All Things Everywhere All At Once????

 All Things Everywhere All At Once???? – A.V. Rauf - https://bibleprophecyfortoday.com/2023/03/18/everything-everywhere-all-at-once/ As we head towards the end of the first quarter of the year 2023 A.D., seasons are changing and we are ready for the Spring. (I’m ready for the summer as it is 14 degreesoutside as I am writing this!!!) The title of this post is not referencing a movie that just recently won Best Picture of the Year at the Oscars but rather it is referring to current events in regards to the end times and how they are occurring at breakneckspeed. It is apparent that the events that are to unfold in this next quarter, leading to the summer may very well indeed make this year a pivotal year. I am not even sure where to begin but I will highlight several situations that clearly need to be monitored and prayed about: In lieu of the current war in Ukraine, the International Criminal court in Hague has issued an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin for war crimes. Putin is the third servingpresident to be the target of an ICC arrest warrant. Omar al-Bashir of Sudan and Muammar Gaddafi of Libya were the other two. This move would obligate the 123 member states of the ICC to arrest Putin and transfer him to The Hague for trial if he were to setfoot on their territory. I am not fear mongering, rather simply stating facts. With Putin poised to send an additional 500,000 troops into Ukraine, how. NATO responds can be a potential catalyst for WW3. How this all pertains to the War of Ezekiel 38-39 remainsto be seen. Speaking of arrests, it is now being reported that there may be an arrest made of former president Donald Trump. Whether this is related to alleged charges over hush moneyto an adult entertainment celebrity remains to be seen. Keep in mind that Trump is a candidate for the Republican Party nomination for next year’s presidential election. In the history of the U.S., no U.S. president has ever faced criminal charges, while inor out of office. How the country reacts to this if it happens and whether or not it may lead to some sort of civil arrest (remember January 6th? ) remains to be seen. Tension between Iran and Israel (two key participants of the war of Ezekiel 38-39) has reached a fever pitch. For decades, Israel has considered the Islamic Republic of Iranto be its chief adversary. Israel has fought Iranian proxies on two borders—a 34-day war with Hezbollah in Lebanon in 2006 and sporadic tensions with Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad since the 1990s.Over the last 10 years or so, Israel has been widely linkedto a least a dozen attacks—involving cyber, covert operations, and assassinations—on Iran’s nuclear program. Israel has reportedly penetrated deep into Iranian territory and its most secure facilities in two waves. The first wave, mainly cyberattacks and assassinations,was between 2010 and 2012 before the launch of nuclear diplomacy with Iran. The second began in 2018 and has included a Mossad raid, sabotage and an assassination. In May of 2022, just less then a year ago, for the first time, the Israeli Air Force conducted large-scale maneuvers simulating an attack on Iran’s nuclear sites.At an eventfor graduating Israeli Air Force pilots on Dec. 28, 2022, Defense Minister Benny Gantz addressed the graduates saying : “Israel has significantly increased its preparedness in recent years and is preparing for the possibility of an attack on Iran… You maycross the sky to the east in two or three years and take part in an attack on nuclear sites in Iran, for which we are preparing.” ( https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/israel/defense/1672240216-israel-s-dm-benny-gantz-hints-at-possibility-of-attack-on-iran ). Much more can be said, but the point here is that from an eschatological standpoint, this is not a matter of “if,” rather it is a matter of “when.“ While all this is happening, it is now being the reported that the location of the Temple Ark of the Covenant is under the Temple Mount. The Temple Institute in Israel iseven publicly admitting that they know exactly where the Ark of the Covenant is on their own website! So why is this important? If it is indeed in a cave under the Temple Mount, and it will stay there until the time comes for it to be revealed…………..it willjust be a matter of time before Jewish leaders start conducting sacrifices. In fact, the Temple Institute says that such offerings could actually begin before the building of the temple itself. (https://templeinstitute.org/frequently-asked-questions/ ). Do keep in mind that the red heifer(s) that are needed to be used in the temple rituals as of today are apparently still kosher and will be ready for slaughter this year if needed. There are five of them. I referred to this in a previous post a few monthsago.(https://bibleprophecyfortoday.com/2022/09/18/another-harbinger-to-the-building-of-the-third-temple-arrival-of-the-red-heifers/) Keep in mind that the new Israeli government is the first religious government in the history of the modern state of Israel. Given the various political parties in Israel today, this is the exact coalition you would expect to be in place for rebuilding theTemple and stewarding the nation as it enters the tribulation. It is not a coincidence that there have been recent protests against this very government in Israel which is much more conservative then ts predecessors. ( https://www.vox.com/world-politics/23629744/why-israelis-protesting-netanyahu-far-right-government-judiciary-overhaul) Care for more???? About a month from now, Space X will be ready launch their much awaited Starship. With SpaceX, CEO Elon Musk is pushing his dreams to build a city on Mars.What this upcoming Starship rocket test means for the future of space travel and humanity itself remains to be seen. That being said, just a few days ago Pentagon officials stated that an alien mothership could indeed be surveying the earth! American officials have been developing unitsto investigate strange phenomena for quite some time. The Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) launched in July 2022, track unidentified objects near and on Earth. In 2005, Pan-STARRS telescopes were created for NASA to locate 90 percentof objects in Earth’s orbit larger than 140 meters — which is how the potential alien mothership was said to be detected. (https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/military-culture/2023/03/09/pentagon-ufo-chief-says-alien-mothership-in-our-solar-system-possible/) I explain the UFO/UAP phenomena in my book Bible Prophecy for Today: Examining Current Events from through the lease of Scriptures–see link on the top right of page)) I am convinced that when the Rapture of the Church occurs, this phenomenon will be the secular explanation for the mass “disappearance” of many. Keep in mind that countriesin which Christians are persecuted, won’t be severely affected by the Rapture at all, because in these countries many Christians don’t have important political, societal, military and business positions. The Western nations in which Christians face no or alittle persecution, will be significantly weakened by the Rapture. Remember the title of this post. It seems as if everything everywhere is indeed beginning to come to fruition at once. I haven’t even covered the current crisis between China and Taiwan, the aftermath largest Middle East earthquake in at least 83 years that has shaken the whole Middle Eastand thousands of aftershocks that have continued across the region ten (btw another 6.9 magnitude occurred today in Ecuador!) , tensions between India and Pakistan again beginning to escalate, the continued moral decay of society, the Federal Reserve Banklaunching Phase One of the CBDC, which many perceive as the imminent globalist digital currency matrix beginning in July of 2023 ,the announcement by the Tri-Lateral Commission that 2023 is YEAR ONE of the New World Order (https://asia.nikkei.com/Politics/International-relations/Indo-Pacific/Trilateral-Commission-calls-2023-Year-One-of-new-world-order) ……………….and the list goes on and on. But remember this: this was all written in the Bible. The answer to all of this is in two words: Jesus Christ. So, in closing, the signs that are now emerging just in thelast month are absolutely ominous. They are growing exponentially more obvious and closer together the closer to “catching away” of the Body of Christ. The question now is, “Are you ready to go?” Or will you be one of the many left behind to experience thecoming Tribulation period? If there was ever a “time” that you needed to pay attention and make sure you are one of those who shall be counted among those who escape, it is now. “Time” is of the essence. Matthew 24:1-44–And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.2 And Jesus said unto them, Seeye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these thingsmust come to pass, but the end is not yet.7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.9 Then shall they deliveryou up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.15 When ye therefore shall see the abominationof desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.22 And except those days should be shortened,there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signsand wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.25 Behold, I have told you before.26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shallnot give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man comingin the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; Whenhis branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things befulfilled.35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of manbe.40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he wouldhave watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. I ask you to prayerfully look at these events and be like the Bereans of Acts 17:11: Acts 17:11–These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those thingswere so. Remember this: No Jesus NO Peace…KNOW Jesus…KNOW Peace!!! John 3:16–For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

We're watching a storm approach, and it's about to envelop the entire nation in chaotic conditions.If you think things are crazy now, just hang on to your halo...it's about to get a whole lot worse. Remember how we talked about CBDCs a few weeks ago, and lots of people in the comments said never, no way, and heck no? Well, unfortunately, it's being rolled out and soon. Of course, they're not calling it CBDCs. Not yet. It's under another name, and it's not quite a federal digital currency. I'm sure this, too, will be called a conspiracy theory, but the Federal Reserve is launching FedNow,an instant digital payment system. This in itself is not a Central Bank Digital Currency, but it puts into place the framework needed to make the idea a reality. FedNew will be launched in July, according to a press release from the Federal Reserve. What is FedNow? On March 15th, in the midst of the banking collapses, the Federal Reserve issued a press release detailing a new instant payment system that will be launched in July. Thatsystem is called FedNow. Here's what they said about it. The first week of April, the Federal Reserve will begin the formal certification of participants for launch of the service. Early adopters will complete a customer testingand certification program, informed by feedback from the FedNow Pilot Program, to prepare for sending live transactions through the system. Certification encompasses a comprehensive testing curriculum with defined expectations for operational readiness and network experience. In June, the Federal Reserve and certifiedparticipants will conduct production validation activities to confirm readiness for the July launch. "We couldn't be more excited about the forthcoming FedNow launch, which will enable every participating financial institution, the smallest to the largest and from all cornersof the country, to offer a modern instant payment solution," said Ken Montgomery, first vice president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and FedNow program executive. "With the launch drawing near, we urge financial institutions and their industry partnersto move full steam ahead with preparations to join the FedNow Service." Many early adopters have declared their intent to begin using the service in July, including a diverse mix of financial institutions of all sizes, the largest processors,and the U.S. Treasury. This has all the hallmarks of a government strategy. First, they offer it as a "convenience" or a "safety measure." Lots of people will jump on board in order to take advantageof this. Of course, we've heard this song before. Next, it will be pushed harder, and those who don't adopt it will be mocked, thought of as backward, and treated with suspicion. After that, it'll be darn near impossibleto do anything without it. Sound familiar? The Federal Reserve Banks are developing the FedNow Service to facilitate nationwide reach of instant payment services by financial institutions -- regardless of size or geographiclocation -- around the clock, every day of the year. Through financial institutions participating in the FedNow Service, businesses and individuals will be able to send and receive instant payments at any time of day, and recipientswill have full access to funds immediately, giving them greater flexibility to manage their money and make time-sensitive payments. Access will be provided through the Federal Reserve's FedLine(r) network, which serves more than 10,000 financial institutionsdirectly or through their agents. You can find more of the Fed's sales pitch at FedNowExplorer.org. This is NOT the digital dollar...yet. So let me be perfectly clear. This, in itself, is not the implementation of CBDCs. Instead, it's the payment network needed to implement CBDCs. An infrastructure, in a mannerof speaking. There's a clear benefit to the system that will make people want to participate, especially those who do business online or who transfer large amounts of money. Who wouldn'twant the proceeds from the sale of their home to be instantly available? This is just the system that allows payments to be made via a federal government network using existing banks. FedNow could quickly lead to FedCoin and it wouldn't take mucheffort at all. There is a precedent for federal payment networks turning into federal digital currency. Just last week, Marie wrote about the digital identity service that is funded by the US and is being used in Ukraine. It's a mechanism of digital control, plain and simple,being portrayed as something to make the lives of Ukrainians easier. But that's not the only digital program out there we need to be concerned about as a precedent. A writer for the website BeinCrypto reported several other incidences thatcould show us our future: According to global data, the instant payments ecosystem was valued at $100 trillion in 2021. And Asian countries like India and China are leading the sector, with the U.S.slightly late to join the club. India employs a payment infrastructure based on the Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) and Unified Payment Interface (UPI) to offer instant payment services to customers andmerchants. Global data show India is the most active market, with transaction volume hitting $39.8 billion in 2021. With that, India has expanded its e-rupee pilot as part of its CBDC trials. China, which ranks second in that category, has widely used Alipay and WeChat for instant mobile payments. The nation has also pushed to adopt a digital yuan as its centrally-backeddigital currency. So, to be clear...they instituted instant payment services, then a federal digital currency followed shortly thereafter. Infrastructure. Introduction. It's a pattern. Here's what The Department of the Treasury says about CBDCs. The Department of the Treasury has a "CBDC Working Group" exploring the feasibility of the project. It is coming. And they're being completely open about it. Here's some informationfrom the Dept. of Treasury website: CBDC is one of several options for upgrading the legacy capabilities of central bank money. Another is real time payment systems: The Federal Reserve has indicated that itexpects to launch the FedNow Service this year, which will be designed to allow for near-instantaneous retail payments on a 24x7x365 basis, using an existing form of central bank money (i.e., central bank reserves) as an interbank settlement asset. In contrast,a CBDC would involve both a new form of central bank money and, potentially, a new set of payment rails. Both real time payment systems and CBDCs present opportunities to build a more efficient, competitive, and inclusive U.S. payment system. In the United States, policymakers are continuing to deliberate about whether to have a CBDC, and if so, what form it would take. The Fed has also emphasized that it wouldonly issue a CBDC with the support of the executive branch and Congress, and more broadly the public. Even as policy deliberations continue, the Fed is conducting technology research and experimentation to inform design choices so that it is positioned toissue a CBDC if it were determined to be in the national interest. The entire article bears reading. You will have no further doubt this is the plan when you do. They also mentioned that this will help us to do business with other countries that have CBDCs. ...jurisdictions around the world are exploring CBDCs. According to the Atlantic Council's tracker, 114 countries, representing over 95 percent of global GDP, are exploringCBDC. 11 countries have fully launched CBDCs, while central banks in other major jurisdictions are researching and experimenting with CBDCs, with some at a fairly advanced stage. The Bank of England (BOE) and HM Treasury (HMT) recently published a consultationpaper assessing the case for a retail CBDC and outlining a proposed technological model. BOE and HMT now are entering the design phase of their work, estimated to take two to three years, after which the BOE and the UK government will decide whether to builda "digital pound." In addition, there are multiple cross-border CBDC pilots, which involve central banks, international organizations such as the Bank for International Settlements, and private financial institutions. Global currency, anyone? Here's what has to happen to make this widely accepted. The banking crisis of the past few weeks feels like part of the plan to me. While I know we had many poor economic decisions that have led us to this point, pulling the plugnow seems rather timely. To make CBDCs widely accepted and even welcome, a few things have to happen first. 1.) Cryptocurrency has to fail. Several of the banks involved in this crisis have been highly invested in crypto. Silvergate, which hasn't been mentioned as much, advertisesitself as having "industry-leading banking and payments solutions for innovative digital currency and fintech companies." The banking crisis is devastating cryptocurrency, which is one of the most anonymous and regulation-free payment methods in the modernworld. Anything outside of government control has to go. 2.) Inflation has to continue. Keeping the "value" of digital dollars stable would be a way to "fight inflation." Do you want to buy a box of mac and cheese for $3 cash? Orwould you rather pay 1 FedCoin instead? Making a FedCoin an option that "fights inflation" would get a lot of people to adopt it voluntarily. 3.) People have to be desperate. If your bank account was suddenly emptied and you had nothing left - no retirement fund, no savings, no checking, nothing - what would youagree to in order to restore it all? What if you were offered a bailout but it was in the form of a different kind of dollar - a CBDC to replace the dollars you lost, but that you can only use digitally? I'd say yes, and I think that most of us would. We'vegot bills to pay, we owe on our mortgages and our taxes, we need groceries, our kids have tuition due...hell, yes, we'd nearly all say "yes" no matter how grudgingly. If those three things happen, we're in a perfect position for CBDCs to be forced upon us. It could very likely turn into our only legal tender, as I've written before. Steve Forbes shares his rather terrifying thoughts on the potential abuses in a country based on CBDCs in the video below, calling it a "formula for tyranny." WATCH: https://youtu.be/SdIb9_I-kkA And if it's our only legal tender, we're looking at a cashless society and all the controls that such a thing allows. It would affect nearly every facet of our everyday lives,and every dime we spend would be subject to surveillance. The potential for abuse of power and lack of privacy is breathtaking. The government would literally hold a monopoly on money and financial transactions. Sounds like something right out of the Book of Revelation doesn't it? ----------------------------------- Evil Men and Seducers Generation � Terry James - https://terryjamesprophecyline.com/2023/03/19/evil-men-and-seducers-generation/ There�s perhaps no more profound indicator of where this generation stands on God�s prophetic timeline than the most pervasive ingredient of the spirit of the age. Jesus pointedto this ingredient as a specific signal believers are to be aware of when all other signals of His return to earth are in view. And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and ofthe end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. (Matthew 24:3�4) Paul the apostle spoke of this same ingredient that would permeate the general timeframe of Christ�s return: But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. (2 Timothy 3:13) The spirit of this wicked age drips with the satanic venom of deception. It is the same venom injected into mankind in the Garden of Eden when the serpent seduced Eve, thencaused Adam to believe the lie that he and Eve could be like God. Through today�s zeitgeist (spirit of the age) flows the same toxic, luciferian evil. Evil men and seducers, as anyone with the desire to know truth can attest, assault our eyes and ears every waking moment. Our culture is saturated with deceit at every level.The lies have become so blatant that they�ve numbed our senses as a generation, in many cases. For example, many can now be told�and believe, in some cases�that a man can become a woman, a girl can become a boy, men can become pregnant, and it�s no longer wrong foradults to engage in sexual acts with children. And there is less and less pushback to such monstrous upside-down thinking. The deception infects the very souls of mankind with a lie like the one the serpent whispered to Eve: �Yea, hath God said?� Satan thus is, during this time so near the endof the age, blatantly, through the woke insanity of his human minions, telling all who will listen that God�s order of creation is all wrong. Mankind can be his own god. He�and she (if those are the pronouns they choose)�can be other than the gender in whichthey were born. God is wrong. People can do what is right in their own eyes. We are lied to at every juncture by the government that was once said by Abraham Lincoln and the Constitution to be the government of, by, and for the people. In politicsand through bureaucratic manipulations, the reprobate mindset of Romans 1:28 is observably in full bloom. Proliferate spending has in effect bankrupted the US. Once elected to office, those who find themselves in charge of the tax dollars of the American people too often embracethe lobbying minions and their desire to increase their wealth and influence rather than tend to fiscal responsibility they owe the voters who put them in office. They, as is said, feather their own nests by selling their influence. As a result, over the years, we�ve come to a national debt that can never be resolved. And now it appears that the wicked leadership of the nation�and of the entire world that America�s dollar base influences�is intent on going to a digital form of currencyin order to somehow reset the economic fiasco they�ve created through electronic manipulation. This, as some like this writer views it, is actually deception by the father of lies. Satan, through his reprobate, though evil, genius, is maneuvering his humangoverning minions to set the stage, by instituting electronic funds and the digital way of doing business, for the Antichrist system of buying and selling through the 666 numbers-and-marks model of Revelation 13:16�18. Evil men and seducers are ramping up efforts to bring America down so the global order they want to build�the New World Order, as Pete Garcia�s and my book by the same namehas it�can proceed. The deception to get that process underway in earnest, I believe, can be understood through the so-called pandemic America and the world just endured. More and more, it alllooks to be a great lie by that father of lies, designed to bring about Satan�s coming man of sin and his regime of tyranny and the Tribulation. My friend Daymond Duck touched recently on this deception. Concerning deceit in the U.S. government and tracking everyone: on Feb. 28, 2023, in testimony before a House Select Subcommittee, Dr. Marty Makary, Professor at the JohnsHopkins School of Medicine, said, �The greatest perpetrator of misinformation during the (Covid) pandemic was the U.S. government.� Makary cited a long list of government false statements, an authoritative study that refuted some of them, experts that refuted some of them, and the report noted that therelease of Twitter Files verifies that the U.S. government deliberately tried to silence experts on many of the issues. It is important to understand that the government that was perpetrating false information wants to keep records on every U.S. citizen and control their life. (�Rejoice! TheEnd Is Near!� Daymond Duck, https://www.raptureready.com/2023/03/11/rejoice-by-daymond-duck/) The great deception by evil men and seducers all point to things of monumental importance: 1) The seven-year Tribulation is on the very cusp of engulfing this world of rebels against the God of Heaven. 2) Jesus Christ, the King of all kings, is readying to return and throw down Satan�s false Christ and his wicked kingdom. 3) For we who are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Rapture can (and, we are believing, will) very soon take Christians out of harm�s way to be with the Lord forever. Here, again, is how to be a part of that glorious moment. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heartman believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9�10) ----------------------------------
