The REAL End Game of the New World Order PDF Print E-mail
PastorDavid

Today let us consider that the "New World Order" that we are hearing about everywhere today is a DECOY.

With info SO READILY, and EASILY available about this "New World Order", and as more people "wake up" and start seeking the truth behind the shenanigans we are seeing played out on the world stage, Satan has set up this decoy "New World Order" as what they are to wake up to. As a matter of fact, the lunatic Satanic, Luciferian, elitists LOVE it when the news of a "New World Order" is spread all over the place because they created the paradigm.

It will be the one AFTER this, the NEW New World Order, will take on many of the characteristics of the "Truth Movement". It's the one AFTER this, the one humanity is being lied to and programmed to accept as the TRUTH, THAT will be The Beast.

The Bible, The Holy Scriptures, speak of the One World Government (Beast out of the Sea, Revelation 13:1 ) and the Antichrist as being WANTED by the world, Revelation 13:4 , John 5:43 . However, wherever we look people are opposing this NOW, in major ways.

Very possibly, we could soon see Satan managing, through Almighty God's allowance, to mimic some of the events of the Great Tribulation, Daniel's 70th Week. A major war, then a peace Treaty with Israel brokered by a "patsy" antichrist (maybe this “Maitreya” character. Remember we are told in 1 John 2:18-19 , there will come many antichrists), then World Peace, and then the Truce is broken, catastrophe follows and as it really appears that the world is heading toward Armageddon…the REAL Antichrist comes on the scene…destroys the "patsy" antichrist and the decoy "New World Order"…and is heralded by the WORLD as the TRUE Christ who is to return. False Flag diversions like this are common in covert planning.

Now, of course, before the REAL Antichrist is given the command from The Throne, by God, to go forth, Revelation 6:2 , the Body of Christ is removed. Take THAT to the Bank! How LONG before, well, that's another topic. But just think about how many will be completely disillusioned by a chain of events like this. And it is perfectly reasonable to suspect that Satan would do this, and then how willing the world will want the REAL Antichrist, when all is said and done.

So, by now, you may be asking, what is the REAL End Game of the Satanic, Luciferian, Illuminist, and lunatic Elitists quest for a “New World Order”?

The whole purpose and mission of the Satanic realm is to rebuild the Antediluvian world. To get back what was lost, as a result of God’s Judgment on them for their attempt to corrupt the Messianic line, in The Flood. This, Antediluvian world is today known by New Agers, Satanists, Illuminists, upper level Freemasons, and the like, as ATLANTIS. And some call America, the NEW Atlantis.

These Elitist lunatic Satanists and, for that matter, all of the Satanic realm want all of humanity to be ultimately, completely, and totally corrupted by the fallen angel’s offspring…AGAIN! Genesis 6:2 . And thereby creating and setting the stage for the rise, once again, of the Nephilim, the offspring of fallen angels and women, giving birth for them NOW, as it was then in the Antediluvian world, the very same "mighty men which were of old, men of renown." Genesis 6:4 .

There is strong indication that the Ten Kings of The Beast will be these Nephilim beings. Revelation 17:12 . Each one of these “Kings” will be the Leader of one of the Final Empire’s 10 Super Nations or Unions. This is, what we believe to be, the ultimate goal for the Satanic lunatics behind the New World Order.

Now, just as in Genesis 6:5 "And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually" and then again in Genesis 6:11-12 "The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth" So it will be again, when the Nephilim are in charge. THEN, at that time, on Earth, there will be found NO FAITH IN GOD!

So let's read now as The LORDs words will ring true (as always):

Matt. 24:36-39 " But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be"

Then in Daniel 2:43 , in describing the Final Empire from Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream, he writes:

And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay”

Make note, in order for the “They” to mingle themselves with the “seed of men”, the “They” have to be something OTHER than the “seed of men”!

And then also:

Luke 18:7-8 "And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find the Faith on the earth?"

The answer to that is NO! By the time of the LORD's return "To the Earth", (not descending into the air for the Harpazo, the Rapture, of the Body of Christ), all of what is left, except for the Children of Israel, will have been corrupted by these Nephilim.

Satan, will have believed by that point, that he corrupted the Earth so badly, much worse than at the time of the Flood, that God will want to have nothing to do with the Earth, and Satan will have won. This is the End Game of the Satanic Realm and the New World Order! Satan will be SORELY Disappointed!

And now, Some Food for Thought:

The time between Enoch's Harpazo/Rapture and the start, the first day, of the Flood is 531 years According to The Bible in the Book of Genesis. Could that be an indication of the time between the Rapture and the Return of the LORD to the Earth?

Take note, there is NO WHERE in scripture that says that the Great Tribulation, Daniel’s Prophesied 70th Week, begins immediately following the Rapture.

I also believe that the knowledge of the timing of the Harpazo, The Rapture, of the Body of Christ, has on it a Spiritual Padlock of sorts. This is NOT, so much, to keep us from knowing the time of our “Blessed Hope”, Titus 2:13 , as it is to keep Satan from being able to plan for it.

So there should be no surprise then that there is much talk in the New Age community of “The Cleansing”. Instead of teaching that the Body of Christ will be Raptured prior to the start of The Day of The LORD, as many Christians believe, New Agers believe in a reverse rapture of sorts.

New Ager’s, channeling their “masters” (demons), call it the "cleansing," and New Age literature describes it as a time when all the “wicked” people of the world, including Christians and others who don’t go along with the coming New Age occultism, will be removed to another dimension and be destroyed.

"Prepare yourselves," wrote New Ager Aleuti Francesca, "for the day now closely approaches and those who are not so prepared must vanish from the face of this your Earth. Those who align themselves with the things of the Old must surely be destroyed with that age of decay and darkness."

The "cleansing" teaching is an obvious tactic of Satan who will want an excuse for The Rapture of The Body of Christ after the event takes place, in order to quell enormous and out of control public hysteria. The LORD God wants Satan to be completely fooled by the event of the Harpazo, The Rapture, just like he was fooled by the unfolding and revealing, to the Apostle Paul (and NOT the 12), of The Mystery, The Body of Christ, after Our LORD’s Resurrection and ascension.

"But we speak the wisdom of God in a Mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory, Which NONE of the Principalities of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory1 Corinthians 2:7-8 , and then, "And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it" Colossians 2:15

Back to Some Food for Thought on the Rapture

Once again, the time between Enoch's Harpazo/Rapture and the start, the first day, of the Flood is 531 years According to The Bible in the Book of Genesis. So, could that be an indication of the time between the Rapture and the Return of the LORD to the Earth. And again, there is NO WHERE in scripture that says that the Great Tribulation begins immediately following the Harpazo, the Rapture.

So let's see. The Average lifespan for the Antediluvian person was 929 years, also according to The Bible in the Book of Genesis, (That's Adam to Noah, not including Abel or Enoch). Then, according to the Psalms (Psalm 90:10 ), man's lifespan is three score and ten years (70 years.)

Since we know the length of time between Enoch's Rapture and the First Day of The Flood Judgment (531 years), and we know the average Antediluvian lifespan, and we also know what the Bible says is the lifespan of man today, we can use a little of that algebra from school, we thought we didn't need to learn, to find out what would likely be the comparative span of time between the Harpazo, The Rapture of the Body of Christ, and the Day that the LORD returns to the Earth for the Final Conflict.

So here we go:

929 / 531 = 70 / X

531 x 70 = 37,170 / 929 = 40 years

Therefore, there very well could be a span of time of 40 years from the Rapture to the physical appearance of The LORD returning in Glory to the Earth. 33 years (The amount of time of the LORD's Incarnation) + 7 years (Daniel's 70th week) = 40 years.

Not that it matters to the Child of God as a member of the Body of Christ, as we will be home, in Heaven, with The LORD. The Body finally united with it’s Head in Glory, Forever.

Search all these things out for yourself!

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” Acts 16:31 , while there is still time!

So There You Have it!

Spread this message to everyone you know, far and wide. The time is short

Grace be to you and peace, from God: our Father, and The LORD Jesus Christ.

In The LORD Jesus Christ,
The Lion and Lamb Ministry

I read with much interest your thoughts on the end times and the rapture.
You are rite on many points but I must say that the Nephilim are already here! The L-RD has shown them to me and I to them.
The other thing is Daniels 70 weeks, each week is what we call in Hebrew a shaboa . A shaboa is seven years. So in Daniel when you reed a week (seven days) it is seven years, each day is a year. More later.

ok! interesting! but lacks enough information on Nephilim, also in RubenM's comment. So are the Nephilim Fallen Angels incarnate through the seeds of women, or one particular seed, in the same manner as The Lord Jesus Christ was incarnate by God The Holy Ghost through the Virgin's womb? or human men possessed by fallen angels? or something else? This causes confusion. Does anyone have a revelation from God The Holy Spirit on this? and not learned from men!

Hi Mary,

First off Fallen Angels are NOT Nephilim or demons/devils. A fallen angel is part of the 1/3 that rebelled against the Almighty God following Satan. The Nephilim are the offspring of the fallen angels when they took human woman, and the women conceived for them, we find the origin of that in Gen. 6. The demons are the disembodied spirits OF the Nephilim that were killed by the Flood, and after.

Angels , scripture tells us, can appear. And appear like a man. While demons ALWAYS need a body to inhabit. We see that when The LORD cast the demons out of the young man and they requested to go into the pigs.

To Glorie,

Well first off, the angels appearing in our realm, appear as men, young men. As opposed to the demons, who need to inhabit a body in order to manifest.

BUt a real clue come sin Jude 1:6, and you like this to what Adam and Eve lost in the Fall....well, you have your answer

OK, let me take the risk of asking a silly question.. If the women "in those days", now or in the future ( then, the fallen angels and in the future by the Nephilum), will their offspring of mixed seed and their descendants all be condemned without chance of salvation?

First, this is NOT a silly question. Ok let's start with this...the Book of Isaiah says that the Nephilim and their descendants will not participate in a resurrection as is the portion of ordinary mortals. Isaiah 26:14 reads: "They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise."

The original Hebrew word translated "deceased" here is the word "Rephaim." It would have saved a lot of misinterpretation if the translators had left the word as it was in the original. The verse actually reads: "Dead, they shall not live; Rephaim, they shall not rise." The Rephaim are generally understood to be one of the branches, so to speak,of the Nephilim, and God's Word makes it clear that they are to partake in no resurrection. But with humans it is different: all humans will be resurrected either to life or to damnation (John 5:28-29).

Oh My! Tell me, what might be true to all this cloning and "reptilian" things that I hear about. Would there be any truth to any of that? Could that ever be possible? Or if that similar to a decoy to throw you off a bit as well? This possibility was mentioned to me and I thought it was far fetched. Then I have seen videos on the subject so, I have to ask. This prospect has only come to my attention this year in 2010. Of all the years I have been saved, I had never heard anything like this. I don't want to discount it if it is true. Could it be that they are trying things like this? Please don't laugh at my naivete! In some cases, I know I am naive. Even though I am old! LOL. But I do believe that there will be a return of the Nephilim. But what has this reptilian stuff, if anything, where does that fit in, or does it?

Yes, with all the modern technology they have and already are playing around with human DNA and mixing it with other DNA...and yes all you said is possible and is happening already. Get the Book called Forbidden Gates, it explains all of this very well. Everything Satan is doing is right down to trying to destroy the "SEED" of man.....that God created...by going straight to the DNA.

I have to express a doubt about this 40 year period you've spoken of. My primary reason for doubt being that there is absolutely nothing in Scripture linking the length of the period of time between Enoch's rapture and the flood to the period of time between the rapture and second coming. Also, it seems the events of Daniel's 70th week happen in rapid succession as they take only 7 years.The removal of the "Restrainer" (at the rapture) I believe will cause things to start happening too rapidly to allow for such a long period of time. ("....except those days should be shortened...") Just an opinion. I do agree about the endtime influx of the nephilim. If Jesus' statement "as the days of Noah were..." only referred to people "eating and drinking, marrying...etc." it doesnt make sense because the earth has been that way since those words were spoken.

Grace and Peace

I just wanted to clarify something about "as the days of Noah were..." The primary meaning of this is that just as people in the world at that time did not believe in the warnings about the Flood and were not looking for it right up to the time the rain started, people in the end times will not believe the Lord is coming back and will not be looking for Him. However, I believe that in these latter days, the Holy Spirit is opening the eyes of prophecy students to this Nephilim connection in order that we may provide a warning to tribulation believers so that they will understand whose these beings are that will be walking the earth. I think the reason we are not seeing them already is due to the work of the Restrainer (the Holy Spirit). It is no coincidence that so many prophecy students are seeing this now.

Grace and Peace

correction: in my second to last sentence i typed the word "whose" when I meant to type "who. Interestingly, the sentence works well both ways! The trib believers will need to know both who these creatures are and "whose" they are!

I have to admit, this is the first time I've heard this idea of a long interval between the Rapture and the Second Coming. I cannot refute it as there is nothing in Scripture referring to this period of time at all. It would seem that the longer we remain in this world the more that world events seem to be the "setting of the stage" for post-Rapture events. The revolts in the mid-east could be a preamble to the Psalm 83 conflict. If your "false flag" idea is right,then that may be when the "patsy antichrist" tries to make a treaty with Israel putting her in the condition to fulfill Ezekiel 38, after which the REAL Antichrist steps in, takes credit for God's miraculous deliverance of Israel from her enemies, takes out the "patsy" and "confirms" the treaty that was already made by the patsy! just a speculation, but the longer we go the more clearer these things will be I think

oops, sorry! I meant there was no Scripture referring to the period of time between the Rapture and Daniel's 70th week!

Php 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

This calling was given before the foundation of the world, according to Romans 8:29,30 and Eph. 1:4 (which is why we can be spoken of as having been raised up to sit together in heavenly places in Eph.2:6) We are "called to be saints" 1 Cor. 1:2

The jews were not told of an interval between the Lord's birth and His Triumphal entry into Jerusalem for two reasons. 1. the prophecies were about specific events, not periods of time.
2.the fact that there would be such an interval of time was not relevant to anything. Again I must point out that there is no Scripture that speaks of, or refers to an interval of time between the Rapture and the start of Daniel's 70th week. That there will be an interval between the Rapture and tribulation is a possibility I cannot and will not deny. However to say that period will be 30 years or 4o years long forces one to "argue from silence" or engage in the same kind of eisogesis that we claim not to do.

Grace and Peace

btw the period of time between our calling and the Rapture is ALOT longer than 30 years! (from before the foundation of the world...)

Dear Brother Jim,

To make this even clearer let's compare what we call the "second" Advent with the "first" Advent.

When the Coming of the Lord was announced in Micah 5:2, it was announced as a coming FORTH; and then in Zechariah 9:9 as a coming UNTO. Micah speaks of the coming forth at Bethlehem, and Zechariah of the coming unto Jerusalem.

In Zechariah, Christ comes UNTO Jerusalem, "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass." Zech. 9:9

In Micah 5:2, Christ comes FORTH at Bethlehem, "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." Micah 5:2

Now, pay attention here, there was nothing in those prophecies to tell the Jewish reader whether there would be any interval between these events, or what that interval would be. The Jewish Bible student might think there was a discrepancy; while the Jew with the mind of a "higher critic" might see a greater difficulty, and refuse to believe either Scripture.

Now, of course today, we, with our knowledge, know that there was an interval of more than THIRTY years between the two events. Both refer to one and the same Coming, but to two different stages in it; and that all the events between them go to make up what we speak of as the "first Coming."

We believe that it will be exactly the same with regard to what we call the "second Coming." There will be the same two stages, with a similar interval (or longer it may be) between them, and all the events (which are recorded in the Book of Revelation and elsewhere) will go to make up what we speak of as "the second Coming."

There will be the coming forth (as at Bethlehem) of "the Lord Himself" and the calling of His saints on high (Philippians 3:14), and the receiving of them in glory (1 Tim. 3:16); and then, LATER ON, to fulfill all the prophecies which related to His People Israel; and, as the Son of man will "come unto" the earth, to take unto Himself His great power, and reign.

Dear Brother Jim,

You wrote, "there was no Scripture referring to the period of time between the Rapture and Daniel's 70th week"

When the Coming of the Lord was announced in Micah 5:2, it was announced as a coming FORTH; and then in Zechariah 9:9 as a coming UNTO. Micah speaks of the coming forth at Bethlehem, and Zechariah of the coming unto Jerusalem.

Show me the Scripture that speaks of the 30 year interval between these two events.

Now, tell me WHY the Second Advent should differ from the First Advent, when we are clearly told that there will be the coming forth (as at Bethlehem) of "the Lord Himself" and the calling of His saints on high (Philippians 3:14), and the receiving of them in glory (1 Tim. 3:16); and then, LATER ON, to fulfill all the prophecies which related to His People Israel; and, as the Son of man will "come unto" the earth, to take unto Himself His great power, and reign.

Dear Brother,

Please address my comments. It seems you are simply adding your viewpoint without actually addressing what I am responding with.

Quoting jmerrick67:
After re-reading both your posts and mine, one thing is clear. I addressed your comments to me directly and succintly. If you choose to read a 30 or 40 year period of time between the Rapture and the Second Coming into Scripture, thats your business. However in love I would offer a word of warning. Reading things into Scripture is how heresy starts. Im not saying this this time period thing weve been discussing is heresy, far from it. But we should be careful that what we teach is actually out of the Scriptures and not something we've put in it.


The 30 or 40 year interval in the article above is labeled as "Food for Thought". And again, you cannot answer concerning the interval of time between the two events of the First Advent. THAT interval is not SPECIFICALLY addressed either.

Yet it was the lack of considering that there COULD be an interval that led the Scripture student of that day to believe there could be a discrepancy in the prophecy of the coming of the Messiah.

Here is what we DO know...

Please first read, Ephesians 1:9; Ephesians 6:19-20; Ephesians 3:9-11; Ephesians 3:1-5; Colossians 1:24-27; and Colossians 4:3-4.

In Ephesians 1:9 we read “Having made known unto us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He hath purposed in Himself.” Then in Ephesians 6:19-20, the Apostle Paul wrote that he was in the Roman jail for “the Mystery of the Gospel.”

As we read the Epistle to the Ephesians, we learn that “the Mystery of God’s will” was “the Mystery of the Gospel.” What was the mystery mentioned in these verses? The Mystery has been made known and God, the Father, wants all of His children to know it. (Ephesians 3:9). (Ephesians 1:16-23; Ephesians 3:14-19).

Christ, in John 6:39-40, told us something of the will of God...“And this is the Father’s will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.” “And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.”

This is still God’s will, “by the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” (Hebrews 10:10). But God’s eternal purpose is to have a company of redeemed sinners separate and distinct from all other companies.

In 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 we read of the Gospel by which believing sinners are saved. But note in these verses these words, “according to the Scriptures.” Christ’s death and resurrection was that the Scriptures might be fulfilled. (Acts 13:29-30). (Luke 24:44-46). Therefore, when the Apostle Paul preached that saving Gospel, it was NOT “the Mystery of the Gospel,” for that “Mystery” message was not made known by, or to, ANY of Israel’s prophets. (Colossians 1:25-26). That is why it is called “the unsearchable riches,” meaning “untraceable” or “unprophesied riches.”

“The Dispensation of the Mystery” is, “according to God’s eternal purpose in Christ.” (Ephesians 3:9-11). This Grace and purpose was given to members of the Body of Christ BEFORE the world began. (2 Timothy 1:9; Ephesians 1:4-11; Romans 8:28-29). It was God’s SECRET until AFTER Israel rejected Christ in resurrection. It was revealed to, and through, the Apostle Paul, who was born out of due season; chosen by Christ to be “the Apostle of the Gentiles.” (Romans 11:13; 1 Corinthians 15:6-10). It was for this reason that Paul (Saul) was the ONLY unbeliever, the ONLY unsaved person on earth, who saw Christ after He was raised from the dead. Then he said by God’s Grace He was the LORD’s master builder, who laid the foundation, and saints must build with him. (1 Corinthians 3:10).

For this distinctive message and ministry, because he was the custodian of this Divine deposit, he suffered as an evil doer in chains, the prisoner of the LORD Jesus Christ for Gentiles. (2 Timothy 2:8-9; Ephesians 3:1-5). And he added that others should be partakers of the same afflictions and suffer persecution. (2 Timothy 1:8; 2 Timothy 3:12).

And here is The Mystery...



Before Israel was created for God’s glory, before all of the promises concerning Israel’s coming glory and the millennial reign of Christ on earth, even, before Adam had sinned, or was created, God PREDESTINATED that members of the Body of Christ should be conformed to the image of His Son. (Romans 8:28-29). They would be SEATED in the Heavenlies in Christ. God’s eternal purpose is to have a company of redeemed sinners SEPERATE and DISTINCT from ALL OTHER companies. Dwell on this.

These predestinated and justified believers are to be JOINED to Christ as ONE flesh, to make ONE New Man, the Perfect Man, with HEAVENLY citizenship, to appear with Christ in glory. (Ephesians 2:6; Ephesians 5:31-32; Ephesians 2:5; Ephesians 4:13; Philippians 3:20-21; Colossians 3:1-4).

THIS the Father wants every Christian to make known (Ephesians 3:9). And, of course, Satan hates this message with a vicious hatred.

Thus we see something of “the Mystery of God’s will,” something that DIFFERS from the PROPHESIED kingdom. (Acts 3:19-21; Amos 9:11-15). God is NOW, During this Dispensation of the Mystery, building up the Body of Christ. (Ephesians 4:9-13). At the close of this Dispensation of Grace, The LORD will return in the AIR, (1 Thessalonians 4:17) and call home His Body. Then, at the close of the Great Tribulation, Christ will return to EARTH, (Revelation 19:11-21) after the close of this age and Dispensation of Grace, to build, then, again, the tabernacle of David. (Acts 15:15-18).

So There You Have it!

Spread this message to everyone you know, far and wide. The time is short

Grace be to you and peace, from God: our Father, and The LORD Jesus Christ.

Quoting jmerrick67:
I can see how a jew reading the prophecies of the first advent could possibly be confused as to the timing. It does seem though that any time confusion should have been relieved at their fulfillment. Especially the triumphal entry! that fulfilled the prophecy so clearly and literally yet the pharisees didnt see it! We may not be totally clear on the timeline of endtime events, but we should be absolutely clear that the next prophetic event is the Rapture of the church, as we are not told to look for any other signs. Grace and Peace


I agree, the next event will be the Rapture.

However it is NOT an event of prophecy. Meaning that Israel's prophets knew nothing of it. WE KNOW, because it was revealed to us by the Holy Spirit through the Apostle Paul.

Grace be to you and peace, from God: our Father, and The LORD Jesus Christ.

After re-reading both your posts and mine, one thing is clear. I addressed your comments to me directly and succintly. If you choose to read a 30 or 40 year period of time between the Rapture and the Second Coming into Scripture, thats your business. However in love I would offer a word of warning. Reading things into Scripture is how heresy starts. Im not saying this this time period thing weve been discussing is heresy, far from it. But we should be careful that what we teach is actually out of the Scriptures and not something we've put in it.

The Rapture is not an event of prophecy? wow thats REALLY splitting hairs. Of course it was not prophesied in the OT, however Paul prophesied of it in 1 Thess. 4. Unless that doesnt count as a prophecy. :lol:

LOLOL...Well, I put it like that because SO MANY are always tryiong ot prove or show the Body of Christ and the Rapture from the Old Testament Prophecies. And, ALL controversy concerning the Body of Christ arises from that practice....BUT, Praise the LORD you know the Truth, and your understanding has been enlightened!

I think most prophecy scholars would agree that the Dispensation of Grace is an intercalation or a parenthesis in Daniel's 70 weeks. the 69th week of Daniel ended on Palm Sunday when Jesus rode into Jerusalem. There was a period of some years between this event and the conversion of Paul. It would make sense that the period of time between the Rapture of the church and the beginning of Daniel's 70th week might be about the same length of time. However, there's one thing this idea (and yours) doesnt take into account is that the Restrainer of sin is removed at the Rapture. This event will affect the timing drastically.

Dear Brother Jim,

Ahh yes, the great question of what is the "What" of 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7, "And now ye know WHAT (what could this be?) withholdeth that he (the Antichrist) might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he (who is this "he"?) who now letteth will let, until he (again, who is this "he"?) be taken out of the way" 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7

Brother Jim, what is your explanation of this? Let's explore this further, as I believe something very wonderful can come of it!

In my view, the only person who could qualify as "he who now letteth" is the Holy Spirit in His indwelling ministry in the Body. When the rapture happens, "he is taken out of the way" allowing Satan more free reign. I also believe that to a certain extent this restraint had been gradually removed over time but will not be completely removed until the Rapture. I know some people view Satan as the restrainer but to me that makes no sense, as he would be restraining himself! Other views included Roman civil power or Papal temporal authority, however both of those have been gone for a long time. Im interested in what you think of this.

To clarify my view about the restraint being gradually lifted, as the church drifts more and more into apostasy, the restraint on sin is also being slowly lifted. this apostasy is mentioned in 2 Thess. 2:3, and the fact that it would be gradual is affirmed in 2 Tim. 3:13.

Dear Brother Jim,

Let's discuss the Apostle Paul's usage of "apostasy" in 1 Timnothy 4:1 and in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 in another venue, perhaps in the Lion's Forum we could start a topic on this.

But HERE, I would like to discuss the "what" and the "he" of 2 Thess. 2:6-7

fair enough about the apostasy thing. Thats a topic all by itself! So what is your view on the "what" and "he"? By the way I am enjoying these exchanges alot! Very thought provoking!

Dear Brother Jim,

Your question concerning 2 Thessalonians 2:6-9 has led to this:

I don't mean to change the focus off of what was being discussed previously, but after rereading this message, I can clearly see how a decoy maybe in the making by what we are witnessing in our world today. It will be extremely interesting to see how things play out. I know some that have begun to change their viewpoint from being pre-tribs to post.

The teaching of the cleansing by the New Agers has also increased. It looks as though the stage is being set. It is definitely a time to watch and pray and TEACH the WORD of the LORD! The enemy may be at work, but our God is greater and He let us in on how the story ends.

It is interesting to consider that there may be another layer of intricacy behind all this new world order stuff. It does seem very possible that these so-called "secret" groups are kinda like the "dummy corporations" the mafia uses. None of these groups are secret! We know who their membership consists of. There is too much info thats easily available about these groups and their activities. Note also that the membership of the Bilderberg Group, The CFR, the Trilateral Commission and the Bohemian Grove overlap. There are people who are members of almost all theses groups, possibly all of them. Could it be that there is a group BEHIND all these groups, that uses them as a "front"? A group we dont hear about with a name no one knows. No books or websites about it. Of course we know Satan is ultimately the grand puppetmaster behind all of this. Such secrecy and scheming is not hid from the eyes of our Lord and Savior, so all this need not scare us or cause unnecessary worry. It is interesting to consider though. Thank you for the great article Brother David!

Dear Brother Jim,

Thank you for the kind words and Praise the LORD.

The Bilderbergs, CFR's, etc they put out MIS-information, while these organizations themselves are DIS-information.

Very happy to see you looking into these things as you are!

Grace be to you and peace, from God: our Father, and The LORD Jesus Christ.

Pastor David
