Book of Revelation - The Apocalypse of John

 

Psalm 144:1-3

Praise be to the Lord my Rock,
    who trains my hands for war,
    my fingers for battle.
He is my loving God and my fortress,

    my stronghold and my deliverer,
my shield, in whom I take refuge,
    who subdues peoples under me.

 

What does 'Apocalypse' mean?

 

The word Apocalypse is generally used today to described any major destructive force that affects the planet as a whole.
When referenced to the Apocalypse of John, it means a 'Revealing of Knowledge' or an 'Uncovering'.
But I think it would safe to say that both meanings should be used together when we look around at the world we have made today.

 

The Book of Revelation is ALL prophecy, trying to understand what the prophecy is all about is not an easy task.

 

Here we will try and explain what the Revelation is about and who are the main players.

 

The run up to the Second Coming of Christ will not be pleasant, major worldwide earthquakes, worldwide famine and pestilence, and finally World War III, disease caused by biological and nuclear weapons.

 

The Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse - The first part of the 'Beginning of Sorrows'

 

Revelation 6:1-8  And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

 

Short synopsis

 

White Horse   - Represents the increasing number of false prophets, preaching a false Christ and false salvation.

Red Horse       - Increasing number of wars

Black Horse    - Increasing Famine

Pale Horse      - Widespread uncontrolled disease

 

Before any of this happens the Bible states that first there must be a 'Falling Away' first [from the Church - Apostasy]:

 

2 Thessalonians 2:1-3  Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you,

not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the Man of Sin is revealed, the Son of Perdition, (perdition = destruction).

 

As we can readily see the falling away has been happening at an ever increasing rate, Christianity has been removed from schools and replaced with Islam, non-Muslim children are being force to pray to Allah, parents who refuse to let their non-Muslim children go to mosques are called racist and this is noted on the child's school record, YET Muslim children are NOT forced to go the Christian Churches as this is OFFENSIVE to them and nobody in authority it seems, wishes to 'offend' Islam or Muslims.  Yet Christians are told to be tolerant of the intolerant and when they come to attack you turn the other cheek......while they kill or enslave you and your family.

The is what you can expect from Islam - There is NO co-habitating with Muslims - Islam wants total control, convert or die.

Qu'ran 8:12 - Your Lord [Allah/Satan] inspired the angels: I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes... 

Today's Definition - Muslim = Devout Worshipper and Victim........Christian = Racist......

 

And POPE FRANCIS is 'encouraging' Christians to accept the murdering HEATHENS into our Countries and even our Homes

 

Christianity is being blamed for all the 'HATE' in the world, yet it is Islam and it's adherents that are attacking non-Muslims, with bombs, car attacks, stabbings, mass rapes, including organised rape gangs and paedophilia, governments are actively covering this up with the help of the media. Satan's influence has infiltrated every of aspect of western life, if as Christians or westerners, we dare to complain about this we are condemned as 'racist', complaining about Islam has become a crime for which you can and will be prosecuted, be fined or imprisoned, Shariah law has also been incorporated into western law.

All of this is the lead up to Islamic Domination, yet Muslim apologists are unable to see what is happening.

 

2 Corinthians 4:4  whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

 

As we can see here Satan has blinded people to what is happening around them, the 'Great Deceiver' has worked his magic and because people have allowed themselves to be blinded to Jesus, a terrible punishment will follow.

 

Who Or What is the Beast Of Revelation?

 

Revelation 17:1-2  And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying to me, Come here; I will show to you the judgement of the great whore that sits upon many waters:

With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

The 'Woman' as referenced in the Bible is the apostate Church - She has entered into geopolitical alliances - committed 'Fornication' with world governments - the 'Kings'. And the inhabitants have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication - the populations have willingly been dragged along with them.

 

Revelation 17:3-5  So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

And the woman was dressed in PURPLE and SCARLET colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.

Note the colour that John saw the 'Woman' wearing PURPLE and SCARLET - The colours worn by the Church hierarchy.

 

Revelation 17:6   And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

World governments with the aid of the apostate Church have tortured and murdered millions of True Christians - the True Saints of the True Christ.

 

The Whore of Babylon - Mother of Harlots

 

Pope Francis has said on numerous occasions that humanity will only survive with a 'One World Government' and a 'One World Religion', nothing could be further from the truth. A One World Government would have a 'One World Ruler' only one person could fill this roll - 'The End-Time Anti-Christ'.

No, this isn't Pope Francis, he is just one of a long line of anti-Christ's who will aid the Anti-Christ in his power grab.
Who this final Anti-Christ is we don't know at the moment, but we do know he is just waiting in the wings to make his appearance when all the world's governments capitulate and throw the their populations into the lap of Satan.

 

The Mark Of The Beast - RFID Chip?

 

Revelation 13:16-18  And he makes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

And that no one might buy or sell, unless they have the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. (666).

 

Most people when originally reading this thought it would be some sort of visible sign, like a branding on the skin, we now know that this is NOT what it is. How many of you have heard of an RFID Chip? [Radio Frequency Identification Chip] commonly called a microchip about the size of a grain of rice.  Unless you haven't been listening people in various countries have willingly had these implanted in their hands, placed in the 'V' between the thumb and index finger. They are linked to the owner with DNA, so they can only be used by them. These chips act more or less the same as the 'Contactless' chip in your debit/credit card or the tracking device put in to pets. The makers of these chips say they do not have a tracking device, yes they do, they just have to be activated!!

These chips will contain your bio-metric data, they are voluntary at the moment, but how long will it be before they are compulsory?  People will be be sweet talked into having them implanted - at first - 'They will protect your bank accounts', 'Protect access to your computer and other digital devices', 'Personalise your medical treatment' this is what they will tell you. Many will believe this, but what about the adverse side, what will happen if you are deemed to be an 'Enemy of the State' - Locked out of bank accounts, locked out of computers, unable to make purchases (we will be a cashless society)unable to travel, deny you medical treatment.

They will track your every movement, everything you do and everything you say.  And as with all technology, it can be hacked.

 

Look at Revelation 13:16-18 again - and remember this was written nearly 2,000 years ago.

 

Beware of False Prophets and False Ministers - The Great Deceivers

 

Many will clothe themselves in the robes of the Church:

Matthew 7:15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

 

2 Corinthians 11:13-15  For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.

And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

 

Matthew 24:24  For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. (The elect are 'True Christians', also called 'Saints' - This does NOT refer to the Church made saints in anyway whatsoever).

 

1 Timothy 4:1  The Great Apostasy - Now the Spirit speaks plainly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; - The 'Great Falling' away.

 

Matthew 7:22-23  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? And in your name have cast out devils? And in your name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.
These is the apostate 'Churchmen' who Jesus rebukes for their selfish ways and self-professed 'Godliness', which is only ever been skin deep.

 

2 Thessalonians 2:9  Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

ALL popes have been anti-Christ - Satan will put in place THE End-Time Anti-Christ who will perform miracles and great wonders - DO NOT be fooled - Many will be taken down the path of destruction. 

 

Satan Will Tempt Us All

 

Satan will use temptations to attract you to him with wealth, pleasure and lust - he knows human nature all too well.

 

2 Timothy 2:1-3  Therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

And the things that you have heard of me among many witnesses, commit yourself to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

You therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

 

Matthew 6:8-13  Be not like them: for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you ask him.

After this manner pray:

The Lords Prayer

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.

Amen.
