ISRAEL: THE SEVENTIETH YEAR
CHRIST’S REMOVEAL OF BELIEVERS FROM THE EARTH
A SCIENTIST’ VIEW OF CHRIST’S SIGNS
IS THERE SCIENTIFIC BASIS FOR CHRIST’S PROPHECIES
THE WORLD IS NOW SEEING CHRIST'S 'WARNING SIGNS'
The signs are telling us that God's judgments upon this world (all mankind) for its great evil, is soon to come {56 million babies slaughtered per year}. Christ gave us many prophecies and signs throughout His first advent on earth, but the answers that He gave them/us when He was asked by the Apostles in (Matthew 24:2-3), (Luke 21:8-11) specifically about: _ (#1)_ “the Temple's destruction”; … (#2)_ “the signs of His coming back for His Church” (to remove His true believers from the earth); … and (#3)_ “the end of the age”.
Christ's answer for question (#1): was to let them know about the soon coming Roman Army Invasion to overrun Jerusalem in ~70 AD, killing many Jews, destroying much of the city, and to “throw down every stone of the Temple” (Mat.24:3). This happened 40 years later.
Christ's answer for question (#3): includes: _ the wrath of God upon the whole world; Christ's return to save Israel from all the armies of the world {the war called Armageddon}; _ and Christ's establishing His Kingdom on earth)}. (Revelation chapters 6-22)…..
This then leaves .. .. .. .. ..
Christ's answers for question (#2): _Christ gave the Apostles seven signs that are to tell us that … “His return to remove all believers from this earth is even at the door!”(Luke 21:8-11). …
THE SEVEN SIGNS that Jesus said would occur before His return:
(Sign #1) _ Christ then said : _“Many will come in my name saying I am Christ”; … In ancient times there were numerous men who thought they were great and glorious, claiming to be God, one of those men was Antiochus Epiphanes who overran Jerusalem in B.C.175, slaughtered many Jews, and sacrificed a hog on the Temple Altar. …. But in 1889 a man was born by the name of Adolf Hitler: _ who in his early years as a young man began to claim to be sent by God [in other words the messiah] comparing himself to Jesus Christ the Lord; proclaiming that his word was the Word of God; that he had a Divine Destiny; that his empire would rule the world for a thousand years; {and as he begin to gain political power in Germany}, he stated that his empire [the third Reich] would divide time like Christ did. … The Bible calls Christ the living “Word of God” and that “Christ will rule the world for a thousand years.” You see Hitler was claiming to be Christ, the son of God. And since that time there have been many others that have boasted much the same. Also there are many men today around the world, in various church organizations that portray themselves as holy, righteous, and even-Divine! But they are sinners just like the rest of us … only Jesus Christ (God’s Son) is completely Holy.
(Sign #2) _ Jesus continued: _ “Nation will come against Nation and Kingdom against Kingdom” … some will say: _ “Anyone could predict that there would continue to be wars, we've had them through all of history.” .. .. And I say, that is a very logical, intelligent, conclusion, but we need to broaden our understanding.
Note: _ There is something that we need to understand about Christ {He is God in the Flesh}. He is Not into idle-talk, mundane chatter, or meaningless statements. …. Every Word He spoke was meaning something very unusual, something out of the norm, something very serious, and very, very great, …. because He was and is God The Son! Our Creator. …. [The Lord combined this statement with all these countries and kingdoms together, in a single sentence, indicating a very great and horrendous war.] …… No war throughout man’s history met the requirements of Christ’s great statement … until the year 1914, when World-War-One came into existence, becoming the WORLD’S-FIRST-SUPER-WAR. {No war in history had ever been called a WORLD-WAR before.} Twenty-eight nations were in the greatest battle the world had ever seen {at that time}, but it really was not over in 1918, the problems and unrest kept festering until twenty years later, when it broke out again, with the same nations, plus 30 more, into World-War-Two, with 58 nations fighting. Also this great unrest in the Middle-East today, I believe is building up to the greatest war of all time, [which will involve all nations (Zachariah 12:1-3)], becoming the greatest and … Final-World-War, spoken of in the Bible, and called … ARMAGEDDON. .. .. {Every Prophet in the Bible prophesied of this War.}
(Sign #3) _ Christ continued: _ There will be Great/ Mighty Earth Quakes in place after place.” … The seismograph has existed for about 140 years. The earth was stable for about the first 70 years at an average of ~ 2 quakes per decade of time, {which reached 6.0 or more, on the Richter-Scale}… Then suddenly in the 1950’s there were 9 quakes, in the 1960’s there were 13, in the 1970’s there were 51, in the 1980’s there were 86, in the 1990’s there were 376, in the decade of 2000 to 2010 there were 1,603 quakes reaching 6.0 or more [this data was taken from https://www.U.S.GeologicalSurvey.gov ]. … Maybe I should give you a moment to digest all that … {1,603 quakes as compared to 2 quakes??}. … … What do you think ... is about to happened?
(Sign #4) _ Jesus continued: _ “and there will be Great Famines in place after place.” There are famines in Africa, Asia, India, and South America at present; but in the early 1980’s there were unbelievable famines with the death tolls reaching into the millions; and as world population continues to grow, there is no doubt that more famines will come. The US and other UN nations sent modern farming equipment to those 3rd world countries alleviating the hunger problem at that time. …. Note: _ [World Population has doubled now, in the past 40 years, and the curve indicates that it could double again in the next 20 years {half the time}.]
(Sign #5) _ The Lord continued: _ ... “and there will be GREAT PESTILENCE {disease/ sickness} in many places.” We have seen large scale Sickness, Disease, Viruses, Influenza, and Food Contamination outbreaks one after the other spread over very large areas of the world {Then there is the death sentence … AIDS and EBOLA, and now Covid-19}. And again with world population growth and with so many people traveling the world over, spreading all these things at jet airliner speed, it’s going to get much worse.
(Sign #6) _ Jesus proceeded speaking: _ “and there will be GREAT FEARFUL SIGHTS OF TERROR”; [On 9-11-01, when the airliners plowed into the twin towers in New York City and the two skyscrapers came crumbling down … I felt the blood run from my face, as I stood there, watching the news with cold chills running down my back, and my very first thought was Oh Lord! “GREAT SIGHTS OF TERROR”, and now all the other Terrorist Attacks around the world, and they keep coming.]
And now (CHRIST'S 7TH-SIGN): _ … “AND THERE WILL BE GREAT SIGNS IN THE HEAVENS.”; (Luke 21:11); Christ continued in verse 25 expounding on the culmination of the signs in the heavens that will increase in power and devastation, as the end approaches. The Lord then said: _ “And there shall be SIGNS in THE SUN, and in THE MOON, and in THE STARS.”…. It is quite clear that Christ is speaking of the heavens of cosmic space. …. Also in (Isaiah 13:9-10, 13) _ …the prophet Isaiah expands on these signs in the heavens in the last days, making his statement using the word: _ “Constellations”; …. meaning the great star formations in the heavens that man has studied, and used for navigation, since ancient times. This last sign, the signs from comic space, began only 27 years ago in 1993, when the 3.1 mile diameter giant comet, Shoemaker/Levy-9, was spotted by Gene and Carolyn Shoemaker and David Levy. They then proceeded to track, projecting its path, and determined that it would indeed impact our solar system’s largest planet … Jupiter. … Man had never seen a collision of 'large heavenly bodies' before! The entire scholarly world was in a frenzy of excitement and virtually every telescope on Earth was trained on Comet S/L-9. The Shoemakers and Levy, as well as the entire astronomical world watched this huge comet for 18 months as it drew ever closer, entered into our solar system, and then bombarded our largest planet Jupiter with a terrifying display of power, …. energy, …. and destruction … which left them in speechlessness … for a time. Tremendous amounts of data were taken in the numerous months of observation, more than any rogue heavenly body before. The amount of energy they calculated, that the impacts would produce, was almost more than they could believe. It literally left the scientific world in a state of shock! .. .. After the impacts, scientists asked each other: _ “What if it had impacted earth?” “Would there have been anything left of our planet?” …… Keep watching the sky, there is much more to come! .. .. ..
HIGHWAY-SIGNS
……
Just as highway signs warn us of DANGER AHEAD,
like: _ dangerous intersection ½ mile ahead; or very
steep-down-grade 1500 feet ahead;
or sharp
loop-back/ switch-back curve one-mile ahead;
…. likewise GOD’S
SIGNS
are warning us of great
danger
… just
ahead.
The signs are not
the danger,
not
the wrath,
and not
the event,
but they are pictures or WARNING
IMAGES
of what …. is
….
TO
COME.
All the signs will continue to increase in power and terror as the end approaches. ….. If you get left behind when Christ, in the blink of an eye, snatches all born-again [true] believers from this earth, you will have to endure the entire seven years of the Wrath of Almighty God! … We all need to prepare to meet God, our Creator, for the time grows very short. We have all broken God's Laws. Scripture says: _ “There is none righteous, no not one.” …. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” (Rom. 3:10, 23) Again: _ [“It is even at the door”]. … Yes, I know the world can’t see that the Lord is coming, and they say: _ “Where is the promise of his coming? for all things continue as they were from the beginning of the world unto this time. … but they willingly refuse to believe in the world-wide-flood when God brought his wrath the first time” (2nd–Peter3:3,4). ………………… I solemnly promise you… He is going to bring His wrath again.... and very soon ! The Signs are every where. …. Also Christ Himself in (Matthew 25:13) said: _ “Watch therefore, for you know ‘neither the day nor the hour’ where in the Son of man comes.” Also see (Mat.24:36, Mat.24:44). I can not tell you the day or the hour of Christ's Return! …. No one can. …. But I can tell you about Christ's Signs of His Soon Return …. and they are here!
Note to the academic world: _ I am writing this document as simply as possible. I do not want it to be beyond the abilities of the average layman to comprehend the basic theme of the subjects. That is why I have left out a tremendous amount of scientific parameters, equations, other theories, and intricate details. I have no desire to impress anyone. All the average person needs is a ballpark view of what is happening. I am though going to give you a brief description of my background, in the following section, so that you will not think that I'm a totally uneducated babbling old man riddled with Alzheimer's, and without some knowledge of science {because my science will shock you … as well as the rest of the world}. Also I do not want any recognition for my work: _ that is why I write under the pin name Mister Prophecy. Also we have no time to write a 1500 page in-depth technical volume, or time to debate super complex science which would only benefit the most highly educated. …… My desire is to reach everyone possible, that is … the most people that I can, and time is running out for us all.
THIS POST: _ Also, I know that I’m starting this post off like my earlier post “WHY DID WE NOT LISTEN TO CHRIST”, but I feel like we need to reset our minds to this opening statement. And new readers need to get it as well, and they also need to find out about my back ground [in the opening section (next/below)], in order to understand me. But I assure you that this is a new post and it is going to change dramatically, delving deeply into the science of the universe becoming all New very quickly, but at the same time, keeping things on a much simplified, and easier to visualize level. I know that this last statement sounds like an oxymoron, but just read on, I believe you will perceive what I envision, and you may even be delightfully intrigued by the time we finish. ………. Yes, I do know that there are a number of theories on the forming and existence of the universe (along with a whole lot of other Science Fiction), but what I have given you in this post is what God has led me to, and it is no longer a theory to me. …… What you do with it is strictly between you and our Creator God.
MY BACKGROUND / MY PRESENTATION OF SCRIPTURE / THINGS HARD TO BELIEVE / AND MY SCIENCE
My Background: _ I'm a retired Electro-Optics-Engineer-Scientist, and I have spent 38 years working in the fields of science and technology … in the positions of: _ Research-Development-Laboratory-Technician; _ Electrical-Engineer; _ Electrical-Optics-Engineer; _ Engineer-Scientist; _ Technical-Staff-Member and Projects-Leader. But before that I graduated from a respected engineering university {56 years ago} with high honors {Director’s Honor Roll}. Before that I worked several years as a successful auto mechanic. Prior to that, I graduated from automotive trade school with high honors {straight-A's}. And I graduated from High School making the National Honor Society. …… But now today I have been retired from the engineering field for 22 years, and have no idea what's happening there now, but I have used that time exclusively in the study of Gods Word. Also today, I have no official Seminary/Religious schooling, only the teaching of Christ, God's Holy Word, and God’s Holy Spirit. {I have now spent more time (52 years {I was 24 when I gave my life to Christ}) in the study of God’s Word than all of my other studies combined.} … But I actually believe that it is the best way to be schooled in the Holy Scriptures, that is: _ directly from God’s Holy Spirit. …… I have though for short sessions, set under the teaching of several renown evangelists, teachers, and preachers, as well as studying many writings of great Christian authors, but the leading of God’s Holy Spirit through the scriptures is the final and controlling determinant for my beliefs. This does not mean that I follow God so closely that I know everything about the Bible, only God knows everything about His Word, but He does reveal certain things to certain believers according to their gifts/ their abilities that God gave them/ their level of surrender to His will/ and their level of hunger to walk with and be near to Him, all of which God desires for us all. Also it does not mean that I'm infallible, for the old fallen nature of man still lives in me. …… I also believe that man {all mankind} is incapable mentally of taking-in and understanding everything, ………… God is going to have to expand the functioning of our minds first. …… Man with his large brain, was designed and created with much greater mental faculties than he is capable of using now. {He (mankind) was greatly affected (bodily, mentally, and spiritually) by his fall from innocence into sin: _ “for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Rom.3:23) [sin: _ man’s disbelieving and disobeying God, thus bringing the curse upon mankind, the earth, and the entire universe, (that is All Creation).]}. …… At the end of each day of creation in Genesis, GOD said: _ “Everything is Very Good”, meaning “Perfect” {to an all knowing, all intelligent, all powerful, all perfect Creator … very good would have to be perfect}, but now everywhere we look: _ at man; the earth; and the universe; we see imperfections {absolutely nothing is perfect now}. Just look around, there is war, violence, hideous evil, cruelty, sickness, disease, aging, etc. {every living thing is growing old, even the Giant Redwood Trees}, and then comes the greatest imperfection, ....... death. Then everything man builds slowly disintegrates {molecular fatigue/breakdown/entropy} and wears out with time, like our automobiles, homes, appliances, machinery, factories, bridges, skyscrapers, and even the ancient pyramids in Egypt are weathering, and all …… will one day crumble into the dust. And now we are seeing strange, non-explainable things in the universe: _ such as old looking stars mixed in with younger stars, then galaxies with confusing features seeming to defy astrophysics, and of course dying stars, and exploding/supernova stars, and now even COLLIDING GALAXIES far out in space {absolutely frightful}. …………Only Christ can remove all of this from us. In the Bible, in the book of John, chapter 11:39-44, Jesus told Mary and Martha: _ at the tomb of Lazarus {their dead brother}.. "Take ye away the stone." .. Martha said: _ Lord by this time he stinks, for he hath been dead four days. But never the less, the people rolled away the stone as they were told, and then …. Jesus shouted _ with a loud voice, "Lazarus, Come Forth." And he that was dead came forth bound hand and foot with grave clothes, {I heard a preacher once say: _ “If Jesus had not called out Lazarus's name that all the dead throughout history would have raised from the dead.”}, and I believe he was right. Then Jesus said: _ "Loose him, and let him go." ..…. Also in (John 5:25, 28-29) a few days earlier, Christ said: _ "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live." …. "Marvel not at this: for the day is also coming, in the which 'All that are in the graves' shall hear the Son of God's voice, and shall come forth, -- those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned." …. Only Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God, can give us eternal life. …. In John 14:6 Jesus said: _ "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, {the Way to God, the Truth of God, and the Eternal Life from God} and 'No One' comes to the Father 'but by Me'."
