THE GREAT TRIBULATION - THE THIRD BEAST

    When speaking about the Great Tribulation many things come to mind. Lots of people think they know everything there is to know already. But they do not know he is one out of three beasts. 'Yes, I hear about the anti-Christ', they say. The dragon is different to the other two beasts. He accuses the church day and night in front of God.

  

He is the devil or satan and actively seeks to separate us from God. He is before the anti-Christ and the prophet. He imbues the two other beasts with supernatural power. He is a deceiver and allows the two beasts to provide a front for what he wants to achieve. He is actually the first beast but is not revealed to us in the Great Tribulation until half way through.

The separation of roles will reflect the Trinity of Father, Son and The Holy Spirit. He is the old dragon who will be portrayed with ancient wisdom imitating God The Father. He is a third beast found in the Book of Revelations. Many people say they will not worship the devil. Yet, they return to sin so many times. He most certainly is the 'sly old fox' in his ways. He causes man to sin over and over again.

Accepting the dragon

Seduction, mysticism, and knighthood are not strangers to this dragon. From China to Mesoamerica there have been dragon legends. Throughout time and locations they have survived in the stories that keep popping up. But the longest dragon tale (hahaha) is China's. 

There is even a folklore that is reflective of the The most auspicious of the 12 year Chinese Zodiac is the dragon year. The dragon is the icon of China. This is a very negative connotation for China in terms of branding. It has come to fuel many conspiracy theories or speculations.

The history of China dates back to the time of the Tower of Babel. Historians account for the fascination with dragons as dinosaurs. The word dinosaurs did not exist until 1841. Reverence for the dragons was not always there because they exercised dominion over them. However, the army of Alexander the Great was said to have visited a dragon in India.

Dragons were said to exist even up to the time of the 700 AD. If the behemoth with the tail like a cedar tree in Job is a dragon then they would have been on Noah's ark too. Like a sauropod dinosaur.

Sauropod Dinosaur

There is even a plumed snake like dragon god Quetzalcoatl in South American culture. Modern versions of these tales are told through box office movies e.g. How to Train Your Dragon, one of my personal favourites. We are already familiar with the character of the dragon. 

It will be easy to accept him being around. Most especially as his character is now to be of wisdom and rarity with age. He has built trust and a means to reach out to all our young generations. Do you remember the children's show built around a particular pink dragon?

Two denials

I confess I was not sure at exactly what point he is thrown out of heaven. In Revelations it says that he was kicked out half-way through the treaty. At first I found it hard to accept this literally. However by seeking God in prayer and studying the word, I realise that it makes a lot of sense based on the time lines given in Revelations. 

Revelations 12:7, 'Then a war broke out in heaven...' This is what God showed me. 'Then' means it is dependent on something else happening. He was denied the persecution of the Jews who fled away from the anti-Christ. From Job, we know that he has access to heaven but in Revelations 12 he is defeated and denied access. He is denied twice.

God's harvest

I like this Revelations 12 chapter because the angels were fed up of him. They love God so much that they decided it was time for him to stop making accusations in heaven day and night before God. He did this even though he knew the people of God overcame him with their testimony and the Blood of the Lamb. 

He goes before the judge to make a case that is flawed. He was trying to reap a harvest and steal from God, a rightful harvest. Isn't that the height of boldness and thievery? When we look at Afghanistan it is clear that the harvest is not for the Taliban. When you pray for this nation, stand on this in your prayer. The harvest belongs to Jesus, Revelations 14:15;

And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, “Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.”

They defied the Law of Power which is a new order based on a show of force. But the win is given by default. The people stopped fighting when they saw they were betrayed by Joe Biden and their own President. Taliban defies God's order through deceit. It was not a battle that was won it was manipulation and deceit. They defied God's order and the new order. However the spirit of the devil is deceit. There is deceit in everything he does.

When we pray we have to get legal and specific implementing the order of God and standing on faith that God will honour it. You are the lawyer. You are not the accuser except against the devil. But this can only be done under God's banner, Jehovah Nissi. Then you use your weapons: the blood of Jesus, the word of God, the anointing oil. Look that devil in the eye while you use your weapons and take charge of your situation or any situation.

The restrainer

What I understand by the denials is that God in His infinite mercy creates ways to restrain the devil. The church as the restrainer is no longer there on earth. God takes charge over His people and claims His harvest. Even now Lord, we claim a harvest for you. God protects His people.  

The context in this is that the Great Tribulation is supposed to be for the Jews to pay a penalty. Once they repent of the sin then God can activate mercy and act on their behalf. That means that we can do the same if we happen to be in the Great Tribulation. However, we will either be killed or we will have to somehow survive the seven years. Build your relationship with God so He will act on your behalf.

God is merciful

In Isaiah 27:1, satan is punished. He is not cast into the lake of fire immediately. Had he been, all of his followers will have to be judged with him. In Revelations, during the Great Tribulation, he is bound up with chains and then he is loosed after 1,000 years. 

This is to allow the people to have a period to see everything in the open and make a final decision. God could have cast him into the lake of fire at the Second Coming of Christ. But He did not because he wanted the people to have more chance to work out the evil seed in their heart.

Not learning his lesson the devil will gather millions of people from all over the world and encircle the camp of the saints. This will provoke God to send fire from heaven to consume them.

God deals with the demons on the Day of The Lord, 2 Thessalonians 5:2.

It is the people who will follow the devil despite having time and opportunity to experience the beauty and love they have in Christ. 

There are two wars during the Great Tribulation. The battle of Armageddon in Revelations 16:16 and the Apocalyptic war in Revelations 20:18, this is when Gog and Magog is mentioned. The pre-Tribulation war of Ezekiel 38 is not part of the seven year period and indicated differently as Gog from Magog. 

All three wars are very different. All three will be a trigger for a different purpose. But all will be about bringing the people back to God. Thank you our Father in Heaven for your everlasting mercy. 

I pray you have understanding and The Holy Spirit is not quenched in your life in Jesus name.

 Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

THE GREAT TRIBULATION - THE SECOND BEAST

    The second beast will market and campaign for the first beast. His strategy will be based on the anti-Christ being seen as the man of solutions for the problems of the world. Here I have to pause for a chuckle. There are many people who do not believe in God. But they blame God for everything and will even sign insurance contracts that state, ‘acts of God’. What do you think about that? 

Floods in Belgium, Netherlands and Germany,  July 2021

Since Jesus, 2,000 years ago much has been unfolding and revelations are coming through relationship with God to the Gentiles. As with the prophets of old like Jeremiah and Daniel. God is still who He is. He has not changed. He is still giving revelations of what is ahead. He is still speaking to His children. This second beast is the false prophet.

Much has been fulfilled and there is an urgency in the speed at which the prophecies are being fulfilled. For different reasons modern man has not understood or denies that they are part of the fulfilment of the end of times prophecies already. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy, Revelations 19:10b. With this spirit I am now writing on the second and third beasts.  

Religion has been and continues to be the reason for many wars and death. It will play a key role in setting up the new order. In this post-American world there will be a religion for all. The second beast will be known as a prophet. This will be a mimicry of the prophets of God.

The imitation of the prophet

God used judges whom He would ordain to rule and lead the people of Israel. However, the people wanted a king. This can be seen from the time of Gideon. The role of the judge included waging war and leading, influencing the people to return to God, Hebrews 11:32-34. 

The people wanted a king like the other nations. Prophet Samuel anointed Saul to be king. This was the first King of Israel as a confederacy. It is a confederate that the new order will seek to create. One united Kingdom under the anti-Christ. 

His job description will be to:

• support and market the first beast as a saviour of the world. At first he will not say it openly, but he will create the brand personality of a saviour. 
• in giving support he will cleanse the world of any resistance to the first beast. This will be under a disguise of a cause, movement or protection against a threat.
• he will distract some attention from the first beast so the first beast will be able to achieve what he needs to, without hindrance.

God did and continues to maintain this role of the prophet to now. It is the church who do not accept the prophets to lead us. However, Jesus is anointed as High Priest after the order of Melchizedek. As followers we too have this anointing. 

I will not get into much more on this point except to say that the relationship between the three beasts are in imitation to how the dynamics work between the trinity and that of the trinity with us. What is important is to understand that it will be one Kingdom to be established by the three beasts.

Strategy of separation

The separation of roles will be seen between prophet and anti-Christ similar to how the dynamic worked between the prophet and the king of Israel. However, instead of leading the people to a right relationship with God, he will lead them to the worship of the anti-Christ. This was a type of charisma or spiritual ability. The prophet beast will have this type of power.

He will perform miracles like the first beast and speak of solutions. This will be his social proof. In the old days prophets were the voice of God. It is to divert attention strategically. People can be suspicious of the religious beast and welcome the first beast. The beasts will show the separation of the order as a balance from one to the other. 

A mockery of justice. One to serve the spiritual and one to serve the physical. But truly there is no balance. It just appears to be this way. It is to reach out to different markets. One to the practical and worldly mass of people and the other to those who want to maintain a form of godliness. 

On this point it is important to understand that while the people claiming to be Christians today have a problem with using the gifts of the Spirit, they will accept the beasts performing miracles. Every time pastors or prophets rise up among us we pull them down. 

We look for ways to disprove them and ill-speak them. We quench the work of The Holy Spirit and give the devil leeway to gain ground among us and weaken our understanding of our authority and resistance to the new order.

Candidacy and shifting power

Since this beast is for religion, the pope has been singled out by speculators or scholars for hundreds of years as this particular beast. This is based on his influence in politics and religion. However, I think the Ayatollah of Iran, Ali Khamenei might be that person. 

Power and influence has shifted. The rise of the Islamic Republic of Iran is occurring concurrently with a dying Catholic Church. Also, the beast has to look friendly and build trust. No better way than to be benevolent and to give the Jews the Temple Mount by sacrificing the Al Aqsa Mosque. This will be another strategy. 

There are similarities between historical events and what is prophesied in the Book of Revelations. It is very uncanny. The second revolt of the Jews occurred during Emperor Hadrian's reign, 132-135 CE. It was led by Shimon Bar-Kokhba. He was for some like a Messiah. The kind they always expected fierce and cunning in battle:

• That revolt lasted 3 1/2 years - 1260 days  
• It was about the religion specifically about the Temple and circumcision - The anti-Christ demands worship
• Hadrian told them they could rebuild the Temple in 118 CE but went back on his word - The anti-Christ stops the sacrifices
• 580,000 Jews were estimated to have been killed. For 6 days the bodies were left in the open and prevented from burial - They leave the two witnesses' bodies out in the open for 3 1/2 days
• The Sixth Ferrata was the legion that was called into Jerusalem - reminiscent of the mark 666
• There were 12 army legions to defeat Judea - reminder of the mark 666
• Julius Severus was brought in as one of Hadrian's best generals from Britain. He starved the Jews in their fortresses until they got so weak they could not fight - without the mark of the beast you cannot access food etc.

The tricky thing about Hadrian is that he was Pontifex Maximus. He was both king and religious leader. Besides this his body was burnt. At least that is the claim. I would like to suggest that one like Hadrian will be the prophet beast. Or that the situation would be like that during Hadrian's reign.

Manipulating religion

Despite who the beast prophet is, the idea is to create a mockery of the Temple Mount. To defile God's Temple has always been part of history. It was done before. To do this the Temple has to be built. Only Jews can do that. They will be used to accomplish this.

No one religion will be supreme. This will be a welcome relief to some people who are currently oppressed by extreme governments led by religious heads e.g. Iran. It will be short lived. But you can see why extremism exists. I say this because despite all efforts to curb it and all freedoms given to so many, it grows even in the free world. 

Protests against Iran's growing
influence in Lebanon,
August 2021

It is widely known and already proven that while education has been given to more people, extremism grows. Additionally, when everyone thought social media will give more freedom of expression, censorship increased. People will want a respite or break from the violence, death and tragedy. This is the purpose of extremism. It is already a coordinated effort. While the world is distracted by the situation in Afghanistan and the rise of the Taliban, the Iranian Supreme Leader is pushing towards 90% enrichment for a nuclear weapon. 

They will say that too many people are dying because of religion. Of course the most persecuted religion is the Christians. It's not even the Muslims or Arabs despite all the violence we see on news and social media. By killing Christians they will have a sick valid means to present an argument for one religion. 

The concept will be and actually already is promoted, as all gods are the same, just manifesting differently. To accomplish this the role of Jesus as saviour will be deleted from the Bible. The identification of the chosen people being the Jews will be removed. People will be ushered into multi-religious facilities even like the one in Dubai.

The new Other

The new other will be those who do not follow the new order and the believers of Jesus. When a decision is made to put the 666 mark the individual becomes one of the chosen of the new order. This way the chosen will no longer be the Jews. This is an important issue in the Middle East. Leaders to this day still speak of it in national speeches. This will occur after:

• 1260 days of the treaty
• the devil looses access to heaven
• the devil looses war in heaven
• angels following the devil is kicked out with the devil

Resistance will be in this group, the other, and they will be slaughtered and persecuted to stop any form of free thinking. Freedom will be perceived as the right to do wrong and the right to call the wrong the alternative truth. Actually it already is that way. Do you understand that the atmosphere of evil increases during the 7 years?

At first anyone not following the new order system will be seen as a hindrance. They will be wiped out. After the first 1259 days of the treaty, the lies will be fully exposed. Nothing will be as it seems. I take every opportunity to tell you be ready to disappear before this. 

When the first beast demands the identification mark on your hand or forehead run in a different direction from him. Don't wait. A lot of people will be deluded. You will doubt your own sanity. 

This is what the Lord GOD says: On that day, thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will devise an evil plan. Ezekiel 38:10

Let me put this verse in context. Ezekiel 38 is the point we are in history and prophecy. This is stated in this chapter. It comes when there are many speculations and conspiracy theories about mind control and broadband communication technologies being used by huge corporations globally. I am paying attention. Perhaps you should too.

Comments of hate and disgust are being openly expressed and allowed on social media. People are actually posting on social media that facilities and necessities should be withheld from the un-vax'ed. As Christians we should be verbally making declarations of the word of God against this. 

With the dress rehearsal of the new system for the mark, a new ‘other’ is being created with the un-vax’ed. They are being identified and censored. They are being excluded out of business, schools and churches.  

Lawsuits are being fought in the USA for these reasons. The Children's Health Defense of Canada is an example of a group putting together a legal case for students being denied education in the colleges.

Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. Revelations 14:12

Even during the Great Tribulation God is mindful of what the saints are going through. Can you imagine what the 144,000 witnesses will have to face while they walk the earth? When they see the torment and hardship they will feel that burden too. God who sees everything will have this burden. God's mercy is present always in different ways.  

 

Weak leadership

Weak leadership is already being seen. It will deny you the support you need, in order to be as an individual. You will feel pressured into joining to survive. The mental strength of a person will determine survival. Do you see that peer pressure on any particular issue today as a dress rehearsal?

In order for Ezekiel's pre-Tribulation war to occur there has to be a weak Israel and a weak USA. Russia has already announced that they do not have a relationship with Israel's new government. They have taken sides against Israel and have acted against Israel. Under the previous Prime Minister, this did not happen. Iran has been increasingly defiant of USA because it sees USA as weak. 

America is seen as weak

The church is weak. Already the church is emptying of Jesus. There are a lot of false teachers and false teachings taking over. The church is divided by issues of distractions e.g. the current global health situation, politics, and replacement theology. The church has forgotten to resist the devil. A falling away, is occurring and converts are decreasing. Some countries outlaw conversion and prospecting e.g. China

The order of tolerance

A further weakening is in the tolerance being promoted. Religious tolerance is different to religious acceptance. This is a concept that has ancient roots. It is well known that Cyrus the Great of Persia which included Iran (500s BCE) was known for this. Rome followed a similar pattern. 

Worship of other gods could be done but only with the assimilation of their gods and practises. This is why Israel continued to revolt against Rome. Assimilation could not be achieved by Rome. I am awe struck at Father God that He is warning us that this is going to be repeated. This is why the past has been dress rehearsals for the future. Also, the reason why a plan of salvation was put into action from the time of Eve and Adam sinning.  

Communication during the Great Tribulation

Command over the internet and media and social media platforms will be given to this beast. Can you believe the internet is in the Bible?

He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. Revelations 13:15

Let us imagine that I am wrong. Maybe it is the giant that is traveling as a mall to different countries that will speak. Or, it could be a carved sculpture. The point is that people are already accustomed to seeing images speak and the prophet beast will be able to use supernatural powers. Despite having internet today, during the Great Tribulation there will be so much destruction that the internet will be affected. 

We should think about the growing supernatural power that will cause the image to speak. By keeping Jesus at your centre you have to understand how to tap into God's supernatural power.  Activate your authority with understanding that you are above all that the enemy does:

far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. Ephesians 1:21

When Jesus comes the second time which is at the end of the seven year period this beast is immediately cast into the lake of fire. He is not even a bother for Jesus to contend with. It is the humans who allow this beast to gain power by not exercising their own spiritual power. They are too distracting fight the church and God and each other.

I pray you have wisdom and The Holy Spirit is your teacher in Jesus name. I pray for the salvation of your family in Jesus name.

 Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

THE NEW ORDER PART 2 AND THE GREAT TRIBULATION

    From the very beginning God set up specific orders in the spiritual and natural realms. In the days of the Nephilim one of those orders were broken. However it goes further than this. In the garden of Eden the devil tempted Eve to break that order set by God when he told her to eat the fruit to be like God. 

Garden of Eden by Wallpaperflare.

Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” Genesis 3:4-5 

The new order has been in the making from the beginning and it has been like a jihad, a constant effort. It has taken different forms but it is all about changing the order or the way we are supposed to live. The order in which God runs His kingdom on earth. God's governance over His people.  

It sets up the earth to be run. But for mankind His laws are used to set up the order of how he wants us to manage our relationship with Him and each other. The New World Order is about contradicting this and changing God's role as our God in Heaven. The new order is already in place. It is growing in strength and influence. 

Already governments are speaking of it openly and world events are happening making space for its official establishment. At this point in history, the order as a group of people or bodies of influencers, wealth, and leaders, has been in place but not as an official new order. 

They have manipulated and worked under the names of other world bodies, government offices and companies. They create panic and chaos while appearing as rational, and benevolent or philanthropical. It is at this point that we are being pushed into a situation to accept the new order. 

They want us to want it. We are seduced into needing it. There are many scholars throughout the ages who have criticised the Catholic Church for being an instrument of the new order. The papacy has declared itself to represent Christians and have made integral changes to the message of Christ in their teachings. 

To be clear, it is not a new order, it has been behind the scenes for some time. It is now coming into the open conversation and decision making processes. Nations are vying and competing for position of supremacy within the new order, 'of the future'. It is referred to as the Post-American World or Post-American Order. This is because the USA is no longer seen as a super-power but as a paper tiger.

SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL

When God created the universe He set in motion everything within the universe that is seen and unseen. How every aspect of the universe relates to each other and to Him. It is in heaven then it is set on earth. The spiritual affecting the physical.

Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:10

Witches and warlocks, shamans and sorcerers understand this and are able to use this understanding to do supernatural things. The world's new order is to use the physical world to defy the spiritual. This is sin. The devil wants to use mankind to change the order. 

The fallen angels indicate that the devil already caused defiance in the heavenly. He has moved his plot against God to the earthly realm because we are made in the image and likeness of God. It is not about humans having rights and freedoms for him, it is about destroying the earthly kingdom and worshippers of the Son of God, Jesus. The devil is a bit jealous of Jesus I think.

The devil knows that he has limits. He knows that he cannot change the order that God sets up to run all of His domains and Kingdom. His aim is to separate man from God and destroy life. He knows that hell was not made for mankind and that God loves mankind. 

In order to spite God he is trying to cause pain, misery, defiance to God on the earth to force God to condemn his created beings to hell, to hurt God. When Adam and Eve ate that fruit the sin was so impacting that thousands of years later we are being affected by it. Adam being the first Adam had dominion on the earth. Physical death and spiritual death came to us.

To counter the sin committed by Adam and Eve, God had to send His Son Jesus, the second Adam to bring a new way or a new order. This is the New Testament which sets the standards for us to live by, from the birth of Christ to now until the end of time. The second Adam gave eternal life as a gift. This way we have a chance at life in the spiritual.

Now I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 1 Corinthians 15:50

Even in this verse the apostle makes a declaration. The wrong order can be made right through Jesus. Yet still, Jesus teaches us that the order cannot be changed until it is fulfilled. 

Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. For I tell you truly, until heaven and earth pass away, not a single jot, not a stroke of a pen, will disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Matthew 5:17-18

Jesus is the fulfilment of many prophecies as He reminded the Rabbinical Jews many times. He was then in a position to bring the new declarations and decrees on the earth. Jesus as God on earth not only established ordinances He made it known to all. John's writing of the prophecies relevant to the future shows the limits of the devil. Although Jesus spoke of end of times in Matthew 24, the devil still did not quite understand it. 

He did not know what was going to come, John the Revelator did. John had Jesus's testimony in his life and had revelations to operate as a prophet. Similarly the two witnesses of the The Great Tribulation, Revelations 19:10.

And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. Matthew 11:12

John the Baptist was a voice crying out in the wilderness. He was the trumpet making space in the world and the atmosphere for the message of Christ. Christians are one of the two trumpets of God. The trumpets announce and when blown, they make space in the atmosphere for the decree or warning that is being announced.

The Jews as the first trumpet did the same thing. They did not have Jesus, they had the laws to repeat and speak into the world and publish. They demonstrated the relationship they had with God by keeping His laws. By breaking the laws they sin. Sin separates man from God. 

Jesus comes on earth to establish a way for man to reconcile with God. The second trumpet is a continuation of the first trumpet. Another reason why the devil distracts us and deceives us. He does not want us to know that we have authority in Christ to make declarations and decrees. But in all things God must be at the centre. It is God's will be done. 

Through Jesus's Lordship over his life, John wrote the Book of Revelations. It is the only prophetic book of the New Testament. Prior to this the devil did not  understood the end of time was the end of him. As a prophet, declarations would be published or made known to man. This is what the prophets of old did and what John was doing.

Comparing John to Daniel another great prophet. Daniel received the prophetic dreams from God. I understand Daniel's dilemma. I often dream prophetic and it took me years in seeking God to finally understand the dreams. In Daniel 9, the angel had to bring the revelation and Daniel had to publish it. John had access to revelation in heaven.

Daniel had the spirit of prophecy and was given the privilege of the revelation. God knew him due to relationship with him. The decrees brought to Daniel was in response to what the Jews did or did not do. It was not a new order. The Great Tribulation was caused by their ignorance and disobedience. God saw this and wanted to make a way for people to get out of the trap that was set since the time of Adam and Eve.

God would always say why a judgement is passed. The principle of how the spiritual and physical realms operate indicate that the decrees have to be made on the earth and published to warn or inform everyone. But they are not new orders they are the fulfilment of the previous decrees made. As a just judge God ensures that we are told of the decrees, and of the consequences. But in His mercy He sends us advance notice and gives us time. 

In sending us notice through the prophets who are able to tap into the relationship with God and access the spiritual, we have revelations and understandings. God is bending backwards to help us find our way to Him. Jesus shows us the way. The prophets like Daniel and John the Revelator are classic examples of this.  

Even in that parallel dimension of time when John the Revelator is in the future, the devil is kicked out. He was denied access to the future that John was privy to. He had to wait for John to publish it to know it. Yet, he pursued after John knowing that once it is published it is set and decreed on the earth. 

It was decreed in the heavenly and spiritual realm. The trumpets were used to make the decrees in the heavenly for the judgements to fall on the earth. See Revelations 8-10. Only when the seals are broken in the future do we know what will happen. 

It will be done in the future but John was used as a conduit to announce it in his time and set it for the the future for that time. Wow! This is why John was forbidden to write what the seven trumpets said in Revelations 10:3-4.

This is why the disciples died horrible deaths, the devil wanted to stop the decrees. Quench the authority given to us by stopping them. God is at the centre in the relationship between the spiritual and the physical. In the fulfilment of all prophecies we can see God's ultimate plan. His true heart is shown. 

God really does not want to be separate from us. In the very end, there is no sea and no division between the heavens and the earth. 

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God. Revelations 21:3

Through lies and deceptions the devil drives a wedge between us and God. He knows that God's will is fulfilled and how it all unfolds now. Don't be like Eve thinking that you can be like God and change the order. Even if you change the order using man's ways, God's word is already set to be fulfilled. In the very last verse in the Bible it says:

But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.: Revelations 21:27

You are not God to write your name in the Book of Life. No one but God Himself is capable of opening or writing in this book. With this final verse God continues to condemn lying and deception. Don't be fooled into thinking there are reasons to lie and deceive.   

I pray God blesses you with revelation and that your relationship with Him grows from strength to strength. I pray you understand and enjoy the authority you have in Christ. There is so much to pray about. 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

THE GREAT TRIBULATION - THE NEW ORDER

Afghanistan I am so sorry. You were sold and you were part of the dress rehearsal. In this series of blogs I am reviewing the end of time prophesies in the Book of Revelations and how it applies to today. We are all affected in one way or the other. The anti-Christ or first beast will be a world leader on the strength of this new order. His leadership will be welcomed.  

Afghanistan's Kabul airport where interpreters and those fleeing out of the country await flights.

The new order is the opposition to Jesus being ‘the way, the truth and the life.’ The Jesus way is the way to The Father in heaven. Ok I have to say it, Our Father, Elohim, Adonai, Ancient of Days, Creator of Heaven and Earth, Everlasting and Everlasting One! The true and only way is by Jesus as saviour who paid the ultimate price for our sins. The life is the gift of eternal life with God. 

The anti-Christ will glorify evil by calling evil good and good evil. This will be done through his new order. He will eventually glorify himself and this will be through the mark of the beast. He appears humble but is not. Through his deceptions he will convince the world that he has a way and that he can give them what they want. 

While I was in the United Kingdom I realised that a lot of charity was being done. I was happy to see the love for humanity. But that was short lived when someone told me that they have to do acts of kindness because God is not real and not capable of taking care of people. This is how easy it will be to convince people that this man can change the world. 

Governments in the USA, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, etc., are showing a lack of leadership. The situation around the globe is pushing towards a new order for a new world of change, Revelations 13:16-17. It will be in the form of a global government. Authority will be given over to the new leaders under this body. 

And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. Revelations 13:7 

The truth will be a lie. Satan the deceiver is the father of the first beast the anti-Christ. His deceptions already exist. They will be promoted as propaganda and blatantly spread as facts and truth. Eventually during the Great Tribulation, the truth will be exposed. 

There are many secret societies and bodies globally. But in this time the new order is openly spoken of. Additionally, the world events occurring seem to be only explained by a new way taking over. This new order can be proven in several ways: 

Global government. The new order will operate as a global government. This was already tested through international bodies and multi national corporations. The lines of international trade and policy are already laid down. The World Health Organisation operates as a global government. This was tested in 2020. 

Change of leadership. Resistance to the new way has been dealt with economically and by removing the leaders. The new mantra throughout the world starting from Barak Obama is ‘change’. Strong leaders are removed by strange deaths or illegally manipulating the political systems, for weak leaders who will follow the new order. Benjamin Netanyahu was removed and even Russia says they miss him. The enemies of Israel see the new government as weak. The new Prime Minister was put in place without a majority vote by the people. Tanzania has new leadership too. 

Germany. While we are called conspiracy theorists and ridiculed there is a conversation that is global and behind the closed doors about the new order. It is now coming out more openly. In a farewell ceremony for the German frigate, ‘Bayern’, as it launched for the South China sea, Foreign Minister Heiko Mas added that Germany must demonstrate a presence in the Indo-Pacific region as it is one of the regions where "the world order of the future will be determined". "We want to be involved and take responsibility for the management of an international order based on laws”. 

In case you did not quite catch it, the statement is supported by the German Defense Minister Angert Kramp-Kernbauer, "For our partners in the Indo - Pacific region, the reality is that the sea lanes are no longer open and secure and claims to land ownership are implemented by the Law of Power." 

China. China official newspaper reports a statement made, ‘Taiwan look at what is happening in Kabul, you are next’. China knows it has to prove land ownership by force according to the Law of Power. When Germany and the United Kingdom needed to show that they are a force of strength they had to sail a warship near China. Why? Why at this time? 

Afghanistan. The Taliban has taken over Afghanistan. The new order includes the Taliban. For more than ten years this revolt has been ongoing. NATO forces joined in and yet still the rebellion could not be put down. A rebellion that started with students. Who funded them? Who trained them and managed them? 

In 2021 they held 80% of the country. The final 20% stronghold by the Afghanistan government capitulated when the Americans left ammunitions as they snuck out of the country. Many interpreters were beheaded publicly. The new government under Taliban rule has already scrubbed out the faces of women from the walls and ordered the burka to be used. Girls as young as 12 years old are being forced into marriage. Extremism has won.

For all the international bodies that exist extremism won. For all the years they helped the Afghanis to defend themselves, it took just this extra for the Taliban to get the final victory. They could not have done it so fast without the the American help. Over all the years NATO sent in forces, had they made a greater effort they could have put down that rebellion. The Taliban needed the Americans to help them with the final victory. NATO needed to look like they were helping. NATO it seems was there to ensure it happened at the right point in time. They were a deterring factor only. 

The timing. There are many things happening simultaneously that could not have been known when John of Patmos wrote the Book of Revelations. The convergence of prophesies coming true as fast as they have been. The nations spoken of in Ezekiel 38 existing and forming alliances as indicated. The rise of Iran with a nuclear weapon and a hardline Prime Minister. 

The timing is when Israel has a fake government. USA appears to have a fake government. It has a weak leader for sure. The timing when extremism is on the rise and rights have been taken away through health concerns. Chaos is all over the world. Massive unemployment, poverty, and death globally. Fires in Greece, Italy, Turkey, Russia, Algeria simultaneously. The timing is ripe for a new order and a new leadership. 

You have to keep in mind that he is the anti to Christ. He will derive sick pleasure in seeing the people separated from God. He will satisfy that lust for flesh in pain, by killing the believers in Christ before the tribulation and the new believers of Christ during the tribulation. He will try to go after the Jews and will enjoy seeing the death of 7,000 due to the earthquake when he declares himself as God. 

MARK OF THE BEAST 

The mark of the beast is a very popular topic these days. It was about barcodes at one time. Then it became a chip inserted into the human body. Today the technology exists for this to occur. In 2019-2020 Europeans had chip parties. Families got chipped and they joked that they want to be a cyborg. 

In 2 Thessalonians 2:3, we are told there will be a falling out. This is already happening. Many people are being distracted. Many Christians are confused and backsliding. Many are choosing to keep their present comfort without sacrifice. They are enabling the same system that will be used to censor and persecute believers in the coming days. 

No trade or buying or selling can occur without the mark during the end of times. The mark becomes an identifier of the anti-Christ after the first 1260 days of the peace treaty. This is the peace treaty to end the pre-Tribulation war which will be an attack on Israel for ‘plunder’, Ezekiel 38. After 1260 days, he will put a stop to the sacrifices and say the people should worship him instead. 

At that point the people have to accept the mark that identifies them as his believers. Revelations 14:1 says that there is a mark for the 144,000 on their foreheads to identify them with God the Father. The 666 mark of the beast is a mockery of this which we know is the seal of God upon our lives. The seal indicates our life was already bought and paid for by Jesus who gives us freedom to live and enjoy it. He gives us abundant life. 

Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1

The abundant life promised by Jesus will be imitated because the anti-Christ will take care of them. He will then appear as the benevolent God to the people. It is based on material gain and comfort. At this point of the Great Tribulation further depravation of the people who do not worship him will be justified. 

They will not be part of his system. The worship is not to the system. The worship will be to the anti-Christ using the system. This makes it easier for the actual mark to be implemented during the Great Tribulation. The mark signifies you are protected by the anti-Christ. He is taking you and branding you. 

The wrath of God is directed at the wicked people on the earth. The ones who identify with the anti-Christ. I believe this is why the second half of the 7 years will be worse than the first half. 

That they might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:12 

It is probably why the believers will at that point be…’Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.’ Revelations 14:13 

The dress rehearsal is in putting the system in place and globalising it. This is where it is right now. It is disguised to break down resistance. Christians are told to resist the devil and he will flee but instead they are giving in to a global system that is part of exclusion, censorship, identification, and depravation of rights. While freedom is waved as a banner in one instance, simultaneously freedom is being pinned down by a system that denies rights to basic amenities, trade, food, education, recreation, health care, security. 

It is remarkable that almost 2,000 years ago, a man prophesied that it will be on the left hand side or on the forehead.  I can see this happening already. The tester or forerunner for this is being used globally. It is only the dress rehearsal at this time. Of course! Did you think it would come about blatantly and openly? Did you think the powers that be would openly say this is the mark of the beast? No! That will happen but in the Great Tribulation period. 

To be clear, the people who are raptured will not have this problem. In Revelations 13, two things must happen to turn the system into this mark: 

• The devil will be kicked out of heaven with his angels, this can happen anytime but is one of the indicators used 
• The sacrifices in the Temple Mount are stopped 

The younger generations are being prepared to accept it without resistance. It is being legalised by using an agenda that appears to be in the best interest of the people. Those participating are enablers while the resisting people are being censored for when the Great Tribulation starts. They will persecute them then. 

The dependence on the internet to stay connected is a driver for the new order and new global system. The new blockchain technology fits in neatly with digital identity. The mark of the beast is needed to keep track of the people. God never wanted the people to be numbered. God is all knowing and all present. The mark is needed by the devil to keep track of everyone. 

I pray you are saved in Jesus name. I pull down every demonic stronghold in your life keeping you from God in Jesus name. 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

THE GREAT TRIBULATION - FIRST BEAST

    Throughout history there was a dress rehearsal for those who will be key to this period. This includes the anti-Christ, who is the first beast. In the early days of my Christianity, I heard a lot about the anti-Christ. It was as popular as the gifts of the Spirit. But it seemed to be a conversation for a time that was far away. He will be supported by the second beast openly.

Today I think it is for this time. More than one beast is mentioned in the Book of Revelations and in Daniel. It is important to know their roles. In this current period which is pre-tribulation, we are experiencing troubles and tribulation yet still, it will not compare to that of the Great Tribulation. There are lots of secrets about the Great Tribulation that we cannot understand but we can work with what we are told to have an idea of what will happen.

 

We can match scripture with current events. Many things are falling in line with the prophesies in both the Old Testament and New Testament. This is why it is a dress rehearsal. It does not just happen, it is pre-planned and launched in stages. It is like Yasser Arafat’s Strategy of Stages. During a dress rehearsal much is accomplished: 

• The devil gets to create more chaos that will push us into wanting what is coming. Every leader that falls or causes chaos adds to world chaos. 
• The devil gets to see what humans will accept and how far he can push us to break. 
• The devil gets to influence others to turn away from God. 
• The devil gets to see what he has to work on to be more successful the next time. 

Here I will explain who the first beast is. 

WHO IS THE FIRST BEAST? 

We are told the first beast is not the devil. He is the abomination of desolation in the books of Daniel 7-9 and Matthew 24. Also, the son of perdition. As a son he follows satan. There is a lot of parallelism between Jesus the Christ and the first beast. He is the son of satan in opposition to Jesus as the Son of God. 

He is a puppet and obedient to the devil who is satan, Revelations 13:1-2. This is why he is called the son of satan. Jesus is of no reputation, was a servant, obedient to God The Father, and humble, Philippians 2:7-10. Jesus glorified The Father in Heaven, the anti-Christ will glorify evil by calling evil good and good evil. He will eventually glorify himself. 

He will use a new order and an identifying mark to protect and own his people or worshippers. When the 144,000 Jews are selected they are given a mark on the forehead. The anti-Christ will mimic this. His imitation of Jesus has led some people to suggest he may even be a person who appears to be born of a virgin who will actually be a whore. 

Most people are intrigued by his identity. His name is known by the number 666. Speculation is based on the profiling of an individual using the clues we are given. The suggestions made on the type of person he is can be to the point of ridiculous. I apologise in advance that such nonsensical ideas are being discussed. However, to bring some sanity to the issue I have to. 

At first the anti-Christ was said to be outside of the church and therefore a Jew. The basis of this supposition is anti-semitic and should not be a consideration. I dismiss it completely. At no time in the scripture does it indicate a Jewish anti-Christ. In fact the likeness of the anti-Christ and the dress rehearsals were all non-Jews. 

When Jesus accuses the Jews for being deceitful, in the translation it is the Jewish leadership. The fact that they are able to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem as part to the peace treaty can be because they need to be appeased for a wrong that was done. 

To accept such a thing is to condemn Christians who are also victims of the same persecution. Christians are Messianic Jews. A Christian is a follower of Christ and cannot be an anti-Christ. It is not possible. A fake Christian can be an anti-Christ. Similarly Jesus was a Jew and an anti-Christ cannot be a Jew following the same laws and teachings that Jesus did. A fake Jew can be him. It literally makes no sense. However, the characterisation of a tyrant from outside of the church, I can accept. 

The suggestion that came around the 1400s favours a deceiver within the church. I am using the church to include the Catholic Church in a loose manner. John Wycliffe 1329-1384 and Martin Luther 1483-1546, were both convinced that it was the pope. The first beast is not a religious person. It therefore cannot be the pope. 

There has been lots of speculation about his name. Currently there are a few very popular thoughts: 

Emmanuel Macron, is guilty by his name. Jesus’s name is Emmanuel meaning God is with us. Macron is French for mark as in mark of the beast. The cover of the Economist with Macron walking on water fuelled this speculation. 

Bill Gates is another individual with a lot of influence and power. He is very much involved in every thing global and is part of the driving force of economics, innovation, international bodies etc. 

Barack Obama is very much behind the scenes in this present US government. His policies with Iran in particular has raised many eyebrows along with his support for Hilary Clinton the abortion queen. This administration is reminiscent of the time of Jezebel. By the way, Hilary Clinton as a likely candidate has been discussed as the only female candidate.

Since he comes back to life, some think that Muhammed the prophet of Islam is a good candidate. He was from 570-632AD and was the last prophet for Islam. Curiously, Jesus was 32 years old when He died. Get it? 32AD and 632AD. People have criticised Muhammed for not being able to perform miracles but if he does resurrect he will be given power to perform miracles. This is a religion that has tried many times to claim both Jewish and Christian tradition and history. 

I want to suggest Elon Musk. He is proven to have capability in accumulating wealth. He is quite intriguing to millions of people. He is very private but has an opinion about a lot of things. This makes him an influencer. He is very smart and capable of giving the world solutions. Recently his popularity has increased. He has a drive to go into the heavens with his trip to the moon ambitions. 

He would have come back to life or survive a serious injury, Revelations 13:3. It is in imitation of Jesus dying and resurrecting. The criticism of Jesus was in the old adage, Doctor heal yourself. It was felt that if Jesus was God then He could save Himself. People will marvel at the fact that the anti-Christ will be able to resurrect, live among them, and perform miracles, Revelations 13:14. 

There is more that I can say but only so much could be said in one blog. I am only beginning to scratch the surface to be honest. In the dress rehearsal, the anti-Christ has lived among us. He has to be resurrected so we already know him or will know him. 

It is my belief that his time is coming very soon to be known. It is possible he is already here. Either as a resurrected being from the past but unknown to us or will be hurt and resurrected soon. I hope to be raptured at that time. It does not matter who he is really but what he does. This beast will be cast into the lake of fire when Jesus returns. 

WHAT KIND OF PERSON IS HE? 

He sounds and looks like a godly person but is the opposite. He is the son of satan in disguise. He will fully expose himself when he breaks the treaty within 3 years and 6 months. As a puppet he will reflect the spirit of satan the deceiver. He follows the lead of the devil. 

The devil usually does things and says things to mimic God. He puts his own spin on things to twist it to his purpose. Jesus is the lion from the tribe of Judah. The devil is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Jesus gives us peace that passes all understanding, the devil is warlike and accuses us day and night in heaven. 

Jesus was a Jew but others against Jesus say He was not. This is why the first beast is called the anti to Christ, always in opposition. Since the father is the deceiver, then the son will participate and promote the deception. 

All that we know to be true will be twisted into a full narrative. Sounds diabolical? Crazy? It has been done already. Historical facts will be erased or twisted and corrupted. Similar to what Emperor Hadrian did by replacing the names of Judea and Jerusalem out of maps and documents and replacing it with Palestine. That was a very strategic dress rehearsal. 

Most people do not know this nor do they know that even with the name of Palestine it was a Jewish nation. Even when the Palestine Brigade fought in WWI it was mostly Jews. The Palestinian Orchestra was Jewish. Yasser Arafat himself said that Palestine was a made up identity. This is not promoted. Truth is not promoted. 

It is amazing to me to read the many times that God spoke against lying. God knew the lies spread by the devil would be of tantamount proportions spanning time and space. Entire narratives are created around such lies like that of the Palestinian cause. I suspect that since it is a critically important issue, it will play a part in the Great Tribulation. 

His works come in the form of anti-Christology which is both within the church and outside. It is seen in anti-semitism and anti-zionism. It is in replacement theory and in worldly concepts that take us away from God. There are a lot of movements today that achieve this. 

He will encourage the same behaviours that were encouraged during the days of Jezebel and other leaders who led people away from God: 

• Sexual promiscuity or immorality 
• Pursuit of strange flesh e.g. chimera, beastiality, cloning 
• Death of children e.g. through sickness, perversion, and abortion 
• Spiritual manipulation 
• Worship of everything and everyone other than the true and living God 

His goal is to cause death, suffering and chaos for people who will not follow him. To achieve his goal of world domination and separation from God he will need: 

• A system that the mark of the beast will be compatible with to identify and separate his followers 
• A means to bring about peace to the world either through a form of godliness or by using a global religion. This is needed to counter the extremist religious leaders he created, to at least appear to bring peace in religious issues 
• A vehicle to bring about a new way or leadership as a solution 

False teachings were described as being anti-Christ teachings and thus, it morphed into anything in opposition to Christ or was part of the demonic ‘other’. The apostle states that an anti-Christ is anyone who denies Christ: 

Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is anti-christ, that denies the Father and the Son. 1 John 2:22 

And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 1 John 4: 3 

For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 2 John 1:7 

It is this beast that walks into the Temple in Jerusalem and stops the sacrifices to God. He seats himself and says that the worship should be to him. He declares he is God. This is in opposition to Jesus who walks into Jerusalem on a donkey and hailed as a king. He is trampling on the people of God whose bodies are the living Temple and on the Temple set up as a system for sacrifice and atonement by God. 

The anti-Christ does not walk into any other religious building or city to make this declaration. He chooses Jerusalem because he knows Jesus will be returning to Jerusalem in the Second Coming. At that point, all Jews and saints or believers in Christ should drop whatever they are doing and run away. This is when he will openly persecute Jews and Christians for who they are. The mark will no longer be for the reason it was used before. 

The scripture is very specific about this and some detail is given, Matthew 24:15-20. The reason I think the emphasis is on immediacy, is that he has already put things in place to kill the Jews and believers. This is where the mark and the new order come in. By the 3 1/2 years both will be fully in place. 

In the Old Testament you can find the personage of the anti-Christ described in the prince of Tyrus of Ezekiel 28:2, 5, 12-16. A man of economics. He will have financial influence. He will have to show that he is capable. The social proof will be his command of finance and negotiation. 

He will be a key person involved in bringing peace to the Middle East although he is called the lawless one, 2 Thessalonians 2:3. Lawlessness is all over the world and mostly disguised as freedom. With him freedoms will be given without responsibility. 

Those who want to live a life that has accountability to Jesus will be persecuted under a law. It may not be the specific wording but it will target the believers or saints of God. This means that diversity has its limits. Belonging has its limits. Inclusion is exclusion to Jesus followers. 

Now let me point out a few things that has occurred and will occur in the Great Tribulation under this puppet: 

• Christians are being beheaded by ISIS. 
• Christians and Jews were killed by the Romans and later by the Roman Catholic Church. They even hired Muslim mercenaries to do it. 
• Christians are tortured and kept down in numbers in Islamic countries. More Christians die than in any other religion in the world. 
• Mass amounts of people have been killed by world leaders. Massacres of people are usually committed by Islamic groups in Africa, and in the Middle East. It has happened in Israel by Palestinians. 
• Muslims and Arabs are mostly killed by Muslims and Arabs. 

I have many friends and loved ones who follow Islam. I did at one point too. I have to say that the dress rehearsal is pointing in one direction. The Bible says there is nothing new under the sun. The 200,000,000 army that is used to kill the Christians can be the Sunnis or it can be the Chinese army, Revelations 9:16. They will come under the leadership of the anti-Christ. But they will be under the leadership of a monster! 

I pray you can discern the truth and God reveals Jesus to you in Jesus name. I pray God keeps you safe and you can have the favour of God in your life in Jesus name. 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel
