God wants you to know, WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS COME TO PASS (the prophecies from the Bible in this message), KNOW YE THAT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NIGH AT HAND-Lk 21:31. People have said the end was near many times in the past — true. But did you know the Bible shows us no prophecy of the latter days meant anything until Israel was reborn into a nation? Did you know God’s Word indicates to us a generation would not pass from Israel’s rebirth, till all be fulfilled (which includes the Rapture, the Tribulation, and Jesus Christ’s return)? We are not setting any dates, but are giving you a warning sign to watch and be ready. Many people have been preaching about the latter days of the end times in churches, on radio, TV, and through books. Some include Billy Graham, Hal Lindsey, Rex Humbard, Ray Brubaker, John Hagee, David Breese, Zola Levitt, Jack Van Impe, and Peter Lalonde, just to mention a few. Even people who do not know the Bible can sense something is about to happen. To those that understand the Bible, no explanation is needed. To those that are prideful, self-centered, that love this world, that despise God’s correction, that are contentious and seeking the praise of men rather than of God, no explanation is possible - ref Dan 12:4,10; Mt 24:37, 39. It has been said that it is virtually impossible for anyone to make 11 straight predictions, 2000 years into the future. There is only one chance in 8 x 10 to the 63rd power, or 80 with 63 zeros after it, that such a thing could be done. If such a set of predictions existed, it would have to be the Word of God. Consider; could you write eleven straight predictions that would take place 2000 years in the future, the year 4000 A.D.? Include the rebirth of a specific nation and exactly how it would be reborn. Include specific nations that would exist and certain nations that would be allied together, and the exact size of a nation’s army. Include what the people would be like in the year 4000. Include what the church would be like in those days. Include the names of actual cities that would exist and name certain crops and fruit trees that would exist. Do eleven straight prophecies, and be exactly correct on every single one. The Bible not only does this eleven times, but hundreds of times with absolute, perfect accuracy. If this is so, even the most skeptical person would have to agree that there is indeed a God, and the Bible has to be the Word of God. 2 Peter 1:20,21 "KNOWING THIS FIRST, THAT NO PROPHECY OF THE SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. FOR THE PROPHECY CAME NOT IN OLD TIME BY THE WILL OF MAN, BUT HOLY MEN OF GOD SPAKE AS THEY WERE MOVED BY THE HOLY GHOST. O FOOLS, AND SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN" -Lk 24:25. However, believing there is a God and acknowledging the Bible is the Word of God does not save a person. A person needs to repent of their sins and receive Jesus Christ as their only hope of being saved. This is done by faith. Let’s prove the Bible is true and that we are nearing the end of the last generation before Christ returns: 1. The Jewish people would be scattered worldwide; yet Israel would become a nation again-ref Isa 66:8; Mic 5:3. Prophecy fulfilled. This happened exactly as predicted on May 14, 1948. That’s 1 out of 1. Note: Israel was destroyed in approximately 721 B.C. and Judah about 135 years later. For the last 2500 years, approximately fourteen different peoples have possessed the land of Israel. Nevertheless, the Bible showed that the day would come when the nation of Israel would be reborn. The rebirth of Israel was a key sign, indicating we had entered a time period called the latter days. It was the beginning of a countdown leading to the Tribulation and culminating with the Battle of Armageddon and the return of Jesus immediately after. Along with the fulfillment of this crucial event are over 360 prophecies that would all come together, so we might recognize that the Tribulation is very close at hand. Twenty nine of them are listed here. Yet the Bible foretells that most people would not believe these things, despite the overwhelming evidence of the fulfillment of the signs from God’s Word and the incredible rebirth of Israel happening exactly as predicted. As people refused to believe the flood was coming in Noah’s time, so people today willingly choose to disregard the signs of the times. 2. Israel shall be brought forth in one day, at once-ref Isa 66:8. Prophecy fulfilled-May 14, 1948. That’s 2 out of 2. Note: On Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the U.N. approved a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. On the morning of May 14, 1948 (the last day of the British mandate), a meeting of the People’s Council took place in Israel to decide on the name of the state and to finalize the declaration. At exactly 4pm, the proclamation ceremony began at the Tel Aviv museum. The 979 Hebrew words of the Scroll of Independence were read. All stood, and the scroll was adopted. The notorious White Paper, issued by the British in 1930 restricting Jewish immigration, was declared null and void. Members of the People’s Council signed the proclamation. David Ben-Gurion rapped his gavel, declaring, "The State of Israel is established. This meeting is ended." Israel was brought forth as a nation in one day, at once. It happened exactly as predicted. At midnight, the British soldiers and high commissioner would leave. President Truman was swift in announcing U.S. recognition of Israel. The following morning, on May 15, Israel was under armed attack by the Egyptians, Syrians, Lebanese, Jordanians, and Iraqis. 3. The rebirth of Israel would happen after many days. It would occur a long time in the future after the prophecy was made and at the time the bible calls the latter days-Ezek 38:8. Prophecy fulfilled-May 14, 1948. That’s 3 out of 3. Note: It is estimated that this prophecy was made around 580 B.C. Approximately 2500 years later, in 1948, this prophecy was fulfilled. 4. Israel would be brought forth (or reborn) "out of the nations." - Ezek 38:8. Prophecy fulfilled-May 14, 1948. That’s 4 out of 4. Note: On Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the "United Nations" approved a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. This prophecy was perfectly fulfilled. Consider, for centuries the land of Israel had been occupied by many nations. Israel was "brought forth out of the nations" — the children of Israel from many nations were returning to their ancient homeland. 5. Israel must regain the city of Jerusalem -Joel 2:32; Isa 28:14; Ezek 22:19. This happened just as predicted in 1967. That’s 5 out of 5. The Bible clearly tells us that the world will come against the Holy Land of Israel ... as I watch our news this prophesy is coming to be true as we watch the Arab nations gain support and control of worlds policy and power ... Controlling UN votes and influence: Oil being the real God of this world ... America sees this commodity as a vital necessity to it’s economic survival and we all know it’s money/economy is far more important than Gods covenant with Israel; anyone that comes against Israel will be destroyed ... Will America be destroyed ...? (Zechariah 12:3) On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves." (Zechariah 14:2) "I will gather all the nations to Jerusalem to fight against it." These changes will continue until we see the stage set for the coming One World Government/dictatorship/Anti Christ. Never has there been a world government, however the elite are moving behind the scenes to produce a world government as quickly as possible. This could every well be manifest in the strengthening position / power of the United Nations / Nato World court etc ... All World controlling powers; who is in charge? As many of you know, I believe that America is the nation called Babylon in the Book of Revelations. She is a harlot who rides the head of the beast, which I think is likely the UN. She rides the beast, then for a reason not given, the beast turns on her and destroys her with fire. Interesting that the UN, even Europe, is beginning to threaten America over Middle East policy. Their "friend", who used to ride, and even lead them. This scenario seemed so impossible just a short time ago and with a world war now on the brink in the Middle East and the prophesied elimination of a few main powers by the weapons that everyone now has!!! With the new threat of worldwide terrorism, the world will be screaming for this type of change/order and control. The rising power and influence of the United Nations, NATO, World trade Organization, and the World Court are moving us quickly beyond the days of national sovereignty and individual nations to a time of One World Government ... Note: The Bible gives us two methods so we would know we are in the last generation. One is by Israel’s rebirth. The other, by a precise line of events that would all come together at one time. Israel was reborn on May 14th, 1948. The Bible indicates that from Israel’s rebirth a generation would not pass till all be fulfilled. A Jewish generation is figured from the age of 20 to 60 (1968) ... Most scholars think a generation is 40 years ... some suggest 52.4 years ... We are not setting any date, but it seems clear that we are living in that generation now. 6. The Christian church at the time of the end would be lukewarm, neither cold nor hot for Jesus. Prophecy fulfilled. That’s 6 out of 6. Note: God will spew them out. Many church leaders and people that call themselves Christians and are sure they are saved, will not be going to heaven. The Bible tells us — you have acquired wealth, but your true condition is wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked and you don’t know it - Rev 3:14-22. This is today’s church. Most churches preach very little Scripture, but lots of worldly stories. Many sing a great deal, but put very little emphasis on repentance, obeying, serving, and fearing God, the fruits of the Spirit, Bible prophecy, and studying your Bible faithfully every day. Many are only entertainment centers that teach what their members want to hear. People will not endure sound doctrine - 2 Tim 4:3. They turn away from the truth - 2 Tim 4:4. Many church members are so lukewarm or dead, they don’t even bring their Bibles with them to the house of God. Many ministers think this is the best church age ever, yet the Bible clearly shows it is the worst and most deceived. 7. The Bible gives us over 50 descriptions about the people at the time of the end. Here are some: A. Some would depart from the faith and go into devil worship -1 Tim 4:1. This is perfect. Reportedly in Great Britain alone, there are about 35,000 professing witches. B. People would have no conscience -1 Tim 4:1,2. C. People would mock about the last days and not believe -2 Pe 3:3; Jude 18. D. People would become lovers of themselves -2 Tim 3:1,2. Remember the TV commercials — "I do it for me"? E. People would be disobeying their parents -2 Tim 3:1,2. F. People would be grateful for nothing -2 Tim 3:1,2. G. Homosexuality would increase - Lk 17:28,30; ref Gen 19:5; Ro 1:24,26,27. H. People would be without self-control in sex -2 Tim 3:1,2,6; Rev 9:21, Lk 17:28,30; I. People would be untrustworthy, friends would betray friends -2 Tim 3:1-3. J. People would love pleasures more than God -2 Tim 3:1,2,4. This is true. Shall we go on a picnic, watch football, or sleep. Church? — we can go another time. Our American motto "In God we trust" has become a joke. Remember, these were all predicted centuries ago as part of the signs that we are at the time of the end. K. People would be taking drugs - Rev 9:21. The Greek word for sorceries, in Rev 9:21, means pharmaceuticals or drugs. God’s Word is 100% right on every one. That’s 7 out of 7. Note: Fifty years ago, many people never locked their doors at night. People could leave their keys in their car. Merchants could leave their merchandise on the sidewalk without guards, and there was no profanity on television, radio, or in the movies. One of the biggest problems in public school was gum chewing. Those days are long gone. 8. There would be weapons that could destroy the world - Mk 13:20; Rev 6:8; Rev 9:18; Zech 14:8,12. This prophecy is true. That’s 8 out of 8. Note: When in our history would anyone have ever thought this possible? It is estimated that the combined nuclear arsenals of the USA and Russia (as of the year 2000) could kill every living thing on earth 6 times over. 9. There would be an increase in earthquakes - Mt 24:2,3,7; Mk 13:8; Lk 21:11. This prophecy is correct. There are many times as many earthquakes now as there were in the first half of the twentieth century ... Earthquakes. Also like increasing birth pangs, Jesus also said there would be earthquakes in various places. From official records, scholars have researched the frequency of earthquakes and report an astonishing increase since -- yes, just the middle of last century, when Israel was reborn and all the other signs began. A recent study shows that in the 1940s there were only 51 earthquakes worldwide above Richter 6.0; in the 1950s, 475; the 1980s, 1,085; and in the 1990s, 1,514 (Matthew 24:7). (Source: Prophecy in the News magazine, October 1996, and the National Earthquake Information Center.) That’s 9 out of 9. Note: One might think as the earth settled over a period of time that earthquakes would decrease like ripples in the water. Yet the Bible indicates the opposite is true. And this trend continues to grow in intensity as a woman in Labour ... This will culminate during the Battle of Armageddon, AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS. At that time, there will be an earthquake that will shake the world. The cities of the nations will fall. Every island will flee away. 10. At the time of the end, there would be famines in various places. Food shortages would still exist in some places - Mt 24:3,4,7; ref Mk 13:8; Lk 21:11. This prophecy is accurate, and I believe will become much worse in the years ahead due to man made (Ozone depletion) climatic changes in our environment ... That’s 10 out of 10. Note: In this last generation, many are starving in the world. Poverty and crop failure, due to severe weather, drought, or insect infestation, are often a factor. Many people are born, live, and die on the streets, in alleyways, or railroad stations in some countries of the world. Multitudes live in mud houses with grass or palm branches for a roof or have no place to live at all. Billions have no electricity. In some nations, good drinking water is almost nonexistent. Senseless wars have left millions of people with no place to go. Refugee camps exist in many places where people live under conditions that are almost indescribable. They are hungry. One such person was asked, as I recall, "What would it take for you to consider yourself rich?" His reply was, "I would consider myself rich, if I could have a roof over my head that did not leak, and if I could know what it is like to go to bed at night with a full stomach." It has been estimated that 60,000,000 people a year die from starvation around the world. This prophecy is accurate. 11. The Gospel must be published in all the world - Mk 13:10. This prophecy is exact. That’s 11 out of 11. Note: In this last generation, to our knowledge, the Gospel is being published (or is about to be published) in the primary language of every nation of the world or "among all nations". Yet when this prophecy was made, the accomplishment of such a thing would have seemed impossible. There was no printing press or any means to do such a thing. In addition to this, the Gospel should be available by short-wave radio to listeners anywhere in the world. We have just reached the point that seemed impossible —11 perfect predictions — but of course with God nothing is impossible. 12. In the latter days when Israel was once again a nation, there would be a great military power to the extreme north of Israel in the land of Magog (which is modern-day Russia) - Ezek 38:2-4,8,15,16. Incredible. That’s 14 out of 14. Note: How could the Bible have foretold such a thing? It told the location of this nation, facts about its military, and even the time period it would come to pass. As was already said in Lk 24:25 - "O FOOLS, AND SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN". Certainly, at this point, even the biggest skeptic in the world can see that the Bible is true, there is a God, and we are very near the time of the end. Here are just a few more prophecies briefly given, out of the 365 that exist, regarding this latter day generation. 13. In the last days, people would be hoarding gold and silver. True. It began in the late 1970’s. And there are certain clues coming out recently that the US is going back to the gold standard of old ... a gold /precious metal based currency ...watch for this... Metals will again shine in the uncertainty of Global markets and the fear of World Government fiscal and financial policy... 14. There would be a nation to the far east of Israel, to the end of the earth. This nation would have an army of 200 million. This is absolutely astounding. It is estimated by some that the population of the entire world at the time of Christ was only about 200,000,000. How then could the Bible have ever told the location of a nation and given such a figure as the size of its army nearly 2000 years ago? China has boasted that they could field an army of this exact figure. China, the only nation whose army is now the "exact" size as the army which crosses the Euphrates River in the book of Revelations. The only nation that has ever, in the history of the world had an army as big as that army. The "kings of the east"? Revelation 9:16, "And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them." The current size of the army of China is this size exactly. 15. The currency in Israel at the time of the end would be the Shekel. The currency had been the Israeli pound until June 1980, when it was changed to the Shekel. The Bible is flawless. 16. There would be an economic alliance of the nations of the Old Roman Empire. It would have a military capability. This is a perfect description of the European Economic Community (the EEC). The EEC which contains all the territories of the Old Roman Empire, is in the process right now of adopting the one-currency system for many of their member nations. It is written, IN THE DAYS OF THESE KINGS (these nations, which is now) SHALL THE GOD OF HEAVEN SET UP A KINGDOM - Dan 2:44. Globalism. The increased centralization of world financial and political power into a "New World Order" is a prelude to the soon-coming anti-Christ, who will deceive most of the world (Daniel 7-12; Matthew 24:15; Revelation 13). One World Government: Over two thousand years ago the prophets Daniel and John described that there would be a global, world government led by the coming dictator, the Antichrist in the last days (Daniel 7:14). "And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him" (Revelation 13:7,8). There has never been a world government during thousands of years of human history. The elite are moving behind the scenes to produce a world government as quickly as possible. The rising power of the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, and World Court are moving us quickly beyond the days of national sovereignty and individual nations. These things are all happening today! Apostasy. Paul also says that in the last days there will be those with "a form of godliness, but denying its power" (2 Timothy 3:5), a condition even in many Christian churches today where the power of the Holy Spirit is not only denied, even His mention is rare and often discouraged, while anti-Christian practices are encouraged, all in the name of "religion." Not only can we see all the Bible prophesies regarding this time coming true in today's world ... but there are no prophesies regarding the "latter days" that aren’t coming true! It's a perfect record again ... God was ‘right on’ in the past and he is ‘bang on’ today for today ... God's Bible scripture is truth, plain and simple ... we have to start putting these facts together ... and make some decisions about our faith ... and His second coming. Many of prophecies for our generation have been given, all perfect and all written centuries ago. The chance of any person writing these perfect prophecies 2000 years into the future is not possible. The Bible is the Word of God, and we have just proved it and will continue to look at more proof ... We cannot keep saying to ourselves ... "oh I just don’t know". Friends ... Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Repent and Read and obey the Gospel. God loves you. He is not willing that any should perish. The Rapture may be close, weather it be pre trib or post, it dosent matter ... what matters is to be ready, to watch ... This is what Jesus commanded ... Most people are not ready and will not be taken. However, you cannot say you did not know. I know it’s hard to do ... I mean, to leave the world and enter the faith in Jesus Christ ... Looking at evidence like this helps me and I hope it helps you ... Pray to God for understanding and true faith ... only he can allow it. For your sake ... know and understand. Mt 16:26: " WHAT IS A MAN PROFITED, IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL? OR WHAT SHALL A MAN GIVE IN EXCHANGE FOR HIS SOUL?" The Bible is full of amazing and miraculous ‘fingerprints’ of Gods hand ... For me this is vital proof for the skeptic and luke warm Christian. Throughout the old Testament, there are hundreds of prophesies pertaining to the coming Messiah. As we know and as archeology/ history proves, the Old Testament was written hundreds of years before the arrival of Jesus. Yet God, through scripture, tells us through three different prophets, over 50 exact details on the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ hundreds of years before his birth. Every one came true to the letter ... This simply cannot happen by chance... wakeup call... Are You Ready? In today's world we are lost in mainstream materialism and self absorption. God is yet a small part of our lives and is slowly disappearing in our minds and hearts ... Remember what God told us of people's attitudes in the end days .... (2 Tim 3:1-4) : "There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God". The Bible clearly tells us to "watch" and "be ready", to wait and look for the signs and the season, and interpret these signs. He told us he loved us and died for us and is coming back! Hard for some of us to believe, but true. The reason why I'm sending out the Seven Letters is ... there is an urgency for you and for all to find the truth/Jesus. I strive to point out these 'Signs' and to be of help to you in the troubled times ahead ... I pray you find the truth in this message. Right now, kneel and pray this prayer out loud, and mean it with all your heart: DEAR JESUS, I AM A SINNER. I BELIEVE YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD AND DIED FOR MY SINS ON THE CROSS. FORGIVE ALL OF MY SINS. JESUS, I REPENT. I ASK YOU TO HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER, AND COME INTO MY LIFE. GIVE ME YOUR SPIRIT AND YOUR POWER. HELP ME TO FOLLOW AND OBEY YOUR COMMANDMENTS, AND TO LIVE FOR YOU. JESUS, I GIVE YOU MY LIFE. THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY PRAYER. THANK YOU FOR COMING INTO MY LIFE. I ASK IT IN THE NAME OF MY LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST. AMEN. The truth... All the treasure of wisdom and knowledge that is found in Jesus Christ is the truth. We will prove we cannot know the truth about this world, except by looking through his eyes. Every genuine seeking of truth will ultimately come to the understanding that the Bible is the "Mother lode" of the treasure we seek. If this was forwarded to you and you would like to learn more of the truth told to all in His bible, simply send a blank e-mail to sevenletters@aweber.com and you will recieve the (free) proof of His mercy, proof of the truth in His word. The Seven Letters are ... An accumulation of important facts and findings, containing considerable scriptural evidence, proving God's divine inspiration/ fingerprint, and plan - hidden to most - within His Word... Written to prove to you and anyone the significance and urgency of these times we live in and what we must do to make sure we are in the 'protection of Christ' in the times ahead... :amen
