Amazing Time - THAT WE ARE LIVING IN!!!

Amazing Time - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2020/08/09/amazing-time-by-daymond-duck/ FYI: My wife is in the hospital withCovid, and we would appreciate your prayers. I don't expect this to impact my writing, but if I miss one or two articles, please understand. Last week's article, "The King is Coming," was mostly Scripture and the relevance of Psalm 2. This article contains some of the more important things that got passed over last week, plus a few other events that may be significant. One, on July 22, 2020, the DemocraticParty released its 2020 platform. Concerning annexation of about one-third of Judea and Samaria (Land that God gave to Israel forever), "Democrats oppose any unilateralsteps by either side-including annexation-that undermine prospects for two states." "Democrats will restore U.S.-Palestinian diplomatic ties and critical assistance to the Palestinian people in the West Bank andGaza, consistent with U.S. law" (some of this assistance was cut off because part of it was being used to kill Israelis). "We believe that while Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations, it should remain the capital of Israel, an undividedcity accessible to people of all faiths." The Democrats are in favor of the two-state solution, which means they will divide the land of Israel, they will start givingthe PA hundreds of millions of dollars per year again, they have no problem with putting Jerusalem up for negotiations again, and they will restore the nuclear deal that Pres. Obama negotiated with Iran (when he sent billions of dollars on pallets of cashto Iran on a plane). Two, on July 23, 2020, it was reportedthat Pres. Trump's former U.S. Middle East Envoy, Jason Greenblatt, said Pres. Trump's Peace Proposal requires Israel to commit to setting aside territory for a potential Palestinian State in exchange for U.S. approval of Israel's annexation of about 30% ofJudea and Samaria. Most Israelis are in favor of annexing part of Judea and Samaria, but they are against setting aside territory for a Palestinianstate on part of the remainder because the Scriptures say God gave it to them. Many Evangelical Christians are against it too because it would divide the Promised Land, and God has warned the world not todo that. It looks like the two main political parties are committed to dividing the Promised Land, but one party is willing to give moreaway than the other. Three, on July 22, 2020, Israel appropriated$960 million to boost Israel's defenses on its northern border with Syria and Lebanon. Tensions are rising, and the Israeli military believes Israel needs more Infantry and equipment on its northern border right away. A war could fulfill several long-expected end-of-the-age prophecies. Four, on July 27, 2020, 3 to 4 membersof Hezbollah crossed Israel's border with Lebanon and traveled several meters inside Israeli territory. There was an exchange of fire that lasted about two hours. Hezbollah denies the attack, said they will attack in the future, no Israelis were hurt, the IDF is on high alert, and Israelhas built up her forces along the border. Five, on July 19, 2020, Israel, Italy,Greece, and Cyprus agreed to lay a mostly underwater 1,242-mile gas pipeline from Israel's oil fields in the Mediterranean to Europe. Russia, Iran, Turkey, and others are opposed to this pipeline because Israel will get a substantial amount of their gas business(Israel will have more silver and gold, cattle and goods in the latter years and latter days just like the Bible says; Ezek. 38:8, 13, 16). The U.S. supports the pipeline because it will make the EU less dependent upon Russia for natural gas (the pipeline is expectedto be completed in 2025). Six, on July 22, 2020, an Israelirabbi said a world government will rule the world for 9 months. He called this world government the New World Order. He said the Messiah will reveal Himself on Yom Kippur 2021 (Sept. 15-16, 2021). He said the Messiah will disappear and then reappear on Yom Kippur 2022 (Oct. 4-5, 2022). He said Moses received the Torah (Law) in the desert and we will receive the Messiah in the desert. He said Messiah will make His Second Coming between Yom Kippur 2022-2023. My first reaction was no one knows when the Messiah will appear, this is false teaching, and I will ignore it. Then a friend pointed out that Jesus said, "if they say unto you, Behold, He is in the desert; go not forth; Behold, He is inthe secret chambers; believe it not" (Matt. 24:26). Every jot and tittle of God's Word will be fulfilled, including a false prophet predicting that the Messiah will be received inthe desert (I choose to believe him not). Seven, concerning the New World Orderor world government, on July 18, 2020, UN Sec. Gen. Guterres said, "Today, in demonstrations for racial equality (I call it rioting and looting in Portland. They recently burned a Bible and the U.S. flag there.) ... in campaigns against hate speech... in thestruggles of people claiming their rights and standing up for future generations... we see the beginnings of a new movement." He was talking about a movement to bring in "more-fair globalization," which means a more-fair world government that takes intoaccount the rights of future generations as well as the rights of those that are living today. Globalists believe we need a world government to reduce the population of the earth, prevent the depletion of the world's resources,stop war, control global warming, and more. Of course, they intend to be the people that decide who lives or dies, who can buy food and who can't, who we worship and whowe cannot worship, etc. Eight, on July 21, 2020, U.S. Sec.of State Mike Pompeo told UK officials that he has "informed intelligence" that the World Health Organization (WHO) has been "bought by the Chinese government," and he has two reports that say it is a "political, not a science-based organization." The WHO denies the allegations, and Pres. Trump has given the WHO a one-year notice that the U.S. is pulling out of that corruptgroup. The coming world government will be very dangerous, and America must not let UN organizations whose leaders are owned and runby Communist China or any other group dictate U.S. policy (force economic lockdowns on the U.S., Church lockdowns, open U.S. borders to terrorists, or anything else). Nine, on July 27, 2020, Dave Hodgesreported that the UN has ordered Pres. Trump to withdraw America's troops from Portland (they are federal agents, not troops). Those that deny that a world government is rising should explain why the UN thinks it has the authority to order the Pres. ofthe U.S. to do anything. "What kind of orders will the UN give to the U.S. if it becomes a world government in 2030?" If the UN world government goes into effect in 2030, the Church won't be here, but the possessions of those left behind will beredistributed, world leaders will persecute and kill those that don't agree with them, 2/3 to 3/4 of those on earth will die, and it will be worse than anything that has ever happened on earth (Matt. 24:22). Ten, George Soros is funneling hundredsof millions of dollars through his foundations to groups (Antifa, Black Lives Matter, etc.) that are rioting in the U.S. On July 27, 2020, it was reported that he will funnel $50 million into the campaigns of Democrats before the 2020 elections. Be aware of these facts: most of the violence is occurring in cities and states that are run by Democrats, Soros is funnelingmoney to the rioters, and he wants to elect more Democrats (these are facts that can be checked, not partisan politics). Many have noticed that the elected officials in these cities are of one spirit with the rioters and looters, even sympathizingwith them and calling their violence destruction of property, and injury of people a peaceful protest. Most Christians are aware that lawlessness, deceit, and lies are of Satan (Jn. 8:44). U.S. citizens need to carefully decide if these are the kind of leaders they want because the violence could come to their house,church, etc., and it will probably be useless to call the police. Eleven, on July 27, 2020, it was reportedthat Google is developing smart tattoos to be placed on humans that can be used like the touchpad on a smartphone. A person will be able to touch or swipe the surface of a tattoo on their arm and trigger responses like they get on their smartphone(there will be sensors in the tattoo). This could mean that people will soon be able to have a mark on their body that can be used to buy and sell (It will functionlike the Mark of the Beast; Rev. 13:15-18). Twelve, on July 27, 2020, it was reportedthat a study of Black Lives Matter interviews and writings reveals a plan that does little to improve the lives of black people because it is mostly about destroying capitalism and life in the U.S. as we have known it (they are terrorists, not peaceful protestors). Thirteen, Grace Community Church inSun Valley, Cal., pastored by John MacArthur, has decided to disobey the Governor's restrictions on worship. The church expects the Governor to move against their church (persecute the church), and it would be good if people prayed forthem. Sadly, some politicians think Christians gathering in church is a threat, but people gathering to riot, loot, burn, and injurethe police are not a threat (depraved minds). Fourteen, on July 30, 2020, it wasreported that a lobby has been established in the Israeli Knesset to strengthen the sovereignty and presence of Jews on the Temple Mount. The group says they plan to push for Jews to have more rights on the Temple Mount, but many Jews and Christians know that theTemple will be rebuilt. Fifteen, a friend e-mailed a July16, 2020 document from the National Center for Biotechnology (part of the U.S. National Library of Medicine, a branch of the National Institutes of Health) titled "5G Technology and induction of coronavirus in skin cells." As I understand it, the authors of the article are saying 5G is the main cause of coronaviruses in biological cells. Sixteen, the next time you are thinkingabout buying a pair of tennis shoes, know that Nike shoes may be made by slave labor in China. Nike denies it, but at the same time, Nike is accusing the U.S. of mistreating minorities; it is being reported that China isenslaving people, selling slaves to companies; and at least one of those companies makes Nike shoes. Finally, the U.S. is under attack,freedom in the U.S. (and the world) is threatened by the globalist push to bring down Trump so they can have their world government up and running by 2030. In his book Shadowland, best-selling author Tom Horn calls it "a war for the soul of a nation and the future of the world." God didn't give the U.S. a polished politician with a forked-tongue and decades of experience to oppose Satan's powerful globalistpuppets. God gave the U.S. a rough and tumble, non-politician with no experience in double-speak and ear-tickling words to oppose Satan'spowerful globalist minions. If the globalists succeed in bringing Trump down, we will never get back the America we knew. One reason why God revealed these signs is that He wants people to accept Jesus before the Rapture so they will not have to gothrough the Tribulation Period. God reveals the future to His servants the prophets before He acts, and there is good reason to believe that He is now revealingevents that are soon to come (Amos 3:7). On July 27, 2020, Dr. Franklin Graham posted this message on Facebook, "I would encourage every person who loves this countryto pray and to turn out by the millions to vote. Don't just watch the news and be depressed or shake your head about what's going on-stand up for America! Vote for leaders who love this country, defend the Constitution, and who support law and order. Mostimportantly, pray and ask for God's mercy and help for our nation." Prophecy Plus Ministries, Inc.
