Converging Signs

Converging Signs - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2021/06/20/converging-signs-by-daymond-duck/ Many excellent Bible prophecy teachers believe there will be a convergence of the signs (all of them coming on the scene) at the end of the age. Here are some reasons to believe that is happening now. One, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: on June 7, 2021,U.S. Sec. of State Blinken said if Iran continues to violate its nuclear agreement, Iran could have enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon in a matter of weeks. If Israel follows through on its threat to prevent this, Israel could be forced to act very soon. (Note:On June 14, 2021, Amir Tsarfati said, “If nothing is done in the next month or so, Iran will be nuclear.”) Two, more on the Battle of Gog and Magog: in recent years, Israelhas launched hundreds of strikes against enemy targets in Syria, but on June 9, 2021, Israel launched one of its largest strikes ever. In the early morning hours, Israel struck several major Iranian targets (some sources say at least 6) almost simultaneously all over Syria. The attacks were followed by several hours of secondary explosions, indicating that out-of-control fires continued to destroy stored missiles, rockets, powder, etc. The attacks will probably get more intense as Iran gets closer to developing nuclear weapons. Three, concerning Israel: on June 13, 2021, the government ofPrime Min. Netanyahu ended, and the government of Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid began. The Bennett-Lapid government contains 8 political parties (some leftist, some non-religious, a minority of conservatives, and a group of Arabs with ties to the terroristgroup called the Muslim Brotherhood). Some conservative religious Jews say: •Israel’s new government is evil, dangerous, and it will end Zionism (the Jewish character of Israel; freedom of religion in Israel, etc.). •Bennett has lied because he promised during his campaign for office that he would not form a government with some of the political parties that hehas now joined forces with. •The Bennett-Lapid government will divide Israel because Arab leaders claim that Bennett and Lapid made concessions that will let them reclaim landin Israel, and Bennett and Lapid are not denying it. Prophecy teacher Amir Tsarfati said: •The new government is the beginning of the end of Israel as Christians have known it. •God is changing Israel for the worse. •Israel is no longer a democracy, no longer conservative, no longer united. •He believes the stage is being set for the fulfillment of major prophecies (perhaps Gog and Magog, a covenant, the Tribulation Period, an agreementto rebuild the Temple, etc.). Prophecy teacher J.D. Farag said: •Some suggest that the unprecedented four elections and now this new government may actually be the catalyst for the anti-Messiah to arrive on thescene under the banner of the vacuum of leadership. •Israel is ripe and ready for the Antichrist to come on the scene now like never before. Prime Min. Netanyahu said: •His party “will not rest until we get rid of this dangerous government.” •Bennett “is not a man who upholds his word. Neither are he and his ministers capable of standing up the U.S. and world nations – nor are they evenwilling to do so.” •“They are not fit to represent this country for a single day.” •“They must be celebrating in Tehran” (Iran). Israel needs the prayers and support of Christians as much as ever. Four, concerning world government: many highly respected Bibleprophecy teachers have long taught that U.S. power and influence must decline, and EU power and influence must increase. Pres. Biden is traveling overseas for separate meetings with the G-7, NATO, the EU, and Russia. Concerning Biden’s meeting with EU officials, it was reported that many EU officials believe it is time for the EU to start influencing U.S. policy instead of the U.S. influencingEU policy. According to one report, EU leaders plan to be less submissive to the U.S. and more likely to carve out a bigger role for the EU on the world stage. Five, also concerning the decline of America: on June 10, 2021,Rev. Michael Bresciani, editor of American Prophet, expressed his opinion about several issues that are well worth repeating. •Concerning whether black lives matter or not: Bresciani asked how can anyone say that black lives matter “when almost 4,000 black babies a day areaborted, and many thousands of black lives are lost yearly to black-on-black crime?” •Concerning worship of the Antichrist: Bresciani said, “Our children are being indoctrinated by liberalism, critical race theory, BLM, Antifa, communismand Godlessness – is it not all that hard to believe that they, our children, will be the ones who will soon worship this ‘beast’ scripture refers to as the antichrist? If you are thinking this is not possible – you are not thinking.” •Concerning the mixing of genes from humans with monkeys in China, the mixing of genes from humans with pigs in California, and the mixing of genesfrom humans with mice in Japan: Bresciani asked, “If God is displeased with the perverting of the sexes, what will his reaction be to the mixing of the species?” Bresciani believes these things are coming from depraved minds, and they signify that America is sinking into depravity. Six, Rev. Bresciani mentioned the world’s tallest moving statuecalled “The Giant.” “The Giant” is a 10-story tall digital art gallery with millions of pixels in the shape of a human, its head and arms move, it speaks and sings, changes its appearance everyhour to look like different famous people, and it will be displayed in 21 cities in 2021. Concerning this statue: Bresciani quotes what the Bible says about the statue of Antichrist. “And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image ofthe beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed” (Rev 13:15). Bresciani is not saying “The Giant” is the statue of the Antichrist, but he is saying that the creation of a statue that looks like the Antichrist and speaks is no longerin doubt. This writer believes that God is showing the world pictures or shadows of things in the Book of Revelation, and the coming fulfillment of those prophecies is not in doubt. Seven, in case anyone doubts that world leaders are in the processof establishing a world government, here is this writer’s understanding of some of what G-7 members agreed to in writing on June 13, 2021. •Work with the G-20 to explore ways to strengthen accountability, increase the tracking and allocation of global health security financing, and establisha Global Health Threats Council (use Covid-19 vaccinations to track people’s health, etc.). •Reform the World Trade Organization (WTO) to make it more resilient and responsive to the needs of global citizens (citizens of the world, not citizensof nations). •Push a global tax system to improve the global economy, the prosperity and wellbeing of all people (wealth redistribution), to uphold the commongood (world government) and our shared values (world religion). •Maintain its commitment to international cooperation, multilateralism and an open, resilient, rules-based world order (world government). •Tackle racism in all forms and violence and discrimination against LGBQTI+ populations (oppose those that hold Christian values). •Reaffirm its commitment to the Paris Climate Accords (an agreement that some say surrenders the sovereignty of nations) and strengthen and speedup its implementation (push nations to act faster and more aggressively; speed up world government; understand that the existing UN goal is to have it up and running by 2030 and the G-7 wants to speed things up). Vaccinate at least 60% of the global populationby 2022 and recognize that extensive immunization is a global public good (make forced vaccination a global law for the benefit of world government). •Ensure that Iran will never build a nuclear weapon (force a nation to obey world law). The Holy Spirit is the only One that can restrain the coming world government and world religion, but people need to know what is coming and truly accept Jesus as theirLord and Saviour before the globalists bring in their world government and world religion. Eight, for whatever it is worth, on June 14, 2021, PopulistPress reported, “The truth is coming out. I think we all expect this as Biden is going downhill fast!” “Trudeau [Pres. of France] overheard telling staffers he expects Kamala Harris to be President by the end of 2022 per W.H. official attending G7.” (This comment was originallyposted on Twitter on June 14, 2021, by political activist and news correspondent Jack Posobiec.) Nine, concerning vaccinations for Covid-19: •On June 14, 2021, LifeSiteNews reported that “The vaccine advisory committee of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will convenean emergency meeting this week to discuss heart-related side effects possibly linked to Covid-19 vaccines.” •The same report said, “Johnson & Johnson’s jab again was dragged into controversy last week when the FDA ordered the company to discard 60 millionCOVID-19 vaccine doses, citing contamination risks.” Finally, are you Rapture Ready? If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believethat Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this. duck_daymond@yahoo.com VISIT: PROPHECY WATCHER WEEKLY NEWS: HTTP://PROPHECY-WATCHER-WEEKLY-NEWS.BLOGSPOT.COM
