Bible Prophecy Leaps into Open Display
RR ^ | 2/1/21 | Gene Lawley

Posted on 02/02/2021 9:56:12 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

It’s done! The New World Order is finally on the agenda for open action. America will now have what essentially will be a dictatorship of leftist ideology that points to a one-world government. That is the dream of many in our United States and around the world.

In the results of Congressional decisions on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, we can see that more likely than not, the “falling away” from lawfulness which 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 speaks of will follow in a short time. The appointments Biden has named for cabinet posts and administration positions tell us much of what to expect, along with his own declaration of actions to come.

A close look at the lack of moral integrity in the Democrat Party’s inner core can be found in the actions of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid during the 2012 election campaign. One day he reported that a “friend” had told him that Mitt Romney, the Republican candidate for president, “had not filed his income taxes for ten years!” He was asked to reveal the name of “his friend,” but he exclaimed, “Why ask him? Ask Mitt Romney; he is the one who did not file his tax returns!” When the truth came out that Romney, indeed, had filed his tax returns, Reid replied, with a straight face, “He didn’t win, did he?”

That old saying of dishonest achievement—“the end results justify the means”—worked without any recompense to the senator, except for the resulting blight on his own character. That “safe spot” where the senator stood to make his charge has worked well for subsequent leftist majority leaders as well for their equally untrue charges.

The position of the Democrats, as they have identified themselves in their actions during the past five years, is to reverse all of the changes the Trump administration has put in place. Those who voted for the principles of law and order, sexual morality, elimination of abortion on demand, justice for all, and obedience to the Constitution as it was written, will see the benefits of all those things reversed and lost in the Biden administration. It will be as it was, and worse, during Trump’s campaign and term of office when constant protesting and every crooked scheme imaginable was employed. Even to a second impeachment by the House, at the time of this writing, and further action expected in the Senate after Biden’s move into the oval office on January 20.

There is a loud clamor among some of the new leftist Democratic majority dictatorship to eradicate all who voted for Donald Trump. It appears that all of this will be fully accepted by the collective “deep state” who have infested the nation’s government in untold numbers.

Now, none of those deep investigations and findings of guilt in need of prosecution and punishment will be continued. Justice will not be served, even though every day when Congress and all of the various committees start their business, they all pledge allegiance to the flag and the Republic for which it stands, and they end it, in unison, “with liberty and justice for all!” I am confident that many of them—based on their word and action—have no intention of living that pledge.

Sounds like quite an indictment, doesn’t it? A pledge of allegiance to the nation and justice for all, just what must not happen if a New World Order is to be accomplished.

It would be very hard to get any law or ruling established that would require any elected or appointed person to submit to a hearing of how well they performed their oath of office after each two years is served, when the results would indicate their right to continue in office.

What does God say about these things?

I have thought much about these proverbs of Solomon and their revelation of the character of God. Think with me for a moment on these:

Proverbs 8:13 – “The fear of God is to hate evil.”

Proverbs 9:10 – “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”

Romans 3:18 – “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

Psalm 53:1 – “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’”

Why am I calling this election result such a leap forward in prophecy fulfillment? It is because it embraces all that the leftists have promoted in their love for evil. Is not Lot’s Sodom a picture of what Jesus said it would be like when the Son of Man is revealed? (Genesis 18 and Luke 17:28-30).

Now that their philosophy is in place, with a dictatorial majority, evil will increase dramatically. It is disappointing, yet as a furtherance of God’s plan to come to the end of this age, it is positive. That plan includes the allowance of increasing evil—the “falling away”—so that the Antichrist will be fully accepted when he, then, can arrive. The introduction of the Antichrist will be by the taking away of “He who restrains” or holds back evil until it is God’s Appointed Time for that to happen. The Antichrist cannot come while the “restrainer” is still in the world, and He, who lives in His believers, will take them out of the way of that sudden judgment that will occur. If the Spirit-indwelt believers in Christ are still here, the Rapture has not come, and the Antichrist has not arrived. 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 tells it plainly:

“And now you know what is restraining, that he [Antichrist] may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.”

What is that “mystery of lawlessness” mentioned there? It is that incessant, driving activity of evil that takes over society with even the slightest opportunity, even by constantly working to create those opportunities. The news media is notable at that task by not reporting the news at all or by twisting it to produce a contrary result. But note what the Restrainer is also constantly doing—holding back that expression of evil with godly forces of righteousness by the Spirit-indwelt believers in Christ. Satan and his servants can only come as “thieves who only steal, kill and destroy,” according to John 10:10a. And he can do nothing else. There is no righteousness in him—none!

(Some have claimed that this “Restrainer” cannot be the Holy Spirit who goes away, for He is of the Trinity and fills all things. But remember also that Jesus fills the hearts of all true believers, “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27), but this is because they do not “rightly divide the Word of Truth.”)

This “snatching away,” as is the Greek meaning, is the removing of the body of born-again believers from the destruction of judgment that is to come suddenly. Revelation 3:10 is an everlasting promise to the righteous:

“Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.”

Throughout the centuries, God has held back the encroaching evil with His own intervention and with the presence of Spirit-filled believers in churches where He is obeyed and served with godliness. The historical church, as seen in the world, is not the church that is the body of Christ.

When that One who restrains, that body of believers is removed, it will be as sudden as the twinkling of an eye, at the sound of a trumpet, then Jesus will come quickly to meet those believers in the clouds – first, those who have died, then, those who are alive, and receive them to Himself for all eternity.

Therefore, as these thoughts have indicated, the events happening in our time move us forward in the prophetic timeline very much closer to the end of this age. The very nature of the overall reasoning that allowed the Biden presidency to take place is glaring proof, in my opinion, that it lacks moral integrity and justice.

Primarily, it was the refusal to openly consider, at every level, the validity of any of the mountains of evidence that a massive, fraudulent effort has prevailed, for which 75 million legal voters will not likely forgive nor forget.

A question remains:

Why does God allow bad things (like the Communization of America) to happen?

We can only trust that there is some higher purpose at play here.

I do trust in God 100%, but it is sad to see the demise of my country at the hands of evil men and women.

Because Satan is the “god of this world” (temporarily).

2 Corinthians 4:3-4.

He no longer can take our eternal lives because of the Cross but he will rule until Christ returns at the end of the 7-years.

Based on your comment, I am sure you would appreciate this lecture by Jordan B. Peterson entitled, “Existentialism via Solzhenitsyn and the Gulag.” It was recorded in 2017, but is absolutely timeless.

But one thing to note is that saying “no man knows” is not the same as saying “no man will ever know”. If you take Daniel 12 to be a parallel to the timeline of Revelation, then you have Daniel in fact asking when the end will be, in verse 6: “How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?”

He receives an answer much in the form of the “simple math problem” that you posited, but is also told that “the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end” and “the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand”. To me this seems to weigh in favor of the idea that what is unknowable now may not always be unknowable, but is merely sealed by God until the time of the end approaches, and then we will be able to understand.

I am very impressed by your thinking here. It may only be because I agree.

The bible has timing mysteries.
How many born 500 years ago would connect the about 2,000 cubits Israel was to stay away from the ark, to this current 2,000 year period where Spiritual Israel was kept from the Ark?

They were born at a time when it wasnt for them to know.
500 years later, puzzle pieces/mysteries can be put together.
It wouldn’t have been for His first disciples to know times or seasons either. Just like He instructed them in Acts.

If people studied the ‘disharmony’ of the gospels,they may find timing clues/mysteries too.
In Mathew and Mark, the words No Man Knows is recorded.
Those words are not in Luke and John.

Since we were always supposed to have at least 2,000 years from His Resurrection and Return,maybe Mathew and Mark represents time or eras that will be different from the time or eras of Luke and John.

Stories or words added or missing from any of the 4 gospels, and especially in the 3 synoptic gospels,may offer clues that werent available until near the end of the about 2,000 demon possessed swine years were completed.
Maybe all the while people are trying to harmonize the gospels, the Holy Spirit has intentional disharmony.
To the scoffer,those could be ‘proof’ of uninspiration.

To a disciple, those could be pearls of great value.

That really is depressing.

My faith in Christ will get me through all this, but it is still sad to see what is happening around us, knowing that it might only get worse before it gets better.

I love my country. Wish my fellow compatriots on the Left could do so as well.

It is very difficult not to feel hate in return for the hatred that is being poured on us.

I'll put my trust in God (the Eternal one) and pray that He will eventually deliver us from impending bondage/tyranny. Maybe it is time to quietly gather strength while we wait upon the Lord.

Isaiah 40: 31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Ironically the same government that has declared multi-level marketing a pyramid scheme, yet they themselves are a multi-level pyramid scheme.

I was trying to find the Scripture where Paul asks, is it better to obey man or God? But to no avail. Then this came to mind:

Daniel 6:
7 All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.

8 Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.

9 Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree.

10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

“If Christians remained once the antichrist makes peace with Israel they could count the exact day to the 2nd coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 1260.”


Exactly! And to that point, the Words spoken, “no man knoweth the day nor the hour” had to refer not to the Second coming, but indeed to the snatching away. Which I’m certain was your point. Well said my friend, well said indeed.

“Well, you make some assumptions there (a peace treaty with Israel, for example is just your interpretation, the Bible doesn’t actually say that)”


Daniel 9:24-27
King James Version
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Here is the basis of the theme:

2 Peter 3:8
King James Version
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

Let me know what you think of it.

I enjoyed that. Thanks.

6+1, 6000+1000.. makes sense and follows His week pattern.

One item that goes a little beyond the 6+1-
Ezekiel 46:1
Thus saith the Lord God; The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

He counts 6+1 every week.
But He counts 1+6+1 at the start of every one of His months.
The extra 1 is a New Moon Day. A day that, according to the Sovereign,is not one of His 6 work days or His Sabbath..

Every month’s 7th Day Sabbath ends up on His 8th day with that pattern He taught Ezekiel.
Tough to start counting 1+6+1 if all we’ve ever learned is 6+1.
But that 1 on front of the 6 sets up quite a pattern.

Thanks again!
