Okay folks, time to start aligning the signs we see around us and across the globe, to see if we are indeed at the end times. The end Times will technically last seven years. But since we believe the Rapture happens before the seven years start counting down, can we look at the signs which point to the coming seven years events and know the Rapture is even closer than that seven years?
A video to share with friends and family members. Ignoring the signs of the times won’t change the imminency of what is rushing at us.
No matter what else you see happening around the world, the true key is Israel.
pray, work for good....never give up....God does not expect that...
Prophesy is there for you to know that God is in control now.

First BIG clue, Israel is back in the land. Think of how many prophecy items suddenly came ‘alive’ because Israel was restored to the land in 1947/48.
The appearing of Christ is our Hope of Glory... sounds like what you’re saying is we can turn this thing around if we work and pray like never before. Well, God is long suffering and patient but when its time, its time. God gave Israel many reprieves from judgement, but there always came the time to execute His judgement. It is time for America’s judgement, we should be about warning all those around us of His coming judgement... we are not responsible to save the world and create His kingdom ourselves, He will do that... it is our responsibility to testify to the truth and mercy of God, and His judgement.
That was the key...People mock the idea of the 2nd Coming in our lifetime making statements like, 'people have been predicting this event for 2000 years'...
It took 2000 years (it had to) for that key prophecy to be fulfilled and put the 2nd Coming of Jesus in 'real time'...
It had to be 6000 years from Adam and Eve for this to take place...People in other generations and many in this one missed that...
It is not just America that is deserving of His judgment.
And what an astonisdhing time to be alive! The God Who creates is about to appear and interact directly on a physical plane with humanity ... again! Two thousand years of proclaiming His atonement work. Now is time for the harvests of the ‘thing’ He has been fabricating, that spiritual thing known as the Body of Christ, The Ekklesia, The Bride of Christ. we are alive in the epoch when the spiritual and the physical will be manifested for the entire world to witness. We’re about to have a major disappearance, It is interesting to speculate on what will be a lie so great that it will explain away the mass departure. No doubt there will be some great ‘natural’ catastrophe that occurs at the time of this departure, which will lend itself to the great lie.
Not to worry; there will be PLENTY of judgment to go around.
But we all know that God’s judgment upon America has ALREADY began. A great book about this coming catastrophe is “The Harbinger”, by Jonathan Cahn.
If this recent Supreme Court decision has shaken you up, keep reading:
http://supernaturaltruth.com/a-word-to-the-church-about-the-supreme-court-ruling-on-gay-marriage/
From Art Thomas:
Today the Supreme Court of the United States issued a ruling by a narrow majority to legalize same-sex marriage in all 50 states. The full ramifications of this are not yet known, but as we process this news in the coming days, I believe we need to keep our focus in the right place.
Its very rare that I share a prophetic word on my web site (mainly because thats not my primary ministry). But today I had an encounter with the Lord that I believe needs to be shared with the Church of America:
I saw a vision of a large, walled city with a great spiritual army attacking its walls. The Church was stationed on the inside, concerned about the spirit of the world infiltrating their fortress. They were fighting off the opposing spiritual army with great effort.
Suddenly, a giant gavel (wooden hammer used by a judge) appeared and began to beat against the wall. The Church rushed to where the gavel was beating, and when they did, they left a gate to their city open, and a great cloud of fear swept in through the opening.
I heard the Lord say:
Many of my people have misplaced their hope. They are discouraged because they are watching the advancement of the kingdoms of this world rather than watching the advancement of My Kingdom. Many have felt the tension among my children as some of them have celebrated the decision of the earthly courts while others are deeply troubled. In the midst of this tension, many of My people have been distracted by an earthly decision and have allowed fear to enter their hearts.
So I say to My people: Do not be afraid. Guard the gate of your city that stands against the cloud of Fear. If you let in the cloud of Fear, you will lose your discernment, and your voice will lose its clarity.
Do not fear what the earthly gavel can do. This gavel will destroy some things that you have built, but it will never destroy what I have built. You can rest in your hearts and continue to advance my Kingdom with love-filled and grace-filled action, or you can rally around voices who would proclaim fear and despair to you. Keep your eyes fixed on Me, guard against fear, and you will remain in My victory.
I specifically feel I should comment on what the Lord called voices who would proclaim fear and despair. I have a sense that they are found in the media both professional media and amateur media. In our on-demand culture, we have a choice to spend the coming days and weeks seeking out news sources, articles, blogs, and conversations that promote fear and hopelessness; or we can spend this time continuing to focus on the Great Commission and leading our culture with humility, love, and confidence in Christ. Only the latter will help us to remain in victory.
Do not be distracted or discouraged by the decision of an earthly court. This does not mean you cannot engage in the conversation and public discourse; it simply means that you must guard both your heart and your tongue so that you can be a voice of hope rather than a voice of despair.
The Scripture promises regarding Jesus that of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end (Isaiah 9:7, NKJV). His Kingdom is continuing to advance. So while this may feel to you like a great setback in the battle for our culture, it is not the final word. The only way this becomes a blow to the Church is if we allow fear to rule in our hearts rather than keeping our hearts and minds grounded in the established victory of Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 6:10-13 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devils schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. (NIV)
Continue to remain focused on our mission: making disciples of all nations. Keep proclaiming Good News.
Standing firm with you,
Art
My guess:
Have you ever mixed together the theories of Wal Thornhill (the Electric Universe), the Tom Van Flandern theory on a planet around which Mars was a moon, and this planet came apart n the distant past, the Biblical sotries about 'the Sons of God and the Daughters of men, the Angels who 'kept not their first estate'? There are some interesting late-night discussions to be found in those notions mixed together.

I seem to remember someone singing, a piece of bread would buy a bag of gold.

What I’m left with as an impression from biblical prophesy is that Israel will face the wrath of the entire world alone, eventually.
To me, this is consistent. God’s protection for Israel is sufficient, is the message, and it will be.
The US is out of the picture in that scenario. Barry seems to be hastening that bit of it, it would appear.
