Introduction

Jesus’ return is the backdrop for the crazy time we are experiencing!

Jesus is returning to earth the second time!

Acts 1:9-11 (NLT)

After saying this, he was taken up into a cloud while they were watching, and they could no longer see him. 10 As they strained to see him rising into heaven, two white-robed men suddenly stood among them. 11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why are you standing here staring into heaven? Jesus has been taken from you into heaven, but someday he will return from heaven in the same way you saw him go!”

Ephesians 1:10 (J.B. Phillips)

For God had allowed us to know the secret of his plan, and it is this: He purposes in His sovereign will that all human history shall be consummated in Christ, that everything that exists in Heaven or earth shall find its perfection and fulfillment in Him.

During a transition time between King Saul and King David, the sons of Issachar had insight into the changes coming.

1 Chronicles 12:32 (NKJV)

…of the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their command;

1. We are living in between the age of Grace and the age of Divine Judgment.

We are right at the end of the church age where we have been for 2000 years, and are entering an age of judgment just before the second coming of Christ and his 1000-year rule we call the millennium or the millennial reign of Christ.

Hebrews 6 mentions some of the fundamental doctrines of scripture that we should be familiar with:

Hebrews 6:1-2 (NKJV)

Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

One of the major doctrines of scripture is eternal judgment.

Sin will be judged on every level:

Each individual will be judged. (That’s why we preach the gospel):

The gospel is good news to a sinner!

Our present American culture resists any idea of future judgment.

The major mindset is that everyone is going to heaven.

https://www.barna.com/research/americans-describe-their-views-about-life-after-death/

Most Americans do not expect to experience Hell first-hand: just one-half of 1% expect to go to Hell upon their death. Nearly two-thirds of Americans (64%) believe they will go to Heaven. One in 20 adults (5%) claim they will come back as another life form, while the same proportion (5%) contend they will simply cease to exist.

Hebrews 9:27-28 (NLT)

And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment, …

(28) so also Christ was offered once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.

All of us individually will one day stand before Jesus and give an account!

Don’t be scared. Jesus took your judgment!

Believers will be judged or rewarded:

2 Corinthians 5:10 (AMPC)

For we must all appear and be revealed as we are before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive [his pay] according to what he has done in the body, whether good or

evil [considering what his purpose and motive have been, and what he has achieved, been busy with, and given himself and his attention to accomplishing].

Nations will be judged:

Matthew 25:31-33 (NKJV)

When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. 33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.

God has given us much. “To whom much is given, much is required…”

There are those with loud voices in the media and online that want you to believe that America has rejected its Christian roots. If we stay silent and let them lie this into existence, then America will be judged if we stay on our current course.

Some believe we are now under judgment.

We have killed 64 million babies; in public schools we are grooming our children to be sexually immoral. Marriage is no longer a given, and the original design has been perverted to include same sex marriage. We are worse than Sodom and Gomorrah!

Satan and the antiChrist will be judged.

This globalist cabal that is seeking to undermine our election process and take away our constitution, Bill of Rights, and hence our freedoms, will be judged right along with the antiChrist!

The Killing of Uncle Sam: The Demise of the United States of America: Howard-Browne, Rodney, Williams, Paul: 9781645720041: Amazon.com: Books

Revelation 20:10 (NLT)

Then the devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the fiery lake of burning sulfur, joining the beast and the false prophet. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Hint – Don’t take sin lightly. Deal with it quickly. Satan will gain a toehold in your life if you do not deal quickly with sin.

So because of this living in between, things are going to feel a bit awkward and strange if you compare now to the previous years of your life.

It seems as though we have turned a corner, and things are proceeding rapidly to their endgame.

2. The only unchangeable thing is the word of God.

If you base your life on anything but the Word of God, you are going to fail.

Isaiah 33:6 (NKJV)

Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,

And the strength of salvation; The fear of the LORD is His treasure.

Matthew 24:35 (NKJV)

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

Psalms 119:89 (NKJV)

Forever, O LORD, Your word is settled in heaven.

Isaiah 40:8 (NKJV)

The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.”

Isaiah 55:11 (NKJV)

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

The Word will give you stability. It will give you hope, and faith will rise within you!

Spend MORE time in the Word than you do in the news or on social media, etc…

Turn off social media, news, etc. They have become mechanisms of control…

Instead of being guided by circumstances, feelings, or thoughts, you decide to let God’s Word guide your life.

Smith Wigglesworth quote about the Word of God:

Read it through; write it down; pray it in; work it out; pass it on. The Word of God changes a man until he becomes an epistle of God.

 

Read it, memorize it, meditate it, believe it, work it in, walk it out!

 

3. Great pressure is here to stay.

Luke 21:8-13 (NLT)

He replied, “Don’t let anyone mislead you, for many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and saying, ‘The time has come!’ But don’t believe them. 9 And when you hear of wars and insurrections, don’t panic. Yes, these things must take place first, but the end won’t follow immediately.” 10 Then he added, “Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 1) There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and plagues in many lands, and there will be terrifying things and great miraculous signs from heaven.

12 “But before all this occurs, there will be a time of great persecution. You will be dragged into synagogues and prisons, and you will stand trial before kings and governors because you are my followers. 13 But this will be your opportunity to tell them about me.

Luke 21:14-19 (NLT)

So don’t worry in advance about how to answer the charges against you, 15 for I will give you the right words and such wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to reply or refute you! 16 Even those closest to you—your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends—will betray you. They will even kill some of you. 17 And everyone will hate you because you are my followers. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish! 19 By standing firm, you will win your souls.

Luke 21:25-28 (AMPC)

And there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars; and upon the earth [there will be] distress (trouble and anguish) of nations in bewilderment and perplexity [without resources, left wanting, embarrassed, in doubt, not knowing which way to turn] at the roaring (the echo) of the tossing of the sea, 26 Men swooning away or expiring with fear and dread and apprehension and expectation of the things that are coming on the world; for the [very] powers of the heavens will be shaken and caused to totter. 27 And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with great (transcendent and overwhelming) power and [all His kingly] glory (majesty and splendor). 28 Now when these things begin to occur, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption (deliverance) is drawing near.

Learn to pray and expect God to answer!

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,

And lean not on your own understanding;

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He shall direct your paths.

Matthew 6:33-34 (NKJV)

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

4. Sin, sexual depravity, and lawlessness will become the norm in society, while living godly will be set aside.

The Globalists’ plan is to remove any faith in God from the people. They want your faith to be in them and their system that controls you.

So, schools are teaching and encouraging homosexual, lesbian, polysexual, and transgender ideology, and these kinds of ideas are promoted on all social media sites, on Youtube, Instagram, Reels, and Tic-Toc – all aimed at tainting the minds of the young and moving society away from the Biblical ethics of the 10 commandments that made us great.

People are easier to control when they have no standards.

Jesus said that when He returns, It will be like it was in the days of Noah:

Luke 17:26-27 (NLT)

When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. 27 In those days, the people enjoyed banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat and the flood came and destroyed them all.

In Noah’s day, the entrance of fallen angels and human relationships producing giant offspring that were barbaric and ruthless had proliferated all over the world.

This was the reason for Noah’s flood.

The fallen angels took on human form, and lusted after the women of the time. They corrupted the human DNA structure and compromised God’s order of humanity.

They also spread an anti-God ideology that took God out of the equation of human life, and wickedness and depravity spread profusely.

They taught witchcraft and introduced occult ideas that pandered to the dark side – fallen angels and demons were worshiped and allowed into mainstream society.

God HAD to judge it.

God was being replaced by another way of thinking and living that did not include Him.

The people of the day were not aware of what was coming. They were just living life like normal. And sin and alternate lifestyles, where any kind of sex was okay, were being normalized.

The people had no expectation that a crisis was looming.

Likewise, in our day, these same things are beginning to happen.

There is now a rash of alien or UFO encounters being talked about.

Sightings are being reported all over the place.

The ideology is being spread.

As it was in the days of Noah.

Most people have no idea what is coming before Jesus returns. You must warn them!

It will be like it was in the days of Lot:

Luke 17:28-30 (NLT)

And the world will be as it was in the days of Lot. People went about their daily business—eating and drinking, buying and selling, farming and building—29 until the morning Lot left Sodom. Then fire and burning sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Yes, it will be ‘business as usual’ right up to the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

As in Lot’s time, all morals are acceptable. Homosexuality, lesbianism, transgender, and binary sexuality are accepted as an alternative to heterosexual relationship and marriage. And this is being taught in public education.

These things brought judgment in Noah’s day, and in Lot’s day.

It is a good thing that people are rising up to resist the moral decay being presented to our children. Boycott with your money places that are spreading family-destroying ideals.

Boycott businesses that promote these things boldly.

That rainbow that God put in the sky as a promise to never use a worldwide flood to destroy the earth is a reminder of God’s faithful promises. Now it is used as colors on a flag to promote what judgment destroyed in Sodom and Gomorrah!

Behind this is the antiChrist spirit seeking to remove from the world any Judeo-Christian moral ethics. The goal is to sanitize the world of Christian moral beliefs. This will create persecution.

Just like in Noah’s day, and Lot’s day, most people have no idea about what is coming. Warn them.

Luke 17:28-30 (NLT)

People went about their daily business—eating and drinking, buying and selling, farming and building—(29) until the morning Lot left Sodom. Then fire and burning sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. (30) Yes, it will be ‘business as usual’ right up to the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

5. An Endtime Timeline of Events from the Bible:

Here is a quick quick reminder of what is coming…

From Daniel 9 we learn that there are 7 years of time when God deals with Israel that are not yet fulfilled. God showed Daniel 490 years of Israel’s future of which 483 are fulfilled. And that time clock stopped when Jesus was crucified.

An undetermined time of 2000 years now has elapsed, and we may be the generation to see the last 7 years fulfilled.

A huge sign of Jesus’ soon return was in 1948 when Israel became a nation again after almost 2000 years.

They will never leave that land!

In 1967, Israel regained control of Jerusalem for the first time since AD 70.

In 2017, the US recognized Jerusalem and relocated their Embassy there.

When Jesus returns, He will rescue Israel from a terrible war that may have started last year!

There will be an agreement of peace of some sort that will seem to bring hostility to an end. It will most likely be an agreement to house a Palestinian State right there beside Israel, and there will be a pseudo peace that will not last long.

A Jewish temple will be rebuilt in Jerusalem.

The Globalists, headed by the person the Bible calls antiChrist, will renege on their peace with Israel

A one-world government will be in force.

The world leader we call antiChrist will violate the rebuilt temple and break his agreement with Israel.

This will begin a time of great persecution of Jews and Christians. It will probably be because of our moral stance against sexual sin.

War, inflation, famine, death, martyrdom, and solar disturbances are a part of this time.

Several years into this 7-year period, the wrath of God begins. Nature turns violent. This is called the Day of the Lord.

Revelation 8 begins the trumpet judgments on earth after the antiChrist begins his reign. This is the beginning of the wrath of God.

Meteorites hit the earth. This begins the wrath and judgment of God. These things are coming.

Judgment is coming. We must pray and share Jesus with people!

I believe we will see a prewrath rapture.

We leave in the rapture when the sun, moon, and stars darken with some kind of cosmic disturbance.

Thomas Horne had a vision about 5 years ago with a date and name of an asteroid (Apophis- the Greek god of destruction) that hits the earth – April 13, 2029. That could be the fulfillment of Revelation 8.

The Messenger.

https://a.co/d/0vijm0d

Be ready. Don’t just think about today. Think about your future in eternity.

Luke 17:31-35 (NLT)

On that day a person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack. A person out in the field must not return home. 32 Remember what happened to Lot’s wife! 33 If you cling to your life, you will lose it, and if you let your life go, you will save it. 34 That night two people will be asleep in one bed; one will be taken, the other left. 35 Two women will be grinding flour together at the mill; one will be taken, the other left.”

(Referring to the rapture of the church).

In some ways, life will go on just like it has for generations.

Don’t get caught up and too immersed in the culture.

Lot’s wife looked back because maybe she missed the old life “Her heart was attached to something that was judged in Sodom.”

Don’t cling to the old.

My opinion: Our American idols are being judged. Money. Sports. Recreation. Leisure. Hollywood.

Will it ever get back to normal? Who knows. Probably NOT!

We are to seek first the kingdom of God!

What we are dealing with is setting us up for something else.

The elites that are pushing the antiChrist one world control have found out how easy it is now to control people with health issues. Science or no science.

They have learned the art of brainwashing people to accept what science rejects.

Don’t be a part of the herd mentality.

It’s time to bring yourself into an internal separation from what your flesh likes and what you have to have to be happy.

Honor God. Honor His Presence. Honor His purity!

6. The Holy Spirit will manifest strongly again.

Joel 2:28-32 (NLT)

Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions. 29 In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on servants—men and women alike. 30 And I will cause wonders in the heavens and on the earth— blood and fire and columns of smoke. 31 The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and terrible day of the LORD arrives. 32 But everyone who calls on the name of the LORD

will be saved, for some on Mount Zion in Jerusalem will escape, just as the LORD has said.

These will be among the survivors whom the LORD has called.

Isaiah 60:1-3 (NKJV)

Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. 2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the LORD will

arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you. 3 The Gentiles shall come to your light,

and kings to the brightness of your rising.

Ask for the Holy Spirit to be poured out once again all over the world, and in your life and in your church.

Bottom line, be a person of the WORD. God honors His Word.

As all of this comes, He will make a way for you.

He will provide, protect, and preserve you if you will trust Him.

Action Points:

How to prepare:

1. Judge sin in your life and ask God to help you overcome it. Get rid of idols you may have…

2. Read and live by scripture.

3. Pray with the expectation of answers.
