BE READY! BECAUSE HERE WE GO…

Convergence is the term and the time of the day we live in!

So many things the Bible foretold so long ago are lining up like pieces on a production line. The stream is endless, but fact is real.  

For those who know and understand the signs of the times, for those who study them diligently, for those who record them, for those who share this burden they have with others, it is not frightening at all…but a joy and eagerness to look forward to!

They are prepared to meet the Lord in the air.

Matthew 24:12 says, “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.” Throughout the entire religious world, devastation is spreading. The preaching of pastors and elders has become tired and just a performance of sorts, and is failing to provide for believers.

A Clear Dividing Line has been Formed

In their struggle for status, some pastors are forming cliques and creating factions in the churches, and some have even gone into business by setting up factories to lead believers along the secular path; meanwhile, among the believers, there is a general weakness of confidence and a reluctance to part with the world, and they live in its tiresome entanglements.

Some churches look crowded and lively from the outside, but many people come to church merely to expand their network and sell products, using the church as a place of commerce.

What is the difference between a church today and the temple toward the end of the Age of Law?

In these things, the complete fulfilment of this prophecy of the Lord’s return is apparent.

The Appearance of False Christs

Matthew 24:4–5 says: “And Jesus answered and said to them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.”

From the prophecy of the Lord, we can see that when the Lord returns, false Christs will emerge and deceive people. In recent years, false Christs have appeared and deceived people in countries such as China, South Korea, and Japan. These false Christs do not possess the essence of Christ, nor can they proclaim the truth, yet they claim themselves to be Christ, and they deceive people by imitating the Lord Jesus to perform some miracles. Herein, the fulfilment of this prophecy is apparent.

The Ancient gods have Returned

Here is another sign that is so apparent.

We are going back to the way pagan societies lived and practiced. After the second WW we have regressed ever so badly.

The Book of Deuteronomy tells us an important point. A point that I think is oftentimes overlooked. Matter of fact, it’s such an unusual point that when translators come to these verses, they oftentimes translate it differently than it is in the original language, because they think, well, surely this can’t be.

And the NIV was one that I did use for many years, after I got married. But it couldn’t believe that the text was saying what I was saying, so I put it in a footnote at the bottom, what it literally was saying. Let’s note that the sons of God were responsible and had responsibility for the nations.

Deut 32: 7-9

7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.

8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

9 For the LORD’s portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

(But the Lord’s people, Jacob, is a logical heritage, so God had a chosen people. His heritage. But here tells us the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance (Heb: nahal). He allotted them territory.)

And then he divided mankind (scattered them abroad: pus), so clear, it’s the same word that’s used in the Hebrew when it talks about what took place in Genesis 11, when they created the Tower of Babel, and everyone spoke the same language, and God confused (mixed up: ḇâlal) their language and divided them, and they were forced to scatter throughout the world.

This is a reference to that and says that God sent the territory of the various nations and they were according to the number of sons of God, in other words, ‘each territory had a son of God that was supposed to have responsibility for that territory.’ Of course, the original intent was that they would help the people’s mature, made an image of God, that they would come to better know Him and to live godly and good lives.

But unfortunately, the sons of God themselves failed the Lord, and they decided they wanted to be worshipped rather than to encourage their nations to worship for one through God, and so because of that, they stand in judgement, by God.

But again, these spiritual beings were like us. They were free well beings. They could choose to live and serve God, to honour God, to do God’s will, or to do their own thing.

And as we can tell by the gods of the age of world, they rebelled against God’s purpose for them.

The ancient gods were also called demons same Deut 32…

16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.

17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

They stirred him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations (a disgusting thing, abominable in ritual sense (of unclean food, idols, mixed marriages in ethical sense (of wickedness etc, Strongs), they provoked him to anger, thinking about what had just taken place and the people of Israel.

They sacrificed to demons that were no gods. To new gods that had come recently whom their fathers had never dreaded.

Now, I think again, he’s referring here in context to the fact that after God spoke to the people Mount Sinai, the people were a little bit overwhelmed, and they said,

“We can’t stand listening to God speak to us, Moses. You go and speak to them alone. You, you find out what he wants to say, and you bring that back to us.”

So, Moses goes up on the mountain and stays a long time writing down all the laws of God. And while he was gone, the people became restless, and they went back to Idolatry, and said they made a golden (bull) calf.

It was the golden bull calf, and that’s important, because the bull was an important symbol for the ancient pagan world.

And so, they were worshipping it, dancing around this this bull calf. Again, they were, ‘worshipping the one true God’, but doing it and an idolatrous way.

And then they appear to get involved with immorality, which may sound odd to us, but pagan worship always involved immoral behaviour, but that was not all uncommon in the ancient world, the worship of ancient gods oftentimes involved getting drunk and getting involved with sexual immorality at the temple itself.

The gods at the ancient world were not teaching people to be moral and good people. They were teaching people to be rebellious and debaucherous people. And because of that, God was going to call them out and end that with judgement.

But my point here is, the Word says they are demons, and that’s unusual because this is a rare word in the Hebrew language and only used a couple of times in the entire Old Testament, but here he identifies these false gods, and we can call them demons.

In the Hebrew language, the term most closely associated with “demon” is שֵׁד (shed), which can refer to a spirit or a demon, particularly in the context of the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) and Jewish mythology. However, the concept of “shedim” (plural of shed) in Hebrew doesn’t precisely align with the modern Christian understanding of demons as evil entities under the control of the devil.

It is my prayer that my ministry would strive to be an early warning system— to cry to the watchmen on the wall. My desire is to tap into men and women who join us do just that so that remnant believers know what time it is.

The Four horsemen are upon us!

And we’re running out of time.
