The Great 7 Year Tribulations

The Rapture of the Christians and the Crowns and Rewards:


1 Corinthians 15

51Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory."[g]
55"Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?"[h] 56The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.


1 Thessalonians 4

13Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18Therefore encourage each other with these words.


First the Rapture shall occur which means that the true followers of Jesus shall meet in heaven too receive their crowns for their Christian services. These Crowns are not what saves someone but after a Christian is saved by believing in Jesus as said in Romans 10:9 they are giving treasures and rewards for their selfless deeds they did on earth (please note and I shall stress, these works rewards that is are not what saves a person but are “icing-on-the-cake” rewards and incentives after being saved via Jesus). Accepting Jesus as your Lord and savior is an unconditional covenant forge by God and his sovereign son Jesus and cannot be lost. However your works, treasures, and rewards that you do can either proliferate or be sabotaged and compromised by a lazy Christian who fells him or herself to sins of the flesh. These are following things that can pass through the fire because of a Christian’s GENUINE selfless deeds:


• The base foundation is Jesus the Christ is imperative
• Gold on top of the Foundation (Jesus the Christ)
• Silver on top of the Foundation (Jesus the Christ)
• Costly precious stones on top of the Foundation (Jesus the Christ)


These are the are the following things that shall be incinerated by the fire by a Christian’s lazy selfish deeds, of the flesh and doing good deeds based on arrogance and trying to look good to his fellow man and NOT God:


• Wood
• Hay
• Straw


When these elements are passed through the fire whatever is left the saved person gets that reward. Rewards can be numerous or very few depending on how the saved Christian served God and his brethren selflessly. However even with the loss of rewards he or she is still saved as it is written:
1 Corinthians 3

15If it is burned up, he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.

What that verse above means is similar to the contemporary Cliché:

“He made it by the skin of his teeth!”

Even though a Christian may lose some of his rewards and treasures he or she is still saved!!




Now let us identify the crowns, which are the following:


• Crown of life- AKA the martyrs crown those who died for bearing testimony of Jesus receive this crown
• Incorruptible crown-This is rewarded to Christians that kept their bodies pure and rejected the insatiable appetites of the flesh (i.e. immoral sex, drinking, drugs (sorcery), etc.)
• Crown of righteousness-this is giving to those who keep the faith and anxiously await Jesus return
• Crown of rejoicing*-Those who win peoples souls to Jesus. Not by Guilt, or you-will-go-to-hell but by love and obedience and by living by example not lip service hypocrisy
• Crown of joy*-AKA the Shepherds crown, those who are at full maturity. Those are great teachers like a pastor who uses his spiritual gifts to help to save the unsaved and lost.


*-These are the highest ranking of all the crowns.


The Antichrist:

Then Antichrist shall make his debut. The other names of the Antichrist are the following:

• Beast of the sea
• The abomination that makes desolate
• The king that will do as he pleases
• Tiny horn with eyes of a man that boasts to the God
• The man of lawlessness
• Son of perdition



A forewarning: ANY GUESSESS ON WHO THE ANTICHRIST IS; IS ONLY A FOOLS GAME!!! After the rapture the antichrist shall reveal himself and only the newly converts of Jesus after the rapture that is, shall decipher the name of the beast which is 666. SO IN ESSENCE ANY 666 GUESSING GAMES RIGHT NOW BEFORE THE RAPTURE IS ALSO A FOOLS GAME!!! The Antichrist will be a powerful world leader well versed in all arts. The antichrist myriads of talents to name a few are the following:
• Oratorical genius (Great speaking ability that entrances the human ears i.e. Hitler)
• Intellectual Genius
• Commercial Genius
• Military Genius
• Administrative genius
• Religious genius
• Powers of Satan




Israel’s Folly:
The Great 7 year tribulation does not happen when the rapture happens as most are commonly mistaken but only when the Antichrist forges a 7 year peace treaty so that all nations even the Arabs would recognize them as a sovereign state. As such Israel shall pay dearly for seeking security with the grave Isaiah 28:14-15.


Israel’s Terms under the Antichrist’s Covenant:

Once Israel makes this foolish covenant with the antichrist the terms of the deal are the following:


• Israel is given peace (False peace)
• The Jerusalem Temple is now under Israeli sovereignty on the Dome on the rock
• They are allowed to rebuild Solomon’s Temple long at last
• Israel must tear down their walls that borders their country


The Seven Seals of the Scroll:


Once Israel puts their trust into the Antichrist and not GOD the GREAT TRIBULATIONS NOW COMMENCE. The seven seal of the scroll could not be opened by anyone except Jesus:

• 1st Seal-The antichrist; notice his bow but not an arrow; he will win the world power through peace and diplomacy.
• 2nd Seal-A great war shall break out. Some speculate this is a symbol of the Antichrist’s other true persona of pure evil and a man who has a penchant for a bloodbath.
• 3rd Seal-Famine as a result of war; a family will barely have the money to feed themselves so they must resort in buying cheap innutritious food to feed everyone thus the mention of barley. Wheat in those days is but a luxury few can afford. The oil and wine are not touch because they are the rich and the wealthy and of course they are barely affected.
• 4th Seal-Death is a result of all of this and it shall kill over ¼ of the populous!!
• 5th Seal-Martyrs cry to the Sovereign Lord for Justice; they beg God to avenge their unjust deaths because they bear true to the testimonies of Jesus. For that they were beheaded. God says for them to be patient and they were all given a white robe for there shall be more Christians than they themselves that shall be slaughtered. God shall avenge the martyrs so saith Hebrews 10:30.
• 6th Seal-Great Earthquake ensues; celestial upheaval. See Joel 2: 28-32
And all of the inhabitants of the earth shall say:
Revelation 6
15Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. 16They called to the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! 17For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?"
• 7th Seal-Silence for a half an hour then an angel takes a golden censer filled with incense and hurls it to earth and thunder, lightening, and an earthquake ensue.
The Dispatching of the 144,000 Jewish Evangelicals:

God in his infinite mercy and grace (even in a time of his wrath) shall dispatch the following:

• Judah 12,000
• Reuben 12,000
• Gad 12,000
• Asher 12,000
• Naphtali 12,000
• Manasseh 12,000
• Simeon 12,000
• Levi 12,000,
• Issachar 12,000
• Zebulun 12,000
• Joseph 12,000
• Benjamin 12,000

144,000 for the 12 tribes of Israel shall be given the SEAL OF THE LIVING GOD which insured the servants of God protection for the plagues. The Seal is branded on their foreheads by an angel.

The Dispatching of the Two Witnesses:

These will be invulnerable men who will wear sackcloth and prophecy for 1,260 day (3 ½ years). Some believe it will be Moses and Elijah since both of their powers are very similar to the powers of the two witnesses. We know one of the witnesses shall be Elijah as written in Malachi 4:5.Their powers are the following:
• Power to shut the sky, thus inhibit rain from coming
• Power to turn waters into blood
• Can execute as many plagues and torment as often as they wish
• Breathe fire from their mouths to anyone who want to harm them; that is the way they must die



Many people will be saved during the GREAT TRIBULATIONS by the combined testimonies and effort of both the two witnesses and the 144,000 Jewish Evangelicals:


Revelation 7


9After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10And they cried out in a loud voice:
"Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb." 11All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12saying:
"Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!"

13Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes—who are they, and where did they come from?"

14I answered, "Sir, you know."

And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15Therefore,
"they are before the throne of God
and serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.
16Never again will they hunger;
never again will they thirst.
The sun will not beat upon them,
nor any scorching heat.
17For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd;
he will lead them to springs of living water.
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."



The Seven Trumpets of Judgment:
• 1st Trumpet-Hail and fire mixed with blood is hurled to earth. 1/3 of the earth and trees were burned up but all of the green grass was burned up
• 2nd Trumpet-A huge mountain all ablaze (a meteor perhaps) was thrown into the sea as a result 1/3 of the sea was turned into blood, 1/3 creatures of the sea perished, and 1/3 of the ships were destroyed
• 3rd Trumpet –Great torching star WORMWOOD (comet perhaps); shall fall into 1/3 of the rivers and spring and as a result people shall die via the bitter tasting water from WORMWOOD (perhaps poisonous alkaloid from the star)
• 4th Trumpet-Celestial upheaval; 1/3 of the sun, moon, and stars were darkened; 1/3 of the day was without light and also 1/3 of the night

13As I watched, I heard an eagle that was flying in midair call out in a loud voice: "Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the other three angels!"

• 5th Trumpet –A star (Satan or demon) falls from the sky as a key to the shaft of the abyss. Out comes demonic locust that are commanded not to harm the tree or vegetation but those without the SEAL OF GOD to sting them and torment them (not kill them) for 5 months. Many will try to commit suicide but fail in their attempts for death eludes them. The demonic locusts have a leader call Abbadon in Hebrew or Apollyon in Greek which means: Destroyer

12The first woe is past; two other woes are yet to come.

• 6th Trumpet -4 angels released from the Euphrates River to kill 1/3 of mankind. They shall have two hundred million troops to do the slaughtering of the 1/3 of mankind. But do people repent and come to Jesus after all these horrors? No, they are so stubborn they rather curse God and suffer in agony than to humble themselves before the Sovereign Lord!

20The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood—idols that cannot see or hear or walk. 21Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.

• 7th Trumpet – 15The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said:
"The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ,
and he will reign for ever and ever." 16And the twenty-four elders, who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17saying:
"We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
the One who is and who was,
because you have taken your great power
and have begun to reign.
18The nations were angry; and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,
and for rewarding your servants the prophets
and your saints and those who reverence your name,
both small and great—
and for destroying those who destroy the earth." 19Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant. And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake and a great hailstorm.

The Prophecy against Gog:

Rogue nations that harbor malice and black hearted hatred towards Israel’s right to exist shall try once and for all to obliterate Israel as is written:

Psalm 83

4 "Come," they say, "let us destroy them as a nation,
that the name of Israel be remembered no more."

They will attack Israel for numerous reasons besides their hatred towards them:

• They want to rebel against the sovereignty of world leader the Antichrist
• They want to strike wealth and riches
• Control over the oil and Israel is a great strategic area of control
• Rebellion against God

What are the nations that will do such a cowardly sneak attack on Israel when Israel’s defenses are nonexistent (Do notice SYRIA is not the nations that will join because they were probably destroyed by a battle between Israel and was destroyed even though Israel was hurt in the process before the rapture in accordance to the PROPHECY AGAINST DOMASCUS which can be found in Isaiah 17:1 & Amos 1:3-5)? These are the following nations that will try their vain attempt to “wipe Israel of the map”:

• Rosh-Russia people north of the Black Sea adjacent to the Caspian Sea (God will actually drag and force Russia to attack Israel with a hook in his jaw and drag him down like a jackass to the mountains of Israel)
• Magog-Areas of Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and possibly Afghanistan
• Meshech-Portions of Turkey
• Tubal- Portions of Turkey
• Cush-Ethiopia, Sudan, South of the Nile River
• Put-West of Egypt northern Africa Libya
• Gomer- Portions of Turkey
• Beth-togarmah- Portions of Turkey


(Notice almost all the Attackers of Israel is mostly Muslim Islamic) It would be Saudi Arabia, Great Britain, and the United states who will who will make a lame protest in wanting to know their intentions and motives in this attack:


13 Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish and all her strong lions will say to you, "Have you come to plunder? Have you gathered your hordes to loot, to carry off silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods and to seize much plunder?" '


It will be God who will save his people Israel and he will be furious and his hot anger and wrath will be aroused. He will use Russia and her Islamic allies to attack Israel to demonstrate his power and might and to make himself known throughout the nations through Russia and her Islamic allies’ destruction by executing devastating natural catastrophe that even the creatures of the earth, sea and air will know it is God behind these disasters. God shall do the following to Russia and her Islamic allies:


• Great earthquake in the land of Israel
• Mountains, cliffs and every wall overturned
• Largest most humiliating friendly fire ever seen done to Russia and her Islamic allies
• Plagues and bloodshed
• Torrent rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on Russia and her Islamic allies
• God will strike the weapons out of the hands of Russia and her Islamic allies and sabotage their battle




After that the creature of the air and land will devour the flesh of Russia and her Islamic allies and for seven months the house of Israel shall bury the carcasses of Russia and her Islamic allies and the gravesite shall be called Valley of Hamon Gog which means Hordes of Gog. Israel will then use and burn as fuel the weapons of Russia and her Islamic allies for 7 years. Now burning weapons is possible since Russia is manufacturing a substance called LIGNOSTONE which is compressed laminated wood.



Satan Expelled from Heaven:


During all this time in heaven and towards the end of the first half of the 7 year tribulation (1,260 days) Satan has been making vain attempts to invalidate the saved raptured Christians in heaven (like hearing annoying comments from the peanut gallery). God having enough of hearing Satan’s unceasing dribble expels and hurls Satan back to Earth never to enter heaven again as if you read the book of Job. Satan infuriated goes and commences a holocaust on mammoth proportions on the Jews and Christians and persecutes those who obey God’s sovereign commandments. Now on Earth Good shall be evil and evil shall be good.

The Two Witnesses Assassinated and Resurrected:

The end of the 3 ½ years midpoint of the 7 year tribulations the invulnerability of the two witnesses shall be lifted and the Antichrist shall slay them both. For 3 ½ days their bodies lay. The inhabitants of the Earth see the death of the two witnesses and are so evil they refuse to bury their bodies and gloat over their death and even give gifts to each other!! At the end of the 3 ½ days a voice from heavens says, “Come”, and the two witnesses come to life, the inhabitants of the Earth are amazed and horrified by this and the two witnesses ascend into heaven via a cloud while their enemies looked on below. A great earthquake at that same hour shall ensue and 1/10 of the city is destroyed and 7,000 people are killed, those who survived terrified and gave glory to God in heaven, probably thanking God for sparing their lives.

The Antichrist Show his True Form:

In the midpoint of the Great Tribulation the Antichrist is no longer “Mr. nice guy” anymore and bare out his fangs as totalitarian brutal despot the world has never seen. All the combined despot and brutal dictators of the past such as Hitler or Joseph Stalin are puny mustard seeds compared to the Antichrist.

The Antichrist breaks the treaty with Israel and Defiles the Temple:

The Antichrist shall break his treaty with Israel and put a stop to all sacrifices and offering and has the audacious hubris to even enter the HOLIES OF HOLIES and sit on the throne of the Temple and declare himself “god” and demand worship!!


Some of the Jews Flee to Petra/Bozrah from the Antichrist’s Genocidal Persecution:

Now for those who do not understand the imagery the woman is Israel NOT Mary!! The moon and sun the woman (Israel) is clothed with and 12 stars over her head is an allusion to Joseph’s dream in Genesis 37:9. The moon and sun are Jacob and Rachel the forbearers of Israel and the 12 stars are the 12 Tribes of Israel. The Israelites heeding the warning of the 144,000 Jewish evangelicals and the two witnesses will flee to the desert of Petra/Bozrah that is located in southern Jordan. There Israel shall be supernaturally nourished and protected by God.



Enter the False Prophet:

The Antichrist shall have a close ally and confidant called the False Prophet (Beast of the Earth). He will enforce the worshiping of the Antichrist (Beast of the Sea) by forcing everyone to accept the MARK OF THE BEAST which is 666. Those who do not have the MARK OF THE BEAST cannot buy nor sell pretty much putting people in hostage to have to worship him otherwise you die of starvation. Those who blatantly refuse the MARK OF THE BEAST are brutally beheaded!! So in essence this will divided the pseudo-Christians from the real Christians, whether they are cowards to accept the MARK OF THE BEAST to save their skin or are loyal and obedient to God and refuse the MARK OF THE BEAST and thusly are beheaded thus earning themselves the Crown of life. Know this: anyone who receives the MARK OF THE BEAST is the UNFORGIVABLE SIN so do not accept it!!!

The Transfer of all Commerce to Babylon:

The Antichrist will transfer all commerce and the economy to the newly rebuilt Babylon which is south of modern day Bagdad, Iraq as a hubristic blatant rebellion against God and to segregate themselves from God.

The Dispatching of the 3 Angels to Proclaim the Everlasting Gospel:

God in his infinite mercy and grace (praise him the Sovereign Lord 7 folds!) shall do something he has never done in Biblical history: he will dispatch 3 powerful angels in the guise of humans to preach the everlasting gospel to every nation, tribe, language and people:

• 1st Angel- "Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water."
• 2nd Angel-"Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great, which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries."
• 3rd Angel- "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, 10he, too, will drink of the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11And the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name."

13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on."
"Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."

The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath:
When the Antichrist sit on the throne and has the audacious hubris to even enter the HOLIES OF HOLIES and sit on the throne of the Temple and declare himself “god” and demand worship, the wrath and hot anger of God shall reach his pinnacle and he will execute judgments on the Earth and Babylon the Great for their grievous transgression. The Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath will ONLY affect those people who received the MARK OF THE BEAST and are the following:
• 1st Bowl-Ugly sores and festering boils
• 2nd Bowl-The Sea is turned into blood and the creatures of the sea die as a result.
• 3rd Bowl-Rivers and springs are turned into blood.

5Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:
"You are just in these judgments,
you who are and who were, the Holy One,
because you have so judged;
6for they have shed the blood of your saints and prophets,
and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve."

7And I heard the altar respond:
"Yes, Lord God Almighty,
true and just are your judgments."

This means that the martyrs (The fifth Seal of the Scroll) plea to God for vengeance for their deaths has been avenged! The wicked inhabitants got what was just and deserved for their shedding the blood of the innocent Christians who bore the testimony of Jesus. God in a way says you like blood, shedding blood of the innocent? Good! Now drink it you savage murderers!!

• 4th Bowl-Scorching sun, not only the wicked inhabitants of the Earth grievously dehydrated but are felled with heat stroke. But do they repent, NO!
9They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify him.
• 5th Bowl-The Antichrist throne, Kingdom of Babylon is plunged into darkness. The wicked inhabitants of the Earth gnaw their tongues in agony. But do they repent, NO!

11and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent of what they had done.

• 6th Bowl-The Euphrates River is dried up preparing the way of the king of the East (China perhaps)

*16Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.*
• 7th Bowl-The destruction of BABYLON never to rise again!! But do they repent, NO!

17The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and out of the temple came a loud voice from the throne, saying, "It is done!" 18Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake. No earthquake like it has ever occurred since man has been on earth, so tremendous was the quake. 19The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. God remembered Babylon the Great and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath. 20Every island fled away and the mountains could not be found. 21From the sky huge hailstones of about a hundred pounds each fell upon men. And they cursed God on account of the plague of hail, because the plague was so terrible.

The land of Israel and Jerusalem under Siege:

As written in the book of Zachariah:
2 I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it; the city will be captured, the houses ransacked, and the women raped. Half of the city will go into exile, but the rest of the people will not be taken from the city.
The Antichrist will convince everyone that all these trouble are caused by the “Jewish problem”. And the only way to end the “Jewish problem” is to destroy and killed them all.

The Regeneration of the Jews:

The Jews in Petra/ Bozrah heeding the testimony of the two witnesses and the 144,000 Jewish Evangelicals finally understand that all these woes are happening because they transgressed upon the Sovereign Lord and his son Jesus. The Jewish leaders will command everyone to pray for Jesus to come and help them. Thus fulfilling this prophecy:

Ezekiel 11
19 I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. 20 Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
You see all this is happening because God wants to use to horror of GREAT TRIBULATIONS to SOFTEN the HARDEN HEARTS of the Jews. So in essence there shall be a small remnant of Jews saved because they have finally acknowledged their nation sin: THE REJECTION OF JESUS THE CHRIST!!!!

The Second Coming of Jesus and the Destruction of the Antichrist and his Forces:

Hearing the prayers of the Jews God dispatches his son Jesus to rescue his people O’ Israel. He lands his feet on Mount of Olives:

Zachariah14
3
Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights in the day of battle. 4 On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. 5 You will flee by my mountain valley, for it will extend to Azel. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake [a] in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD my God will come, and all the holy ones with him.

Jesus comes in hot anger and wrath to slay the wicked with the word, the breath of God:

Isaiah 11
4 but with righteousness he will judge the needy,
with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth.
He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth;
with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked.
Isaiah 63
1 Who is this coming from Edom,
from Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson?
Who is this, robed in splendor,
striding forward in the greatness of his strength?
"It is I, speaking in righteousness,
mighty to save."
2 Why are your garments red,
like those of one treading the winepress?
3 "I have trodden the winepress alone;
from the nations no one was with me.
I trampled them in my anger
and trod them down in my wrath;
their blood spattered my garments,
and I stained all my clothing.
4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
and the year of my redemption has come.
5 I looked, but there was no one to help,
I was appalled that no one gave support;
so my own arm worked salvation for me,
and my own wrath sustained me.
6 I trampled the nations in my anger;
in my wrath I made them drunk
and poured their blood on the ground."

Revelation 19

11I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. 12His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. 13He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. 14The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. 15Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter."[a] He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
17And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, "Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and mighty men, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, small and great."
19Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and his army. 20But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. 21The rest of them were killed with the sword that came out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.

Jesus will destroy all Nations that Attack Israel and Jerusalem:

Zechariah 12

1 This is the word of the LORD concerning Israel. The LORD, who stretches out the heavens, who lays the foundation of the earth, and who forms the spirit of man within him, declares: 2 "I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that sends all the surrounding peoples reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem. 3 On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves. 4 On that day I will strike every horse with panic and its rider with madness," declares the LORD. "I will keep a watchful eye over the house of Judah, but I will blind all the horses of the nations. 5 Then the leaders of Judah will say in their hearts, 'The people of Jerusalem are strong, because the LORD Almighty is their God.'
6 "On that day I will make the leaders of Judah like a firepot in a woodpile, like a flaming torch among sheaves. They will consume right and left all the surrounding peoples, but Jerusalem will remain intact in her place.
7 "The LORD will save the dwellings of Judah first, so that the honor of the house of David and of Jerusalem's inhabitants may not be greater than that of Judah. 8 On that day the LORD will shield those who live in Jerusalem, so that the feeblest among them will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the Angel of the LORD going before them. 9 On that day I will set out to destroy all the nations that attack Jerusalem.
Zechariah 14
12 This is the plague with which the LORD will strike all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths. 13 On that day men will be stricken by the LORD with great panic. Each man will seize the hand of another, and they will attack each other. 14 Judah too will fight at Jerusalem. The wealth of all the surrounding nations will be collected—great quantities of gold and silver and clothing. 15 A similar plague will strike the horses and mules, the camels and donkeys, and all the animals in those camps.

Jesus will Forgive Israel for their rejection of him:

The small remnant will weep because they were solely responsible for his death and rejection:
Zechariah 12
10 "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit [a] of grace and supplication. They will look on [b] me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. 11 On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be great, like the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. 12 The land will mourn, each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives, 13 the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives, 14 and all the rest of the clans and their wives.

Jesus of course forgives them:

Romans 11
26And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
"The deliverer will come from Zion;
he will turn godlessness away from Jacob.
27And this is[f] my covenant with them
when I take away their sins."[g]

The Antichrist and the False Prophet are captured and thrown in the lake of fire tormented day and night forever and ever.

The Millennium Years under Jesus’ Godly Government:

An angel comes down and imprisons Satan in the bottomless pit. Only the ones who are saved via faith in Jesus can enter the 1,000 years whether it would be Jew or Gentile (non-Jew) or raptured Gentile. The following are the benefits in living in the 1,000:

• 1,000 years of peace
• Healthy young strong bodies that are immune to diseases (the Adamic curse is partially lifted)
• All animals are tamed and no predatory animals or ones with venom, thus all are vegetarian
Isaiah 11
6 The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling [a] together;
and a little child will lead them.
7 The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
8 The infant will play near the hole of the cobra,
and the young child put his hand into the viper's nest.
9 They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
as the waters cover the sea.

• Must celebrate the FEAST OF THE TABERNACLES OTHERWISE THAT COUNTRY WILL NOT GET RAIN!!!
• Nature is transformed into its glory like it was before Adam and Eve screwed it up!!


Sad to say even under these utopia conditions people will still rebel since they have 100 years to accept Jesus otherwise they are accursed. It would be during the generation born into the 1,000 years that will rebel. At the end of the 1,000 years Satan is release from his prison and tempts the nation those mostly of the younger generation born into the 1,000 years to try to band together to destroy Jerusalem. But in vain for God unleashes fire from the heaven to consume them all!!














The Great White Throne:


Jesus will be the judge in this and anyone who stand before the GREAT WHITE THRONE is NOT SAVED!!! They are not written in the book of life and the only way a person can be written in the book of life is to freely accept Jesus. Those who are not saved are judged according to their works. A person who has rejected Jesus as their savior must be judged by the Mosaic Law and other various laws and that shall be the following:


• Rejecting the scriptures-There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day. John 12:48
• Perverted and wicked secret thoughts-For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14
• Idle words (i.e. dirty jokes) - But I tell you that men will have to give account on the Day of Judgment for every careless word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned." Matthew 12:36-37
• Slandering the Lord with hard speeches-Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men: "See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him." Jude 1:14-15
• Everyone will confess Jesus is Lord (even Satan)-You got it, even the ones who scoffer at God’s commandment and hated Jesus will genuflect with reverence and proclaim Jesus is Lord!! Everyone even Satan and his demon hordes:
Romans 14
For we will all stand before God's judgment seat. 11It is written:
" 'As surely as I live,' says the Lord,
'every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will confess to God.

Philippians 2

9Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

• The Mosaic Law (10 Commandments)

Now when an unsaved are there before Christ it is useless to even utter the following:

• You did not give me enough proof of your existence…..God-since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Romans1:19-20
• The Christians were a bunch of hypocrites so thus it tarnished the creditability of Christianity-not going to fly by God. It is like they say Christians are not perfect-far from it-just forgiven!
• Can you give me a second chance?-No you had your chance will you were alive!
• I knew about you God I read the scriptures-Knowing God is does not save you in fact Satan and his demon hordes know of Jesus and God, for it is written:

In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an evil spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, "Ha! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!" "Be quiet!" Jesus said sternly. "Come out of him!" Then the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without injuring him. Luke 4:33-35

Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, "You are the Son of God!" But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew he was the Christ. Luke 4:41

Having faith in God and obeying his commandments and accepting God’s free gift of salvation that is how you get saved not by trying to be a Bible bookworm, you see the Pharisees were well versed in scriptures (Just like Satan) but they had too much pride, and were spiritually blind to see Jesus as the Messiah and did not exhibit love and faith.

But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

Those who are not saved will be thrown into the lake of fire tormented forever!!!

Revelation 20


11Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. 14Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.




The New Heaven and New earth:


The ones who are saved written in the book of life that is, are to partake the new heaven and new Earth:

Revelation 21

1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
5He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."
6He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
9One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." 10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. 11It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. 13There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. 14The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates and its walls. 16The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia[a]in length, and as wide and high as it is long. 17He measured its wall and it was 144 cubits[b] thick,[c] by man's measurement, which the angel was using. 18The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. 19The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, 20the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.[d] 21The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass.
22I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. 24The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. 25On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. 26The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. 27Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Revelation 22

1Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. 4They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever. 6The angel said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent his angel to show his servants the things that must soon take place."





Freewill to accept Jesus as your savior or not:

Revelation 22

11Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."

17The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.

The free gift of the water of Life is Jesus the Christ but one must come to him willingly and freely and voluntarily. God did not want robots but those who wish to love the Lord by coming to him. It is freewill to do good or ill….what is your choice?

What's with all this rapture rubbish?

THAT kind of thing is the reason that religion is DANGEROUS. If you are all counting on the imminent end of the world, why worry about oil depletion or global warming or deforestation or the hole in the ozone?

The fact that someone who believes that crap could realistically run for president (Mike Huckabee) is downright DEPRESSING.

Sheesh. How daft can people get?

When so many are gone at once - it won't be secret - well
maybe from a standpoint of knowing EXACTLY when it will occur
as Jesus Himself does not know - only the Father

and yes - before the 7 years of tribulation

and the way things are going now - won't be long!

have a great 2008
