I wrote this to my prayer group ladies. It’s my main takeaways from my research on biblical end-time prophecies.

Hello ladies! I’ve been prompted by the Holy Spirit to share some of my knowledge with you about the last days according to biblical end-time prophesy. This topic was something that I dodged for several years after learning about it in my Bible study group on the book of Daniel. The subject matter is overwhelming but I finally decided to learn more about the end times because the Holy Spirit got my attention in 2020. After my careful studies, I now conclude that we are living in the last hour of the church age. I’ll only be touching the surface of my gathered information but you can seek more information by following the pastors and ministries that I’ll be mentioning.

Half of the book of Daniel is about the future of ruling empires. Daniel’s prophetic dream vision showed that after the Babylonian empire fell, the next one will be the Medo-Persian, followed by the Greek and then the Roman Empire. These things happened exactly as Daniel predicted. Daniel then jumped forward to the end of time. The book of Revelation is consistent with Daniel’s prophetic words about the end times. The book of Ezekiel is another Old Testament book that revealed the timeline of the end times. Now that I am open to learning these things, it is incredible to see the consistency and precision of the Holy Bible throughout the centuries. The Holy Bible is truly the word of God for humanity. Plus with all these things plainly revealed in the Bible, it is clear that God wants us to know these things so that we will have confidence and comfort in the end times.

Here are my key takeaways:
1. Keep your eyes on Israel. You have to understand her past and modern history. Pastor Hamick’s sermon on Ezekiel does a superb summary. Please go to his church website to hear more on his sermon series on the book of Ezekiel. https://youtu.be/ZN79IDRAQf0

2. Amir Tsarfati is a messianic Israeli pastor. He sends out weekly news reports about the Middle East. He’s very sharp and I highly value his thoughts from a biblical perspective on current events. Subscribe to his free e-newsletters to keep your eyes on Israel. In this message he talks about why we as believers need to understand biblical end-times prophecies. https://youtu.be/H28uknbL9AE

3. I have learned so much from Pentecostal pastor Derek Princeespecially about intercessory prayers and on healing. Due to my frustration of seeing so many believers who are sick, I tried to understand the spiritual side of sickness. I have learned a lot from him. However anytime I saw his sermons popping up next about the end times, I’d avoid them…until now. This message was informative and very comforting. https://youtu.be/gr0WOpu1QNI
His teaching library has a section on the end times if you want to read his articles and thoughts more. I’ve started to read them. They are very thorough. https://www.derekprince.org/Groups/1000065927/DPM_USA/Resources/Teaching_Articles/Teaching_Articles.aspx

4. The rapture of the church will happen at the end of the church age. Theologians differ when this will happen – before, during or end of the 7-year Great Tribulation. From my analysis, the majority of theologians and pastors believe the rapture of believers will happen before the Great Tribulation. The Antichrist will be in charge during the Great Tribulation. He’ll first come like a wonderful, peaceful, political leader, and then in the middle completely change. He’ll demand worship of himself in the third temple according to all the biblical end-time prophecies. What is the third temple? It’s the temple in Jerusalem, Israel. It’s not built yet but there are plans and people ready to build the third temple as soon as the orthodox rabbis release their traditional view on the actual location of the second temple. I’m sure this will happen soon. Please watch this documentary on recent archeological discoveries that show the real location of the second temple. https://youtu.be/oKTO8YYs29c
This messianic ministry wrote an article several years ago about the people and systems that are coming together to rebuild the third temple in Jerusalem. Now that the location of the second temple may not be in the highly contested site, it can be rebuilt anytime. But the orthodox rabbis in Israel have to all change their viewpoint. Right now they are not there yet. Tradition is very important to them and so it’ll be interesting to see how God gets them to hear and accept the new archeological discoveries. https://www.jewishvoice.org/read/article/update-building-third-temple
Books of Daniel and Revelation speak at length about the Antichrist in the Tribulation period. Please do bible studies on these two books. There are many resources available.

5. I remember in my bible study on the book of Daniel, I got excited to learn that in the last days God will reconnect with his Jewish people again. I always pray for my Jewish family members to believe in Jesus Christ as their Yeshua Messiah. I’ve tried but it is impossible with human efforts, but Jesus said in Matthew 19:26 that – “With God, all things are possible.” I believe Jesus.
During 2020, One for Israel reported that many Israelis have downloaded their videos and Hebrew Bible of the New Testament! This is incredible news! This means that Romans 11 promises to the body of Christ, the church will happen soon! Amazing! Please visit this link to see their report:https://www.oneforisrael.org/outreach/I like their suggestions on how to pray for Israel. And please subscribe to their weekly e-newsletter to keep your eyes on Israel. https://www.oneforisrael.org/bible-teachings/prayer/how-can-i-pray-for-israel-25-pointers/

6. I have been keeping my eyes on child sexual trafficking news and reports for the last ten years. With human slavery at its highest numbers in modern history, it would greatly perplex me why secular news are not reporting this more with urgency. In the ten years that I have been reading on child sexual trafficking news, the ages of the children victims are getting younger and younger, and the appetite to rape children are growing exponentially. Today, the rape of children are now with babies. Knowing what I know of these facts, and how Jesus feels about young children, and that their angels see the face of God everyday; I believe Jesus is coming back soon to rescue these children. If you want to learn more about this evil situation, please email me to set up a phone conversation. Please pray that more people will learn about this evil atrocities against children and about modern human slavery.

7. Left Behind, the movie with Kirk Cameron is about the rapture of believers. It was entertaining. I watched it recently on Netflix. This movie also had the believers raptured before the Antichrist came into power. It’s possible that we may leave behind loved ones. However, they will see our trail of information about the Bible and our saved discussions. Therefore I believe that they will be saved, even the ones who are very resistant and closed.

I like Times Square Church thoughts about the end times and the rapture in their devotional, and their advice for the believers today. https://260journey.com/the-day-the-curtains-come-down/

I have thrown a lot of information on you! Please consider these things slowly. If you aren’t ready yet to hear then just save this email for later. I have only shared the few things that I have learned recently about biblical end-times prophecies. If you have any questions, please email me to set up a phone conversation. I can direct you to good biblical resources if you want more information.

As I have learned more about biblical end-time prophecies, instead of creating dread and fear; I have more confidence, comfort and awe of God. I pray that it’ll do the same for you.
Psalm 33:18-19 (VOICE) – Listen, the eye of the Eternal is upon those who live in awe of Him, those who hope in His steadfast love,That He may save them from the darkness of the grave and be kept alive during the lean seasons.
