a removal of people from Israel to Babylon. How about in the church age? This is a key criteria to identify Babylon in the New Testament. I think it is simple to eliminate Iraq, in all of the church history there has not been a great removal of people from one place to Iraq. I think we can also eliminate the Vatican. They might be the puppeteer but certainly there has been no great removal of people to go live in the Vatican. In fact, when I visited Taiwan and Asia that is what struck me, how homogenous the population was. There has not been a great removal of people to go live in Asia. No, during the last two thousand years there has been one great removal of people to go live in the New World. That can refer to both North and South America, but primarily it would refer to the US.

2 Kings 17:24 And the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the people of Israel. And they took possession of Samaria and lived in its cities.

This is the first mention of Babylon in the Old Testament. We can therefore view modern Israel as being referred to here. When Israel was formed there was a removal of Jews from all over the world to the country, not as a Holy expression of God but rather as a mixture of pagan religions with the worship of God, hence "Samaria".

These are the two major "carrying away" of people during the church age.

Who is the Great Babylon (part 2)

Acts 7:43 You took up the tent of Moloch and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made to worship; and I will send you into exile beyond Babylon.’

This is the only reference in the book of Acts, and it is past tense, and it is from Saint Stephen prior to his martyrdom. I view Acts as giving us a picture of the tribulation just as Ecclesiastes says: that which has been is that which shall be. The church age begins in the same way it will end. Stephen depicts the martyrs during the tribulation and Babylon is judged at the start, so his reference indicates why those who are left behind are left behind. He gives two reasons. First they took up the tent of Moloch. This is a reference to infanticide. Abortion is the modern equivalent. But "You took up" is not a reference to Pagans but to the people of God. Therefore this can apply equally to Christians and Jews during the church age. Both of these groups have covenants with God that would condemn idol worship and child sacrifice. Once again, this can apply to both the US and Israel. The second reason is they took of the star of your god Rephan. Anyone who knows the history of "Christmas" knows that the pagan origin of the star put on top of the tree is the Star Rephan. Now as a child I was taught that this star was the star of Bethlehem. "To the pure all things are pure". But trying to make Christmas a Christian holiday has never worked. Yes, there is wonderful worship of the Lord's incarnation, and beautiful hymns. But there is also Santa, an anagram for Satan, flying reindeer (a mockery of the rapture), a thief in the night who comes down the chimney and replaces our promises from God with junk from the mall, elves (magical creatures who depict demons and fallen angels hidden in the ice), a letter to Santa (teaching children to pray for things, that is to ask amiss). This is a holiday that celebrates lying, it is wrapped up in lies, and children learn to not trust their parents because they are liars. Children also assume these stories are all Biblical and therefore the Bible is also a lie. People worship these images that they made. Think of all the Christmas shows that they watch each year religiously. Every kid in America knows about the grinch, but few know that Christmas is not a Biblical holiday.

Without a doubt this doesn't just apply to the US but even more the Vatican and the Catholic church. Who do you think is the puppeteer pulling the strings? The celebration of Christmas as a Christian holiday is relatively new, taking off in England at the time of Queen Victoria.

At first Christmas seems magical, beautiful lights, the tree, the stockings, the stories. But eventually you realize the whole thing is just one big sham to push people to buy junk from the Mall. FDR made Thanksgiving a national holiday to promote people to go out and buy at the start of the Christmas season. It used to be people went around singing Christmas carols, hymns of God for the most part. But that has become exceedingly rare these days. Yes, the Christmas eve service may be beautiful at the church, but the reality is only about 1% of Americans go to that service while far more than that are going to Christmas parties with drunken excess and debauchery.

In the Old Testament we have this reference in the Psalms

137:1 By the waters of Babylon,
there we sat down and wept,
when we remembered Zion.
2 On the willows there
we hung up our lyres.
3 For there our captors
required of us songs,
and our tormentors, mirth, saying,
“Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”


Songs of mirth are a good reference to Christmas songs. 49% of the world's Jews live in the US, the other 49% live in Israel. This is a good description of Jews in America. They are like captives required to sing these Christmas songs and now because of DEI we require the Jews at this time to sing one of their songs. Growing up my best friend was named Joshua and he was a Russian Jew. They found it very difficult to live in the US during the time of Christmas. I think that was the hardest time for him.

So this now ties the three big theories together. The Vatican is not where people were carried off to, but they are the ones teaching others to carry the star of Rephan. So far everything is pointing to the US as the Great Babylon, while Israel is like Samaria was, the land being repopulated with a mixed multitude from Babylon.

Who is the Great Babylon (part 3)

1 Peter 5:13 She who is at Babylon, who is likewise chosen, sends you greetings, and so does Mark, my son.

This is the only reference in the epistles. Peter started this epistle writing to those in the dispersion. He was writing from Babylon. Think of the church as a dandelion. When Jesus was crucified the seed was planted. At pentecost it sprouted. Then in 70 AD God blew on Jerusalem and all the seeds were scattered to the different parts of the world. Babylon depicts a great empire with all the languages of the world. This is what we saw during the church age. The Bible has been translated into 3,756 languages based on one google search. That was the point of Pentecost, everyone heard the good news in their native language. Peter was a great evangelist and this depicts the message to the world coming from him and he is in Babylon.

You could argue that the Vatican has been responsible for sending out the gospel message to the whole earth. Perhaps. You could look at Britain as the place where great evangelical missions first came from. But today it is absolutely clear that the US is the base of the evangelistic message going out. Youtube and the Internet were both started here. Gideon's began here and have sent out 2.6 billion bibles worldwide. Evangelists, missions, and the word of God are all being sent out from the US, not from Britain, and certainly not from the Vatican who have actually condemned Evangelical Christians.

Isaiah 13:19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the splendor and pomp of the Chaldeans, will be like Sodom and Gomorrah when God overthrew them.

You can say a lot of things about Iraq or the Vatican but this does not describe them. It does apply to the US and to Israel. Isn't it interesting that Babylon, generally considered to be both a city and a kingdom is compared to two cities. There may be many countries that have treaties with Israel, and are on good terms with them. But when it comes to countries who stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel it is only the US. Today we think of the US and Israel, and so far all these verses in both the Old and New Testament concerning Babylon describe the US and Israel. Does the Catholic church play a role? Sure, but the Vatican is not the land of Babylon. Yes, I know we will come to the verse about seven hills, but we have not got there yet.

Who is the Great Babylon (part 4)

Revelation 14:8 Another angel, a second, followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of the passion[a] of her sexual immorality.”

This doesn't simply say that Babylon is like Sodom and Gomorrah. That could apply to many places, Israel, France, Italy, Greece, Thailand, etc. No, this says that she makes the nations drink the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality. No one can say that Thailand, Greece or Israel is making anyone drink the wine of her sexual immorality. There are French movies, and Italian movies, but if you are going to ascribe this to the movie industry then we are talking about Hollywood. Interestingly, much of Hollywood is controlled by people who claim they are Jewish (though it is more likely they are descended from Esau and not Jacob). So you can tie Hollywood to both the US and to the Jews. It may also be that behind the scenes the Catholic bank is financing movies that do this, but to be fair I have no proof. My point is this verse also points to the US as the land of Babylon while not ruling out the references to Israel and the Vatican.

Isaiah 13:19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the splendor and pomp of the Chaldeans, will be like Sodom and Gomorrah when God overthrew them.

OK, we can rule out Iraq once and for all. No one is looking at Iraq and claiming it is the glory of Kingdoms. This can only refer to the US at this moment in time. Chaldeans are always likened to great warriors. Ever since WW2 the US military has been seen as the elite among the elite when it comes to warriors. Our Army rangers and Navy seals are held in the highest regard among all militaries. The Israeli military is also highly regarded. But this would not refer to the Catholic church or the Vatican. Even if the Vatican is corrupt and profligate, it is not like Sodom and Gomorrah, nor does it have a highly regarded military. This definitely does not refer to France and Italy. Ever since WW2 their armies are frequently mocked and ridiculed. No one would liken those two countries to the "glory of kingdoms". They have some nice artwork and operas, but their economies are nothing to be boasting about.

Who is the Great Babylon (part 5)

Revelation 16:19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath.

In the Bible the great city is Jerusalem, it is not Rome, or London or Washington DC. This is confirmed when it also says "and the cities of the nations fell". The nations refer to every country other than Israel. So at the same time that Jerusalem in split into three parts cities like London, Paris, Hong Kong, and Berlin fall. And, God remembers Babylon. Clearly Babylon is not Jerusalem, it is not Israel. We have already ruled out Rome and Iraq. The full fury of God's wrath is drained on Babylon. Once again this would put the US at the top of the list of who the Bible is talking about. At the time of John "all the nations" would have included everyone in the Eastern hemisphere but not the US. They were not a nation at that time and they did not have any cities at that time. Rome was a city, you would think if John is talking about "the cities of the nations" that would certainly include Rome.

Isaiah 14:22 “I will rise up against them,” declares the Lord of hosts, “and will cut off from Babylon name and remnant, descendants and posterity,” declares the Lord.

Babylon being destroyed is not Armageddon. It takes place at the start of the tribulation, not at the end. Therefore how could it be anywhere in Europe. The Antichrist will definitely make Europe and the Middle East the center of his kingdom. But this verse says that the name will be cut off, the remnant will be cut off, the descendants will be cut off and the posterity will be cut off. Look at the book of Revelation and all the prophecies of the day of the Lord, the one thing that is not mentioned is the US, they have been cut off.

There are many people who have had similar dreams and visions for the Last 40+ years.
Longer than that. Many have set dates for the coming of Christ that of course didnt come to pass. Miller is perhaps the most well known. Christ said to watch and be prepared. Also to beware of false prophets.
