BIBLE STUDY

20 CHESVAN 5774

THE SIGNS OF THE ANTICHRIST Father you created the seasons, the heavens and all that is in the earth and all beauty derives from you. Thank you for your great plan of salvation and the promise of your soon coming great and glorious kingdom where there will be tears no more, but everlasting joy. This study is committed into your hands with our prayers for your blessing, guidance and wisdom. Satan is busy at work deceiving the world. He has brought a great deception upon the people in this world and totally twisted things around with his lies, so that people are confused and call the exact opposite from what they really are –up down and down up, forward backward and backward forward, black white and white black, righteousness sin and sin righteousness. The Bible tells us the biggest deception coming in these last days will be the coming of an AntiChrist which means one who is anti-Christian and comes against Christ and teaches against the laws of God. Spiritually speaking, the coming Antichrist is spiritually Satan’s counterpart on this earth. In fact God calls him the son of perdition (destruction). We need to understand that we are a distinct minority on the earth today. We are a very small minority even among “Christians” who say they are Christian, and most of them go to church presumably on Sunday. Some who are not so religious may go once or twice a year on Easter Sunday or Christmas. They keep the traditions taught and inherited from their forefathers in generations past about Jesus who lived a perfectly sinless life and died for mankind’s sins. It is interesting that the world’s so-called version of Christianity is becoming an anachronism. The world is now a post-Christian society today (after the Christian age). Christians have become a minority instead of a majority, even in America and organized church attendance is declining. There is a significant movement happening where Christians are meeting privately in small groups of 20 or less weekly. The Christian consensus and secularism are at crossroads. President Obama has said America is no longer just a Christian nation and his administration has subtly worked to expand the scope of protected civil rights running roughshod over religious liberty and abandoning the country’s founding values. Opponents have accused them of imposing one set of religious prejudices on an increasingly pluralistic population. Personal interests and pleasures have become more important today to people than the knowledge of God and taking an interest in proving all things in order to know the truth of a matter. This is a dangerous stance; however, we are living in a dangerous time and world. 2 Timothy 3:1—“Know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, with-out self control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness, but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.”

1Timothy 6:9-10—“Those that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” People today want money, which is especially characteristic of those in high political office, lawyers, and big business men inclined to think much of themselves Matthew 12:31-32—“All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaks a word against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, and neither in the world to come.” Verse 36—“Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account for in the Day of Judgment. For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.” Today, cursing and blasphemy is heard on prime time television. It used to be that there were laws against public blasphemy. In 2001, my wife and I were on our way to visit Virginia Beach near Norfolk where I spent part of my childhood days when my dad was stationed in the Navy on the Battleship Missouri. As we drove along the white sandy beaches of Daytona, Florida, we turned the radio on and heard the shocking news of 9/11 as terrorists flew planes one and two into the N.Y. Twin Trade Towers. Later as we walked along the main street in Virginia Beach, I noticed many of the store front window displays actually had signs posted that said, “NO CURSING, NO SWEARING, NO FOUL LANGUAGE ALLOWED!” This was the law and a fifty dollar minimum fine was required of all who broke that law. I was impressed! In all my travels far and near I have never seen such signs except in Virginia Beach. Romans 3:9, 10 —“Both Jews and Gentiles are all under sin. As it is written, ‘There is none righteous, no, not one that: (1) understands (2 ) seeks after God (3) does good – they have gone out of the WAY and become altogether unprofitable (4) their throat is an open sepulcher—their tongues full of deceit and poison (5) whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness (6) their feet are swift to shed blood (7) destruction and misery are in their ways (8) the WAY of peace, they have not known. Verse 18—THERE IS NO FEAR OF GOD BEFORE THEIR EYES.” The men negotiating “the road map to peace” in the Middle East have no idea of how to have peace. What is the key to peace? Romans 3:18 answers this question—the way of peace is the fear of God. Satan, father of the lie, who has deceived the entire world, appears as an angel of righteousness. But he does not teach the laws of God that are the way to peace. If one does not know that God exists, then that person is going to go his own way and do what seems right in his own eyes. From where do wars and fighting (quarrels) come from among you? James 4:1—“Do they not come from your desires that battle within you? You lust for something but don’t get it. You kill and covet, but you cannot have what you want. You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.” Verse 4—“You adulterous people, don’t you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scriptures say without reason that the spirit that dwells in us envies intensely (lusts to enjoy)?”

It is very simple. People do not stand in awe of God and do not keep His commandments. A child can understand this if they are taught. Proof of God should be the fundamental foundation of a home and knowing the plan of God and the way of salvation. Every person has to be taught why they need to master their emotions and develop self-control of their feelings that leads to only good actions toward others—not to harm or injure, and to promote themselves above others, but to show concern and love for other people—the way of giving. If we are going to be blessed by God, we are going to keep his commandments. Those who deny God’s truth will be cursed. This week, I heard from a member who was able to keep only part of the Feast of Tabernacles this year so he had excess second tithes left over and wanted to know what should be done with the remainder. What does the Bible say to do with the excess second tithes? I have written an article on second tithes, and also one on “third tithes” mentioned in the Bible. The former Worldwide Church of God taught that there were three tithes, which is not true. The Bible does not teach that. The first tithe belongs to God which is ten percent of your increase. It goes to his ministry and the work He is doing on the earth. There is another ten percent that the Bible talks about that you are to save and use to keep in celebrating his annual holy day festivals, especially the Festival of Tabernacles which is the feast of harvest. This is explained in Deuteronomy 14:14-16, and also Deuteronomy 16. Then there is a year called the year of tithing. On the third and sixth years of the seven year Sabbatical cycle you are to take your second and give it to the poor in your community, the stranger, the Levite (Ministry), the widows and orphans—people in your midst that are in need of help. Basically, that was God’s welfare plan for the needy in his society. In this country, we have government, taxes, welfare programs, and social services. Every seven years is a Shemita year and the land is to be given complete rest that seventh year. This specifically applies to the land of Israel. On the seventh year, Elul 29 the nation of Israel is to observe a release of all debts. Zachariah 14: 14-16--God intends that his laws will not just apply to Israel in the Millennium, but will apply to all nations of the world learning of God who will come up to Jerusalem to observe the annual holy days during the 1,000 year reign of Messiah. Inquiring minds want to know the truth. Most churches are not looking outside of the doctrines, traditions, and dogmas inherited and which they have accepted from their founding fathers and do not want to hear otherwise. Isaiah 28:15—the time is coming when people are going to confess “we have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood, have we hid ourselves.” John 8:44—keep in mind that Satan is the god of this world, Prince of the power of the air. Satan, the devil, Christ said, “was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” “Because I tell you the truth, you believe me not.” 1 John 2:18--“Dear children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.” The word antichrist is capitalized (A) here meaning that it is a specific individual prophesied to come in the last days who will lead the world astray, who is anti God and Christian religion even though he 3

appears to be a Christian. John says “went out from us” but went out into error of wickedness and lawlessness. What are the characteristics of this Antichrist who is coming? How will you and I recognize him? The world will not recognize him. The world does not believe the word of God and will not know what God says, prophetically speaking. Remember, the Antichrist is going to be a ruler of the world. God specifically states attributes that the Antichrist will have. The world stage is set for the appearance of the Antichrist and the world is ready for a super leader to bring all the nations together as one to get the world out of its super mess. 1 John 4:1—“Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but try the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God. Every spirit that confesses (acknowledges) that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus, is not of God.” Verses 7-8—“Everyone who loves has the Spirit of God in him (has no fear). Whoever does not love, does not know God. This is the spirit of the Antichrist and is now already in the world.” Verse 15—“Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God’s Spirit dwells in him.” Part of the understanding of this verse is the belief and understanding that the Christ comes into our flesh through the Holy Spirit and dwells in us. What are the signs that help to identify the Antichrist? One of the signs of the Antichrist is that he will show by his life and his teachings a calloused disregard for the things of God and Christ. He will not acknowledge that Christ is the Son of God and has come in the flesh and through his Holy Spirit dwells in us. The Antichrist will be one who disregards the Christian religion and disregards the Bible and mocks the Old and New Testaments. You can apply that carefully to world figures today and see who is the most outspoken against God; who once claimed to be a Christian, but has spoken derisively about God in public. Consider who fits that sign and description. If you have eyes to perceive and the mind to comprehend, the Antichrist is here today—well on his way, but not yet fully made manifest. Ezekiel 21:25-26—“O profane (corrupt) and wicked prince of Israel, whose day has come, whose time of punishment has reached its climax, This is what the Sovereign Lord says, ‘Remove the diadem, take off the crown. It will not be as it was: exalt the humble (lowly) and abase him that is high. Overturn, overturn, I will overturn it: and it shall be no more, until he comes to whom it rightfully belongs; and I will give it to him’.” It is talking about an end-time prince of Israel who is wicked and corrupt and who God is going to remove from office and have the scepter taken away from him. This end-time wicked and profane prince ties in with Revelation13 and the beast kingdom coming out of the sea. The Antichrist is going to be the ruler-king of the end-time world kingdom being set up today in our midst that the Bible calls Babylon the Great. Revelation 13:1-4—John says, “I saw a beast coming out of the sea having ten horns and seven heads (divisions), with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. I saw one of the heads of the beast as if it had been wounded to death, and his deadly wound was healed. The whole 4

world marveled (at this miracle) and followed the beast.” Men worshipped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?” This beast is the Antichrist, the one who is going to lead the world in war against Christ and his angels at Christ’s return. Revelation 13:5—“He was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and to exercise his authority for forty-two months. He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation (foundation) of the world.” He will continue in office for forty-two months (3 ½ years) ruling the world. Notice: (1) He is going to have some type of fatal encounter. In Ezekiel 21:25 the word used for profane here is an interesting word in the Hebrew that has several meanings and can mean fatally wounded unto death. So this end-time prince of Israel (the beast of Rev.13) is going to have an incident apparently causing impending death, but miraculously lives instead. It appears that this Antichrist has slavish devotion on the one-hand and bitter opposition on the other hand with his life in jeopardy. As a world ruler he will be very security conscious for his own safety and have continuously twenty-four hour security guard protection. In WW II, Adolph Hitler’s own generals tried to kill him and he barely escaped with his life so Hitler was extremely careful and hired personal guards to protect him. This same thing applies to this coming Antichrist world ruler. (2) “His mouth speaks great pompous words and blasphemies against God, his name, his tabernacle and those who dwell in heaven.” (3) “It was granted to him to make war with the saints and overcome them.” (4) “Authority was given him over every tribe, tongue and nation.” (5) “All who dwell on the earth will worship him and give him honor whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the earth.” The world is going to love Antichrist because he promises them everything telling the “poor and have not’s” they are entitled—telling them you haven’t been getting a fair deal. In a case like this, people look to the government to be the “great giver and supporter”. The government taxes the people, even reaching into the future generations in order to continue to supply its “free” services. The Roman Empire gave its people free bread and circuses in order to keep the population under control. Today, America has spectator sports of football, basketball, and softball that fill huge stadiums with people while vendors sell peanuts, hotdogs, popcorn and drinks. The religious freedom we still have is slowly being eroded and legislated away by increased governmental laws and Supreme Court decisions. For those who really have repented of their sins, accepted Christ as their Savior and live by his word daily and keep his commandments are the ones Antichrist is going to hate and make war with them. 5

Another beast is going to rise up after the first one. Revelation 13:11—John says, “Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.” Two horns mean this is a religious figure and dragon is the symbol of Satan the devil. So he speaks the words and doctrinal teachings of demons that end in death. What are those teachings and doctrines? Live as you choose, suit yourself, do whatever pleases you. He places doubt: “Did God really say..? You will not surely die. You do not have to keep his commandments—they are too restrictive and binding.” People fall for the devil’s doctrine. Proverbs 14:12—“there is a way that seems right to a man but the end thereof is death.” There is a penalty for disobedience to God’s laws and seeking illicit sex, drugs, alcohol. This penalty is death and loss of eternal life. The devil is behind this second beast who is very anti Christian and is a one-world “religious” leader—Revelation 13:12-17. (1) “The second beast exercised all the power of the first beast in his presence. (2) Causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast whose deadly wound was healed. (3) Performs great signs, and even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. (4) Deceives those who dwell on earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast (5) Orders those who dwell on earth to make an image to the beast that was wounded by the sword yet lived. (6) Given power to give breath to the image of the beast so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. (7) Forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark in his right hand or in his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of the beast.” Verse 18—“This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.” The number of God is 7. The beast is the beast of end-time Babylon the Great. America is modern end-time Babylon –New York City, the world trade system of the world—Europe and England, Germany, United Nations and the Security Council is morphing into end-time Babylon the Great. It has been discovered that the labyrinth of the pages (1000+) of the Obama Affordable Healthcare Bill is now law in the U.S. Nancy Pelosi said, “Don’t worry about what is in it, we will find out what is in it after we pass it”, so Congress passed it without knowing what it contained. There is a provision in it that thirty-six months (3 years) after it becomes law that people might have an RFID chip implanted. Congress has delayed the RFID until the Secretary of Health and Human Services is fully ready to implement the Chip or Patient Identifier, but not later than December 31, 2017. The Affordable Healthcare is a plot that is going to destroy America, and is not affordable. John Adams (1826) said “there are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by sword and the other by debt.” Dr. Benjamin Carson, Sr., is a retired American neurosurgeon who was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom b President George W. Bush. In 2008, the White House awarded Carson the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. After delivering a widely 6

publicized speech at the 2013 National Prayer Breakfast, he became a popular figure in conservative media for his views on social issues and the federal government. Carson was a professor of neurosurgery, oncology, plastic surgery and pediatrics, and the director of pediatric neurosurgery at John Hopkins University. He has authored four bestselling books two of which are about his personal philosophies of success that incorporate hard work and a faith in God. On February 7, 2013, Carson was the keynote speaker at the 2013 National Prayer Breakfast. During his speech, Carson commented on several social and fiscal issues including political correctness, education, the national debt, health care and taxation. Carson stated his solution to healthcare and spoke favorably of the flat tax system, which he prefers to call the “Proportional Tax” based on the Biblical principle of the tithe. The speech was magnified because Carson’s views were generally interpreted to be politically conservative and President Barack Obama was sitting ten feet away. Note: Shortly after this, the IRS has audited him. The encounter came just four months after his speech in February at the National Prayer Breakfast, an address that brought him into the national spotlight and one in which he decried the “moral decay and fiscal irresponsibility” of the U.S. in recent years. Conservative commentators from Rush Limbaugh to Sean Hannity and Neil Cavuto of Fox New praised the speech as speaking “truth to power.” The Wall Street Journal had an op-ed titled “Ben Carson for President,” which stated that Carson “may not be politically correct, but he’s closer to correct than we’ve heard in years.” Columnist Star Parker wrote in a column that ‘Ben Carson owes no apology for honest talk.’ Carson in an interview with Neil Cavuto, said, ‘Somebody has to be courageous enough to stand up to the bullies’.” Writing in the National Review Jonah Goldberg compared Carson to legendary African-American leader Booker T. Washington. The Washington Times (Thursday, October 3, 2013) –By John Solomon and Ben Wolfgang. “The long line of conservatives targeted by the IRS—Franklin Graham, Christine O’Donnell, a pro-marriage group, and now Dr. Ben Carson. The list of conservatives targeted by the Internal Revenue Service for audits, tax-exempt reviews or tax privacy breaches keeps growing, raising fresh questions in Washington about whether a scandal the Obama administration has blamed on bureaucratic incompetence and coincidence may in fact involve something more nefarious. The latest revelation came Thursday from Dr. Carson, the renowned neurosurgeon who told The Washington Times that he was targeted for an audit just months after he gave a speech in front of President Obama that challenged America’s leadership. The agency requested to review his real estate holdings and then conducted a full audit. In the end, the IRS found no wrongdoing, Dr. Carson said, but it raised his suspicions about being singled out for his speech.” The Affordable Healthcare Act has been cited as a tool for wiping out middle class America and causing a government dependent nation where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. In that case, there will be only two tiers in the country, the rich elite and the plebian masses of the poor all beholden to the government. God’s way is capitalism controlled by the laws of God—free enterprise regulated by the laws of God. Micah 4:1-5—“In the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the Lord will be established as chief among the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills, and people shall flow into it. Many nations will come and say, 7

‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.’ The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He will judge between man peoples and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Every man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree and no one will make them afraid, for the Lord of hosts has spoken.” People will own their own property in the Millennium in the kingdom of God and have their own fig tree and their own grapevine—garden. This is God’s system of government and obedience to God’s laws of life which end in peace and love. Unbridled capitalism without God’s laws governing it where he rich get richer and it enslaves the poor is Satan’s way and the way the New World Order is going to turn out ending with the very rich and the very poor economic slaves. The RFID chip will give access to every individual’s personal records, business accounts and medical records and no one can buy or sell or get medical care unless they have the mark of the beast, his name or number of 666. See my articles: The Mark of the Beast (2) The Number of the Beast is 666. This number identifies a system. In ancient times the Chaldeans added up to the number of 666. Latino-Roman Empire added up to 666. The name of the Emperor Nero added up to 666. Today we are the latter day Roman Empire metamorphosed into the end-time New World Order and the RFID chip is part of the medical health legislation which is going to be imposed on our people, or they won’t qualify for healthcare. If you want healthcare, it will be mandatory. Most of the world is looking for some special ID-code, tattoo or barcode that is required for all persons to buy or sell in the system. Now we see that within three years the healthcare service has mandated that every American must be covered with healthcare insurance by the end of 2013 and requires an RIFD implant by 2017 to get healthcare. Tracking of animals and cars has now become “help” for human beings who have Alzheimers, lost children, runaways, and “persons of interest” to the government. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4—“Let no one deceive you by any means for that day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshipped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The Great Apostasy has to occur first and the man of sin revealed. The Greek word for falling away is “apostasia” which means departure from the truth. This is talking about the Antichrist who is going to be revealed. He is going to be a lawless man. His administration is going to be the most lawless administration. He will bend the law, circumvent, go around it, and change the law. What politician had the motto “change that you can believe in!”? Proverbs 24:19 –“my son, do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the wicked; for there will be no prospect for the evil man; the lamp of the wicked will be put out. Fear the Lord and the king. Do not meddle (associate) with those given to change, for their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knows the ruin those two can bring?”

The man of sin means he is a sinner. He flaunts his sin in the face of God and He is a lawless man— the epitome of lawlessness; the destroyer. He sits in the temple, showing himself to be God—Claims to be Messiah.

Mediaite.com (11.26.12—Noah Rothman) “Foxx, calls President Barak Obama ‘our lord and savior’ during his appearance” on the Soul Train Awards 2012 on Sunday in Las Vegas, Nevada.”It’s like church over here. It’s like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama, Foxx joked. Actor and musician Foxx has been a longtime supporter of President Obama’s and publically advocated for his re-election during the 2012 campaign season.” Some people were calling Obama “messiah”. Songs of worship and praise to Barack Obama in local classrooms exploded on the scene during his 2008 presidential campaign (Washingtontimes.com). This is the same thing that school children in Iraq were doing when Sadam Hussein was dictator. The restraint that held back the revelation of the Antichrist appears to be now removed. Obama has been purging generals from the military right and left. The following is a list of US military generals and admirals fired by Obama as of 10/15/13. 1) General Carter Hamm, United States Army... 2) Major General Ralph Baker, United States Army... 3) Brigadier General Bryan Roberts, United States Army...4) Lieutenant General David Holmes Huntoon Jr, United States Army...5) Rear Admiral Charles Gaouette/United States Navy... 6) Vice Admiral Tim Giardina, United States Navy - Deputy Commander of the United States Strategic Command. Commander of the Submarine Group Trident, Submarine Group 9 and Submarine Group 10, where every single one of the 18 Nuclear Submarines with Nuclear Trident Missiles of those three groups were in his command. He was removed from service and fired from the military for the charge of using counterfeit poker chips (not making that up)…7) Major General Gregg A. Sturdevant, United States Marine Corps...8) Major General Charles M.M. Gurganus, United States Marine Corps... 9) Major General Michael Carry, United States Air Force - Commander 20th Air Force in charge of 9,600 people and 450 Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM) at three operational wings and served in both Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. He was fired October 11, 2013, for “Personal Misbehavior” is what was told to ABC News. He and Giardina were both the two top Commanders over the United States Nuclear Arsenal before their dismissal within 48 hours of each other. Looks like Obama is getting rid of the people who had anything to do with Benghazi, or had control over America's nuclear weapons. The military purge could also be the result of Obama's new litmus test: Will you fire on American citizens? http://freepatriot.org/2013/10/13/watch-obama-preparing-mili. There you have it, the signs of the Antichrist prophetically; a man who is present on earth today. Six thousand years are ended since Creation of Adam. This is the time of the end. This the generation that Christ said would see his coming and Israel was reborn as a nation (symbolized by the fig tree) in 1948. In the Bible it states a generation is 70 years. Seventy years from May 14, 1948 when Israel became a state will be May 2018. The prophesies must be fulfilled. At the end is the Great Tribulation. This is year 2013. During the Feast of Tabernacles in 2014 there 9

will be a total eclipse and the moon will appear blood red. That same year in April (2014), there will also be a total eclipse and a blood red moon occurring on the day of Passover. This has not happened since 1967 and the Six Day War, which was a great Prophetic event. The time before that when this happened was in 1948 when Israel became independent as a nation. There are no more anticipated blood red moons anticipated during the holy days of Passover and Tabernacles for a hundred years or more. Antichrist is being revealed, and the restraint being removed. You will see the strength, power and authority of this government magnified. The police departments throughout this nation of America have been supplied with military hardware and armored vehicles militarizing the police. Why? Obama fears the people who carry guns. He wants to pass gun control laws and get rid of citizens’ guns. God doesn’t say join the opposition and rebellion—grab your guns and ammunition. God says be a peace maker and turn the other cheek—submit. If you are compelled to give them your coat, give them your cloak also. Do not resist evil or you may be thrown in jail, sent to a re-education camp, killed or beheaded. God says to give respect to which respect is due, and honor to which honor is due to the authorities over you, unless you are asked to do something contrary to God’s law. If that happens then we must stand up and say, “I must obey God rather than man” and take the consequences. It is better to fear God and die than to fear man and disobey God and be cast into the lake of fire and be burned up and lose out on eternal life. Psalm 27:1-3—“The Lord is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The Lord YHVH is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid? When foes advance against me to eat up my flesh, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart shall not fear. Though war rise against me, even then I will be confident.” Verse 13—“I would have lost heart, unless I believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord. Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your hear. Wait, I say, for the Lord.” Do not let Satan rob you of your salvation. Luke 13—Christ said, “Do you suppose that these Galileans were worse than those other Galileans who suffered death from the Roman governor Pilate. I tell you, no. But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish. Do you think that the eighteen that died when the Tower of Siloam fell were worse than other sinners who; dwell in Jerusalem? I tell you, no. Unless you repent, you will all perish likewise.” We must learn to fear God, not man. Luke 12: 5—“I will show you whom you should fear, or be in awe of. Fear him who, after he has killed has power to cast into hell (Ghenna Fire). Yes, I say unto you, fear him—God.” “Are there not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? Not one of them is forgotten before God. The very hairs of our head are numbered by God. Therefore, do not fear men.
