YOU CAN KNOW THE TIMING OF THE RAPTURE

A single Bible verse in Revelation reveals the entire Revelation TIMELINE including the timing of the Rapture. Watch this Nelson Walters video to see the most misunderstood and overlooked verse in Revelation that reveals it all. He does a good job of providing the scriptures that reveal the timing of the rapture and the wrath of God.

“for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?” Revelation 6:17

and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.” 1 Thessalonians 1:10

These two verses clearly reveals the wrath of God and the rapture come at the end of the sixth seal.

EVIDENCE FOR THE WORLDWIDE FLOOD OF NOAH’S DAY AND A YOUNG EARTH

Hugh Ross is trying to rewrite the biblical account of the flood. In this episode of Answers News, the hosts, Bryan Osborne, Avery Foley, and Dr. Terry Mortenson, share their perspectives on this topic as Bible-believing Christians.

Answers in Genesis is an apologetics (Christianity-defending) ministry dedicated to enabling Christians to defend their faith and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ effectively.

Progressive creationists’ like Dr Hugh Ross,2 who insist on interpreting Genesis in the light of man’s theories like the ‘big bang’, and the supposed ‘proof’ of an old earth (billions of years), insist that those who teach a young earth and literal Genesis 1–11 are the ones putting a stumbling block in the way of scientists and others accepting the Gospel message. However, time and time again, we have found that the opposite is true. Compromising Genesis with man’s ideas from outside of Scripture opens the door to this ‘slippery slide of unbelief’. It becomes a major stumbling block to people being receptive to God’s Word and the Gospel. Unbelievers are generally unimpressed when they see Christians clearly evading the obvious meaning of the beginning of God’s Word.

Your faith will be strengthened by listening to Dr Terry Mortenson defend a young earth by presenting the evidence for Noah’s worldwide flood and the billions of dead things buried all over the world including fossil fuels formed from all the vegetation that was buried.

It is important to remember that Jesus spoke of Noah’s flood when he was telling His disciples about His second coming to earth. He believed that Noah’s flood was worldwide killing all but the eight people on the Ark.

But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.Matthew 24:36-39

Moreover, many of the things Jesus said would occur at this time have played out already exactly as He said they would. After Jesus return to earth to rescue Israel at the battle of Armageddon, His Millennial Kingdom is next on God’s agenda for planet earth. Go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net to prepare to rule and reign with Jesus for the next 1,000 years.

SYRIA UNDER AHMAD ASHARA IS AN ENEMY OF ISRAEL

In the wake of the Assad regime’s fall, Syria’s new president, Ahmad Ashara, is being hailed by some as a statesman including President Trump. However, recent events paint a much darker picture. At a military parade in Damascus, chants of “Khaibar, khaibar, oh Jews, the Army of Muhammad will return” echoed through the streets—a direct call for genocide. This video delves into the disturbing realities of the new Syrian government, exposing the extremist ideology at its core and questioning the narrative of a peaceful transition. This in-depth analysis explores the dire situation facing Syria’s minority communities, including the Alawites, Kurds, and Druze, who are being systematically persecuted and threatened with slaughter. The video examines the geopolitical chess game being played by Turkey and the controversial praise from President Trump, who seems to prioritize a fragile and deceptive “stability” over justice. Is Syria truly on a path to peace, or is it a tinderbox on the verge of a catastrophic explosion? Watch to uncover the unsettling truth about the future of Syria and the Middle East.

What we see unfolding fits Biblical end times prophecies and whilst Syria is not directly mentioned as one of the nations that come up against Israel in end times prophecies, we know God judges Damascus from these Scriptures. Also we know from Scripture Turkey is one of the nations to come against Israel and Turkey is taking a lead role in rebuilding Syria with Ashara.

Behold, Damascus will cease to be a city and will become a heap of ruins… The fortress will disappear from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus; and the remnant of Syria will be like the glory of the children of Israel, declares the Lord of hosts. Isaiah 17:1-3

For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment, because they have threshed Gilead with threshing sledges of iron. So I will send a fire upon the house of Hazael, and it shall devour the strongholds of Ben-hadad. I will break the gate-bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitants from the Valley of Aven, and him who holds the scepter from Beth-eden; and the people of Syria shall go into exile to Kir,” says the Lord.Amos 1:3-5

The house of Hazael and the strongholds (or palaces) of Ben-Hadad referenced in this verse (Amos 1:4) were located in the ancient kingdom of Aram-Damascus, cantered on the city of Damascus, which is in modern-day Syria.

It is all leading up to Jesus return to set up His Millennial Kingdom. For more on what is next on God’s agenda for planet Earth go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net

CHARLIE KIRK’S MURDER FUELLED RELIGIOUS REVIVAL AMONG YOUNG AMERICANS

Kirk’s Assassination Sparks Spiritual Revival

According to a survey conducted by the Barna Group, nearly one fifth (18%) of American adults reported that they became more spiritually active following Kirk’s assassination, while 5% said that they became more politically active and 6% said that they became both more spiritually and more politically active.

“It is remarkable to see the impact of a widely known public figure, and the fact that tens of millions of Americans were inspired to take action as a result of his death,” said Barna Group CEO David Kinnaman in a statement. “There has also been some discussion about Charlie Kirk’s passing as directly responsible for a surge in church attendance,” he observed.

Charlie Kirk Revival

In comments to The Washington Stand, Joseph Backholm, senior research fellow for Biblical Worldview at Family Research Council, noted, “In recent years, Charlie had emphasised the importance of faith before political activity, and in his death that message landed with those who respected him.” Backholm continued, “I also think there’s an understanding that he was murdered, not because of his political positions, but because he was engaged very directly in a spiritual war. This clearly became about more than politics and an encouraging number of young people are seeing this and they want to engage in the spiritual war that inspires our political wars.”

Nearly half (47%) of Americans, including a majority (71%) of practicing Christians, said that they believe Kirk’s death will continue to have a positive impact on Christianity among younger generations, but survey respondents were less optimistic on other issues. Only about a third (34%) of polled adults said that they believe the ability to have civil political conversations will improve in the years ahead, while a similar share (33%) predicted that the ability to have civil political conversations will continue to deteriorate. Less than 30% said that Kirk’s assassination will foster cooperation between conservatives and liberals, while over a third (35%) anticipated a negative impact. The Barna Group noted that Generation Z “respondents were particularly likely to expect negative impacts on political cooperation (45% negative vs. 29% positive), American politics broadly (46% negative vs 33% positive), and civil discourse (43% negative vs 32% positive).”

“Practicing Christians held markedly different views,” the Barna Group observed. In addition to anticipating a positive impact on Christianity among young Americans, a majority (53%) of practicing Christians said that they expect Kirk’s murder to yield a positive impact on civil political discourse. Nearly half (49%) also expected Kirk’s death would have a positive impact on politics in the US and nearly as many (44%) anticipated a positive impact on the relationship between conservatives and liberals.

“It is a cliché that young people are the leaders of tomorrow because it’s true. We need future leaders who understand what time it is and the spiritual nature of our political conflicts,” Backholm told The Washington Stand. “The first responsibility of Christian adults is to disciple young people in our sphere, particularly those in our homes. Charlie was especially good at reaching young people, but he is by no means the only one capable of doing that, and now we all have to pick up the mantle.”

“Every person is on a unique spiritual journey, so there is no one way to activate people spiritually. And some people aren’t interested in the truth and can’t be activated until hearts are changed,” Backholm cautioned. “But there are always people who are seeking the truth as well, and pointing them to the truth requires us to live lives that demonstrate God’s ways are better while also being able to communicate why rebellion against God’s plan for humanity causes so much pain,” he continued. “Reality will always be on our side because God made the rules; we just need to make sure our words and lives consistently demonstrate the beauty and superiority of God’s plan. If we do, people will be interested.”

Charlie Kirk’s death fits the Biblical end times prophecies that are playing out in our world

Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.Matthew 24:9-12

We need to make sure we are not amongst the groups “many will fall away” and “the love of many will grow cold“. Instead, we need to keep our focus on the fact that Jesus is returning soon to initiate His Millennial reign with the glorified Saints on this earth. It is interesting that it was only two years ago now that God took my focus to Jesus Millennial Kingdom. I knew little about what is next on God’s agenda for planet earth. God has unfinished business with Israel. Every old testament prophet was shown that their Messiah will rule the nations of the world from a magnificent new Jerusalem.

Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will take the people of Israel from the nations among which they have gone, and will gather them from all around, and bring them to their own land. And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. And one king shall be king over them all, and they shall be no longer two nations, and no longer divided into two kingdoms. They shall not defile themselves anymore with their idols and their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But I will save them from all the backslidings in which they have sinned and will cleanse them, and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.” Ezekiel 37:21-23

You shall be called the priests of the Lord; they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God; you shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their glory, you shall boast. Instead of your shame, there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonour, they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore, in their land, they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy.” Isaiah 61:6-7

God had me set up the website http://www.millennialkingdom.net to prepare Christians for reigning with Jesus and the glorified Saints with a rod of iron. Why with a rod of iron? The curse is only partially lifted so people are still being born, sin and die. So different from what most Christians have been taught.

TRUE SPIRITUAL AWAKENING

Two of my most favoured ministers of God. Dr. John Lennox and Dr. James Tour speak on Scripture Meditation & God’s Voice. You will be blessed greatly by this conversation. Both share their life experiences getting to know God and how He speaks to us through His Word.

My own experience with God and His Word: I am challenged to ask God to speak to Me every time I open the two bibles which I believe God gave to me. When I do, the Holy Spirit always reveals something new.

I received my first bible from God in the UK, It was the New King James (The Open Bible) Expanded Edition by Thomas Nelson Publishers. I was in England at the UK Christian Booksellers Association Convention in 1985. I had purchased Christian Press Pty Ltd in 1983. It was the distributor of Thomas Nelson books and bibles in Australia. Thomas Nelson launched The Open Bible at that convention.

My youngest son Scott was with me, he was 17 at the time and had just finished the High School certificate and we had agreed he would attend Capernwray Bible College in the UK for 6 months rather than go direct to university to study economics. I knew Major Ian W. Thomas the founder of Capernwray Bible Colleges as we distributed his books in Australia. I had mentioned to him that I was concerned that Scott was too young emotionally to go to University and he suggested he attend his Bible College in Lancashire and then spend time with Scripture Union in London. Scott was more that willing to go along with this plan.

At breakfast on the first day of the CBA Convention we were sitting at a table with Arthur Farstad, Consulting Editor of the Open Bible. He heard Scott speak and asked me if Scott would read a passage from the Open Bible at the launch of the Open Bible the following night. He liked Scott’s Aussie accent and he wanted to get a number of people to read sections from the Open Bible to show that it retained the poetry of the King James version. Scott was delighted to do it and we both were given an Open Bible Expanded Edition which is a study bible (1403 pages + Concordance and maps). We both were blessed to receive it and are still using it today. The second bible I consider God gave me is the ESV Study Bible. It was given to me at the Christian Booksellers Convention in the USA in 2008 at the launch of the ESV Study Bible produced by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. Scott was also with me on this occasion only now he was working with me at Care & Share Products, a ministry of Christian Press Pty Ltd. We were not the distributor of Crossway but went to the ESV Study Bible launch. Almost 2,000 people attended. Each person was asked for their business card which was put in a bin and after the launch they picked out one card and that person was to be given a leather covered ESV Study Bible. I was the lucky person to receive that ESV Study Bible. Both Scott and I were astounded when they called out my name. I have cherished it and use it alongside my Open Study Bible.

HOW FOREIGN INFLUENCE HAS SHAPED AUSTRALIA’S ENERGY POLICY

This post follows my earlier post “Australia Needs to Learn from Germany’s $500 billion Mistake” ( based on renewable energy). It is important our politicians see that video as well as this one, so do what you can to get the message out.

Zoe Booth speaks with Gerard Holland, CEO of the Page Research Centre and founding member of the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, about the hidden forces shaping Australia’s energy transition. Holland argues that foreign money, green-lobby astroturfing, and political restrictions are distorting Australia’s energy strategy. The conversation covers new research revealing more than $108 million in foreign-funded efforts to influence energy policy, the economics of renewables, nuclear power, and the growing cost-of-living crisis. They explore why the renewable transition is struggling to deliver cheap and reliable power, how subsidies shift costs onto lower-income households, and why Australia’s policy direction risks worsening strategic and economic vulnerabilities. This episode asks: Who benefits from keeping Australia nuclear-free and energy-dependent? What if net zero isn’t achievable through renewables alone? And what does this mean for Australia’s economic and national security future?

As I believe Jesus is returning with the glorified Saints to rule the nations with a rod of iron, maybe as early as 2035, poor decisions on energy supply will be quickly put right. Nuclear Fission or even Nuclear Fusion will be possibly on the table at that time. God has given us many prophetic scriptures on Jesus coming Millennial Kingdom you can prepare to rule and reign with Jesus by going to http://www.millennialkingdom.net

“He who overcomes, and he who keeps My deeds until the end, to him I will give authority over the nations; and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, as the vessels of the potter are broken to pieces, as I also have received authority from My FatherRevelation 2:26-27

PARENTAL RIGHTS, FREE SPEECH, BIOLOGICAL REALITY AND BIBLICAL PROPHECY

FamilyVoice Australia has expressed deep concern over the New South Wales Government’s plan to develop the state’s first LGBTIQA+ Inclusion Strategy, describing it as another step toward enforcing radical gender ideology across every level of government and public life.

“The government claims this strategy will make communities stronger and more connected,” said Graeme Mitchell, Family Voice NSW State Director. Which only shows that we have a government that does not believe in God or the Bible He has given us.

In reality, it risks dividing people, silencing dissent, and undermining the rights of parents, teachers, faith communities, and especially children who hold to traditional beliefs about sex and gender.”

Mr Mitchell warned that the proposed ‘whole-of-government approach’ would likely embed gender ideology into schools, health services, and public policy, marginalising anyone who does not affirm these beliefs.

“Under the banner of ‘inclusion‘, this strategy could exclude people of faith, remove protections for women’s spaces, and pressure schools to promote harmful messages about gender identity,” he said.

“What NSW needs is truth and respect for biological reality, not policies that confuse children and punish those who speak up.”

FamilyVoice is calling on the NSW Government to withdraw the proposed strategy and instead promote genuine inclusion by protecting free speech, religious freedom, and parental rights.

Fortunately, God has revealed in His word, the Bible, that what we see unfolding in the world is exactly what would happen prior to Jesus return first to rapture His Saints before God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world and to rescue the nation He established for His purposes, Israel at the battle of Armageddon. Then Jesus and the glorified Saints will begin to rule and reign the nations of this earth for 1,000 years. The Bible is full of prophecies about Jesus coming Millennial Kingdom. You can go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net to discover what they are so you can prepare for what is next on God’s agenda for planet earth.

AUSTRALIA NEEDS TO LEARN FROM GERMANY’S $500 BILLION MISTAKE

Germany spent half a trillion dollars to become the world’s green energy superpower. Instead, they got the highest electricity prices in Europe, a dying industrial sector, and a grid that now relies on dirty coal to keep the lights on. How did the economic engine of Europe drive itself off a cliff? In this deep dive, we uncover the timeline of the Energiewende disaster. From the panic-induced shutdown of nuclear power plants to the fatal addiction to cheap Russian gas, we expose the policy failures that are forcing companies like BASF and Volkswagen to flee the country. Is this the end of “Made in Germany”? And what can the rest of the world learn from this expensive experiment?

Why doesn’t our current Minister for Climate Change and Energy in Australia, Chris Bowen learn from Germany’s $500 billion mistake?

DANIEL’S SEVENTY WEEKS PROPHECY

The Seventieth Week of Daniel – Overview

The “seventieth week” comes from Daniel 9:24–27, one of the most important prophecies in the Old Testament. It is often called Daniel’s Seventy Weeks prophecy.

The Big Picture (Daniel 9:24)

God reveals to Daniel that 70 “weeks” (literally “seventy sevens”) are determined for the Jewish people and Jerusalem to finish six great purposes:

  1. To finish the transgression
  2. To make an end of sins
  3. To make reconciliation for iniquity
  4. To bring in everlasting righteousness
  5. To seal up vision and prophecy
  6. To anoint the Most Holy (or Most Holy Place)

Almost all scholars agree that these “weeks” are weeks of years = 70 × 7 = 490 years.

How the 70 Weeks Are Divided

Daniel 9:25–27 divides the 490 years into three parts:

PeriodLengthWhat Happens
7 weeks (7 × 7)49 yearsRebuilding of Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile (walls, streets, in “troublesome times”)
62 weeks (62 × 7)434 yearsFrom the rebuilt city until “Messiah the Prince” appears
1 final week7 yearsThe 70th week – still future in most prophetic interpretations

Total so far: 7 + 62 = 69 weeks (483 years) are historically fulfilled.

The 69 Weeks (483 years) – Already Fulfilled

  • Starts with the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem (most scholars use the decree of Artaxerxes in 445/444 BC – Nehemiah 2:1–8, or sometimes 457 BC).
  • After exactly 483 prophetic years (360-day biblical years), the Messiah is “cut off” (killed).
  • This lands precisely on the time Jesus rode into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday and was later crucified (circa AD 30–33).

So the first 69 weeks are fulfilled in the First Coming of Christ.

The 70th Week – The Missing Seven Years

After the 69th week, two huge things happen before the 70th week begins:

  1. Messiah is cut off (crucified) and has nothing (rejected as king).
  2. The city and temple are destroyed (fulfilled in AD 70 by the Romans).

Then there is a giant gap (the Church Age we are in now), and the prophetic clock for Israel stops.

The 70th week (the final 7 years) is still future. It begins when a coming prince (the Antichrist) makes/confirms a covenant with “many” (Israel) for one “week” (7 years).

What Happens During the 70th Week (Daniel 9:27 + other passages)

This final 7-year period is described elsewhere as:

  • The Tribulation (Matthew 24)
  • The Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21).
  • The Rapture and the Wrath of God poured out with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements at the trumpet blast of the opening of the seventh seal at the start of the seventh year. The wrath of God is poured out for a period of one year and ten days, the same time as God poured out His wrath the first time with Noah’s flood. Why one year and ten days? The year before a Jubilee year is always one year and ten days (Revelation 6:16).

How the 70th Week Ends

At the very end of the 7 years:

  • Jesus returns visibly to earth (Second Coming)
  • The Antichrist and his armies are destroyed (Revelation 19:11–21; Zechariah 14)
  • Israel nationally repents and recognizes Jesus as Messiah (Zechariah 12:10; Romans 11:25–29)
  • The six purposes of Daniel 9:24 are finally and completely fulfilled in the Millennium

In short, the seventieth week of Daniel is a coming seven-year period, dominated by the Antichrist, cantered on Israel and a rebuilt temple, the Rapture and Wrath of God and ends with the return of Christ and the establishment of His Millennial Kingdom.

ISRAEL’S FUTURE: THE TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE

“Jacob’s Trouble” (also called “the time of Jacob’s trouble”) is a specific biblical phrase found in Jeremiah 30:7:

Alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it; it is the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.” (NKJV)

Biblical Context

The entire chapter of Jeremiah 30 is a prophecy of hope given to Israel and Judah during their exile in Babylon. God promises:

  • To restore them from captivity
  • To break the yoke of foreign oppression
  • To bring them back to their land under their own king (ultimately fulfilled in the Messiah)
  • To heal and prosper them again

However, before this full restoration comes, Israel (referred to here as “Jacob,” using the patriarch’s original name) will go through an unprecedented period of suffering and distress.

Key Characteristics of “Jacob’s Trouble”

  1. Uniqueness and Severity
    • “That day is great, so that none is like it” (Jeremiah 30:7) – it is unparalleled in history.
    • Jesus quotes similar language in the Olivet Discourse: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be (Matthew 24:21), linking the two passages.
  2. Focused on Israel/Jacob
    • The trouble is specifically called “Jacob’s” (not the church’s or the world’s in general), indicating it primarily affects the Jewish people and the nation of Israel.
    • Other Old Testament passages describe the same period using different names:
      • “The indignation” (Isaiah 26:20; Daniel 11:36)
      • “The time of trouble” (Daniel 12:1)
      • “The day of the Lord”
      • “The seventieth week of Daniel” (Daniel 9:27)
      • “The great tribulation” (Matthew 24:21; Revelation 7:14)
  3. Deliverance at the End
    • Jeremiah 30:7 ends with hope: “…but he [Jacob/Israel] shall be saved out of it.”
    • Daniel 12:1 says Michael the archangel will stand up for Israel, and “at that time your people shall be delivered.”
    • Zechariah 13–14 and Romans 11:25–29 describe Israel’s national repentance and acceptance of the Messiah at the end of this period.

In short, “Jacob’s Trouble” is widely understood in prophetic studies as the Bible’s term for an unparalleled future time of distress centred on the Jewish people, out of which God will ultimately deliver and restore a repentant Israel when the Messiah returns and establishes His Millennial Kingdom

The Bible reveals this Earth’s history is young, not billions of years old as the theory of evolution would lead us to believe. Despite there being billions of dead things buried whole throughout the world, which must have been buried quickly to be whole, as well, enormous amounts of fossil fuels formed from buried vegetation, the scientists of the world deny the Biblical flood of Noah’s day, because it does not align with their naturalist view of the world forming itself over billions of years. The Bible reveals that Noah’s flood was a catastrophic event that changed the entire geomorphology of the planet.

Biblical history reveals that Satan has had 6,000 years to rule over the Earth. Jesus will soon have 1,000 years to rule and reign with the glorified Saints, Satan and I assume his demons are bound during Jesus reign

And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.Revelation 20:2-3

Nevertheless, we are told Jesus and the Saints rule with a rod of iron during the Millennium as the curse is only partially lifted, mainly in Israel, so people are still being born, still sin, and die. Moreover, at the end of the Millennium, Satan is released and he still raises an army like the sand of the sea.

And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them.” Revelation 20:7-9

Even with Jesus and the glorified Saints being on earth people will still rebel and like Satan and the demons will want to be God of their world. For more on Jesus Millennial Kingdom go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net.

Finally, after 7,000 years, this Earth’s history is complete and God destroys the Earth with fire, The second resurrection of the dead takes place before Jesus White Throne judgement. Only after the White Throne judgement does the apostle John see a magnificent and enormous new Jerusalem descending from a new heaven onto a new earth where only the righteous dwell with both our heavenly Father and Jesus.
