We Can See It Coming
RR ^ | 2/14/21 | Daymond Duck

Posted on 02/14/2021 10:01:18 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

I am an optimist because:

I believe Christians will soon see Jesus, see many of those that wrote the Bible, see multitudes of angels, etc. I believe Christians’ saved loved ones will soon be raised from the dead, and we will see them (I will soon see my deceased wife, and she will have a new body that will never get sick or die). I believe there is a good possibility that many Christians could go to heaven without getting sick, dying, having to be buried, etc. I believe the gates of Hell will not prevail against the Church, Christians will not go through one minute of the Tribulation Period, Christians will not be on earth when the persecution gets unbearable, Christians will not have to deal with the Mark of the Beast, etc. I believe the gospel will soon go all over the world, multitudes will soon be saved, all Israel will soon be saved, etc. I believe Jesus redeemed this Creation at the same time He redeemed a people on the cross, and the mess this world is in is temporary because Jesus will take this Creation back during the Tribulation Period. I believe there will soon be 1,000 years of peace, justice, and righteousness on earth, Jesus will be worshipped all over the globe, many Christians will have a crown of righteousness for loving His appearing, and Christians will come back to live and reign with Jesus here on this earth for 1,000 years. I refuse to ignore or be in denial about the signs, and I refuse to be pessimistic about the condition of the world because this world is not the Christian’s home, and we win. Finally, I am optimistic because I believe God’s promises, know that He said we can see the day approaching, know that many great prophecy teachers agree that we see the day approaching, and I know that we have much to rejoice about. Here are some reasons why I believe we see the Second Coming approaching:

One, concerning potential corruption in the White House and at the U.S. Dept. of Justice (DOJ): on Feb. 2, 2021, it was reported that Pres. Biden’s pick to run the DOJ’s Criminal Division and one of Hunter Biden’s new Criminal Defense Attorneys are from the same law firm.

Two, concerning a peace treaty in the Middle East: on Feb. 4, 2021, it was reported that UN Sec. Gen. Guterres wants to restart the Middle East Peace Process in the UN Quartet (US, EU, Russia, and UN) meetings.

Guterres thinks the meetings could succeed in producing a peace treaty because Biden “supports a two-state solution between Israel and the PA and will overturn several decisions made under his predecessor, Donald Trump.”

Guterres thinks Trump’s decisions need to be overturned because the Palestinians want a capital in East Jerusalem, plus they want Gaza and all the territory that Israel captured from Jordan in 1967.

Based on Scripture, this writer believes these people are just begging for the judgment of God to fall on this world, and they will come to regret what they are doing.

Three, concerning Jerusalem: on Feb. 4, 2021, the U.S. Senate added a resolution to the Covid stimulus bill that affirmed America’s intention to permanently keep the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem.

Biden’s administration said it does not intend to move the U.S. embassy, but they support a capital for the Palestinians in East Jerusalem.

Jerusalem is a cup of trembling and burdensome stone for the whole world.

Four, also concerning Jerusalem: on Feb. 1, 2021, Kosovo established diplomatic ties with Israel.

Kosovo recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and Israel recognized Kosovo’s independence from Serbia.

The next day, the Arab Parliament condemned the decision and urged Kosovo to reverse it, but that is not likely to happen.

Five, concerning Covid vaccinations: on Feb. 5, 2021, LifeSiteNews.com reported that U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data shows that between Dec. 14, 2020, and Jan. 29, 2021:

35 million people have received one or both shots. There have been 501 reported deaths (453 in the U.S.). There have been 10,748 reported adverse events (sent to doctor; admitted to hospital; permanently disabled, etc.). The average age of those that died was 77, and the youngest person to die was 23. In addition to the above, 139 cases of facial distortion and 13 miscarriages have been reported. In addition to the above, know that on Feb. 8, 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) said the current vaccines may not work on new strains of Covid that already exist.

People may need a different kind of vaccine.

Six, concerning pestilence in Israel: on Feb. 5, 2021, Joel Rosenberg, Editor-in-Chief of All Israel News, correctly pointed out that II Chron. 7:12-14 is God’s promise to heal and forgive Israel in the days of drought, famine, plague, etc., in response to the Israelis humbling themselves, praying and seeking Him.

Rosenberg noted that Israel’s Covid lockdown has not saved Israel, but God can.

Rosenberg asked Israeli Prime Min. Netanyahu, Pres. Rivlin, and the entire Israeli Knesset to publicly call for a National Day of Prayer based upon God’s promise in II Chron. 7:14.

Based on Scripture (Jer. 18:8), Rosenberg concluded that it is not wrong for other nations to follow God’s instructions in II Chron. 7:12-14.

At the time of this writing, this writer has not seen a response from Israel’s officials.

Seven, also on Feb. 5, 2021, researchers at an Israeli hospital said they have possibly developed a drug that may cure serious cases of Covid.

30 patients with moderate to severe cases of Covid inhaled the medicine for a few minutes once a day for 5 days, and 29 showed definite improvement in just two days (they were released from the hospital 3 to 5 days later).

More tests are planned, but the hospital believes their discovery is a game-changer.

Eight, concerning world government and open borders: on Feb. 1, 2021, U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested 11 Iranian citizens (6 men and 5 women) when they illegally entered Arizona from Mexico.

Three more Iranians were caught at this same location earlier this year, and others have been caught crossing at other places in the U.S. this year.

Open borders increase the chance of terrorist attacks in the U.S.

Nine, concerning world government and world religion: on Jan. 29, 2021, German Cardinal Gerhard Muller warned that Western capitalists, big-tech giants, and China are forming a dangerous alliance to control what people think, say, and do for the purpose of ruling the world.

Cardinal Muller warned:

That the World Economic Forum (WEF) is using Covid to call for a Great Reset to change the values (sounds like a one-world religion) and subjugate (sounds like a one-world government) the lives of everyone on earth. That this effort to control what everyone on earth thinks, says, and does is a deliberate action, not an innocent endeavor or a conspiracy theory. That Biden is now leading a campaign to “de-Christianize” the Western world (by pushing the Great Reset, promoting abortion, the gay agenda, etc.). He urged Christians not to participate actively or passively in this growing evil.

Ten, on Feb. 5, 2021, it was reported that the U.S. Federal Reserve is working with a group of international central banks (in England, France, Japan, China, Canada, Dubai, Switzerland, etc.) to push the Green Agenda, the Great Reset, the Paris Climate Change accords, the UN 2030 Sustainable Development goals, the world’s economic systems, the world’s depopulation goals, etc.

As I understand what they intend to do, any government, business or individual that wants to borrow money, apply for a grant, receive a stimulus package, etc., will have to commit to the globalist agenda, or they will not get it.

Put another way, people will have to support the globalist agenda to qualify for a loan, grant, etc. (they must submit to qualify, or they will be rejected).

This is not far-fetched. Tucker Carlson recently reported that Bank of America gave credit card information to the FBI on people that purchased items (T-shirts, weapons or weapons-related items, hotel rooms, etc.) in Washington D.C, Maryland, or Virginia on Jan. 5 or 6, 2021 (the day of the capitol takeover).

Eleven, concerning the coming economic collapse and famine: on Feb. 4, 2021, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. wrote an article for Technocracy News & Trends that said global lockdowns have:

Bankrupted 100,000 businesses in the U.S. Impoverished one billion people worldwide. Threatened the food supply of one billion people worldwide. Twelve, concerning persecution: on Feb. 3, 2021, it was reported that a proposed law in Denmark will require all sermons not preached in Danish to be translated into the Danish language and submitted to the government in writing.

Religious groups are protesting this law and expressing concern that approval in Denmark could trigger similar laws in other nations.

The bill is not clear, but religious groups also fear that they will have to submit their sermons to the government for approval before the sermons can be preached.

Thirteen, concerning gun control and world government: on Feb. 1, 2021, it was reported that a bill called H.R. 127 has been introduced in Congress (on Jan. 4, 2021) to track the make, model, and serial number of all firearms, who owns the firearm, the date each firearm was acquired, and where the firearm is being stored; it applies retroactively, and it covers firearms that a person has owned for a long time.

Those that already own firearms will be required to take a psychological evaluation, be subjected to a criminal background check, and their spouse and at least two family members or associates must be interviewed by a licensed psychologist.

Congress has not yet voted on the bill, but it is important to understand that Biden has promised gun control legislation, and many politicians want to disarm America before they surrender the sovereignty of the U.S. to the UN.

Gun sales have broken all records since this bill was introduced.

Finally, if you want to go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Rev 14:14 talks of Jesus removing His followers from harm's way - which is what happened in 67 AD with the Jesus-movement Jews running to Pellas (to the hills)

John 14:19-20 describes the Judgement of Jerusalem -- and this is reflected EXACTLY in Josephus' account of hte Jewish war where Josephus wrote

The ground did nowhere appear visible, for the dead bodies that lay on it; but the soldiers went over heaps fo these bodies, as they ran up such as fled from them
The measurement of the winepress as 1600 stadia corresponds to the dimensions of the land of Israel

Please do go and read those books - two by Jewish authors about the Talmud and Rabbi Ben Zakkai. They describe things from a purely rabbinical Jewish point of view and are written for rabbinical Jewish audiences.

Ping me after you've read those and tell me if you draw the same conclusions.

Furthermore, Phill of insufficient light — Strictly speaking, the sabbath is the day it always was—Saturday—though it should be noted that traditionally Jewish people have celebrated the sabbath from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday. Do you Adventists celebrate Sabbath from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday?


I know you as a Catholic know all about TRADITION, but tradition has nothing to do with the 7th day Sabbath being from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday. It is very clear in the bible.

Yes, I keep the 7th day Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday, just like Christ did during his life on earth. How about you?

So you reject the Phake teachings of the false prophetess Ellen G white who wrote Jesus entered the most holy of the heavenly sanctuary, at the end of the 2300 days of Daniel 8, in 1844, to make a final atonement for all who could be benefited by His mediation.” (Early Writings, p.253).

This is your Adventist belief system and you reject Ellen?

A break-up?

Woooh, you adventists have as your holey books, the writings of Ellen + Alahohaha.net and Whitestate?

Every species of animal which God had created were preserved in the ark. The confused species which God did not create, which were the result of amalgamation, were destroyed by the Flood. Since the Flood there has been amalgamation of man and beast, as may be seen in the almost endless varieties of species of animals, and in certain races of men.--Page 75.
your link goes on to say The primary usage of the word "amalgamation" through long years has been to describe the fusion of certain metals, and by extension, to denote the fusing of races of men. In the mid-nineteenth century the word was commonly employed in the United States to describe the intermarriage of the white and the Negro race.

Adventist founder and Phrophetess Ellen G White wrote that “The man Christ Jesus was not the Lord God Almighty.” (Letter 32, 1999, quoted in the Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, Vol. 5, p.1129).

Your link then goes on to write

The Sovereign of the universe was not alone in His work of beneficence. He had an associate–a co-worker who could appreciate His purposes, and could share His joy in giving happiness to created beings.

....oooh - so you Adventists believe that Jesus is a lesser "god"? or just an angel, eh?

Or are you like mormons?

Wow, so no wonder Adventists believe that Jesus was not God, but just a tool..

Wow - do you tell your black Adventists about this?

And then your link says clearly that Jesus is just, according to Adventists, a tool

Thanks for showing what you Adventists belief - it's more and more apparent that the folks here are correct about your belief-system

Cronos: I really don’t understand what you mean by “preterist”


The Catholic church knows and you are a Catholic. So, you should certainly know. I’m sure you know the writings of the Jesuit priest, Alcazar, very well.

Here’s the article again from one of my “favorite” sites, Aloha.net

Phillie - you don’t believe that you’re going to Heaven when you die, right? The Adventist belief is that folks get to heaven only AFTER the Second coming. Isn’t that right?

The Adventist belief is that bad folks and atheists are just going to be permanently destroyed, correct?

Why are 4/5 of the Vatican priests gay?
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/12/four-in-five-vatican-priests-are-gay-book-claims

What do you know about “The Code of the Closet”?

Why are so many of your priests Gay?

Vatican cops bust drug-fueled gay orgy at home of cardinal’s aide
https://nypost.com/2017/07/05/vatican-cops-bust-drug-fueled-gay-orgy-at-cardinals-apartment/

“Once police were inside the apartment, they said they found multiple men engaged in rampant drug use and homosexual activity.”

“The aide’s apartment building is the same place where Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger lived for about 25 years before becoming Pope Benedict XVI.”

“The scandal comes just a week after the Vatican was rocked by sex-abuse allegations against high-ranking church official George Cardinal Pell.
Pell was charged with multiple counts of historical sexual assault offenses by Australian police.”

“The Vatican police showed up to find an orgy in progress, with an untold number of naked men allegedly writhing around the floor with Capozzi and his cohorts, who were apparently under the influence of hard drugs according to the Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano which broke the story that a host of Italian and international media have since picked up.”

How long have you known about “THE CODE OF THE CLOSET”?

Why were all these orgies happening right next door to St. Peter’s Basilica?

Absolutely shameful what your church priests do to boys, young men, and each other. SHAMEFUL.

All the lies you tell about my church (and others), are just that, lies. People, including me, clearly show you where you are wrong and you just keep repeating the lie. I know why you do it. Your church is the Antichrist power and you will do whatever it takes to deflect from that and telling Jesuit lies is standard practice. Can you Tell us about he Jesuit oath?

Everything I’ve said about your church is the TRUTH, including the rampant homosexuality running amok. Deflect and lie all you want. I don’t care and it doesn’t bother me.

I read your post about the code of Phil’s closet.

I think.

Is that the one about Ellen g white saying Jesus is not God?

Or the one about the seventh day Adventist belief that Africans are, according to your proohetess Ellen half human and half animal?

I’m being totally serious when I say that I’ve seen many pictures of priests (all had their cloths on) and a large percentage of them looked gayer than a three dollar bill.

You seem to be the FR resident Catholic Jesuit Guru. Please tell me why so many Catholic priests are gay and what attracts so many of them to the Catholic church?

Isn’t homosexuality a sin in the Catholic church?

Why is your church so gay?
