PROPHETIC NEWS - "...In such an hour as you think not, the Son of Man cometh" Matthew 24:44

In the Book of Daniel, we read, “And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. So he came near where I stood, and when he came, I was afraid and fell on my face; but he said unto me, Understand, oh son of man, for at the time of the end shall be the vision (which Daniel had just seen). Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground, but he touched me and set me upright. And he said, Behold, I will make you know what shall be in the last end of the indignation, for at the time appointed, the end shall be” Daniel 8:16-19. Even though Gabriel gave Daniel the interpretation of his vision, about how the antichrist will come to power and by “peace,” he would “destroy many” (v 25), Daniel said, “And I Daniel fainted and was sick certain days. Afterward, I rose up and did the king’s business and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it” Daniel 8:27. He didn’t have a full understanding of his own vision, even after Gabriel explained it to him (v 20-25), because the vision was actually for a time in the future, beyond Daniel’s lifetime. In fact, Gabriel told Daniel, “…therefore, shut up the vision, for it shall be for many days (in the future)” (v 26). Keeping this thought in mind, let’s take a look at the revelation Gabriel gave to Daniel during his next visit: At the end of the 70-year Babylonian captivity, which had been prophesied by Jeremiah, Daniel went outside to the brooks to pray for Israel. “And I set my face to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth and ashes” Daniel 9:3. Daniel meant business. He didn’t just go outside for a few minutes of prayer, only to turn and go about his business for the day. Daniel put on clothes of humility, he denied himself food and he sat in ashes, a sign of complete contriteness before God. The captivity had ended, according to Jeremiah’s prophetic timeframe, and here was Daniel, in ashes before God, praying (still in Babylon) for God’s forgiveness and blessings upon his people. When we get down to business with God, the visions and angelic visitations will come, that is a fact, and they still happen today. “And I prayed unto the Lord my God and made my confession and said, O Lord the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love Him and to them that keep His commandments” Daniel 9:4. I have to pause here at Daniel’s acclamation, “the great and dreadful God.” This is not a well-publicized attribute of God these days. According to Joel Osteen, who heads perhaps the largest church in America, God is only full of love and there is certainly nothing dreadful about Him. If you have no fear of God, I suppose that would be one’s perspective. Nevertheless, the Word of God tells us that “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” Psalms 111:10. Daniel had enough faith in God to know that He would bring Israel out of captivity, as Jeremiah prophesied, but Daniel was seeking God’s forgiveness and future blessings on a liberated Israel (by faith) and God’s sanctuary, which lay in ruins. “Yea, while I was speaking and praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord my God for the holy mountain (the Temple Mount) of my God; yea, while I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation. And he informed me and talked with me and said, ‘Oh Daniel, I am now come forth to give you skill and understanding. At the beginning of your supplications, the commandment came forth, and I am come to show you, for you are greatly beloved, therefore, understand the matter and consider the vision” Daniel 9:20-23. Wow, isn’t that something? Daniel had one vision, which was profound, but he was confused about it, but he didn’t shake it off, or become discouraged. A while later, he went back to seeking God, repenting for himself and his people, denying himself food, putting on humble sackcloth, sitting in ashes, and he sought the Lord with all of his heart and soul. Now Gabriel is back before Daniel and it’s not even a vision this time, he is before Daniel to tell him how beloved he is and that he has now been sent by God to give Daniel skill and understanding. God said, “But if you seek the Lord your God, you will find Him, if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul” Deuteronomy 4:29. That’s all the room I have for this month, so we can continue this study in November’s letter, God willing, and what a blessed study it will be. In the meantime, God bless you with the Light of the Word, as you seek Him with all of your heart and soul.

The Demagogic Hack

I was praying last week and the word “demagogue” came to mind so suddenly and pointedly, I knew the Lord was speaking to me and I knew who He was speaking to me about. I immediately got up off my knees to go check on the meaning of the word, because I wanted to make certain it meant what I thought it meant and confirm what the Lord was telling me. The word means, “a leader’s deception through cunning.” The Lord was speaking to me about Barack Obama. Keep this thought in mind, as I share some other important information. I have had consistent internet connectivity problems since creating the Prophetic Newsletter website, and the problems have increased drastically since 2010. I finally decided to purchase satellite internet for God’s work, hoping it would provide better service and I could work without facing a constant battle daily to stay on the internet long enough to upload articles. It reached a point where I was working offline to create articles, instead of creating them directly on the website, then going online to quickly insert the completed work into the website before the internet shut down. During the last year, I have also experienced remote takeovers, such as browser windows closing, causing loss of data, and a foreign cursor taking control of my screen. I have experienced so many other strange events, such as email hacking, US mail delays, loss and damage to packages, computer crashes and such, that I am aware of the fact that I have been targeted, but I haven’t been sure who was responsible. I suspected Muslims, because Arabs created a website with my name on it a couple of years ago and out of curiosity, I opened the site to look at it. As soon as I did, I read a Yahoo page with Arabic transliteration writing on it, with exclamation points after each sentence, so I knew right away I had been set up. I immediately shut off my computer, but it was too late. I had to purchase a new motherboard that time. I have experienced two other crashes and a few viruses besides, so I am learning what I can’t do on the internet and what can potentially be harmful. Now, I believe it is not only the Arabs who have targeted me. Last year, the FBI announced through major news media outlets that “international hackers sent viruses through advertisements on the internet and hundreds of thousands of people across the US will experience loss of their internet service.” They advised that you could access certain websites set up by the government to “scan your computer and remove the viruses.” I knew immediately it was a setup initiated by the FBI to scan the computers of US citizens. My internet service wasn’t interrupted by “international hackers,” because I have experienced internet interruptions long before this announcement. I perceived by the Spirit that this was just another method of government spying and hacking. More recently, we have all heard about Mr. Snowden’s whistle-blowing and his accusations about the National Security Agency’s spying on American citizens. Andrew Breitbart, a renowned investigative journalist, threatened to release a video of Barack Obama on March 1, 2012, which would “change the course of the election,” but he was murdered during the very early morning hours of, yes, March 1, 2012, at the age of 43. The same thing happened within three months of Mark Pittman’s lawsuit against the Federal Reserve Bank, the first lawsuit ever filed against the FRB. Under the Freedom of Information Act, he demanded information regarding the $9 trillion dollars in bailout monies which “disappeared” from the FRB’s hands. Mark Pittman was dead within three months of filing his lawsuit of “natural causes,” but he was only 52. Obama’s administration consisted largely of FRB members during his first term. His appointees are made up of FRB members, members of the Trilateral and Federal Trade Commissions and the Bilderberg Group (globalists). If you aren’t familiar with who the Bilderbergers are, I don’t have space to cover them in this letter, but they are among the richest people in the world and they effectively run the world by their wealth. The Word of God already tells us that a world dictator, the antichrist, will come into power in the last days: “He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads, that no man might buy or sell, save he who has the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of his name” Revelation 13:16-17. We are rapidly heading in that direction, friends, but there will be little to no warning for most of the world’s population; it will creep up suddenly. Are you ready to face God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth? If not, won’t you receive Jesus as your Savior today?

“The Lord has a mighty strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to earth with the hand” Isaiah 28:2

This young Sri Lankan woman was beheaded with a sword in a small, dusty town in Saudi Arabia, alone, thousands of miles away from family and friends.  She was displaced to Saudi Arabia in 2005, to work as a housemaid after the tsunami devasted her home.  She worked and sent money home to care for her family.    She was sentenced to death at the age of 17, after she was accused of strangling her employer’s four month old son.  She claimed the baby choked on milk.  She was not given an attorney and she claimed she was assaulted and forced to sign a confession.  Guilty or not, she was a minor, alone and died by beheading, as you can see from the photo above only moments before she was killed.  This is a typical Sharia capital case.  Britain demonstrated their “political correctness” (very much like Americans) years ago, as they bowed under pressure to allow Muslims to have their own Sharia court.  Today, there are at least 85 Sharia courts in Britain (as of 2009).  On January 10, 2012, a panel of federal judges in the United States ruled that states cannot protect their courts from jurists who base their decisions on international or Koranic law.  The 10^th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a federal district court order blocking an amendment to the Oklahoma Constitution that sought to ban judges from using international or Muslim law as a basis for deciding cases.  Plaintiff Muneer Awad, executive director of the Oklahoma branch of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) argued that the amendment infringed on his First Amendment Rights; the appeals court agreed.  It has been said by Muslim leaders that they will not have to subdue America by conquest, they will do it by her own legal system.  Why do you suppose that Muslim foot baths are being installed in American schools, while many restrictions in public schools are applied against Christians?  Is this fairness and in line with the constitutional rights of Christians?  Absolutely not, but we only need to refer to the Word of God to answer this question.  The Word of God tells us that a world leader will come to power, persecute the saints and behead those who do not receive his mark, name or the number of his name (Revelation 13:16-18, Revelation 20:4).  Does beheading sound familiar?  Heads go flying all over Muslim nations throughout public squares, generally on Fridays, in the Middle East.  The popular method of capital punishment under Sharia is beheading.  Women are beheaded all the time for refusing to marry a husband selected for her, for comitting adultery or for any number of crimes that would be considered dishonorable acts.  Men and women can be beheaded for converting to Christianity, or trying to convert someone else to Christianity.  That sounds very “antichrist,” doesn’t it?  In his book, God’s War on Terror, Walid Shoebat brought out the fact that the description of the Mahdi (Muslim messiah) in the Qu’ran is the identical description of the Antichrist revealed in the book of Revelation.  The Qu’ran says their Mahdi will arrive (literally) on a white horse and he will conquer all other nations which do not conform to Islam.  This matches with the description of the rider on the white horse, carrying a bow, in Revelation 6:2.  The United Nations was formed with the objective to create a one world government, which members nations lean heavily toward Islam, or are Islamic nations already.  We now have great nations like Britain and America conceding to Sharia law, as well as many other countries.  George W. Bush signed the North American Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) with Mexico and Canada, without the approval of Congress or the citizens of this nation, to initiate the mergence of the borderless North American Union, one of the UN’s seven partitions of the globe.  The Word of God tells us, “I considered the horns (leaders) and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth speaking great things…And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other (little horn) which came up, and before whom three fell (leaving seven), even of that horn that had eyes and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows.  I beheld and the same horn made war with the saints and prevailed against them” Daniel 7:8,20.  During the Antichrist’s reign, we see from the scriptures that there will be seven leaders, who will give their power to the Antichrist (Revelation 17:12).  We are not only living in perilous times, which the Word of God tells us will come in the last days (2 Timothy 3), but we can even see the formulation of the Antichrist’s temporary kingdom coming together right before our eyes.  Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and the remainder will come to pass precisely.  Are you prepared to face God and enter into eternity?  If not, there is no time to waste; salvation is only a prayer away.  Won’t you receive Jesus as your Savior today?

Jesus’s disciples asked Him, “…What will be the sign of Your coming and the end of the age?” Matthew 24:3.  This month’s newsletter is the tenth (final one) in a series of ten newsletters that have expounded on each of the ten signs Jesus said would signal His return.  Jesus said, “Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows.  Then they will deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you and you shall be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.  Many shall be offended and betray one another and hate one another, and many false prophets shall rise and deceive many, and because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold; but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.  And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come” Matthew 24:7-14.  This month’s edition of the Prophetic Newsletter will focus on verse 14 of Matthew 24, “This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come.”

 I researched every country’s religions on the internet and there are Christian churches in every nation, some are house churches and some are “underground,” but Christians are in every nation of the world witnessing and preaching the gospel.  In addition to that, the gospel is being broadcast by a number of Christian television networks throughout the world.  By way of television, internet, radio, iphones, other media sources, churches/house churches, street ministries, mailers and various other creative methods for sending the gospel (even by air balloons into North Korea, for example), the gospel is being preached in every nation, which is exactly what Jesus said would signal His return (Matthew 24:14).  Christianity is even the primary religion of the least populated country in the world, the Pitcairn Island (population 60)!  They have a Christian church on Pitcairn Island with eight members in regular attendance! (Sources: nationmaster.com, en.wikipedia.org, and national government websites).

 Some internet discussions are going on about “how many people have still not heard the gospel in the world today,” which is an important issue.  As Christians, we need to evangelize the world until the Lord returns.  Nevertheless, Jesus did not say that when every person hears the gospel, He will return.  He said, “This gospel will be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, then shall the end come.”  Jesus referred to getting the gospel to every nation, not individuals in particular.  The Bible says, “The grace of God which brings salvation has appeared to all men” Titus 2:11.  It is impossible to know if every living soul, reaching the age of accountability, has actually heard the gospel from another human being.  However, we cannot underestimate God’s ability to deal directly with individuals who have not heard the gospel from another person.  In fact, it is quite possible that there are indigenous people in remote parts of the world who have lived and died, who never heard the gospel from another person.  Yet, since the Bible says, “The grace of God which brings salvation has appeared to all men,” we need to take that literally.  The Word of God is true.  I believe Jesus Himself appears to such people, even as they are leaving this world, allowing them to make the same choice we have all been given, in much the same way God appeared and spoke to Abraham, or in the manner Jesus appeared to Saul (Paul) of Tarsus (Acts 9).  We do what we can; God takes care of the rest.  The critical thing for us to understand is that all prophecy has been fulfilled which must be fulfilled before the Lord returns.  Jesus could return at any time – any moment.  Are you prepared to stand before Him and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth?  If not, please accept the Lord Jesus as your Savior today, so you will be ready to enter eternity.  There is a wonderful eternal city awaiting God’s people after this life, please don’t miss it!
