Seek TRUTH - Choose LIFE
THE DAY OF THE LORD
GLOBAL POWER
"Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it." (Isaiah 46:9-11)
When it comes concerning the end time events there is quite a bit of perspectives that do not quite line up with the holy scriptures. Let us reason together and understand what the bible teaches us concerning the last days. Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, unless He reveals His secret unto His servants the prophets. (Amos 3:7) This verse alone dismisses the notion that God will come in secret or without some notice. There are many times in the old and new testament scriptures where God announces the signs of His coming and describing in very vivid detail the events that must come to pass before He establishes His eternal kingdom upon the earth.
Concerning prophetic revelations mentioned throughout the bible we must have discernment to recognize that the events described are not always in linear chronological order. These are a series of visions that portray the same events from different perspectives; some are direct descriptions and some are symbolic. Sometimes that which is being described is only an elaboration of the previously stated vision or description. Some make a mistake to make the work of God fit a generalized perspective of convenience and popularity. And although there is much calamity yet to come upon this world - those who turn and remain faithful to God will have peace amidst tribulations. Jesus said: "I do not ask that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from evil. (John 15:17) For a true christian, death is not something to fear; trust Jesus and His word will carry you through the worst storms of life.The following page is an attempt to place the end time events in the best chronological order as possible, to give assurance of the things to come according to the word of God. May God grant discernment in due time to all those who seek Him. Blessings.
PREFACE TO REVELATION
Prior to discussing the end-time events listed in the book of revelation - it is very important to note that this prophetic book is similar to ones before it. Specifically that it does not flow in direct chronological order of events listed by chapters and by verses. Without this perspective nothing in the prophetic books will add up or make any sense. The series of visions accompanied by silence and explanations give a variety of perspectives of the same events with clarification of their detail. This is an attempt to organize the events into a chronological order so the reader can understand the sequence. Yet again, a lot of visions have the same timeline as others so they all coincide at the same time while each describing a particular layer of the same image as events. For example: Seals one through 5 do NOT describe events but rather layers of the same timeline where each description is escalating in severity as we approach the end. Governments have always existed yet are getting more sophisticated as the end approaches; Wars always took place - as a means of the conquest for the first seal, and these wars escalate in severity as the end approaches. Famines and poverty always existed - this is the result of the wars and the conquests of the first two seals, again - these have increased throughout time even to this day. We can see that governments redistribute wealth leaving the rich richer and the poor poorer; hence inflation. As a result of these three seals - death follows to reap the lives of those lost in battles, calamities, poverty and hunger. The fifth seal - persecution of the men of God, this has happened through out history and will only continue to increase as we approach the day of the LORD's return.
THE 4 HORSEMEN
The Book of revelation of Jesus Christ was dictated to John the Apostle in a similar way as other prophetic books of the old testament. So the events described are not necessarily in order and may overlap quite a bit. These four horsemen described by the removal of the first four seals represent a common theme rather than individual events.
The first horseman is a rider of conquest. (Revelation 6:2) Kingdoms have risen and fallen from generation to generation since the beginning of creation and will continue until the day that God establishes His eternal kingdom.
Conquests have always brought war since every tribe and person has a sense of self preservation through self defense and due to our fallen nature into sin - we see the fruit of pride through wars. (Revelation 6:3-4) This is the second horseman that has run through the nations since the beginning of conquests until the last day that God established His kingdom against the will of those who defy Him.
The third rider brings starvation and loss of daily sustenance once the rider of war passes with the conquest. (Revelation 6:5-6)
Finally the fourth rider of death comes through to collect those who have fallen in conquest through war, environmental calamities, starvation and disease. (Revelation 6:7-8)
These are the first four seals that reveal the scroll prior to it being read. These seals are more compared to a preface of a book or a thesis statement to an article and in this case the events in the book of revelation.
NEW WORLD ORDER
But 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, without 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. And from such people turn away! (2-Timothy 3:1-5)
“What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,” (Psalm 8:4-6) We are made in God’s image – to govern His creation with Him, but because of our fallen nature –it is now sin that governs the world and interferes with God. The more governing authority or power a person attains the bigger impact that person is able to achieve.
1st Seal - Major Kingdoms
BABEL
1. And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. - (Revelation 6:1-2)
In year 900 B.C. there was a man of God in Babylonian captivity - his name was Daniel. God has shown a dream to - Nebuchadnezzar - the king of Babylon and God gave Daniel it's explanation to to deliver to the king. The dream described four major world kingdoms that would precede the kingdom of God that will stand forever.
4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and from, and knowledge shall be increased.
-Daniel 12
- Brought forth by: Renascence, industrial revolution, nuclear weapons, computers, cashless banking, travel, space race, internet, communication, genetics, virtual reality,
500 years later God tells John:
10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. –Revelation 22
One world economy & currency
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. -Revelation 13
One world leader
5And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. – Rev 13
One world government
2nd Seal - WARS
fascism, communism, socialism, utopia movement, new world order (Georgia guide stones).
“Countless people ... will hate the new world order ... and will die protesting against it.” – H.G. Wells
Overthrow of governments
French, American, Russian and other revolutions, world war I, II & Vietnam, terrorism, middle east wars, civil unrest, police state lockdown,
Worldwide chaos
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. 25Behold, I have told you before. - Matthew 24
S3-HUNGER AND POVERTY
When it comes concerning the end time events there is quite a bit of perspectives that do not quite line up with the holy scriptures. Let us reason together and understand what the bible teaches us concerning the last days. Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. - (Amos 3:7) This verse alone dismisses the notion that God will come in secret or without some notice. There are many times in the old and new testaments where God announces the signs of His coming and describing in very vivid detail the events that must come to pass before He established His kingdom upon the earth. Concerning prophetic revelations mentioned throughout the bible we must have discernment to recognize that the events described are not in linear chronological order.
S4-SLAVERY AND DEATH
These are a series of visions that portray the same events from different perspectives; some are direct descriptions and some are symbolic. Sometimes that which is being described is only a elaboration of the previously stated vision or description. Some make a mistake to make the work of God fit a generalized perspective of convenience and popularity. Some are stated this way out of fear of the future. And although there is much calamity yet to come upon this world - those who turn and remain faithful to God will have peace. Jesus said: I do not ask that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from evil. ( John 15:17) For a true christian death is not something to fear; trust Jesus and His word will carry you through the worst storms of life.
THE 4 KINGDOMS
The Book of revelation of Jesus Christ was dictated to John the Apostle in a similar way as other prophetic books of the old testament. So the events described are not necessarily in order and may overlap quite a bit. These four horsemen described by the removal of the first four seals represent a common theme rather than actual events. The first horseman is a rider of conquest. Kingdoms have rose and fallen from generation to generation since the beginning of creation and will continue until the day that God established His eternal kingdom. Conquests have always drought war since every tribe and person has a sense of self preservation through self defense. Those with more advanced weapons will lead. This is the second horseman that has run through the nations since the beginning of conquests until the last day that God established His kingdom against the will of those who defy Him. The third rider brings starvation and loss of daily sustenance once the rider of war passes with the conquest. Finally the fourth rider of death comes through to collect those who have fallen in conquest through war, environmental calamities, starvation and disease. These are the first four seals that reveal the scroll prior to it being read. These seals are more compared to a preface of the revelation.
BABYLON
The fifth seal describes the persecution of all those who walk before God and seek do His will. People worshiping the true God have always been persecuted and killed throughout history and will continue to be oppressed and destroyed until the day Jesus establishes His eternal kingdom. There are many verses in revelation that describe future persecution of Christians through socioeconomic means and eventually through death. This seal also implies the slain children of God are in His presence in some form until the day of resurrection when they will receive the promise of the new life.
Suddenly in the sixth seal we read that the day of God's wrath has come with irreversible global changes that would make life impossible to continue. Everyone from rich to slave acknowledges God and hide from fear of God, yet the later chapters do not describe people who were hiding from God. Life goes on as usual because the sixth seal pertains the last day not the great tribulation. This seal will be the last day of that tribulation and a beginning of God's condemnation of the world prior to establishing His kingdom. The seventh seal only describes silence; in the analogy to the the preface this is a blank page just before we read the content of the book.
