The Spirit of Antichrist in 2024

 The Spirit of Antichrist in 2024 – Randy Nettles - https://www.rev310.net/post/the-spirit-of-antichrist-in-2024 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spiritof God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming,and is now already in the world. You are of God, little children, and have overcome them because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of the world. Therefore they speak as ofthe world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this, we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. (1 John 4:1-6). On July 27, 2020, my article The 30330 Man (rev310.net) was posted on rev310.net. Three months later (October 20, 2020) I collaborated with Pete Garcia, and the article entitledThe Spirit of Antichrist in 2020 (rev310.net) was posted. This article is a review of these previous articles, as well as an update on events that have transpired since then. Pete wrote, “Well, it is not often that I would openly agree with the Chinese Zodiac, but 2020 certainly has been the Year of the Rat. Certain years have stood out in humanhistory as being the worst years on record. Certainly, the year of Noah’s Flood (1656 Anno Mundi) should take the record as THE worst year. However, if you were a Creation-denying, godless heathen, you would probably relegate that honor to the year 536AD.In recent history, we have the years 1918 (Spanish Flu outbreak), 1929 (Great Depression), and 2001 (9/11) as coming in the top ten of all around, terrible years to live through. That was, until 2020. Those were nothing compared to 2020. So far this year, we have been treated to: COVID-19(84), a faux presidential impeachment, mandatory lockdowns, forced economic shutdown,murder hornets, racial conflict, rampant rioting and looting, tolerance of the anarchists and Marxist violence by progressive politicians and the media, the hyper-sensationalism by the media to ramp up hysteria, the normalization of pedophilia by California,unchecked Trump Derangement Syndrome, Beirut explosions, massive wildfires, 10 hurricanes (thus far), state-sanctioned mail-in ballot fraud, and a potential civil war centering around one of the most contentious elections since Abraham Lincoln. And we stillhave two months left in this year.” Since this article was posted in October 2020, the events of November and December of that year aren’t mentioned. The U.S. held the presidential election on November 3, 2020,with the Democratic candidate Joe Biden winning. Kamala Harris was chosen as vice president. “The first Americans were vaccinated against the coronavirus Dec. 14 after the US Food and Drug Administration approved the emergency use of Pfizer’s COVID-19 shoton Dec. 11. The country’s second inoculation, developed by Moderna, was then given FDA approval a week later on Dec. 18 — with states receiving the jab Dec. 21. The arrival of the two vaccines, which were developed in less than a year, was touted as one ofthe greatest scientific accomplishments in US history.” {1} Since these events, the divisiveness of the nation and the world has happened so quickly that it begs the question as to the nature of the rapidity at which it is occurring.Underlying the societal and global divide — of which politics, religion, governmental philosophies, economics, etc., reside — is the spiritual component. the Apostle Paul warned us that in the last days, perilous times would come (2 Timothy 3:1) and that ourbattles would not be with people, but with the forces of darkness. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickednessin the heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12). Still, the speed and intensity of these perilous times are unnerving. It is as if the world’s population has become unwitting recipients of massive psychological-spiritualwarfare operations on a global level. Perhaps the reason for this is that Satan knows his time is short, and he is readying his demonic forces to act in preparation for the impending great separation (the Rapture of the Church). He knows it could happen atany moment; thus, he is working quickly to prepare the world for what comes after the Restrainer has been removed. I believe 2020 was the year the spirit of Antichrist, working through both human and demonic agents, came “out of the closet,” so to speak, and began working in earnest todestroy America and set up their new world order or global government. They are now in the stage where they don’t care if the populace knows their evil plans because they control the government, media, academia, and the financial sector. The world’s elites(the rich and powerful) control the narrative. They are capable of manufacturing crises and wars and then dictating to the mainstream media what misinformation to feed to the masses. The number 2020 can be fragmented into the number 20 (doubled) and two of its divisors are the numbers, 2 and 10 (2 x 10 = 20). The number two represents division, opposition,enmity, and oppression. “Two is the first number by which we can divide another, and therefore in all its uses, we may trace this fundamental idea or division or difference. Where there are two people, ideas, or acts concerned, they can be either in unityor in opposition to one another. Where man is concerned, the number 2 testifies of his fall more often than not, for that difference implies opposition, enmity, and oppression.” {2} The number 10 signifies completeness and the perfection of Divine order. “Entire cycles are complete with the number 10. Noah completed the antediluvian age in the 10th generation.The 10 commandments contain all that is necessary for the law to be complete. The Lord’s Prayer is completed in 10 clauses. The 10 plagues were representative of the complete circle of God’s judgment on Egypt. The tithes of 10% represent the whole of whatwas due from man to God as marking and recognizing God’s claim on the whole.” {3} Therefore, the number 20 is associated with the perfection of division or separation. Some examples of the number 20 include the following: Abram was the 20th generation ofAdam and was separated from his family when he moved to Canaan. Jacob spent 20 years working for his father-in-law, Laban, and was separated from his father and mother. His wages for these 20 years were marriage to Laban’s two daughters, Rachel and Leah, andhis livestock. Joseph’s brothers sold him for 20 shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt. Thus he was separated from his family. No one (including the Levite family of Moses, Aaron, and Miriam) who was 20 years of age or older when they started the journey would survive to enter the Promised Land exceptfor Caleb and Joshua, the two faithful scouts of Israel who trusted and believed in God. Their faith and reward is a prophetic type of the Rapture of the saints (Church), where all believers in Christ will enter their new home in the Promised Land of Heaven(the New Jerusalem). 20 was the age of the men of Israel when they were able to serve in the army during the time of Moses and Joshua. At this time, they were separated from their family. Duringthe time of the Judges, the Israelites spent 20 years being oppressed by the King of Canaan due to their apostasy against the Lord. Samson led Israel for 20 years, in the days of the Philistines, attempting to separate his people from their oppression. TheArk of the Covenant was separated from the Israelites for 20 years, for it remained at Kiriath Jearim. These are just a few examples of the number 20 and its Biblical significance. With the number 2020, the duplication of 20 means it is important, such as “verily, verily” or “woe, woe.” In my 2020 article entitled The 30330 Man, I discussed how Joe Biden, at the end of the Democratic presidential debate (on July 31, 2019), told the viewers to “go to Joe 30330” to support him. I then speculated on why this particular number (and the fragment numbers 3, 30, and 33) was used. We know old Joe didn’t think this number up by himself as he doesn’t think very clearly these days. I believe powers and principalities are operatingbehind the scenes of government officials and the new world order elites. In 2020, I received several emails informing me of a fact regarding this number that I was not aware of, and which had a significant relationship with the article itself.This fact comes in the way of a mathematical equation: 2020/666 = 3.0330. 666 is the number for the Antichrist, as 6 is the number for man. The number 3 denotes divine perfection or completion, so the three repetitive sixes represent man attempting to be Divineor God. 30330 is the precursor of 666. It is the number for the spirit of Antichrist that comes before the lawless man himself, the Antichrist. The number 30330, in my opinion, represents the human and demonic forces working behind the scenes (and out in the open these days) to create a one-world government, religion,and economy. These demonic powers are paving the way for a one-world government, which in turn will pave the way for the Antichrist. Numbers matter to these evil beings, both human and demonic. The number 30 represents the U.N.’s Agenda 2030, and 33 symbolizesthe occult or supernatural. See www.cuttingedge.org/news/n1766.cfm . The number 33 = 11 x 3. The number 11 represents disorder, disorganization, and division. The number 3 represents divine perfection in the Bible. The Antichrist will be the11th king of the new world order according to Daniel 7:24. He will be aided by Satan and the false prophet. Together they will be the unholy three or trinity. The Antichrist will not only “be against” Christ but will attempt to be the Jews and the world’sMessiah (Christ). Under his rule, the world will only know disorder, disorganization, division, and death. Freemasonry and the occult have hijacked the true meaning of the number 33, which represents Jesus and His divine knowledge. They believe man can attain supernatural knowledgeand abilities by his own power or by studying and mastering esoteric beliefs and hidden knowledge such as witchcraft, sorcery, astrology, and numerology (non-biblical). In Freemasonry, the number 33 is often referred to as the “Master Mason Number.” This numberis considered to be special as it is the highest degree attainable in Freemasonry and therefore represents a much higher level of knowledge and understanding. During the first advent, Jesus, as the Son of God, had divine knowledge and abilities that were given to him by the Father and the Holy Spirit. The Bible records that thenumbers 3 and 33 (and 30 to a lesser degree) are associated with Jesus. Jesus started his ministry at 33 years of age (some say 30) and was crucified in AD 33. In the year AD 33, at 3 PM Israel time, there was darkness in the land of Israel for 3 hours, afterwhich Jesus uttered his last 3 words – “It is finished.” Mankind’s salvation was now secure and complete for all who put their trust and faith in Him. Three days later, as proof of Jesus’ deity, Jesus was resurrected from the grave and was seen and heard bymany. The word “firstfruits” is mentioned 33 times in the Bible (NKJV). Jesus Christ is the firstfruits of the dead. “But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruitsof those who have fallen asleep” (1 Corinthians 15:20). Jesus will one day return to set up His millennial kingdom, for He is King of kings and Lord of lords. The “kingdom of heaven” is mentioned 33 times in the Book of Matthew. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven” (Matthew 7:21). The “kingdom of God” is mentioned 33 times in the Book of Luke (NKJV). “So you also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdomof God is near” (Luke 21:31). 33 verses in the New Testament mention a “lamb” with most of them referring to “the Lamb” or “the Lamb of God.” Although 7 is the dominant number in the Book of Revelation,mentioned 58 times, the number 3 is mentioned quite often as well. “Three” is used 11 times, and “third” is used 22 times – for a total of 33 times. Yes, Jesus also represents division, as he testified: “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. For I have come to seta man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s enemies will be those of his own household. He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughtermore than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matthew 10:34-39). If Jesus’ first advent ended in AD 33, then it is possible He could return to the Earth (second advent) in 2033. I have written about this many times. The logic goes likethis: If Jesus was killed in 33 AD, and a thousand years is a day for the LORD (Psalm 94, 2 Peter 3:8), then two days for the Lord would be 2000 years or 2033 AD. The third witness would be Hosea 6:1-3, “Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he has torn,and he will heal us; he has smitten, and he will bind us up. After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning;and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.” Jesus’ first advent ended in AD 33 or approximately 4000 AM (anno mundi – from creation), which would be like “the fourth day” for the LORD. We are now in the year 2024, whichis 1991 years from 33 AD. This is nine years shy of 2000 years (“two days for the Lord”). The number 9 represents finality or judgment in the Bible. Does it seem plausible that in “the sixth day” (from creation), or 2033 AD, Jesus could return to the Earthto establish His millennial kingdom? The following hypothetical timeline is based on this theory. If the spirit of Antichrist began in earnest in 2020 (for Satan knows his time is short) and if Jesus were to return in 2033, then that would be 14 years (inclusive reckoning).The number 14 is a multiple of 7, and being double that number implies a double measure of spiritual perfection. Of course, Jesus was crucified on the 14th day of the first month. A good example of the significance of the number 14 is seen in Matthew’s genealogyof Jesus (from Abraham to Jesus) in which Matthew breaks the genealogy down into three groups of 14. From Abraham to David were 14 generations. Matthew’s first set of 14 generations is complete. However, the next two groups are “telescoped” (see Jesus'Family Tree:: By Randy Nettles - Rapture Ready) to accentuate the number 14 (2 x 7). Matthew’s second set is missing 3 Kings of Judah (Ahaziah, Joash, and Amaziah) thatshould be listed between Joram and Uzziah. Matthew’s third set is missing King Jehoiachin (Jehoiakim or Eliakim). There are probably many more names/ generations that aren’t listed from the time of the Babylonian exile until the time of Jesus, but Matthewmade his point (with his genealogy and Gospel book) that Jesus is the true King and Messiah of the Jews. Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament expectation that a son of David would reign on the throne of David forever (Psalm 132:11-18 and others), as Gabriel hadannounced to Mary (Luke 1:32-33). We have now, in 2024, had three years of Joe Biden’s presidency since he was sworn into office as the 46th president of the U.S. on January 20, 2021. There is no need forme to discuss the deteriorating condition of the country since he has taken office, as everyone is cognitive of the situation (except Joe Biden). I believe even the Democrats are aware of the decline and eventual ruination of the country even though they willnot admit it. They are willing to lie, cheat, and put politics ahead of the safety and security of their fellow citizens, just to remain in power. Some RHINO Republicans have the same moral compass. The following statistics are from Illegal border crossers totaling over 10 million since Biden's inauguration (msn.com), so I don’t know how accurate they are. “More than10 million people have been reported illegally entering the United States since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021, the greatest number in history and of any administration. They total more than the individual populations of 41 states. These statisticsexclude gotaway data, which CBP does not report publicly. The number of people illegally entering the country surged after Biden and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas halted many preexisting border securitypolicies, advanced sweeping parole and other policies to release the greatest number of illegal foreign nationals into the country, encouraged people from all over the world to use a phone app to enter the U.S., and facilitated U.S. entry application processesin foreign countries, among others.” On November 5, 2024, the next presidential election will take place, that is if a major disaster doesn’t take place between now and then and martial law is put into place.That could delay the election for some time or indefinitely. Almost everyone I know of expects some kind of terror attack/s to take place in the near future, as nobody in the government is vetting these illegal immigrants entering the country. Also, the moneythat the local, state, and federal governments are spending on these law-breakers is staggering and cannot be sustained for long before it completely bankrupts us. I expect lawlessness, corruption, apostasy, deception, lewdness, perversion, terrorism, wars and rumors of war, famines, pestilences, earthquakes, and demon possession tocontinue and become more prominent as the spirit of antichrist grows stronger and stronger throughout the next three years of 2024-2026. The two-digit numeric fragments of 2024 are 20 and 24. We know 20 represents great division. The number 24 is 12 doubled. The number 12 represents the perfection of governmentor anything that has to do with “rule.” There are 12 signs of the zodiac, 12 hours in a day, 12 hours in a night, 12 children (sons) of Israel, 12 apostles of Jesus, etc. Genesis 12 describes Abram and his household entering the Promised Land. God appearsto him and promises the land to Abram’s descendants. Revelation 12 describes Israel at the mid-point of the Tribulation (start of the Great Tribulation) when they are fleeing the land because of the persecution of the Antichrist. The Great Tribulation is describedin Matthew 24:15-22. So, the number 24 is a double dose of government rule. 2024 is not just an election year (for the U.S.), it is the election year. “Globally, more voters than ever in history will head to the polls as at least 64 countries (plusthe European Union)—representing a combined population of about 49% of the people in the world—are meant to hold national elections, the results of which, for many, will prove consequential for years to come.” {4} There were 24 courses of priests in the earthly Temple, which were formed on the “pattern of things in the heavens.” In Revelation 4:4 and 10-11, we are introduced to the24 elders around the throne of God. The 24 elders represent the raptured saints from all ages since the Church was conceived on Pentecost in the first century. This scene in heaven is after John was ‘raptured’ into heaven in Rev. 4:1. The elders are wearingwhite robes and have crowns of gold on their heads. I believe this gathering takes place after the Bema seat judgment of Jesus Christ as they are seen casting their crowns before the Lord. I believe the year 2024 represents a division of government or rule. Whereas there could be many different governments forming around the world in 2024, perhaps the Kingdomof God, which includes redeemed mankind, will begin in heaven after the Rapture. Could this take place in 2024, as the numbers seem to imply? I don’t know, but it is certainly possible. The two-digit numeric fragments of 2025 are 20 and 25. Of course, 20 represents great division and 25 is the square of five (5 x 5). Five is the number for grace in the Bible.Therefore, in 2025 you have a multiplication of division and grace. It is also the sixth year from 2020 (which represents 30330/the strengthening of the spirit of Antichrist). 6 is the number for ‘man.’ So, in 2025, you have the division of man, yet graceabounds. I’ll let you be the judge of what this could represent. I believe the years 2024- 2026 are high watch days for the Rapture. As I wrote about in The Hepta Week Cycle For Six Millennia of Mankind (rev310.net), “From Elijah’s rapturein 854-853 BC (3114-3115 AM) to the “high watch day” years for the Rapture in 2024-2025 AD (5991-5992 AM), is 2877 years or 411 sevens. If you add the previous 79 sevens (from the children of Israel entering the Promised Land in 1406 BC to Elijah’s rapture)to 411 sevens you get 490 sevens or 3430 years. So, there are 490 sevens from when the children of Israel entered Canaan in 1406 BC to the “high watch day” date for the Rapture of the Church in 2024-2025 AD. 490 (7 x 7 x 10) is a very significant number biblically.” See SevenTimes More (rev310.net). As I mentioned before, if the Second Coming occurs in 2033 (“two days for the Lord” since 33 AD), then the seven-year Tribulation would start in 2026. The numerics of thenumber 2026 are interesting. The fragments are 20 and 26. 20 represents great division and the number 26 is 13 doubled. 13 is the number for rebellion, revolution, or apostasy. Isn’t it interesting that the unholy trinity, Satan, Antichrist, and the falseprophet, are introduced in chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation? Also numerically interesting is that the 144,000 Jewish Messianic witnesses are introduced in chapter 14, and Jesus returns to the earth with divine judgment and punishment for the unbelieversin chapter 19. The number 19 represents divine judgment in the Bible. See Judgmentand the Number 19 (rev310.net). 2026 will be the year of division and rebellion/apostasy. I believe it will be the year the Antichrist confirms the covenant with Israel and the many (Daniel 9:27) for sevenyears. The spirit of Antichrist (represented by the number 30330) will progress to the actual introduction of the 666 man, the Antichrist himself, and his right-hand man, the false prophet. The Antichrist will accumulate power until he becomes the 11th kingin the Ten Kings Kingdom. “The ten horns are ten kings who shall arise from this kingdom. And another shall rise after them; He shall be different from the first ones, And shall subdue three kings” (Daniel 7:24). The Antichrist will kill three of the kings at the mid-point of the seven-year Tribulation. After this, the other 7 kings will relinquish control of the kingdom to him andhe will become king of the world. I believe the seven Seal Judgments and the seven Trumpet Judgments will occur during the first 3.5 years of Daniel’s 70th week (the Tribulation). The Bowl judgments will occur during the final 3.5 years of the Tribulation. I believe Dr. Thomas Horn could be correct in his assessment that the third Trumpet judgment of Revelation 8:10, in which the “star” or asteroid called Wormwood falls uponthe Earth and poisons a third of the waters, is the asteroid called 99942 Apophis. This asteroid is a near-earth asteroid. Scientists say the closest known approach of Apophis to the Earth occurs on Friday, April 13, 2029, 21:46 UT, when it will pass Earthcloser than geosynchronous communication satellites, but will come no closer than 31,600 kilometers above Earth’s surface. However, Tom Horn and others think Apophis will hit the earth, and this will be the 3rd Trumpet judgment. Approximately one year later, in the spring of 2030, the Feast of Passover occurs in Israel. It will be very memorable as I believe the third temple will have been built bythen and the Antichrist will come to Jerusalem and fulfill Daniel 9:27 regarding stopping the daily sacrifices and setting up the abomination of desolation. The number 2030 is fragmented into the numbers 20 and 30. 20 denotes division, and 30 (being 3 x 10) denotes the perfection of Divine order, as in “marking the right moment.” 10 is the number for ordinal perfection and 2030 AD will be 10 years from 2020 AD (the start of 30330/spirit of Antichrist). The year 2030 will be “in the midst” of the 70th week of Daniel 9:27 and the start of the Great Tribulation (as mentioned in Matthew24:15-22) when the Antichrist commits the abomination of desolation in the newly built third temple. At this point, the Jews will have to flee into the wilderness as mentioned in Revelation 12:6-17. The global elites who are determined to bring in a New World Order seem fixated on the year 2030. The United Nations has set a deadline for achieving its Agenda 2030 for SustainableDevelopment by the year 2030. Agenda 2030 for S.D. has 17 goals for curing all of the world’s problems under the leadership of the unelected officials of the United Nations. All nations are required to follow their guidelines to bring about this new utopiaon Earth. All members will be required to submit to the authority of the one-world government of the United Nations. The United Nations initiated the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development in 2015. They had a fifteen-year plan and are now past the halfwaypoint of their deadline. In 2033, seven years after the Antichrist confirms the covenant with Israel (and 3.5 years after the Abomination of Desolation), Jesus will return to the earth and destroythe human and demonic forces that are aligned against Him and His chosen people. Jesus will return not as the Son of Man or the Lamb of God, but as the Man of War or the Son of God. His name is called the Word of God in Rev.19:13. The result is found in Revelation19:19-21. The fragment numbers of 2033 are 20, representing division, and 33, representing Jesus and the Kingdom of God. There will be much division and separation when Jesus returnsto the Earth. The Antichrist and the false prophet will be thrown alive into the Lake of Fire and Satan will be bound and sealed in the Abyss for 1000 years. The Gentile survivors of the Tribulation will be gathered together for a judgment described in Joel 3:1-3 and Matthew 25:31-46. It is commonly called the sheep and goat judgment.The sheep Gentiles (nations) are those who proved their faith by helping the Jews during the Tribulation. The goat Gentiles are those who aided the Antichrist in his quest to round up and kill the Jews during the Tribulation. The sheep and goat Gentiles willbe divided or separated from one another. The sheep Gentiles will enter the Millennium Kingdom while the goat Gentiles will be sent to Hell where they await the Great White Throne judgment at the second resurrection. There will also be a great coming together when Jesus returns to the Earth to establish His Kingdom. The Old Testament saints and the Tribulation saints will be resurrectedand translated at this time. These are the “friends of the bridegroom” (John 3:29) who will be invited to the wedding feast with which the Millennium will begin. “Then he said to me, Write: Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!And he said to me, These are the true sayings of God” (Revelation 19:9). “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come! And let him who hears say, Come! And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely” (Revelation 20:17). “He who testifies to these things says, Surely I am coming quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!” (Revelation 22:20).
