Approximately two years ago I began to have unusual thoughts that I initially believed were the product of my own imagination that were being energized by my total faith in God and His Word, which means that “all things are possible for one who believes (Mk. 9:23). The thoughts grew more powerful over time until I came to the realization that I was not their author, rather, I was their receiver. After much prayer I realized that what I was experiencing were not mental thoughts, but a wide-ranging prophecy from the Lord consisting of several parts. Those parts involve myself, the world’s national governments, a global church-state coalition, a Catholic Pope, God’s true church, a miracle-based ministry–AND WAR. The author of the prophecy was Almighty God Who was telling me what would take place just prior to the beginning of the Great Tribulation, which, if my timing is right, will begin within four to six years. I tend to think closer to four because the Lord has shown me that President Trump will be a leading force in the prophecy’s fulfillment. For more information about the revelation, read the series using the key word–Gun.

The Lord is telling me that the soon-coming war against His “little flock” (Lk. 12:32) will involve every nation on earth. The David versus Goliath level conflict will involve an all-nations, all-religions movement that will declare and enforce a GLOBAL DAY OF REST mandate. That day of the week will be designated a non-work day for the whole of mankind–a sabbath (rest) day that everyone everywhere must observe. The day will not be God’s holy seventh day Sabbath.

Concerning the war involved in the message, a problem will arise when God’s people continue to observe the Biblical day of rest and to conduct business as usual on the international DAY OF REST. The legislation will be initiated by the Catholic Church which will successfully draw all religions and all governments into one church-state organization with the world’s governments serving as the globalists’ enforcement apparatus. This coalition will attempt to force all people to observe its designated rest day and will, by governmental decree, punish all who refuse to observe it. The leader of this coalition will be the reigning Catholic Pope who will have gained international political power by uniting all religions and national governments into a one-world religion which will exert tremendous influence over the governments of the world.

This church is written about in Revelation seventeen verses one through five where she is characterized as the Great Whore (Catholicism) and her harlot daughters (Protestantism). Incredibly, all other religions will join the Catholic Church and agree on a particular day in which to rest each week. A dozen or so years ago I wrote a series about the Catholic Church’s efforts to draw her Protestant daughters (churches) back into the fold. Her success is highlighted in the series titled The Ingathering: The Rise of the End-time Church and can be downloaded using the key word–Ingathering.

During the global war against God’s Very Elect saints the world will watch His messengers perform miracles that will shock the viewers, including former church people and those of all religions who will have joined the world-wide coalition and its globally popular pope who will be operating under the power of Satan. Due to the level of information access now available to anyone having a television or cell phone, what happens anywhere on earth can be seen within minutes, often in real time.

The move of God relative to the miracles that will be performed will make the Biblical Book of Acts pale by comparison. During that time Christ’s John 14:12 proclamation will be manifested for the whole of humanity to witness. The global church-state coalition, led by the False Prophet of Revelation 16:13 and 19:20, will do all in its power to stop the Lord’s supernatural movement. However, it will fail and will do so before a world-wide audience. Not even a world-sized force will be able to stop God’s people from revealing to the world the message, the power and the glory of the Lord. Their power will be supplied by the same entity by which the God who became Jesus Christ created the universe–the Holy Spirit. It is written by King David that “He spoke, and it was” (Ps. 33:9). That, dear readers, is the power available to God’s true messengers today. That is the same power by which I brought back to life a man who had been dead three days.

God’s tiny church will be displaying His power and glory to the world. However, that will not be what will turn the world’s masses against them. God’s people will be telling Satan’s hoards that the problems they are experiencing–and there will be many–are being caused by their sins, that their miseries are self-inflicted. Another cause to hate God’s people will arise because they (God’s saints) will not be affected by the disasters that will continually afflict every other soul on earth.

The saints’ enemies will not be able to stop them from doing what they do and saying what they say. During this time some Old Testament prophecies will be manifested such as the promise God made to His obedient people that “One will chase a thousand and two will chase ten thousand” (Deut. 32:30). In Deuteronomy 28:7 the Lord promises His people that their enemies will come at them one way and flee seven ways. Jesus reminds obedient believers that “Greater is he that is in us than he that is in the world” (1 Jn: 4:4).

Following this brief global war against God’s people, He will take them to a place of safety where He will provide for and protect them throughout the following 3 1/2 years during which the world’s sinners will suffer as never before. The Great Tribulation series explains what will take place as, first, Satan, who hates mankind, will punish sinners for 2 1/2 years during the Tribulation period. Then God will pour out His wrath on them for one year which the Prophet Joel calls the “great and terrible Day of the Lord” (2:11). These events are detailed in the Tribulation series. Key word-Tribulation. I write about God’s protection of his people during that 3 1/2 year period of death and destruction in the series titled God’s Place of Safety in an Earthly Hell. Key word–Place.

In this series we will look deeper into the prophecy, specifically into the identity and history of the False Prophet written about in Revelation 16:13 and 19:20 as well as the religious organization behind him. The Lord has instructed me to write about the religious organization that will once again raise its ugly head in an attempt to remove God’s people from the earth. What is this organization? What has it done in the past? What will it do in the future? These questions will be answered in this series. We will now go back in history in order to uncover the history of this powerful, deadly organization that is destined to become even more powerful and even more deadly in the near future.

Following her day in the sun during which she will present itself as God’s gift to mankind, this religious whore will reveal the darkness that is at the core of her existence. She will attempt to destroy God’s people until He takes them to “her place” of safety (Rev. 12:14). Then the Great Tribulation will begin. At that time Satan will pour out his wrath on the unprotected masses for the following 2 1/2 years. Following This period of horror will be followed by the year-long “great and terrible Day of the Lord.”

While reading this and any other series, keep in mind that man’s problems have been, are being and will always be caused by his refusal to obey God Who plainly tells us that man reaps what he sows. Beginning with Adam, man has consistently sown the wind and reaped the whirlwind. Remember that it is God who sends the whirlwind. Read Second Chronicles 7:13-15. Notice Who sends droughts, locusts and pestilence (disease) upon people, and why. Led by the church, the people of the world individually and their host nations corporately have defied God on every hand and in every way. Recall that at one time the Lord drowned every human being on earth because of their sins. Only eight people were allowed to survive that world-wide flood. What we see taking place today is the warm=up before the main event. God warns His saints corporately and personally that the worst is yet to come. As Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:8, what we are experiencing today is merely “the begging of sorrows.”

Hell on earth is coming, and soon. First will be an international war against God’s true people. This will be followed by the Great Tribulation which will be followed by the Day of the Lord, which will make the Tribulation seem like child’s play. Then Christ will return and, following the slaughter of His enemies, will bring righteousness and peace to this vile world. In the following posting we will examine the man and his followers who will orchestrate a global war against God’s true saints while being backed by the world’s national governments. The good news for God’s people is that their enemies will lose and the False Prophet will be cast into the Lake of Fire. The bad news for the rest of the world is what will happen between now and then. L.J.
