THE LEADERS BEING ELECTED INTO HIGH OFFICE IN THE USA

All of America’s financial problems have been solved by the economic mastermind, Jamaal Bowman. We simply have to create the money out of thin air and give it to people according to the wishes of politicians. Jamal Bowman is a congressman representing constituents in New York City.

His latest crusade is to demand that descendants of former slaves receive, “at a minimum”, a whopping $14 trillion worth of reparations. Bear in mind that $14 trillion is more than half the size of the entire US economy, more than three times federal tax revenue. It’s an absurd amount of money… raising an obvious question: where in the world does he think this money will come from considering the national debt is already $34 trillion?

“Where did the money come from,” Bowman asked, “when Covid was destroying us?” His answer? We spent it into existence.”

Don’t worry, Bowman says, the MINIMUM $14 trillion he’s proposing doesn’t have to be paid all at once. It could be paid over 5 to 10 years.

Can you believe 133,567 voters in the greater New York City area saw fit to elect Jamaal in a landslide victory? History indicates that bad economic times and financial crises tend to give fanatical socialists the opportunity to win elections. They promise the world– free money for everyone, with no consequences and plenty of voters are gullible enough to believe the lies.

Thank goodness Jesus is returning soon to restore righteousness on this Earth with his millennial reign.

Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also, I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.” Revelation 20:4-6

PROPHESIED ROLE OF MUSLIMS IN THE END TIMES

We have to understand that on October 7th, 2023 something unbelievable happened in Israel. Something that’s really beyond imagination. Hamas fighters — but not only them, because it was Islamic Jihad, random Gazans came into Israel [too] — penetrated into the kibbutzim, to the villages around Gaza, and basically butchered 1,200 Israelis [including] kids in their beds. They raped women, they beheaded babies. They slaughtered parents in front of their kids and took 240 of them into Gaza.

When we hear politicians or protestors calling for a two-state solution, we need to remember that Israel tried that. In fact, many Israelis gave up their own land in 2005 to make it work. What was the outcome: Since 2001, Palestinian militants have launched tens of thousands of rocket and mortar attacks on Israel from the Gaza Strip and now the Hamas invasion with unspeakable terror.  A poll conducted in September 2014 found that 80% of Palestinians support firing rockets against Israel

Within the Muslim Middle East, everything is very simple. … If you’re weak, we will come and kill you. This is how it goes. … Hamas succeeded in doing something that all the Arab armies hadn’t succeeded in doing in 75 years. Hamas invaded Israel in one day. And if the Palestinians get a state at the end of it, it means it was worth it.

If Israel is forced into a two-state solution, what will happen next? “Radical Islam, because of it, will raise its head all over the world. We can already see it. It began in Europe. You can already see they’re telling the Christians in Europe, ‘We want to apply Sharia rules here in your countries, you are our slaves.’ This is how they treat Christians in Europe today. This is what they want to see in America. This is what they want to see in the entire Western civilization and they will never give up.

This is spiritual warfare and Biblical end times prophecy tells us that it will only get more intense.

Satan is about to be cast out of heaven and he knows his time is short. Note what it says about Earth: “But woe to the earth and the sea because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury because he knows that his time is short.Revelation 12:12

Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.Revelation 12:7-9

End times Biblical prophecy tells us that the next war will be between the Muslims, Turkey (Sunni) will seek to establish a revived Ottoman Empire and will defeat Iran (Shia) which is currently trying to establish its dominance in the Middle East through its proxies Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and Houthis in Yemen, as well as its proxies in Iraq and Syria. We are then told that Turkey’s efforts are short-lived and it is broken up into four probably by the United Nations forces. It is out of one of these four that the “Little Horn”, the Antichrist arises (Daniel 8:9). He will be of Muslim descent and be seen by them as their long-awaited Mahdi. Just look at the percentage of Muslims in each country that expect the Mahdi to return in their lifetime.

RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS IS INCREASING

God has warned us that before Jesus returns to put things right the world will be like it was during the days of Noah, Godlessness, violence, and lawlessness will abound. He has given us 2000 prophecies that tell us about the events that precede Jesus’ second coming.

Religious persecution against Christians in the Western world is rising at an alarming rate, according to a new report from Family Research Council’s Center for Religious Liberty. The report states, “As the mainstream culture moves further and further away from a Christian worldview, Christian beliefs that contradict progressive secular values are increasingly denounced by the culture and wrongly portrayed as being hateful or bigoted.”

“This report is a warning call,” wrote FRC President Tony Perkins in a letter attached to the report. “It is shocking to see Western countries — the same ones we think of as free and open societies — take authoritarian measures against Christians simply trying to live out their faith. Hostility toward Bible-believing Christians is clearly and steadily rising in the West.” Perkins, former commissioner of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, added, “Religious freedom is the foundation for the human rights that Western democracies seek to promote abroad. Yet, the ability to promote this fundamental human right will be lost if we do not protect it within our borders.”

In the United Kingdom, two town councilors were penalized (one was even arrested) for speaking out against a local Pride parade, a school chaplain was fired for telling students they don’t “have to accept the ideas of LGBT activists,” and at least six people were arrested or fined for praying outside abortion facilities or holding pro-life signs.

In Canada, a pastor was arrested twice for praying outside a library drag queen story hour, a church was fined for hosting in-person services in 2020, and a teen at a Catholic school was arrested for organizing a protest against biological men using women’s bathrooms. A Christian hybrid school was shut down in Germany, a Maltese health care worker was charged with a crime for sharing in an interview how he left the homosexual lifestyle, a Norwegian city denied Christian organizations community grant funding due to their biblical views on sex and gender, a woman was arrested in Spain for praying the rosary, and a Swedish bakery was investigated for refusing to bake a same-sex wedding cake.

Perkins noted, “This report is merely a sampling of the rise of actions by Western governmental officials that target Christians’ ability to practice and express their faith, especially in the public square.” He explained that the report “is a call to individuals to vigorously exercise their religious freedom while at the same time calling upon government officials to recognize and prioritize the protection of this fundamental human right so that religious freedom can continue to be promoted around the world.”

Fortunately, Jesus told us that the world would persecute Christians and even put us to death in the last days before He returns; first to rescue the Saints and then to pour out His wrath upon an unrepentant world. Sadly, Jesus tells us that many will fall away from faith, betray one another, and hate one another at this time. Patient endurance will be needed, and total trust in God regardless of the outcome knowing He is sovereign.

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. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:9-14

APOCALYPTIC EVANGELISM

Great teaching from Reggie Kelly of Mystery of Israel (www.mysteryofisrael.org) on the end times. What a great opportunity Christians will have to witness for Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit (Trinity). As all of the end times prophecies unfold we will be able to show many people the truth of God and His Word. We need to be able to use all of the end-time prophecies for evangelism. Hence we need great teachers like Reggie Kelly, Nelson Walters, Matthew Bryce Ervin, Travis Snow, and Joel Richardson to name a few. God has equipped these men to preach on the end times Scriptures.

You will also find great teaching on http://www.creation.com and http://www.answersingenesis.org.

My job is as a connector of people to ministries that God is using at this important time in history when end times prophecies are being fulfilled. In 2014, God did prompt me to write Living Eternal Now – Ready for Jesus’ Return. It is available on Amazon and from me: ron.careshare@gmail.com. If you are in ministry I will give you a copy as long as you pay the freight.

How many churches today are preparing their congregations for Jesus’ second coming? There are many more prophecies about Jesus’ second coming than His first. The Pharisees and Sadducees totally rejected the Scriptures of Jesus’ first coming. Let us make sure the church acts on the Scriptures that prophecy Jesus’ second coming.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA, PART 5

I have already covered 1. The Pagan Ritual established the Satanic authority that WEF is operating under. 2. The precursor to the Mark of the Beast – a Digital ID, 3. Global Taxes that will fund WEF’s agenda, Part 4: Efforts to “Force” Social Media Companies to Yield to Government Censorship. and now 5. Reigning in Donald Trump, and U.S. Sovereignty

A persistent discomfort pulsed through the 2024 World Economic Forum: the possibility Donald Trump will defeat Joe Biden this November. To compensate, multiple speakers discussed the joys of circumventing democracy and hemming in Trump, or any elected leader who represents the average man instead of Davos Man.

“How are we assessing the election risk? There is a risk the wrong leaders will get elected,” declared Bloomberg TV’s Haslinda Amin while moderating WEF’s panel on global risks. To assure WEF had no doubts about who the “wrong leaders” might be, Alex Soros claimed Friday that America had an “unwritten” system of checks and balances until “one man, Donald Trump, literally came in and just took that all away.”

“So, what Trump is a monster at is, sort of, completely rattling and bringing down, sort of, the structures of institutions,” added Soros’s fellow panelist Rachel Botsman, who describes herself as “a world-renowned expert on an explosive new era of trust and technology”, and yet she delivered this babble. “Democracy often depends on trustworthy systems being able to hold untrustworthy individuals, right?” asked Botsman rhetorically, ironically in a panel on global democracy.

“Fortunately, the United States has very strong institutions,” including “the courts,” replied S&P Global President Douglas L. Peterson. “We’re gonna have to rely on them, depending on what the outcome of the election is. And we also need to make sure we stay engaged through global institutions like the United Nations, NATO, and other organizations around the world — and I add into that international trade pacts,” to limit U.S. sovereignty under Donald Trump. 

However, a U.S. government official revealed that globalists do not intend to rely solely on government institutions. Climate Envoy John Kerry boasted that no president would be able to stop the Green agenda favored by WEF elites, due to public-private partnerships and government incentives.

“I don’t want this obviously, but if you wound up with a different president who was opposed to climate crisis, I got news for you: “No one politician anywhere in the world can undo what is happening now”, boasted Kerry. “You know as well as I do,” Kerry told his fellow WEF attendees. “The marketplace is doing this. The only issue for all of us is not whether or not we can get or will get to a low carbon and no carbon economy globally. We will.”

In reality, “the marketplace” is taking taxpayer funds and following government dictates to produce electric vehicles consumers do not want. The Biden administration dedicated $12 billion — including $2 billion in grants — to convert U.S. auto plants into EV plants and another $7.5 billion to build charging stations which, sadly, do not charge in the winter. But in November, nearly 4,000 car dealers informed the Biden administration, “The supply of unsold BEVs (battery electric vehicles) is surging, as they are not selling nearly as fast as they are arriving at our dealerships — even with deep price cuts, manufacturer incentives, and generous government incentives.” No doubt technology will eventually produce batteries that charge quickly and can deliver long mileage, safely at low and high temperatures but this is not the case at the moment so government efforts to force change will not happen without a “police state”.

It is so comforting to know that God is in control and that events are totally under His control. Moreover, He told us in advance so that we would know He is in control. The coming tribulation that He allows Christians to experience is to purify His bride.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA, PART 4

I have already covered 1. The Pagan Ritual established the Satanic authority that WEF is operating under. 2. The precursor to the Mark of the Beast – a Digital ID and 3. Global Taxes that will fund WEF’s agenda and now Part 4: Efforts to “Force” Social Media Companies to Yield to Government Censorship.

WEF attendees are not like other people. WEF’s panel on “Protecting Democracy against Bots and Plots” complained that social media titans faced “scrutiny” and sought ways to “force” companies to comply with free speech restrictions.

4. Global Media

Social media platforms that are “still keeping up the work” to censor, ban, or suppress disfavored views “are facing more political scrutiny and pressure to disband those efforts than ever,” groused Alexandra Reeve Givens, the daughter of actor Christopher Reeve and CEO of the Google-aligned Center for Democracy and Technology. “In the United States, for example, right now we have congressional investigations and lawsuits against people who study mis- and disinformation on social media platforms. There is currently an injunction in place stopping the Biden administration from communicating with social media platforms.” The fact that an American judge would prevent a Democratic administration from breaking the law creates a “bizarre environment” that undermines “trust and safety for our online environment,” said Reeve. “We have to have the social media companies keep up the work.”

“Is there a way to force them?” asked moderator Ravi Agrawal, editor-in-chief of Foreign Policy magazine.

This is no passing concern for WEF. It listed misinformation and disinformation as the greatest threat to America, a point driven home on WEF 2024’s opening day by the president of the EU Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. An unexpected note of concern came Friday from Alex Soros, the scion of George Soros who now leads the Hungarian-born billionaire’s tax-exempt political influence operation. “If we play too much on this disinformation card, we’re taking responsibility away from ourselves to actually create a narrative that inspires people to vote,” said Soros, speaking in a rapid staccato of stops and starts punctuated by verbalized pauses.

Already, unelected bureaucrats have substantially leaned on social media platforms to silence stories they dislike in the name of COVID-19 “disinformation” or fighting “Russian interference” in U.S. elections. “We learned Twitter, Facebook, Google, and other companies developed a formal system for taking in moderation requests from every corner of government, from the FBI, the DHS, the HHS, DOD, the Global Engagement Center at State, even the CIA,” liberal journalist Matt Taibbi revealed. “For every government agency scanning Twitter, there were perhaps 20 quasi-private entities doing the same thing, including Stanford’s Election Integrity Partnership, NewsGuard, the Global Disinformation Index, and many others — many taxpayer-funded.”

Likewise, Michael Shellenberger testified before Congress last December that, as “DHS-empowered researchers were asking social media platforms to take down, throttle, or otherwise censor social media posts, the president of the United States was accusing Big Tech of ‘killing people,’ his then-press secretary said publicly that the administration was ‘flagging violative posts for Facebook,’ members of Congress threatened to strip social media platforms of their legal right to operate because, they said, the platforms weren’t censoring enough.”

When they start talking about misinformation and disinformation, that’s just code; that’s just Orwellian speak for ending free speech. And their primary target is to go after X or Twitter.

WEF, which calls itself “the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation,” seems happy to have government censorship formally carried out by the “private sector.” Such censorship aims to constrict political debate, stifle dissent, and prevent average American citizens from having any meaningful voice in their own government — or even complain about it online.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA, PART 3

I have already covered 1. The Pagan Ritual established the Satanic authority that WEF is operating under. 2. The precursor to the Mark of the Beast – a Digital ID and now we come to 3. Global Taxes that will fund WEF’s agenda.

3. Global Taxes

True global governance requires money and authority — and the WEF discussed measures that would expand both at our expense. One speaker at the 2024 World Economic Forum advised that global bodies impose, not one, but two global taxes on the entire world. “Let’s start taxing carbon,” advised Amnesty International Secretary General Agnès Callamard at Friday’s WEF panel on “global risks.” She added that governments should enact “not just [a] carbon tax. The U.N. General Assembly has adopted a resolution … on the necessity to have a global tax regime, so that actually we can raise the money required for all [the U.N.’s proposed] changes. … Let’s tax the corporate interests.”

The Biden administration took the first step toward such a tax in 2021, when it supported a “Global Minimum Tax.” The Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) agreed to an outline of a 15% tax, which would allow foreign nations to tax U.S.-based corporations. According to the OECD’s latest update, 55 nations have begun adopting the putatively voluntary guidelines, “with the rules coming into effect in 2024.”

President Joe Biden has also taken advice from carbon tax advocates. The Obama-Biden administration’s science czar, John Holdren — who wrote a book outlining an Orwellian global regime, including forced abortions for Americans with discredited climate alarmist Paul Ehrlich — “worked closely with the Biden campaign,” according to The New York Times. In 2007, Holdren proposed “a global framework” to impose “a substantial price on carbon emissions in all countries,” preferably via a “carbon tax.” This global tax would conclude with U.N.-strength IRS confiscating and “transferring some of the revenue produced by carbon taxes” away from the West. Such taxes fall hardest on the poor and make reliable energy less accessible. In office, Joe Biden has ordered all federal agencies to write regulations assessing the “social cost of carbon.” Presumably, the global ID would make it more difficult to avoid paying a global tax. It is obvious that beginning with Obama the Democrats were open to transferring power to a global elite of which Obama would take a leading role.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA, PART 2

I have already covered the fact that WEF concluded its Wednesday forum on “Climate and Nature” by inviting a shaman to carry out a pagan ritual for the healing of the planet, because “the healing is spiritual.” This established who is really controlling the outcome of this conference and it is certainly not the Holy Spirit.

The most important item on WEF’s meeting agenda: A Digital ID to Track each person’s Whole Life

One of the elitists’ central conceits is that they have the right to surveil every aspect of their subjects’ lives, for their own good. One invaluable tool in the effort is a mandatory identification card that puts as much information as possible at the government’s fingerprints — as noted during WEF’s Thursday panel on “financial inclusion.” Queen Máxima of the Netherlands (whose grandfather, Prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld, co-founded the Bilderberg Group in 1954) urged governments to adopt a “ubiquitous” ID card that is “digital” and “biometric.” Such an ID can not only provide surveillance over the financial industry, she said: “It’s also good for school enrollment,” and to see “who actually got a vaccination,” as well as facilitating the redistribution of wealth to see that welfare recipients and other favored classes “get your subsidies from the government.”

The WEF has discussed digital IDs and apps for years. In 2022, Alibaba Group President J. Michael Evans announced that he was developing new technology “for consumers to measure their own carbon footprint.” This device would monitor “where are they traveling, how are they traveling, what are they eating, what are they consuming on the platform.” Of course, if the individual can measure his or her carbon footprint, so can the government — which can then microtarget and micromanage individuals’ lives. “We don’t have it operational yet,” Evans said two years ago, “but this is something that we’re working on.”

For his part, former President Donald Trump vowed this month he’d “never allow the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency,” or CBDC. “Such a currency would give the federal government absolute control of your money,” a proposition he called a tool of “government tyranny” and “a dangerous threat to freedom.” (He credited his position, which he adopted the day after the Iowa Caucus, to Vivek Ramaswamy.) This is one of the reasons the elite will make sure Trump does not win the next election.

What we see unfolding now fits with what the Apostle John describes in Revelation: the ruler of a vast empire having power and great authority, given to him by Satan himself (Revelation 13:2). This ruler receives worship from “all the world” (Revelation 13:3–4) and will have authority over “every tribe, people, language and nation” (Revelation 13:7). This person will truly be the leader of a one-world government that is recognized as sovereign over all other governments.

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM 2024 AGENDA

The World Economic Forum held its 54th meeting in Davos, Switzerland, from January 15-19, 2024. Its speeches included Al Gore tying climate change ideology to the Bible, John Kerry’s daughter rambling incoherently, and John Kerry boasting that “no one politician anywhere in the world can undo” efforts to impose the WEF’s agenda. WEF is so significant in establishing the Biblical end-times prophecy of a one-world government I will cover just one or two significant moments/outcomes of the conference in several WEF posts. The first sets the tone of the whole meeting.

1. A Pagan Ritual

The 2024 World Economic Forum became a coming-out party, displaying the WEF’s love of paganism. WEF concluded its Wednesday forum on “Climate and Nature” by inviting a shaman to carry out a pagan ritual for the healing of the planet, because “the healing is spiritual.”

The moderator, Gim Huay Neo, closed the discussion by inviting “a very special guest,” Chieftess Putanny Yawanawá of Brazil’s Yawanawá tribe, whose “cultural and spiritual identities” let them “protect and steward the lands … over thousands of years.” Neo continued, “We know that in order for us to look forward and build this future, we also need to look back and harness the wisdom of our ancestors.” None of the panelists, who represent the power and wealth created by Western civilization, were descended from the Yawanawá tribe. Nor do most Americans have any desire to live like the Yawanawá tribe, whose entire population consists of about 1,200 people in 12 villages.

Chieftess Putanny began her healing ritual by saying she represented “the voice of all the forest people” and “the voice of the forest.” She then asked the crowd of elite secularists to “hold hands and unite our hearts, unite our thoughts in the same direction for healing of the planet. And the healing is spiritual.” She then rubbed her hands together, chanted an incantation, and proceeded to breathe on the foreheads of the panelists. Some of the WEF’s secular elitists, not knowing how to react, briefly broke out into applause.

The recipients of the shaman’s spirit included Klaus Schwab’s wife, Hilde Schwab; the president of the World Bank Group, Ajay S. Banga; the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Georgieva; the CEO of IKEA, Jesper Brodin; billionaire André Hoffmann; the moderator, Neo; and one figure of particular importance to evangelical Christians.

“Fun little cameo for Southern Baptists. See the second person on this panel, having a pagan ritual performed over her? That is Dr. Katharine Hayhoe who promotes climate alarmism among evangelicals,” noted evangelical investigative journalist Megan Basham. She noted the president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Danny Akin, “has promoted [Hayhoe] to students” of the ministry school. Hayhoe spoke at a 2021 SEBTS conference on “The Goodness of Creation and Human Responsibility,” where she said she embraced climate change because of her faith, and w as was interviewed on the seminary’s “Christ and Culture” podcast. (Interestingly, Al Gore would also tie climate alarmism to the Bible at the WEF on Wednesday, insisting, “Every night on the television news is like a nature hike through the Book of Revelation.”)

Those who watched this pagan ritual can hardly find a more fitting illustration of Jesus’s words, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of!” (Luke 9:55). Would you want anyone possessed of such a spirit making your laws, writing your HR regulations, or teaching your children?

PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS RAMPANT AND INCREASING

“We live in a world where the violent persecution of Christians and other religious groups is rampant and increasing,” says Ronald Boyd-MacMillan, GCR’s (Global Christian Relief) Chief of Global Strategy and Research. “This database not only helps us track the violence but helps us better understand what persecuted Christians really need from their brothers and sisters around the world.”

The database will be featured at the International Religious Freedom Summit in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 30-31. It will also contribute to the upcoming GCR Global Religious Freedom Index, a comprehensive tool launching this spring, the group says.

According to Aid to the Church in Need, over 4.9 billion people reside in countries with severe violations of religious freedom. These 4.9 billion people live in 61 countries, where the state of religious freedom, as secured in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, looks grim, said an ACN report titled “Religious Freedom in the World Report 2023” that covered the period from January 2021 to December 2022.

It means that 62% of humanity lives in countries where people are not free to practice, express or change their religion,” ACN said. “Culprits of religious freedom violations range from armed terror groups to authoritarian governments, but the rule continues to be one of impunity for attackers who are rarely if ever, brought to justice or criticized by the international community.”

Of the 61 countries, 28 were marked in red, denoting “hot countries” where persecution is rampant, while an additional 33 were marked in orange, indicating high levels of discrimination.

Read what Jesus told his disciples: Persecution Will Come
Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves. Beware of men, for they will deliver you over to courts and flog you in their synagogues, and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the Gentiles. When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death, and you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household.
Matthew 10:16-25

Moreover, as we approach the time of Jesus’ return to Earth, Jesus told us it will be a time of great tribulation so that we will not be taken by surprise.

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. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.Matthew 24:9-14
