Unprecedented Cooperation, Peace, and Stability

 Unprecedented Cooperation, Peace, and Stability - By Daymond Duck- https://www.raptureready.com/2023/09/30/unprecedented-cooperation-peace-and-stability-by-daymond-duck/ On Sept. 20, 2023, during a meeting between Russia’s Defense Minister and Iran’s Minister of Defense and Armed Forces, the Iranian minister said: •“Russia and Iran have developed to reach an unprecedented new level of cooperation and understanding.” •“Our relations in the fields of defense and security have attained unprecedented development over the past decade.” •“I have no doubt that our cooperation will lead to peace and stability on the world stage.” It would be wise to consider what God said along these lines more than 2,600 years ago. •In the latter years and latter days, Gog (the dictator) of the Land of Magog (Russia) will attack the re-established Jewish nation on the mountains of Israel (Ezek. 38:2,8, 15-16). •Persia (modern name is Iran) and others will cooperate (join) with Russia (Ezek. 38:5). •Russia will be a guard (a defender) of Iran and the others (Ezek. 38:7). •God will destroy Russia, Iran, and their allies (Ezek. 38:18-39:5). Jesus said there will be wars and rumors of wars (not peace and stability) on earth until His Second Coming (Matt. 24:3-8). After His Second Coming, there will be 1,000 years of peace, justice, and stability on earth (Rev. 20:1-6). The Word of God (Bible) is unprecedented (not the words of wicked men). •It prophesied the unique and incredible virgin birth of Jesus hundreds of years before it happened. •It prophesied the crucifixion of Jesus hundreds of years before crucifixion came into being as a way of execution. •It prophesied the incredible resurrection of Jesus on the third day after his death hundreds of years before it happened. •It prophesied hundreds of historical events that have been verified to literally happen. •It mentions hundreds of other facts that archaeologists have proven to be true, and all of this is why the Bible is the best-selling book in the history of the world. The incredible prophecies in that unprecedented book (global government, cashless society, high-tech tracking all buying and selling, increase of knowledge with AI, cooperationbetween Russia and Iran in the latter years and latter days, etc.) are why many faithful students of Bible prophecy believe the Rapture will happen soon. Here are some recent events that seem to indicate that time is short. One, concerning the days of Lot, deceit, and censorship in themedical profession: on Sept. 18, 2023, it was reported that Britain’s General Medical Council (GMC) has told its employees to stop using the word “mother” and to use the word “parent” instead. To my knowledge, this is unprecedented. I do not think any other generation of medical professionals has found the word “mother” to be offensive to any group of people. Heather Welford, a member of a group called “With Woman,” said the “decision by the GMC to obscure the fact that only women have babies is ideologically driven, medicallyinaccurate, and unhelpful to women and babies.” Two, concerning corruption, the decline of America, and reducingthe population of the world: on Sept. 20, 2023, I read that some conservatives are calling the approaching fake Covid-19 variant the “election variant.” They contend that America has a fake president who got an unprecedented 80 million votes during the first fake Covid-19 variant, and he barely campaigned (another unprecedentedfact). Some conservatives believe Biben’s campaign got a big boost from fake mail-in votes, and Democrats want to do it again. As I understand it, to try to legalize another large fake mail-in vote in the upcoming 2024 U.S. presidential election, the FDA, CDC, WHO, Democrats, and others are beginningto push another “election variant” (fake pandemic, jabs that are supposed to work but don’t, masks that are supposed to protect you but don’t, fake media reports, fake science, etc.). How do we recognize the Covid-19 “election variant?” Know that a lot of yard signs and political ads on TV are good indications that the “election variant” has arrived, and expect it to happen before major elections every 2-4years from now on until the Rapture. (More:On Sept. 26, 2023, it was reported that scientists do not know what the next virus to attack world citizens will be, so the UK Health and Security Agency has started calling it “Disease X.” They are already working on a vaccine for “Disease X” and the U.S.,and several other nations have pledged $1.5 billion to fund the research.) Three, on Sept. 26, 2023, it was reported that Fla. Gov. Ron DeSantistold an ABC News interviewer he will oppose funding for Covid jabs if he is elected president. DeSantis said he wouldn’t fund them because “The Covid jabs have been linked to myocarditis, miscarriage, and numerous other consequences.” Four, concerning deceit and corruption in America: on Sept. 19,2023, it was reported that Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway said, “It’s just very interesting to hear all of this defense of democracy when the current strategy of the Democrat Party is to actually imprison their top political opponent andthen try to keep American people from being able to vote for the candidate of their choice. That is a direct attack on free and fair elections. That is an attack on democracy.”  Five, concerning a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in theU.S.: on Sept. 20, 2023, the House Financial Services Committee voted to prevent the U.S. Federal Reserve from issuing a CBDC, prohibit the U.S. Sec. of the Treasury from telling the Board of Governors to issue one, and it says that the U.S. cannot use a CBDCwithout congressional approval. Do not make the mistake of thinking that CBDCs are dead in the U.S. Notice that this was a vote in a House committee. As I understand it, this means very little unless the U.S. House of Representatives passes it, and even if it does, Pres. Biden is likely to veto it. Six, concerning a covenant of peace with many (see Dan. 9:27)in the Middle East: on Sept. 22, 2023, Israeli Prime Min. Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at the UN General Assembly Meeting in NY City. Among other things, Netanyahu said the world must choose between two visions of the future. •One vision is a world with Israel, Saudi Arabia, many Arab and Muslim nations, and world leaders cooperating to bring “dramatic new blessings of peace and prosperity to allmankind.” •The other vision is Iran and the Palestinians rejecting peace, world leaders doing nothing to stop Iran’s efforts to acquire nuclear weapons, with the result being an unimaginableand catastrophic war. Using Scripture, Netanyahu told world leaders Moses presented the children of Israel with a choice when they entered the Promised Land. They could obey God and be blessedor disobey God and be cursed. Then, Netanyahu told the world leaders they must choose between a blessing or a curse (a blessing of peace, prosperity and hope, or a curse of horrific war and terrorism). (My opinion:God reveals what He intends to do before He does it. As I see it, Netanyahu—under the influence of God—told a gathering of world leaders at the UN it is decision time for the world. They can choose to be blessed by God by choosing to bless Israel, or theycan choose to be cursed by God by choosing to curse Israel… Based on my understanding of the prophetic Scriptures and what has been happening, Russia, Iran and others will choose the curse, start a war called the Battle of Gog andMagog, and lose. The other leaders and nations mentioned above will choose to require concessions from Israel—divide the Promised Land, etc.—that God warned them not to do, they will get a covenant with many and declare that they have achieved peace and safety,but they will come under a curse called the Tribulation period; Amos 3:7; Gen. 12:1-3; Ezek. 38-39; Joel 3:2; I Thess. 5:3. This sequence of events, in my opinion, might not be 100% correct, but the Word of God must be fulfilled as written.) (More: On Sept. 22, 2023, Israel’s Foreign Minister said he hasbeen meeting with other Muslim countries, and he believes six or seven of them will normalize relations with Israel if Saudi Arabia does.) Seven, concerning corruption in the White House, lying to theAmerican people, and the decline of America: on Sept. 21, 2023, it was reported that razor wire had been installed on the U.S.-Mexico border to halt mass illegal immigration at Eagle Pass, TX, and the Biden administration cut the wire to let thousands of peoplethrough. Other things as I remember them are: •Texas put a floating barrier in the river between the U.S. and Mexico, and the Biden administration sued Texas to have the barrier removed. •The Biden administration opened some of the gates in the section of wall that Trump built and welded them open so they could not be closed back. •The state of Arizona used cargo containers to block off some of the border there, and the Biden administration forced the state to remove the containers. •Trump bought several million dollars of wall-building material that had not been used when Biden took over. The Senate eventually voted for Biden to use the materials tobuild sections of wall or give the materials to the states and let them build more wall. Before the bill got voted on in the House, Biden started selling the material for pennies on the dollar. It is a proven fact that drug traffickers, sex traffickers, spies, and others are coming across our border, but Biden and his people tell us the border is secure. If they are lying about this, what else are they lying about? (More:On Sept. 24, 2023, it was reported that the U.S. Border Patrol apprehended 304,162 people in August who crossed the border illegally. 304,162 illegal aliens in one month is unprecedented, but Biden and his people say his policy is working. If his policy isto damage or weaken the U.S., it probably is working. By the way, a different report said the refugee shelters are full, and children are sleeping on the streets because there is no place for them to go.) (More: On Sept. 24, 2023, it was reported that there are about150 different gangs in the Mexican drug cartels with a total of about 175,000 members, and their membership is constantly growing. They are establishing gangs in the U.S., and Biden is aiding them by keeping our border open.) Eight, about one month ago, I wrote the following: •Concerning the Antichrist confirming (strengthening) a seven-year covenant that will begin the Tribulation Period (Dan. 9:27), it is looking more and more like that is shapingup. •For one thing, UN Sec. Gen. Guterres has scheduled a meeting for Sept. 18-19 to push world leaders to commit to “seven years of accelerated, sustained, and transformativeaction, both nationally and internationally, to deliver on the promise of the SDGs” (Sustainable Development Goals that are in essence the creation of a world government). •In my words, Guterres wants world leaders to agree (to make a covenant) to speed up the development of a world government by making more and faster changes over the nextseven years. •Understand that the UN voting to commit to bringing in a world government in seven years is one thing, and the Antichrist confirming (or strengthening) an existing seven-yearcovenant is another thing. The UN can vote for it in Sept., but the Antichrist can sign it any time during the seven years or later. A few readers have asked what happened at the Sept. 18-19 UN meeting. On Sept. 25, 2023, Michael Snyder (highly respected author, frequent guest on major radio and TV shows, etc.) reported that: •The SDG goals are “essentially a blueprint for how the globalists want the world to be run.” •World leaders pledged to do “whatever is necessary to meet those goals on time.” •World leaders really do intend to implement the SDGs” by the time the UN General Assembly convenes in September 2030.” •They are calling the next seven years “a new phase of accelerated progress.” •“Extreme measures will soon be implemented all over the world.” Here is a link to the article. https://www.prophecynewswatch.com/article.cfm?recent_news_id=6381 Nine, on Sept. 26, 2023, it was reported that Fla. Gov. Ron DeSantistold an ABC News interviewer he will oppose funding for Covid jabs if he is elected president. DeSantis said he wouldn’t fund them because “The Covid jabs have been linked to myocarditis, miscarriage, and numerous other consequences.” Ten, the book of Revelation mentions six sins that people willnot repent of during the Tribulation Period (witchcraft or Satan worship, idolatry, murder, sorcery, sexual immorality, and thefts; Rev. 9:20-21). On Sept. 26, 2023, it was reported that CVS announced that it will continue to close stores (300 in 2022, 300 in 2023, and 300 in 2024) because of theft. This is on top of Target’s recent announcement that it will close 9 stores for the same reason. FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born witha sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6). 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
