The letter to the Hebrews was written to encourage Christians in times of trial. Considering the increasing persecution of Christians even in the West it is helpful to look at what it teaches.
It does so by focusing on the absolute supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus Christ. While God spoke in the past “many times and in many ways,” he has now spoken to us “through his Son,” Jesus Christ, who is the “exact imprint” of God’s nature and who “upholds the universe by the word of his power” (Hebrews 1:1-3). Jesus accomplished complete salvation for all who trust in him (Hebrews 1:1–10:18). We dare not “neglect such a great salvation” (Hebrews 2:3; 5:12–6:20; 10:19-39). Rather, in our faith and in our everyday living, we should imitate the example of Christ and of those on the honor roll of faith (Hebrews chapts.11–13).
In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
WARNING AGAINST APOSTASY
“Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16
The following Scripture gives us a sobering message. ”Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, and of instruction about washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And this we will do if God permits. For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.” Hebrews 6:1-6
Jesus made it possible for our Heavenly Father to send the Holy Spirit to indwell the spirit of every believer to be their Counsellor, Teacher, and Comforter. The Holy Spirit enables us to live the Christian life as long as we say, as Jesus did, not my will but yours be done today and every day. We are told that we can grieve the Holy Spirit and quench His work in our lives. The fruit of the Holy Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, faithfulness, gentleness, goodness, kindness, and self-control. If these are not evident in your life then you are grieving the Holy Spirit and you need to get on your knees and repent.
We are in the prophesied last days before Jesus returns and restores righteousness on this Earth and ushers in His Millennial reign. Probably the most significant end times prophecy was Israel being re-established as a nation in 1948. The spiritual battle then escalated. Israel is surrounded by hostile nations intent on its destruction. Just look at the intensity and horrific nature of the recent attack by Hamas with over 1000 Israelis killed and 2000 injured. As well, many Israeli women and children have been taken hostage. As a result, Netanyahu has declared the nation is at war. Wars and rumours of wars are end times signs as are earthquakes.
“And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.”Matthew 24:6-8
A magnitude-6.3 earthquake and strong aftershocks have killed more than 2,000 people in western Afghanistan, according to Taliban officials. It’s one of the deadliest earthquakes to strike the country in two decades.
One of Australia’s most senior Catholics has warned that a proposal being considered by the ACT Labor-Greens government to allow teenagers as young as 14 to access voluntary assisted dying could see assisted suicide become available to “anyone that wants it”. Sydney Archbishop Anthony Fisher said that every jurisdiction that had introduced assisted suicide had relaxed restrictions over time, cautioning that by setting such a low bar the ACT would see standards “end up in the gutter with no protections at all”. ACT Human Rights Minister Tara Cheyne said that the government was considering allowing children as young as 14 to access voluntary assisted dying, unveiling a community consultation report to help shape legislation to be introduced by the end of the year. “The fact is, every jurisdiction in the world that has gone down the euthanasia path has then gradually stripped away its protections,” Archbishop Fisher said.
“So, if we start as the ACT’s proposing to start, with the bar already very low, well they’re just going to end up in the gutter with no protections at all.” Archbishop Fisher branded the ACT government led by Chief Minister Andrew Barr, a “radical government” that he didn’t trust to enforce safeguards around assisted suicide. He also questioned why 14-year-olds were considered too young to drive and vote but mature enough to “make a life-and-death decision”. “Victoria has only had euthanasia for a year or two, and they’re already talking about removing most of the protections,” he said. “Well, if the ACT starts with almost none, where are they going to be two or three years on? “My guess is it will be euthanasia on demand for anyone that wants it, and that’s exactly, for some of the proponents of this, their ultimate goal.”
Ms Cheyne rejected as arbitrary the requirement in other Australian jurisdictions for assisted suicide to be accessed only by people with a life expectancy of between six and 12 months, and left the door open for dementia patients to access the scheme. NSW, Victoria, Western Australia, Queensland, South Australia, and Tasmania have legalised assisted suicide for people over 18 years old who have a terminal illness and are given less than six to 12 months to live. Health Minister Mark Butler and opposition health spokeswoman Anne Ruston said they would not comment on territory issues. Five MPs representing the ACT independent senator David Pocock, Finance Minister Katy Gallagher, and Labor members Andrew Leigh Alicia Payne and David Smith also declined to comment. Nationals MP Barnaby Joyce questioned the suggestion that 14-year-olds were mature enough to make an “informed cogent decision about the most precious thing they have, which is their life”.
“It’s what happens when you have a Greens left-wing Labor government and the idea the state reigns supreme over the individual; it’s the removal of all forms of religion to be replaced with the ethos of the state,” Barnaby said. The architect of the world’s first right-to-die laws and former Northern Territory chief minister Marshall Perron said it was “very hard to put a finger” on when a teenager developed the decision-making capacity to be eligible for assisted suicide. “You’ll get a different opinion from different people … 16 and 17 would be an easier step to go,” he said. “However, there is an argument to go beyond that. If we’re talking about terminally ill individuals who are going to die and are suffering horrifically, I mean, anyone who’s a parent would have to have some sympathy for the child.”
What we are seeing is just a prelude to the coming of the man of lawlessness, the Antichrist, but the good news is; the return of Jesus to restore righteousness and rule and reign with the resurrected Saints during Jesus’ transitional Millennial Kingdom is not too far off.
“Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him… Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:1,3-4
The artwork is an artistic metaphor for CERN’s study of the “cosmic dance” of subatomic particles. In Hinduism, Nataraja is a depiction of the god Shiva as the cosmic dancer. The god, who danced the universe into existence, preserves it, and will one day destroy it, is a symbol of shakti, or life force.
CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear Research, and they operate the largest particle physics laboratory in the world, where the renowned Large Hadron Collider (LHC) resides. The LHC, also referred to as CERN, is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator, and the largest machine man has ever made; it spans a whopping 17 miles in length and is buried 574 feet beneath the earth’s surface. Many eminent physicists believe that it has the potential to not only destroy the world but also the universe itself.
the top officials at CERN actually have something else in mind—something far more sinister. What these scientists are really trying to accomplish, I believe, is to access an inter-dimensional doorway, and this is not just hinted by their iconography and occult connections (as we shall see below) but something they have suggested themselves.
“The Large Hadron Collider could open a doorway to another dimension, and out this door might come something, or we might send something through it.” (source)
As disturbing as this statement is to us Christians who believe in the existence of another spiritual dimension, this is apparently nothing new for the scientists at CERN. They believe in the existence of other parallel and alternative dimensions (physics dictates that there are at least eleven of them), and they believe that in recreating the conditions of the Big Bang, scientists can rip open the veil that separates the two. However, the scientists at CERN seem to have no real understanding of how utterly dangerous this could be…
CERN & Revelation 9
The talk of opening a doorway into another dimension where “something” might come out reminds me of Revelation 9:1-3, which reads:
“To him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit…And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth…” (Revelation 9:1-3)
In this passage, John tells us about a future time when Satan is given the key to the “bottomless pit” to release a horde of demonic beings resembling locusts upon the world. I wonder if this biblical event is connected with the experiments going on at CERN? It is noteworthy that the term “bottomless pit” is translated from the Greek word abussos, which literally means “shaft of the abyss,” implying that it is not simply a pit but rather a tunnel leading to the abyss. The concept of a tunnel (wormhole) leading to another dimension or a black hole is central to CERN. In fact, scientists frequently use the term “bottomless pit” to refer to a black hole!
Another intriguing fact is that the town where CERN is located was called “Appolliacum” in Roman times, where a temple existed in honor of Apollyon the destroyer. The Romans believed that this site was a gateway to the underworld, which is significant given the association of the “bottomless pit” with the underworld. Compare this to Revelation 9:11, which states:
“And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.” (Revelation 9:11)
This verse tells us that Apollyon is the angel of the bottomless pit and the king of the demonic “locusts” that are unleashed! Is it a coincidence that CERN is built on the town dedicated to Apollyon? Is it also a coincidence that a statue of the Hindu god Lord Shiva, the “god of Destruction,” is prominently displayed outside of CERN? (Apollyon in Greek means “Destruction.”)
CERN’s Iconography and Occult Connections
As if it was not already obvious enough concerning their intentions, consider the following:
1. The CERN logo is 3 intertwined 6s (as in 666). There is no logical reason for this 666 pattern since the tunnels in CERN’s facilities are not arranged like this.
2. CERN is the birthplace of the World Wide Web (WWW). Interestingly, the Hebrew equivalent of our “w” is the letter “vav” or “waw,” which has the numerical value of 6. So the English “www” transliterated into Hebrew is “vav vav vav” or 666.
3. CERN derives its name from the horned god Cernunnos, who is associated with the underworld. As mentioned earlier, the “bottomless pit” is associated with the underworld. It is also interesting that CERN conducts its “god” harnessing experiments deep underground.
4. The machine at CERN has 8 spokes/tubes radiating from its center, which resemble the occultic Wheel of Dharma. Interestingly, CERN has named this structure “ATLAS.” In the video series “Discourses on an Alien Sky#13,” David Talbott suggests that the Cosmic Mountain associated with the Tower of Babel was also represented by Atlas in Greek mythology. According to the myth, Atlas carried the weight of the heavens on his shoulders. ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus) is also the name of an experiment at CERN, which brings me to my next point…
5. The acronyms CERN has used to title many of their experiments are demonic. These acronyms include SATAN (Solar Axion Telescopic ANtenna), which later had its name changed to CAST; DELPHI (DEtector with Lepton, Photon and Hadron Identification), which was a sanctuary of the god Apollo; and HADES (High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer), which is the name of both the underworld and the god of the underworld. You can verify these and further examples on their own website here.
6. On March 14th, 2015, CERN released a strange occultic preview video titled “SYMMETRY.” The video was filmed inside CERN and appears to contain at least some occult elements, which have nothing to do with the video’s theme of finding the smallest particle. It has suggestions of rebirth, falling into an abyss or even another plane of existence or time travel, and a dance dedicated to destruction before the resurgence. This weird, occult dance is highly significant in light of the fact that the large statue of Shiva sitting outside the CERN complex is seen performing this dance. You can view the video below.
7. On June 1st, 2016, the Gotthard Base Tunnel in Switzerland, the world’s largest railway tunnel, marked its grand opening with an extremely bizarre, deeply occultic, satanic ceremony. Of significance is the fact that it occurred near CERN, also located over the area claimed to be the entrance to the underworld, and images that were projected on a massive video screen during the ceremony suggest a connection to CERN (e.g., the multi-armed Shiva doing the cosmic dance and the Atlas coming up out of CERN). The Gotthard ceremony featured a “goat-man” resembling Baphomet, who dies, is resurrected, worshipped and crowned as “the king of the world.” In recent decades, Baphomet has become one of the key symbols used to represent Satan in the occult community. Other blatant occult references in the ceremony included the Eye of Providence, prophecy, Lucifer, fallen angels, and more. You can watch video footage of the full ceremony below.
8. On August 11th, 2016, a bizarre leaked video surfaced of a satanic ritual human sacrifice taking place on the grounds of CERN in front of the Shiva statue. The video shows several individuals (unnamed scientists at CERN) in black cloaks gathering in front of the Shiva statue, in what appears to be a re-enactment of an occult ceremony, at the end of which a woman is stabbed.Whatever the intentions behind this ritual, the result is the same: It is yet another strange, ritualistic event associated with CERN. You can view the leaked video footage of the mock sacrifice below. [NB: Video contains strong language]
Conclusion
All of the coincidences, symbols, and patterns of occult rituals beg the question of whether the scientists at CERN may inadvertently open a door to the spiritual realm, possibly even to the bottomless pit. While we must keep in mind that Revelation 9 describes an angel holding the key to the bottomless pit, and anything beyond that is pure speculation, it is hard to ignore the disturbing occult connections related to this “scientific” facility and its weird obsession with Apollyon.
It is also interesting to note the parallels between CERN and the people of Babel in Genesis 11, especially given the consequences they faced for trying to reach the heavens (Gen. 11:9). Consider the following:
CERN is attempting to reach into the heavens with its LHC, just as the people of Babel wanted to construct a tower to reach the heavens (Gen. 11:4).
CERN has created the largest machine ever made, just as the people of Babel made the tallest building ever made (Gen. 11:4).
CERN created the World Wide Web to unite people under one language, and its project is a collaboration among 22 member states, just as the people of Babel spoke the same language and were united in their ambition (Gen. 11:6).
Ample evidence we are living in the prophesied end times prior to Jesus second coming. Are you prepared for the increasing persecution Jesus told us would occur leading up to the great tribulation during the time of the Antichrist and the False Prophet?
Doug Hamp and Nelson Walters reveal in this video “Satan’s End Times Strategy” what the Bible reveals about Satan’s origin and even more important what Satan’s ultimate strategy is with all that he is doing on Earth.
Satan was given control of the Earth when Adam sinned. Jesus won it back when He went to the Cross and died on our behalf. All who believe in Him and what He has achieved are restored back into a right relationship with our Heavenly Father.
Doug Hamp shows us that Satan maintains he has a legal right to retain control of the world God created. He knows he cannot defeat God but with Adam and Eve’s original sin Satan had got legal control of this world which Jesus did not deny when he was on earth the first time. Satan’s strategy is to do everything he can to maintain legal control of this world. He is counting on the fact that God cannot lie. Satan was given control of the Earth and he wants to maintain it. He knows he cannot undo what Jesus has achieved but he would prefer the world and all humans destroyed rather than cease fighting God.
“Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain. 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 longeruntil the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be released for a little while.” Revelation 20:1-3
THE FINAL DEFEAT OF SATAN after Jesus and the Saints rule on this earth for 1000 years
“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, and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Revelation 20:7-10
Towards the end of this address, he talks like he knows something really terrible is about to happen to the country on a mass scale. There is no doubt we live in scary times, fortunately, Bible prophecy reveals that what is happening is known to God, in fact, he is in control of all that happens in His world.
Make sure you read my previous post three days ago where Jonathan Cahn reveals the stunning reason behind Tucker Carlson’s removal that has to do with the dark principalities. Tucker Carlson was the remaining evangelical voice on the major media, Fox News in the USA. Tucker was exposing the spirits behind what is happening in the USA, a country that has cast God out of its life, and the way these demonic spirits responded so quickly using Rupert Murdoch to achieve their ends is kinda scary.

Jonathan Cahn has been called the prophetic voice of his generation and is known for unlocking the deep mysteries and revelations of God’s Word. He leads Hope of the World, a worldwide ministry of outreach of God’s Word to all nations, and His love and compassion to the world’s most needy.
The latest Mission Australia Youth Survey has revealed that the environment tops the list of concerns for young people. More than 18,000 people, aged 15 to 19, were questioned by Mission Australia for the survey.
51 percent of the young responders in the survey named the environment as one of the most important issues in Australia (up from 38 percent last year). One-quarter of those questioned were also “extremely or very concerned” about climate change.
More than one-third of young people said that equity and discrimination were an “important national issue”. Meanwhile, more than a quarter of the young people surveyed said that due to their gender, race/cultural background, or mental health, they had been unfairly treated in the past year.
Further, nearly 30 percent of people reported they had “high psychological distress”, while 23 percent said they felt lonely all or most of the time. And more than half of the responders have required support with their mental health.
On its website, Mission Australia states:
Our purpose
Inspired by Jesus Christ, Mission Australia exists to meet human needs and to spread the knowledge of the love of God.
We are delighted that over the past decade, more than 200,000 young people and more than 1,000 schools and organisations have participated in our Youth Survey. Our young people are our future leaders and it’s essential we hear them and act on what they tell us.”Sharon Callister, Mission Australia CEO
Despite Mission Australia’s stated Purpose, there was not one question in the survey about God or Jesus Christ, and yet the primary reason why these youth are in such poor mental health is they do not know the God who loves them enough to send His only Son to die for them. More than half have required support for their mental health.
Many Christian organisations including most of the denominational churches are no longer relevant and are certainly not living and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Jesus tells us that this will be the state of the church prior to His second coming. In fact, Jesus says that prior to His return, the world will be like it was in the days of Noah when God poured out His wrath for the first time on an unrepentant world.
“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. They were eating and drinking and marrying and being given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.“ Luke 16:26-27
“But understand this, that in the last days, there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. For among them are those who creep into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.” 2 Timothy 3:1-7
We need to start living eternal now knowing that Jesus is returning soon to rule and reign with the resurrected Saints on this earth for the next 1000 years. My book is available on Amazon as a paperback or ebook. I hope it will help Christians to be “last days” overcomers.
As we see the final days approaching, how do we respond? Do we get overwhelmed by the looming threats to our daily lives? Are we overcome with fear when thinking of the things that are soon to come upon this Earth? Do we look inward and despair or do we look upward to Christ with hope?
“The steps of a man are established by the LORD when he delights in his way; though he falls, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD upholds his hand.” Psalms 37:23-24
As believers, we have confidence knowing that our steps are guided by the one who purchased us at Calvary. We have the certainty that our good Shepherd will lead us through the most difficult of times. Why? Because He said He would.
“And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20
We have the assurance that Christ will be with us until the very end. Though many will fall away and betray one another, we can always rely on Christ to remain with us – His sons and daughters.
“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
If you doubt the Lord’s provision, let me remind you of the one who led His people out of Egypt and fed them with manna for 40 years in the wilderness. How about the one who fed the 5,000 with just five loaves and two fish?
The one who did these things is also the one who says, “I am with YOU always.” We have no reason to fear the coming days. For if we delight in the Lord and His ways…He will guide our steps.
Pray that we may serve Him well until the very end Maranatha!
Right now, farmers across the world can’t get enough fertilizer for their crops…
According to Bloomberg:
“Expensive fertilizers are just one of many factors that have driven food prices to a record. In response, rice farmers across Asia are scaling back usage of the nutrients, threatening harvests of a staple that feeds half the world. The repercussions could be huge: The International Rice Research Institute predicts that yields could drop 10% in the next season, causing a loss of 36 million tons of rice, or the equivalent of feeding 500 million people.”
In the Olivet Discourse Jesus gave us many signs that would precede His second coming and famines were a significant sign mentioned in the three gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
“For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines. These are but the beginning of the birth pains.” Mark 13:8 & Matthew 24:7
“Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. But before all this, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you,” Luke 21:10-12
Famine knocking at the door of 41 million worldwide, World Food Programme (WFP) warns
WFP said 584,000 people are already experiencing famine-like conditions in Ethiopia, Madagascar, South Sudan and Yemen.
Nigeria and Burkina Faso are also of particular concern as they have pockets where famine-like conditions are present.
“In Somalia in 2011, 260,000 people died of hunger – and by the time the famine was actually declared – half of that number had already died,” Mr. Beasley of WFP recalled. “We can’t debate the numbers to death when people need our help now.”
Yemen, South Sudan and northern Nigeria top the list of the 20 countries, and are facing catastrophic levels of acute hunger. Some families in areas in South Sudan and Yemen are already experiencing starvation and death, or are at risk of starvation.
While most of the affected countries are in Africa, the report said hunger is set to rise steeply in most regions of the world.
Aaron Edwards, a 37-year-old Christian theology lecturer at the Methodist-run Cliff College in England has been dismissed after tweeting that “homosexuality is invading the church. The institution, which touts itself as a global center for evangelism, dismissed the father of five for misconduct last week, deeming his tweet had brought the institution “into disrepute.”
This is a ‘Gospel issue,’ by the way. If sin is no longer sin, we no longer need a Saviour.
United Kingdom MPs voted 299-116 to continue criminalizing even silent prayer in the vicinity of Abortion Clinics. A lawyer for the U.K.’s Alliance Defending Freedom stated: “Today’s vote marks a watershed moment for fundamental rights and freedoms in our country. Parliament had an opportunity to reject the criminalization of free thought, which is an absolute right, and embrace individual liberty for all. Instead, Parliament chose to endorse censorship and criminalize peaceful activities such as silent prayer and consensual conversation.
Washington Elementary School District, a public school district in Arizona, recently severed ties with Arizona Christian University over the university’s biblical views on marriage. The district, which had long partnered with ACU, decided to ban student teachers from the classroom. “The most alarming or shocking part of this meeting was that, despite the recommendation of the staff of the district who are the on-the-ground players in this, the LGBT agenda-driven board decided that it was just not safe,” Christian Post author Leonardo Blair explained. These student teachers have been in the classroom for 11 years without incident. And yet the Board decided that they just could not trust the student teachers not to be biased when they haven’t had any sort of incident in the classroom before.
Charlie Kirk is the Founder and President of Turning Point USA, a national student movement dedicated to identifying, organizing, and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government. In anticipation of Charlie Kirk’s speaking engagement at the University of California, Davis, Chancellor Gary S. May released a remarkable video, expressing the hope that no one would show up for the event. Yes, he said, “we can work together to neutralize and negate their influence” — and we do this in the name of free speech. Talk about doublespeak! Chancellor May made clear that he personally considered Kirk’s views to be “loathsome and hurtful.” And he referred to Kirk as “a well-known proponent of misinformation and hate and who has advocated for violence against transgender individuals.” This last claim cannot be substantiated and is in fact a lie.
These are just four incidents reported today that I have seen. Persecution of Christians is now becoming commonplace. Jesus told us that this would be the case prior to His return to set up his Millennial Kingdom. Jesus and the resurrected Saints will reign on this earth for 1000 years prior to the second resurrection, the White Throne judgement, and finally a new heaven and new earth where only the righteous dwell.
“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.” Matthew 24:9-13
“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
