Recently I was asked if I still believe the seven-year tribulation could begin in the now present fall harvest months of 2021. Yes I do. Our world is sinking into hatred, with threats of real wars between many nations. The possibility of imminent nuclear war with China and Australia, China and Taiwan, China and Japan, and China and the U.S. is very real. China seeks to dominate the world. And after COVID-19 went global infecting millions of innocent people, globalists seized the opportunity to plague the world with what’s become mandated vaccines that will partly serve the depopulation of humanity, as desired by Bill Gates, Prince Phillip, Klaus Schwab, and many other wicked elites as part of their Great Reset and New World Order. The idea of life returning to a pre-COVID-19 normal is gone, including vaccine-free international travel, vaccine-free job retention, vaccine-free military position, recreational and personal freedoms. Remember this?!
In addition to the imminent onset of World War III where, under the Second Seal “people should kill one another” (Rev. 6:4), the world is on the cusp of unprecedented famine and drought, some of which is the result of the breakdown of supply lines. COVID-19 vaccine mandates are taking many workers out of that supply line forcing the slowdown and distribution of food. In addition, large lakes, reservoirs, dams and bodies of water are drying up, and crops are desperately failing, all under the Third Seal Judgment. And I believe we’re also entering the time of the Fourth Seal, “a pale horse…And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth” (Rev. 6:8). This present age will never return to what we would call pre-COVID-19 normal because the time of the end of this age has come.
The events that will propel Antichrist to his seat of authority will be the onslaught of wars, famines and massive death waves. The world will beg for someone to save people from the numerous calamities that will give rise to the false messiah, and this world will welcome his austere authority with open arms as he will have false answers for mankind’s desperate needs. This could yet occur in the now present fall harvest months of 2021. But these events may be delayed at the most by another year or two, but no more. Discerning the signs of the times, and given the massive increase of wickedness, hatred and divisions, evil men can’t stop themselves from killing one another on a global scale. Satan wants all people dead and he will incite many people-killing events. Again, God could stop it but He won’t, for He will never deny His own Word. As Jesus said, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away” (Matt. 24:35; Mark 13:31; and Luke 21:33). We must believe and act on that in true faith.
God is withdrawing His restraint on evil, 2 Thess. 2:7, as the past twenty months show. This should cause us true believers to rejoice “as you see the Day approaching” (Heb. 10:25). And “To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation” (Heb. 9:28). The unprecedented evils now prevailing across all sectors of our government, from President Biden on down, with vaccine mandates and relinquishing autonomy of people’s bodies over to wicked governments, we know these evil forces are fulfilling Psa. 2:1–3. But sadly, many non-discerning Christians, led by non-discerning pastors, trusting governments rather than God, relinquish their physical autonomy to governments for injecting dangerous vaccines into their bodies though God said, “do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s” (1 Cor. 6:19–20).
There will be no return to pre-COVID-19 normal. Those days are now gone as the fourth beast-kingdom of Dan. 2:40 and Dan. 7:7 exercises its authority throughout the earth. And that wicked authority will grow increasingly powerful. I can only pray that Christians are discerning of these truths, for only therein can one effectively prepare in the warnings God gave His true believers, to be like the five wise virgins of Matt. 25:1–13. I warn you in the love of Christ, trust very few people, for we are now entering the time when “brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved” (Mark 13:12–13). Be spiritually aware of who you can and cannot trust. You need to discern spirits, discern the witness of people’s mouth. Know if they speak by hollow traditions of men or with the wisdom of God’s written Word. Discern the fraudulent and pretender. And know this, love defends the end-time testimony of Christ, but fear, unbelief and cowardice refuses the same!
We have entered the time when people are already turning on one another medically. It’s a war between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated. The unvaccinated have suddenly become enemies of the state and of the vaccinated. It’s absolutely insane! The vaccinated, those allegedly secure from COVID-19, blame the unvaccinated for COVID-19 infections! And worse, governments incentivize the vaccinated ratting out the unvaccinated. Governments now use their full force and power to turn people against one another in hateful and divisive ways. They serve the god of this age. The unvaccinated aren’t the danger, the vaccinated are the danger to both the unvaccinated and vaccinated according to this article by ussanews.com, and from gellerreport.com “Covid Vaccines Are Killing More People Than They’re Saving”. Further, America’s defense is being destroyed by Biden’s vaccine mandates, which is precisely the intention of elite globalists!
Every true Christian must prepare to endure to the end as Jesus taught. If we hold fast to the testimony of Christ and prepare therein, then we will see God’s Word come to fruition wherein “A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, and see the reward of the wicked” Psa. 91:7–8). Keep your eyes, ears and heart fixed on the testimony of Jesus and not traditions of men, for the latter will leave you wanting. Know what Christ taught for the end-times and prepare accordingly, because those who do will be like the five wise virgins of Matt. 25:1–13.
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, [not traditions of men] and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, [the testimony of Christ] and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; [nor in the false wisdom of a pre-trib rapture] fear the Lord and depart from evil” (Prov. 3:5–7). The pre-trib rapture is a tradition rooted in evil. It rebelliously departs from all Christ’s end-time teachings which amounts to the sin of rebellion against Christ who said that He is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6).
SPECIAL NOTICE: TheFridayLetter.com will be taking a two-week sabbatical beginning after today’s post. Lord willing, the next post will occur on Friday, October 15, 2021 after returning from a nearly cross-country road trip. Please pray with us that the Lord will grant us a trouble-free vacation as we make our five-thousand mile round-trip. God bless you and keep you!
