Promise of His Coming

Posted in End Times Prophecy, Rapture, tagged , , , , on September 20, 2010|

The other half of Rapture Ready’s Nearing Midnight series this week.  Very good!

Promise of His Coming

A biblically prophetic reality that perfectly fits our present day, and that has been looked at a number of times, is the forewarning given by the apostle Peter especially to the generation alive at the end of the Church Age:

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming?” for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. (2 Pet 3:3-4)

Almost in every case of looking at this prophecy, the point has been exclusively dwelt upon that both the religious and non-religious of the world mockingly chide those of us who believe Jesus Christ will return to planet Earth. This is a prophecy that has observably come to pass in our time.

However, it is the phrase “promise of his coming” I would like to consider here, rather than the chiding sarcasm of the mockers.

Precious Metals: “The Canary In the Coal Mine”

Posted in End Times Prophecy, One World Currency, One World Government, tagged , , , , , , , , on September 20, 2010|

Good Article from Rapture Ready’s weekly Nearing Midnight section.  Follow up to my “Atlas just Shrugged” post earlier in the week.

I have also included the video link below in the article:

Precious Metals: “The Canary In the Coal Mine”

The precious metals market has been on fire. Last week, gold hit a fresh all-time high and silver reached a new two-year high. In London, spot bullion hit a nominal record of $1,286 a troy ounce. The yellow metal has risen 17 percent since January. Gold is heading for its tenth consecutive annual gain, the longest winning streak since at least 1920.

Are we seeing a shift in how Christians are perceived?

Posted in Church Falling Away, End Times Prophecy, Rapture, tagged , , , , , , on September 19, 2010|

So for some reason this headline on fox caught my eye, something just drew me to read it.  And I am glad I did, the story is very different from the headline.  And I was taken back at how it is being treated.

This exact same story could have been told a lot different and not strayed from the stated facts.  Now, I am not supporting or condemning the actions of this group, just using it as an example of how things are starting to change/transition.

Those that believe in the inerrant word of the Bible, fundamentalists, those that believe in the end times, are going to be shifted to ‘cult’ or ‘cult-like’ in the not so distant future, in fact you could argue they already are by the existence of this story.

The two areas that struck me the most were first when the article’s author stated that:

“…they were awaiting the Rapture, which some Christians believe is an event during which they will be gathered together in the air and reunited with Christ.”

Some, not most, or almost all, or fundamentalists.  Only some Christians believe.  This article really drives home a glimpse of what it may be like after the “event” that evidently only “some” Christians believe will occur.

Second, was how they described the group.

Chicas apparently had formed her own religious group, Parker said. About 12 to 15 people would gather at her home in Palmdale, a high-desert city of 139,000, and one night about a week ago, they didn’t leave until 2 a.m., said neighbor Cheri Kofahl.

“We’ve got a group here that’s practicing some orthodox and some unorthodox Christianity,” Parker said. “Obviously this falls under the unorthodox.”

Others who knew Chicas said she was devout but hardly fanatic in her religious beliefs.

So let me get this right.  We have about 12 to 15 people gathering in a woman’s home to study the bible at night and staying late occasionally.  And that is considered practicing unorthodox Christianity?

Normally that would be called a bible study in the US, or in other countries that would be called the house church.  How many disciples did Jesus have?  Twelve, and where did they meet most of the time?  Oh, in people’s houses at night over a meal.

How far have we strayed as a world?  Can you feel the shift?

Security and Defense: Terror nova

Posted in End Times Prophecy, Psalm 83 War, tagged , , on September 19, 2010|

Israel is preparing as well.  They are well aware of the alliance forming against them and the multi-front war that is looming.  The groups and countries he mentioned in the article align with the Psalm 83 map…  Prophecy is taking shape just as God said it would.  He has been 100% right to date, why should we thing that would change.

Psalm 83:3-8 “With cunning they conspire against your people; they plot against those you cherish.  4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.”  5 With one mind they plot together;  they form an alliance against you- 6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites, 7 Gebal, Ammon and Amalek, Philistia, with the people of Tyre.  8 Even Assyria has joined them to lend strength to the descendants of Lot.  Selah”

Security and Defense: Terror nova

OC Ground Forces Command Maj.-Gen. Sami Turjeman is preparing IDF for war on multiple fronts, possibility of conflict with Hizbullah, Syria.

A group of gazelles runs alongside the jeep as it hops over another mound of dirt in the northern Golan Heights. Suddenly, the Toyota Land Cruiser comes to a halt as a massive Merkava Mk 2 battle tank takes the place of the gazelles, raises its cannon and lets loose a thunder of shells at a target somewhere off in the distance.

“You have the order to fire,” the brigade commander says into the radio. A minute later, an old Syrian Soviet-made tank – left over from the Yom Kippur War – is attacked from multiple tanks and directions.

Israel to buy advanced US fighter jets

Posted in Ezekiel 38 War, Psalm 83 War, tagged , , , , , on September 17, 2010|

The key here is the “why” toward the middle of the article the question is answered.

“The warplanes would be capable of reaching Iran undetected by radar.”

This gives us insight into what the Israeli’s are thinking.  They are in this alone.  The US could use this type of plane to attack, but Israel is moving to acquire the ability themselves.

Positioning continues as prophecy looms for Psalm 83 and Ezekiel 38….

Computers set for quantum leap

Posted in End Times Prophecy, tagged , , , , , , on September 17, 2010|

This article caught my eye from an exponential growth of knowledge and technology.  Technology is exploding around us with what seem to be major leaps forward every week if not day.

In a vision, God revealed to Daniel that in “the time of the end,” travel and knowledge will increase:

“But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.” Daniel 12:4 (NLT)

According to the book of Daniel, two things will increase in “the time of the end” – travel and knowledge.

Is this the case now?

Computers set for quantum leap

A new photonic chip that works on light rather than electricity has been built by an international research team, paving the way for the production of ultra-fast quantum computers with capabilities far beyond today’s devices.

Future quantum computers will, for example, be able to pull important information out of the biggest databases almost instantaneously. As the amount of electronic data stored worldwide grows exponentially, the technology will make it easier for people to search with precision for what they want.

IDF kills Hamas military commander in West Bank

Posted in End Times Prophecy, Psalm 83 War, tagged , , , on September 17, 2010|

Escalation continues in parallel with peace talks.  These events will eventually lead to the Psalm 83 war.  The Peace talks success runs counter to the prophecy of the Psalms 83 war.  All the players are at the table and waiting….

IDF kills Hamas military commander in West Bank

IDF says strongman ran towards soldiers in threatening manner, ignored requests to stop, resulting in him being shot.

IDF soldiers killed a Hamas military commander overnight Thursday during security operations east of the West Bank city of Tulkarm, the IDF spokesperson’s Unit said in a statement on Friday morning.

The statement said that the Hamas member, Iyad Abu Shalabiya, ran towards IDF soldiers in a threatening manner, and had ignored the IDF’s requests to cease his approach, resulting in him being shot.

Miltary sources said that Shalabiya spent several years in Israeli prisons and was wanted for questioning.

Twelve other suspects were arrested during the raid

The circumstances of the incident are under investigation.

The shooting comes two days after 10 rockets and mortar shells – including two containing phosphorus – were fired into Israel from the Gaza Strip as defense officials predicted that the violence would quiet down after Succot.

Rockets and shells pounded the Eshkol region throughout the day. One of the rockets – a 122-mm. Katyusha – hit just north of Ashkelon. No injuries or damage were reported.
