The unrelenting rains continue throughout the world, accompanied by huge hailstones and tornadoes.
While Satan goes around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, distracting, deceiving, and discouraging mankind – God is also at work trying to wake up those who have fallen prey to the Evil One with rain and other warning signs that should make us want to stop and examine our belief system and way of life. These events have been creeping up on us over time and are increasing in number and intensity.
Just when I thought I should take a break from writing about the incredible Biblical prophetic portents taking place across the planet, I checked the internet as I do every morning and every night, and the headlines hit me with the force of a speeding train. I knew then that I had to sit down and continue writing to those who are still living under a rock as well as those who are distracted by everyday living to notice the Biblical signs of the times we live in – The End Times.
It’s not just me overreacting to the calamity that befalls us, but many others are beginning to wake up to the reality that the Bible is proving to be true in every respect. In the Bible, the book of Daniel and the book of Revelation highlight the events that we are experiencing today.
So, fasten your seatbelts – here we go.
Los Angeles is experiencing another round of flooding, and there is flooding in Houston, Texas, as well. China, Russia, and Pakistan are drowning in water; there is flooding everywhere. Tornadoes and large hail stones continue to pummel the earth. Along with the physical signs that something even more devastating is at play just around the corner, there are many social events – like social unrest, more noticeable in the protests of the foolish young who think that shouting and setting fires is going to swing others to their way of thinking. It’s a tug of war on college campuses with spurts of Christian revival and baptisms here and there.
But violent protests far outweigh those events with hundreds being arrested. (I can’t wait to see if they will be given stiff prison sentences like the Jan 6 people who have been jailed.) And last but not least is antisemitism, with Jews being persecuted across the planet. In the book of Deuteronomy, God says he will turn against the Jewish people to the extent that they deny Him and make them a scapegoat to other nations.
Meanwhile, the Israeli war heats up with Hamas attacking Israel from Lebanon and Ukraine, and Russia steps up its war, killing and maiming thousands. What a mess!
I called my friend Rick D. in Miami to see how he was doing after the loss of his mother and father, and we started talking – just like “old times” when we discussed deep spiritual matters late into the night. The troubles then were a cakewalk in the park compared to the troubles we see today. Without prompting, Rick talked about the craziness that was sweeping the world, a world where men are now thought to be able to give birth.
John B., my collaborator in England, reports that Ezekiel 38:8 tells us what has to be in place for the Gog Magog invasion to occur. “After many days, you will be called to arms,” referring to the Gog coalition. “In future years, you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety.”
Neither of them has anything good to report on their end.
Also, this week, Time magazine published an article titled “A Million-dollar Middle East Peace Plan,” which I encourage you to read. It lays out a scenario for peace between Israel and its Middle East enemies that is chillingly like what the Bible predicts. The author, Kai Bird, says, “This conflict is so dangerous that the time has come for the international community to impose a solution.”
A compelled solution to the nations? That is precisely what Daniel 9:27 says, “He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’” But who’s the “He” in this scenario? I leave that for you to speculate.
Churches in the US are closing down, and fewer people attend church than before. In 2019, over 4,500 Protestant churches closed, but only 3,000 new churches opened. Similarly, according to recent studies, 92% of United States churches had 250 or fewer people attend weekly worship services. There has been a noticeable trend in recent years: an increasing number of individuals are opting out of regular church attendance. From societal changes and shifting cultural norms to personal beliefs and experiences, the landscape of spirituality is evolving, and with it, so are the dynamics of communal worship.
While mankind was given the privilege to share the Good news of the gospel with their fellow man, we humans have desecrated and bungled that privilege with our typical desire for monetary gain and power.
But while many churches are closing for lack of leadership and hypocrisy, God is on the move to get people to repent on His own, so I’m able to close this article with a good report. Many young people in some universities are turning to Christ and being baptized in droves here in this country. This goes to show that people are responding to God’s global threats and calamities, so let’s keep praying for the salvation of mankind like never before while taking cover under God’s wings.
My book report:
In his latest book, Senator Josh Hawley writes about Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs. This jibes with what is happening with young American men today. It’s too bad that the rioting students haven’t read this book. Josh is a good communicator and has a good head on his shoulders (as every good servant of God should). Most of what he teaches comes straight from Biblical precepts and stories, albeit this book may be too little too late in arriving. Still, though, it’s better than nothing.
