V WAR
Understanding the imagery of Revelation and Daniel end time kingdom's is complicated, to say the least, and as they both deal with the same end time kingdom (but from a different perspective) before Christ sets up His kingdom then a good place to start is always where an explanation has been given as to what those images mean.
Image |
Meaning |
In Revelation 17:1 We are told of a woman (great whore) who sits on many waters. | In Revelation 17:15 the angel explains that the waters where the woman sits represent peoples, multitudes, nations and languages. |
Verse 3 this woman was sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns. | Verse 18 explains the woman as the great city, which rules over the kings of the earth. . |
Verse 3 and it had seven heads. | Verse9-11 explains
the seven heads as
seven mountains, on
which the woman sits.
These mountains (of people e.g. empires) represent ruling worldly
powers and of these seven kings
who ruled these mountains, five have
fallen.
At the time John had this vision Rome was still ruling the known world and said that this Caesar (who said they were gods) was the present head and after this one the seventh head would show but he must continue a short time ( Holy Roman Church where the popes who had power over kings of the world said they were infallible and spoke as God). This end time beast is a combination of all the seven heads (empires/kingdoms) and is an eight kingdom in itself. |
Verse 3 and ten horns. | Verse12-13 explain the horns as ten kings, who give their power and strength to this end time beast . |
In Daniel 8:3-11 he sees a ram with two long
horns one being longer and newer than the other which is explained
in 8:20 as being
the kings of Media and Persia. While Daniel was watching this, he saw a male goat come from the west (Western powers). This goat had one large horn between his eyes that was easy to see. He crossed over the whole earth so fast that his feet hardly touched the ground. (flying?) {The Goat is explained in Daniel 8:21-22 as the king of Greece. In Revelation it talks
about various heads arising on the beast which seems to refer to
political structures. The great horn that is between its eyes is explained as the first
king. The first king of the democratic free world i.e. president of
the U.S.A. who is often referred to as the leader of the free world. It seems to me that this goat being Greek in nature is
actually talking about the political structure of this grouping of
people which would be democratic in nature as democracy originated in
Greece. The direction of this (almost continually air born) end time
goat was from the West } Looking at what has happened with this war between Saddam and America we find a lot of similarities. Firstly Saddam, being the king of Iraq, indeed has been pushing to the north, south and west. Iran pushed him out of their country and America pushed him out of Kuwait. Saddam has been involved in terrorism in the West and now is a defeated leader and Iran's leader is next. Finally the country with the large horn (super power under a Greek type of government i.e. America) attacked him mostly from the air and is now in control of that country and nobody was able to stop that American coalition from doing that. |
In Revelation 17:3-4 John sees a woman sitting upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns . And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication. In the next chapter it will be shown why this woman represents New York city and why it rides world trade but for now what I wished to show is the similarities between these two end time beast of Daniel and Revelation . What is important to see in these two comparisons is these beast at this stage are made up of two main parts. In Daniel it is a goat with a large horn and in Revelation it is a woman on a beast who controls it.
|
A closer look at this four horned Democratic
(Greek) goat reveals their is a structure in Europe that has all the
major players included in it to make up the four horns and also one of
its aims is to promote Global Democracy. This structure is called the "Council
of Europe". (Use back arrow on browser to come back to this
site)
In Daniel 8:8 where told that once this democratic goat has defeated the ram it grows stronger but later the large horn breaks and is replaced by four smaller horns. Instead of being one powerful force united behind the U.S. it is now four, but the reason for this breaking and redistribution of power isn't stated. Revelation tell us the cause of the split in that beast was due to the beast itself causing it to happen.
|
Revelation 17:16 John sees the end time beast ruled by the ten horns (powers/kings) destroying the woman (the great city which reigns over the kings of the earth-Rev17-18. Note U.N. diplomats from around the world meet in New York city )
Revelation 14:8 (KJV) |
First Goat Horn |
Second Goat Horn | Third Goat Horn | Fourth Goat Horn |
1776 U.S. splits from
England.
Note the standing lion with the Unicorn on the monarch of England's emblem, the one horned goat portrayed as a horse and showing the relationship to it. A king standing beside this democratic beast.
(These beasts rise up out of the sea of people) |
USSR bear. The 3 ribs in the bears mouth are its own countries and represent the 3 horns that will be ripped from the iron beast's head to make room for the rise of the Antichrist. The raised side is due to the wound received by pulling out these Eastern European powers (it's ribs) who make up the fourth beast. Remember, the ten toes are on two legs, 5 from Eastern Europe and 5 from Western Europe forming the final fourth kingdom.
|
The Western European Union Is formed by the combining of 7 founding members, the first set of wings from the German Eagle, the second set of wings and the first head on the cat's body from Italy, the second head from Belgium, the third from Luxembourg, the fourth from the Netherlands, the spots from the French fleur-de-lis. The 7th member England is a beast in it's own right and works with this beast.
|
The Council of Europe forms the body of this Democratic beast from which these 4 horns rise from. The 4th head will be a union of the 5 toes on each foot, the union of Western European powers and Eastern European powers. At present the European Union now includes Eastern European powers and some of the Western European Toes have come even closer together in the Euro countries. Expect similar from the Eastern European countries till both join together as the 10 kings. Revelation 17:8 The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and will come up out of the Abyss and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now is not, and yet will come. When John saw this vision it was during the Roman Empire, the empire that was before it was the Greek Empire then it was not and now this Democratic empire has surely risen again. Daniel 7:12 states that all four beast will be together and the other 3 beast will remain for a little while after the fourth beast has been destroyed. |
In Daniel 7:8 it explains that a little horn grew up among them. It was a little horn with eyes like a human’s eyes. It also had a mouth, and the mouth was bragging. The little horn
came up after three of the ten other horns were removed. Notice again this mouth is speaking for this beast and in Revelation that beast had a lion's mouth. Also that this horn has human eyes and the man/lion that arose out of the first beast had it's human characteristics. In Daniel 7:23-25 The fourth animal is explained as a fourth kingdom that will come on the earth. It will be different from all the other kingdoms and will destroy people all over the world . This last kingdom is made up of ten horns which are ten kings/leaders who will come from this fourth kingdom. After those ten kings are gone, another king will come. He will be different from the kings who ruled before him, and he will defeat three of the other kings. Note that these 3 kings/rulers are of the 10 horns/kings making up the 4th kingdom/horn on the 4 horned goat.
This king will be the Antichrist.
|
In Revelation 13:5-7 And there was given unto him a mouth
(the mouth of the beast is of a lion) speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continued forty and two months(3 1/2 yrs also in Daniel) . And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven . 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all people, and tongues, and nations . Revelation 13:16-18
|
In Daniel 2:41-43 Daniel sees the structure of
the kingdoms of the world and zooming down to the statues toes, the 10
toes/horns are explained as being partly strong like iron and partly breakable like clay. You saw the iron mixed with clay, but iron and clay do not hold together. In the same way the people of the fourth kingdom will be a mixture, but they will not be united as one people.
If we look at the European countries that seems to be exactly what is happening, countries with different languages have joined together to form the ruling part of this 4th horn(global power) from which the antichrist will rule.
|
|
Revelation 17:12-13 (KJV)
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast . These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast . |
Concluding remarks on
the Antichrist We know that the mouth of the beast is a lions mouth (Rev.), and the lion has a mind of a man (Dan.). The horn that emerges after 3 of the 10 horns has human eyes and speaks. The horn can only speak through the mouth of the lion of the beast which seems to indicate that this horn/antichrist will come from England. (A king of England?) |
THE BEAST/GOAT DESTROYS THE PROSTITUTE/LARGE HORN
REV 17:16 | THE BEAST AND THE TEN HORNS YOU SAW WILL HATE THE PROSTITUTE, THEY WILL BRING HER TO RUIN AND LEAVE HER NAKED, THEY WILL EAT HER FLESH AND BURN HER WITH FIRE. |
Humm!!
We know what the Beast is and how it is held together so what is this Prostitute
that the Beast destroys?
ZECHARIAH 5:5-11 |
Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me,"Look up and see what this is that is appearing." I asked, "What is it?" He replied, "It is a measuring basket." And he added, "This is the iniquity of the people throughout the land." Then the cover of lead was raised, and there in the basket sat a woman! He said, "This is wickedness," and he pushed her back into the basket and pushed the lead cover down over its mouth. Then I looked up and there before me were two women, with the wind in their wings! They had wings like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth. "Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel who was speaking to me. He replied, "To the country of Babylonia to build a house for it. When it is ready, the basket will be set there in its place.'' |
Humm!!
As we go further into this article the more clearer it will become but for now
the groundwork needs to be done, so in continuing, in the above verses from
the Bible what I wanted to point out is that when Zechariah was given this vision,
Babylonia that he knew was going into decline. He sees the spirit of this whole
sinful system in the form of this woman in the basket which is then taken to
the country of Babylonia and set there to grow once they had built a house for
it. As it is a -new- house(a new Babylon) that they build for it and not the
old house which was in decline and the fact that the two women lifted the basket
and flew away with it to a different place then I put it also to you that it
was also a new country where this woman would inhabitate -a new Babylonia.
ISAIAH 13:17-20 | See, I will stir up against them the Medes, who do not care for silver and have no delight in gold. Their bows will strike down the young men; they will have no mercy on infants nor will they look with compassion on children. Babylon, the jewel of kingdoms, the glory of the Babylonians’ pride, will be overthrown by God like Sodom and Gomorrah. She will never be inhabited or lived in through all generations; no Arab will pitch his tent there, no shepherd will rest his flocks there. |
Humm!!
Before Babylon was destroyed by the Medes, Isaiah had already predicted that
Babylon would be in that way destroyed many years before it happened. Isaiah
predicted this while Babylon was still a superpower but notice also once destroyed
she would not rise again as shown by the above verse. So when Zechariah saw
his vision in the declining years of Babylon after the Medes had destroyed her
this Babylon mentioned in revelations definitely is another place altogether
as the old Babylon would never again be inhabited.
REV 17:5 |
THIS TITLE WAS WRITTEN ON HER FOREHEAD: MYSTERY |
Humm!!
Babylonia was the country centered around the city of Babylon which was one
of the greatest cities of the ancient world. As this woman was carried away
to a new Babylonia then the new house of this woman was given the new name 'Babylon
the Great' in Revelation. When John saw this vision of end time events I doubt
very much if he knew where this city was located or even the country -' MYSTERY'.
This city was even more powerful than the old city of Babylon given the powerful
new title of- 'BABYLON THE GREAT'.
One interesting fact that I wish to point out at this stage is that although there are many Babylons in the world today none of them match the size and importants of the Babylon located on Long Island in New York, this is due to it being a part of the same urban sprawl as the mighty New York city. As Babylon was a familar name to John he called it "Babylon the Great" instead of some strange name that made no sense to him.
The final two lines of the above verse also gives the same location due to the fact that nuclear weapons would have to be by far the most destructive abominations that man has ever created and New York city in the United States began the birthing project under the guise of the Manhattan Project where engineers from Manhattan New York city plus from other countries got together to build the nuclear bomb. Much of the initial work was done at Columbia University in New York and military direction came from an office in Manhattan and the whole programme became known as the "Manhattan project"-' THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH '
REVELATION 17: 1-2 | ONE OF THE SEVEN ANGELS WHO HAD THE SEVEN BOWLS CAME AND SAID TO ME, COME I WILL SHOW YOU THE PUNISHMENT OF THE GREAT PROSTITUTE, WHO SITS ON MANY WATERS. WITH HER THE KING OF THE EARTH COMMITTED ADULTERY AND THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH WERE INTOXICATED WITH THE WINE OF HER ADULTERY. |
Humm!!
The Great Prostitute seems to refer directly to the Statue of Liberty which
is located in New York city in the USA in that information on the Statue of
Liberty states that the seven spikes on the crown represents the 7 seas which
surrounds all the people of the world. The USA has military bases in other countries
-'SITS ON MANY WATERS' and also being a superpower the USA has a global influence
with its technology, wealth and culture(both good and bad), on the rest of the
world.
(Newspaper article)
Something also that should be pointed out is the kings/leaders of the
earth meet in New York city at the United Nations Headquarters.
REV 17:4 |
THE WOMAN WAS DRESSED IN PURPLE AND SCARLET, AND WAS GLITTERING WITH GOLD, PRECIOUS STONES AND PEARLS. SHE HELD A GOLDEN CUP IN HER HAND FILLED WITH ABOMINABLE THINGS AND THE FILTH OF HER ADULTERIES. |
Humm!!
Another reference to the United States of America through the Statue of Liberty
as this woman is dressed in royal clothing denoting authority and beautified
by her wealth and isn't the United States of America a rich Queen among the
nations? The spaces in the crown of the Statue of Liberty is said to represent
every precious gem on the earth and doesn't the torch in her hand look like
a steaming cup?
REVELATION 17:7 | Then the angel said to me: "Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns. |
Humm!!
This woman dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious
stones and pearls rides the beast and isn't it true that the USA, wealthy and
powerful, has a major voice in world affairs and rides not only the E.U. but
the rest of the world by the implementation of her foreign policies.
REV 17:16 | THE BEAST AND THE TEN HORNS YOU SAW WILL HATE THE PROSTITUTE, THEY WILL BRING HER TO RUIN AND LEAVE HER NAKED, THEY WILL EAT HER FLESH AND BURN HER WITH FIRE. |
Humm!!
This Beast whose core is formed from the union of the ten kingdoms will destroy
the power of the United States of America breaking the prostitute's domination
in world affairs.
REV 18: 15-18 | THE MERCHANTS WHO SOLD THESE THINGS AND GAINED THEIR WEALTH FROM HER WILL STAND FAR OFF, TERRIFIED AT HER TORMENT. THEY WILL WEEP AND MOURN AND CRY OUT: "WOE! WOE, O GREAT CITY, DRESSED IN FINE LINEN, PURPLE AND SCARLET, AND GLITTERING WITH GOLD, PRECIOUS STONES AND PEARLS! IN ONE HOUR SUCH GREAT WEALTH HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO RUIN!" EVERY SEA CAPTAIN, AND ALL WHO TRAVEL BY SHIP, THE SAILORS, AND ALL WHO EARN THEIR LIVING FROM THE SEA, WILL STAND FAR. WHEN THEY SEE THE SMOKE OF HER BURNING, THEY WILL EXCLAIM, "WAS THERE EVER A CITY LIKE THIS GREAT CITY?" |
Humm!!
It seems that one of the places that will be destroyed is New York City. New
York city would have to be one of the richest cities in the world, and the USA
would have to be one of the wealthiest nations of the world very similar to
the city of Babylon and the nation of Babylonia in there time. The Statue of
Liberty stands as a queen in New York city with the wealth of the world in the
New York Stock Exchange backing her and the kings/leaders of the earth meeting
in that city in the United Nations Headquarters. Note also that it has to be
a seaport, which New York is and the old Babylon isn't, as the sailors can see
'the smoke of her burning'. If there is any city in our time that could have
"WAS THERE EVER A CITY LIKE THIS GREAT CITY?" said about it and also
satisfying the other clues given of it in the Bible then there really is only
one and that is New York city.
REV 18:4 | THEN I HEARD ANOTHER VOICE FROM HEAVEN SAY: "COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT SHARE IN HER SINS, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY OF HER PLAGUES. REV 18:5-8 FOR HER SINS ARE PILED UP TO HEAVEN, AND GOD HAS REMEMBERED HER CRIMES. GIVE BACK TO HER AS SHE HAS GIVEN, PAY HER BACK DOUBLE FOR WHAT SHE HAS DONE. MIX HER A DOUBLE PORTION FROM HER OWN CUP. GIVE HER AS MUCH GRIEF AS THE GLORY AND LUXURY SHE GAVE HERSELF. IN HER HEART SHE BOAST,"I SIT AS QUEEN; I AM NOT A WIDOW AND I WILL NEVER MOURN." THEREFORE IN ONE DAY HER PLAGUES WILL OVERTAKE HER: DEATH MOURNING AND FAMINE. SHE WILL BE CONSUMED BY FIRE, FOR MIGHTY IS THE LORD WHO JUDGES HER. |
Humm!!
Knowing all this God gives a direct warning to get out of that
city so that you don't die within it when the time comes to punish it. As it
only takes an hour to burn it(consumed by fire) and those that see it stand
far away from it(plagues) then it can only be some form of nuclear weapon being
used against it and these plagues that come from it are probably the radiation
fall out from the weapon. As far as when God's going to allow someone(enemies
of the USA are many) to unleash a nuclear weapon on New York city is hard to
determine so the sooner out the better.
New York city being destroyed is just a taste of the future global nuclear destruction that will occur. If we continue to read further down from the above bible verse we find that the later verses state that God has taken his people to heaven for the union of Christ and Christians at the wedding feast. The point being that the pulling out of God's people occurs after the destruction of New York city but before the global destruction.
REV 16: 10-11 | THE FIFTH ANGEL POURED OUT HIS BOWEL ON THE THRONE OF THE BEAST, AND HIS KINGDOM WAS PLUNGED INTO DARKNESS. MEN GNAWED THEIR TONGUES IN AGONY AND CURSED THE GOD OF HEAVEN BECAUSE OF THEIR PAINS AND THEIR SORES, BUT THEY REFUSED TO REPENT OF WHAT THEY HAD DONE. |
Humm!!
Everybody knows that nobody wins even in a first strike with nuclear weapons,
everyone will suffer the results of the nuclear fallout and the sickness
from it, but that won't stop the Beast from this destruction of the earth
and as always God gets blame for something man does as the above verse indicates.
So is the destruction of New York City the trigger for the destruction of
the USA? Only time will provide that answer.
Jeremiah 25: |
This whole country will become a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years. But when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation, the land of the Babylonians, for their guilt, declares the LORD, and will make it desolate forever. I will bring upon that land all the things I have spoken against it, all that are written in this book and prophesied by Jeremiah against all the nations. They themselves will be enslaved by many nations and great kings; I will repay them according to their deeds and the work of their hands. |
Humm!!
As to when this destruction is coming to New York city the best clues
comes from the above bible verses from Jeremiah. These verses are about
the future Babylon because if you read futher down from the above verses
in the bible you will find that the guilty of whole world are slain i.e
the Lord will allow the wicked to destroy themselves. Also the verses
on 'Babylon the Great' in Revelation are very similar to those found in
certain verses in Jeremiah which indicates that he also deals with a future
Babylon, this 'Babylon the Great' in Revelation.
From the above verses in Jeremiah we are told that these nations will serve Babylon for seventy years and the question then arrises when did the nations(United Nations) first come together in New York ? In the below article it gives the date that the nations first met together at Lake Success in New York which is also a part of the same urban sprawl as New York city(like Babylon) and that was on the 28 August 1946. Seventy years after would bring the destruction of New York city to around about the 28th of August 2016.
"The World Came to Long Island" The small Village of Lake Success played a big role in the launch of the United Nations By David Behrens http://www.lihistory.com/7/hs741a.htm snip> Aug. 16, 1946. The first Security Council meeting came 12 days later, on Aug. 28. |
WAR IN HEAVEN
2 THESSALONIANS 2:1-3 | Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Lord has already come. Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. |
Humm!!
Before Jesus takes out his church the rebellion has to occur and the Antichrist
has to be revealed so I take this event to be around the time that the Beast
finally destroys the Prostitute thereby gaining control of the world.
2 THESSALONIANS 2:5-10 | Don't you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. |
Humm!!
Satan through his Antichrist will destroy the world but only at the proper time
when the one who restrains the lawlessness of Satan is taken out of the way.
DANIEL 12:1 |
"At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. |
Humm!!
As soon as the great archangel Michael arises lawlessness runs amuck which leads
to the obvious conclusion that it is Michael that keeps Satan in check on earth.
It seems that at the time Michael arises then that is the time when God's people(those
believers in Christ) are also delivered from the madness of the last half of
the end time tribulation.
REVELATION 12: 7-12 | And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: "Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony;they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short." |
Humm!!
Michael goes from the earth to heaven and throws Satan and his angels out of
heaven once and for all. Satan who leads the world astray, then accuses those
he led astray before God in the hope that they too will be eternally damned,
is madder than a cut snake when thrown out of heaven. This incredible power
of evil unleashed on the earth explains why the last 3.5 years of the 7 year
peace deal will be the worst the nations have ever seen through this now Satanically
controled Antichrist.
WAR ON EARTH
EZEKIEL 38:18-23 | This is what will happen in that day: When Gog attacks the land of Israel, my hot anger will be aroused, declares the Sovereign LORD. In my zeal and fiery wrath I declare that at that time there shall be a great earthquake in the land of Israel. The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the beasts of the field, every creature that moves along the ground, and all the people on the face of the earth will tremble at my presence. The mountains will be overturned, the cliffs will crumble and every wall will fall to the ground. I will summon a sword against Gog on all my mountains, declares the Sovereign LORD. Every man's sword will be against his brother. I will execute judgment upon him with plague and bloodshed; I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him. And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.' |
JEREMIAH 25:32-33 | Thus says the Lord of hosts, "Behold, evil is going forth From nation to nation, And a great storm is being stirred up From the remotest parts of the earth. Those slain by the Lord on that day will be from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be lamented, gathered or buried; they will be like dung on the face of the ground." |
ISAIAH 24:5-6 | "The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant. Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left." |
Humm!!
So the next thing that happens after Satan is kicked out of heaven is he gathers
all the people of the world together through the Antichrist, to attack Israel
but God steps in and makes those that once were allies to be enemies and they
end up destroying most of the world in a massive nuclear exchange. As the
above verses says every man's sword will be against his brother, mountains
will be overturned, cliffs will crumble,'every' wall will crumble and at the
end of it all after the wicked of the world have been dealt with, Jesus begins
his reign for a 1000 years on earth and the devil is locked up during that
time.
THE FINAL WAR ON EARTH
REVELATION 20:7-10 | When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God's people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever. |
Humm!!
After living under the perfect rule of Christ during the 1000 years you would
think that people would reject the Devil and the Devil would change his nature
and yet this is not the case. Satan influences those that reject God and are
alive at that time of the last rebellion to evil, to destroy God's people. The
outcome has already been decided but one thing is clear and that is evil is
such a poisonous thing that the only thing God can do with it is to throw it
and anything else that gives evil a home, into the lake of fire before it poisons
anything else.
