Grammy Award-winning country star John Rich is unapologetically wading into the deep waters of faith, morality, and cultural decay, fueled by a concern for what he sees as a crisis of conviction within the American Church.
“We are just overrun by all this wickedness everywhere you turn,” the 50-year-old one-half of the duo Big & Rich told The Christian Post.
Listen to his new song Revelation.The King is coming back againjustas John Rich sings. The evil spoken of in Revelation is manifesting in our time and people like John Rich see it.
The recent San Francisco Pride Parade featured nude adults walking around in front of children and a “Fetish Zone” where men urinated on each other in a kiddie pool and performed other sex acts.
Do you believe a God of righteousness will allow this to continue? Thank goodness Jesus told us that this lawlessness would precede His return to deal with Satan, and his Antichrist, and restore righteousness.
Most mainstream media outlets that covered the event neglected to cover its lewder aspects, with the San Francisco Chronicle running with the headline: “SF Pride Parade draws thousands celebrating LGBTQ community: ‘We love our people'” “Pride takes over San Francisco streets with eye-catching costumes and fantastic floats,” read the headline from SFGate.
Multiple reporters on the ground over the weekend posted graphic footage on X of the annual event that receives millions in donations from corporations and civic organizations in San Francisco. The ATF and FBI also participated in the parade, according to footage obtained by TENET Media.
TENET Media field reporter Taylor Hansen interviewed multiple nude men on the street who attempted to justify their public nudity in front of children as natural and sometimes even good for them.
“None of the crybabies and parents who complain about it can ever explain exactly how a child is harmed by seeing the human body, and every study that’s been done on the subject shows that it’s not harmful. Children who grow up with it are more well-adjusted,” said one naked man who described himself as “a nudist and an artist.”
Footage taken by reporter Savanah Hernandez at the event’s Fetish Zone showed a bearded man in an inflatable kiddie pool being urinated on by a woman as others around them watched. Hernandez reported that despite the area being 18+, the attendant was not checking IDs. Footage of the same pool taken by Hansen showed a similar situation, but which also included fellatio. When Hansen approached police about the incident, they reportedly told him it was a “pick your own battles kind of day.” Other booths in the Fetish Zone reportedly featured men getting whipped and spanked, as well as other simulated sex acts.
This is clear evidence we are in the Biblical prophesied last days before Jesus returns so we need to tell our unsaved loved ones and friends that it is also the time when God pours out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet (Rev. 8:1-11:19) and Bowl (Rev. 16:1-21) judgements.
“The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up…” Revelation 8:1
“Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.” So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.” Revelation 16:1-2
How many churches are making disciples that will preach this Gospel message?
In Matt 24:44, Jesus warned Christians that they would make a huge mistake regarding the time of his return or second coming. Jesus said ALL Christians are expecting something that is biblically incorrect. Both Pre-Trib and Post-Trib will make this error. The context of Jesus’ warning tells us what it is and how dangerous it is. Watch this Nelson Walters video for the details so you don’t make this huge mistake.
“Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” Matthew 24:44
The timing of the Rapture and Jesus’ return to Earth for the battle of Armageddon is separated by one year and ten days during which time God pours out His wrath upon the unrepentant. The year before a Jubilee year is exactly one year and ten days. The year following Jesus’ return to Earth will be a Jubilee year. Also, it is interesting to note that when God poured out His wrath upon the Earth for the first time during Noah’s flood it was also for one year and ten days. “For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.” Matthew 24:37 The world will be lawless and living as if the world will go on forever, as it was in the days of Noah.
For the Saints, the last seven years before Jesus returns to Earth will be six years of work, trials, and testing followed by a Sabbath year of rest. We know this because it is at the sixth seal (Rev. 6:12) that we see the celestial signs that signal the rapture and the wrath of God. Also, it is the sixth church (Philadelphia) that is raptured and the seventh church (Laodicea) that is left behind to face the wrath of God.
God’s Jubilee: after 7 x 7=49 years the next year is a Jubilee year when debt is forgiven, land is returned to the original owners, release of slaves or indentured servants, and the land is to lie fallow. The Jubilee year is the first year of the next 49-year cycle. The Jubilee gives us a beautiful picture of what the future holds during Jesus’ coming Millennial Kingdom.
The Jubilee is also a promise to Israel that guarantees a future return to their land after the great tribulation and the wrath of God is poured out with the Trumpet and Bowl judgments.
The Jubilee is never used in Scripture in such a way that we can draw up precise eschatological timelines and charts depicting exactly when future prophetic events will take place. However, we should use the Jubilee and all the other symbols used in the Scriptures to describe the return of the Messiah (Jesus) and the Messianic age (Millennial Kingdom) to impact our hearts and lead us into a deeper adoration of Jesus and more fervent anticipation of His coming glorious Millennial Kingdom.
All around the world, support for Palestine after Hamas’s invasion of Israel is further evidence we are fast approaching the time when Jesus returns to rescue Israel at the battle of Armageddon. Hundreds of school students with the sanction of their teachers protested in Sydney, Australia in support of Palestine. Who is educating these children? Hamas is at once Palestinian, Arabic, and Islamist. In its worldview, any Palestinian state would need to embrace Islamism. The horror of Hamas’s barbaric attack on Jewish women, children, and old people in southern Israel on October 7 is not an aberration. It’s what the group actually stands for in its formal charter. Antisemitism is spiritual warfare and it is intense as we approach the Biblical prophesied end times.
End times prophecies are playing out now which tells us that we are fast approaching the end of this era when Jesus returns to rapture the Saints and after the wrath of God is poured out. usher in His Millennial Kingdom. Go to ww.millennialkingdom.net for more information.
The 70 Weeks Prophecy of Daniel is an amazing message of hope as it predicts an end to Satan’s deceptive rule and the beginning of the rule of Israel’s Messiah to put everything right. It has symbolic significance related to Israel’s Sabbath cycle of years, the Jubilee, and the historical period of exile/restoration. The 70-weeks theme weaves together a number of theological strands from the Hebrew Bible as a way of pointing us toward the age of Jubilee restoration in the future. Understanding the symbolic and literal meaning of the 70-weeks prophecy is vital. Many scholars have recognized that from a Biblical perspective, the 70 weeks must represent a period of 490 years. There is an intricate and complementary relationship between Daniel’s 70 weeks and the Sabbath cycle in ancient Israel that requires us to read Daniel 9:24 as though it depicts a specifically demarcated period of time (10 Jubilee periods = 490 years).
Jesus’ Millennial Kingdom is spoken of by all the Old Testament (O.T.) prophets. In the following Scripture, Peter tells us that all of the O.T. prophets proclaimed that God would send Jesus a second time to restore all things.
“Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus, whom heaven must receive until the time for restoring all the things about which God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets long ago... Moses and all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and those who came after him, also proclaimed these days.” Acts 3:19-20, 22, 24
The Dead Sea Scrolls predict the exact day of Jesus’ Second Coming to Earth for the Battle of Armageddon (Yom Kippur) in an ancient scroll known as the Melchizedek Pesher. Not the Rapture, because no man knows the Day or the Hour, but the day of Jesus’ Second Coming to Earth. What the scroll writers knew 2100 years ago, many Christians have missed today because the answers are based on the Old Testament. Watch this Nelson Walters YouTube video to find out the amazing answer the scroll writers knew long ago.
The timing of the Rapture occurs at the start of the last year of the 70th Week of Daniel. It occurs at the trumpet blast at the opening of the seventh seal. For raptured believers, the last year of the 70th Week of Daniel is a Sabbatical Year, and a Year of Favour (Isaiah 63:4) but for unbelievers it is a Year of Recompense (Isaiah 61:2), and a Year of Redemption (Isaiah 34:8).
“For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and my year of redemption had come.” Isaiah 63:4
“To proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour, and the day of vengeance of our God.” Isaiah 61:2
“For the Lord has a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.” Isaiah 34:8
Gog of Magog is here, on this earth. And he is ready to cause the Antichrist Covenant with the Many. Who is Gog (he’s not Putin), where is he from, and how does he play a role in the signing of the Antichrist Covenant? Watch this Nelson Walters video for details you haven’t thought about.
When does the Antichrist invade Israel? When does the Gog of Magog battle take place? We know that there will be a Gog of Magog battle at the end of the Millennium but maybe that is just a repeat of what happens at the end times prior to Jesus return. In fact, Biblical prophecies indicate the end times Gog of Magog battle begins at the midpoint and ends with the battle of Armageddon. Ancient Magog, Meshech, and Tubal are all located in Turkey so that is where the Antichrist (Little Horn of Daniel’s end times prophecies) comes from.
“I considered the horns, and behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one, before which three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots. And behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things.” Daniel 7:8
“A king of bold face, one who understands riddles, shall arise. His power shall be great—but not by his own power; and he shall cause fearful destruction and shall succeed in what he does, and destroy mighty men and the people who are the saints. By his cunning he shall make deceit prosper under his hand, and in his own mind he shall become great. Without warning he shall destroy many. And he shall even rise up against the Prince of princes, and he shall be broken—but by no human hand. The vision of the evenings and the mornings that has been told is true, but seal up the vision, for it refers to many days from now.”Daniel8:23b- 26
Make sure you also take a look at Gog of Magog’s Identity HIDDEN in the Torah!- Guest Author Travis Snow. I can also recommend Travis Snow’s book The Passover King.
Listen to Stephen Briggs of Hatikvah Films explain how Scripture provides us evidence that we are living in the day, the disciples wanted to live in when they asked Jesus about the restoration of Israel. “So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” Acts 1:6
The Bible tells us where are we in history so it is imperative we know what God is calling us to do at this amazing time – the time before Jesus’ Second Coming when He restores the Kingdom to Israel.
“Now the Scripture saw in advance that God would justify the Gentiles by faith and told the good news ahead of time to Abraham, saying, All the nations will be blessed through you. So those who have faith are blessed with Abraham, who had faith.” Galatians 3:8
“It is sad that simple historical truths are being labeled as ‘hate speech,”Eytan Meir, Im Tirtzu’s (Building the Zionist Dream) International Relations Coordinator, told United with Israel.
Israelis march and dance with flags at the entrance of Jerusalem’s Old City, June 15, 2021
Facebook removed a video posted by the Im Tirtzu Zionist movement that traces the history of Jerusalem and the Holy Land from biblical times to the present, noting that the concept of a Palestinian nation only came about in recent years.
We are living in a time where facts and truth are being sacrificed in the name of political correctness and wokeness. This is especially true regarding the Israeli-Arab conflict, and that is why videos like this are so critical.
“We will continue creating content that tells the truth about the conflict, regardless of what Facebook thinks,” Eytan Meir said. It clearly demonstrates that the Prince of this World, Satan controls Facebook.
Meir added that an English version of the video is in the works, which he hopes will be published “in the upcoming weeks.”
Im Tirzu chairman Matan Peleg said: “We invite the public to watch a video describing the rich and extensive history of the Jewish people and to judge for themselves whether the decision to remove the video was justified.”
The Bible reveals that this small nation that was miraculously reborn as a nation in 1948 exactly as prophesied will be centre stage of world events right up to the time Jesus returns to rescue it from total annihilation. The Antichrist and his false prophet send out demonic spirits to assemble kings from all over the world for the battle at that place in Hebrew called Armageddon.
“And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty... And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.” Revelation 16:13-16
“My holy name I will make known in the midst of My people Israel; and I will not let My holy name be profaned anymore. And the nations will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One of Israel. Behold, it is coming and it shall be done,” declares the LORD God. “That is the day of which I have spoken” (Ezekiel 39:8).
When will God not allow His holy name to be profaned any more in Israel? Only after Jesus returns. When will God set His “glory among the nations”? When He establishes His kingdom (Millennial Kingdom) on this earth. When will the entire house of Israel come to know the Lord and experience a great outpouring of His Spirit? Only after the Second Coming of their Messiah.
What an amazing Scripture this is. God has unfinished business with Israel. The nation He established for His purposes.All the nations will know God is the Holy One of Israel. “Behold it is coming and it shall be done.”
“And I will set My glory among the nations; and all the nations will see My judgement which I have executed and My hand which I have laid on them. And the house of Israel will know that I am the LORD their God from that day onward” (Ezekiel 39:21).
It is amazing the detail God revealed to Ezekiel about what He will do with Israel in the last days.
“I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all. Ezekiel 37:21-22
“Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore. My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And the heathen shall know that I the Lord do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.” Ezekiel 37:26-28
Look at this scripture which says unbelievers will learn why God has dealt harshly with Israel
“And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.” Ezekiel 39:23
And finally God explains He will pour out His Spirit upon the House of Israel when He has gathered them out from their enemies lands then Israel and the nations will know God is the Lord God of Israel.
“When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations; Then shall they know that I am the Lord their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there. Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, says the Lord God.” Ezekiel 39:27-29
In this post we have looked at what God revealed to Ezekiel. He revealed just as much if not more to Isaiah. It just confirms what was said to Ezekiel and the other prophets. Next post we will look at what Moses revealed to the nation about its future even before they went into the promised land.
“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 20:6
Expecting Jesus to return should make us watchful, diligent in our faith, and eager to live holy lives. We are not to get caught up in trying to guess the “day and hour” of these events. As Jesus Himself told us,
“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.” Mark 13:32-33
Even so, Jesus said that the signs of His return would give us a general idea and should cause us to remain watchful:
“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So also, when you see all these things, know that it is near — at the doors!” Matthew 24:32-33
This is not all that Jesus had to say about the timing of His return. In Luke 21:35, He warned that His return would “come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth”. In Matthew 24:43, Jesus explains that he will come “as a thief in the night”. But note that these are warnings are given to people who have made this world their home and refused a heavenly citizenship. For believers, it’s a different story entirely:
“But you brethren, are not in darkness, so that the Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.” 1 Thessalonians 5:4-6
For the same reason, God promises a special blessing for those who read, hear and keep the words of the book of Revelation. This blessing is not offered for any other book in the Bible:
“Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.” Revelation 1:3
Joseph Lamb (1925-2013) was a pastor in the Chinese underground church. He faced severe persecution from the communist authorities and spent more than twenty years in prison. But the fruit of his ministry was incredible. Along with the efforts of many like him, there are now some 80 million believers in China. Consider what Lamb said about the second coming of Christ and the impact it has had on the growth of the Chinese church:
A demolished underground church in China
In the West, the church is not talking about Jesus return, it is too concerned with survival and compromise with the world and its values.
In China, the imminent return of Christ is the message the thought-police in China most want to censor. In fact, in many areas the police are registering modems and even fax machines in order to keep the end-times message of Christ’s return from being circulated.
You see, Chinese Christians believe passionately that Christ is coming again, not just someday — but ‘in this generation.’ The dragon knows he must stop this Apostolic message of hope. If somehow he can stop these New Testament-style Bible studies, he knows he will cripple Church growth in China…to the dragon [Satan]. the ‘most dangerous’ message on the Internet is the ‘Second Advent of Christ.’
In America, where pastors have the freedom to preach anything they please, thousands of churches never hear the message of the Second Coming. Not because they are forbidden by government, but because they were tricked by seminary professors into thinking it is ‘confusing’ or ‘not relevant for today’.
Satan uses different tactics in different cultures — anything that will produce silence on the Blessed Hope of Christ’s soon return. Why? Because there is no more spiritually motivating teaching in the entire Bible.
The saints will overcome. Not a word that Jesus spoke will go unfulfilled. God will honour every promise that He made both to Israel (Jeremiah 31:35-37) and to the church (Ephesians 1:22-23). Jesus will return in glory, and He will reign victoriously on the earth. The price that He paid on the cross will be celebrated by all nations, and the redeemed will sit at His feet for eternity. Maranatha!
