Endtime Indications

'O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?'

(Mathew 16:3)

 

According to Jesus, it is important to discern the signs of the times. That is why we have made a list of ten recent developments and events that demonstrate how very close the Endtime has approached. Each of the ten points will be linked to one or more bible prophecies on the Endtime.

 

1.

The US-empire is no longer the worshiped world force to which the whole world bows and the behavior of which is copied by many nations. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, Russia, China, India and Iran have grown into huge economical and/or military powers. They have become largely independent of the West and determine their own political course. What is more important: they form new alliances, with quite som influence, like the BRICS and the SCO. In doing so they together challenge the dominant position of the US.  An empire losing its worldwide influence is the most dangerous entity for world peace. With the encirclement of Russia and China and imposing tariffs on all countries in the world, it tries to keep its hegemony. But these tactics don't seem to work and backfire upon the USA. The last resort for holding on to worldwide power is a world war. This is precisely what Bible prophecy says would happen as the start of the Endtime: 

a. 'For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom' (Math.24:7)

b.  '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' (Rev.6:4)

c. 'And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months' (Rev.13:5)

 

2.

The Palestinian people are being persecuted to the extent of total extermination through bombs, bullets and starvation. This has been going on for almost two years. Another year would completely destroy the population of Gaza. As the indigenous people of the holy land, their roots to the original twelve tribes of Israel are the strongest. So called European Jews have been more assimilated with other peoples. That Palestinians are mostly Muslim does not eliminate their Jewish roots. Likewise the following of the Jewish religion does not make a person a descendent of Jacob, the Israeli patriarch. The hopeless situation of God's people is an indication of the soon return of Jesus:

a. 'I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them...' (Dan.7:21) - The 'same horn' = the USA

b. 'And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High...' (Dan.7:25) - 'he' = the USA

c. 'Behold, the day of the Lord comes, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city' (Zech.14:1,2) - 'all nations' = Zionists, taking the land from the indigenous people since 1948

 

3.

The Palestinian people will be resilient beyond understanding and they will defeat their enemies in the power of the Lord. Something of the sort can already be seen in the ceaseless battle that is fought 'out of nowhere' by Hamas (Al Qassam), Hezbollah and Houthis (Ansar Allah).

a. 'As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee' (Zech.9:11,12) - About 10.000 Palestinian prisoners are being held and tortured in IDF-prisons without due process, often for years. This text can only apply to Palestinians, not to the Zionist Jews or settlers, who receive total protection by the army, even though they harass, plunder and murder Palestinians.

b. 'When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.' (Zech.9:13) - Many so called Jews are partly or mainly of Greek origin, coming from the third empire, described in Daniel 7.

c. The Lord of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine (Zech.9:15)

d. 'And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the Lord is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.' (Zech.10:5)

e. 'In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.' (Zech.12:6) 'Governors of Judah' = Leaders of the Palestinians - 'all the people round about' = colonies of settlers, coming from Europe and the US. 'Jerusalem inhabited in ... Jerusalem' - inhabited by its own people, no longer by those who confiscated it for decades while posing as Jews.

 

4.

The leadership of present day Israel behaves like the 'king' of Daniel 11:36. Instead of honoring the Lord, they see themselves as 'the chosen ones', using God's words for the realization of their own political goals. They do not serve their own people but instead serve and worship their idol at the other side of the Atlantic, the USA, that made the existence of Zionist Israel a possibility. They do the bidding of the USA in the dominance of the Middle East, the most strategic location on earth - central to all continents and close to the oil. 

a. 'And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done. Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his estate shall he honor the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.' (Dan.11:36-38) - The God of forces = the USA, the military power that upholds the state of Israel

b. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exercises all the power of the first beast before him, and causes the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. (Rev.13:11,12) 'Another beast' = Zionist Israel - The first beast = the USA

 

5.

The present state of Israel obey the orders of the USA in the genocide of the Palestinians and the leaders in the Middle East that stand with the Palestinians. For they are the people that could endanger the empire's bridgehead in the Middle East.

a. 'Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves...' (the rest of the prophecy concerns the next point) - The scornful men = The Netanyahu cabinet - a covenant with death and hell = the USA with the Rothschild power in the background (Balfour declaration).

b. 'And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.' (Dan.8:23-25)

 

6.

The attacks on holy sites in Jerusalem by right-wing religious extremists has been growing through the years. Israel's apartheid policy has become more brutal since the setting in of the Gaza genocide on October 8, 2023. With all eyes on Gaza, the ethnic cleansing in the West-Bank has started. The complete land of the Palestinians is confiscated under enormous while 'Jewish' settlements are growing. The land is distributed among Jews from abroad. With these developments, the withholding force of Muslim Palestinians is getting weaker by the day. While Israel is doing everything God forbids and treads each and every UN resolution with foot, its supporters grow more brutal in the intrusion of Mosques, shielded by police forces and IDF-soldiers. The time will come when they will honor their master and god from Washington in one of those holy sites, the abomination of desolation.

 

a. Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain. (Daniel 11:39) Thus = 'honor the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things' - The strange God = the US, represented by its president.

b. '...that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. (2 Thess.2:3,4) Remark: It seems that Paul has taken 'exalts himself above all that is called God' exactly from Daniel 11:38, where is stated: 'Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all'. However Daniel speaks about two different persons, 'the king' and 'the strange god' that he honors. The explanation can be twofold: either 'the king' copies the behavior of his god, as Psalm 115 states: 'They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusts in them' (Psalm 115:8). Or the two most evil people in the world are seen as one: the lawless one, because they are 'joined at the hip' and 'there is no daylight between them'. It shows us how close Israel and the US are. Israel is part of the US.

c. 'And he shall speak great words against the most High...' (Dan.7:25) He = the little horn or eleventh horn of Daniel 7:8 = the US-empire

d. '...and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate...' (Dan.9:27) He = the ruler that shall come of Dan.9:26) = US-empire, heir of the Roman empire

e. 'When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place...' (Math.24:15)

f. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven' (Rev.13:6)

 

7.

In the Endtime, there would be a military power to the North of Israel that is capable of totally destroying it. This is Iran. In twelve days of June 2025 Iran pounced the state of Israel with rockets to the extent that even its harsh leadership fainted and asked its commanders in Washington to put a stop to it, which happened in an agreement between the US and Iran whereby the US would strike Iran's nuclear facilities (which could never succeed because of their depth in the mountains) and Iran would retaliate. Moreover, a dominant power to the South of Israel, Egypt, is also preparing for some sort of military action, seeing the buildup of an army in the Sinai. Iran will attack Israel in every way possible once Israel defiles the Al Aqsa Mosque together with the US-leadership (see point 5). However, after Iran's successful attack on Israel, it will be eliminated by the empire, that will receive 'a great sword' (Rev.6:4), 'power was given unto him to continue forty and two months' (Rev.13:5).

a. 'And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. From the time that it goes forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.' (Isaiah 28:18,19) - your, ye, = the Zionist state of Israel that has as covenant with death and hell committing genocide as part of a covenant - the Balfour declaration of 1917 -since WW2 taken over by the USA. The overflowing scourge = Iran's military. 

b. 'And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps. But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many. And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.' (Dan.11:40-45). 'him' = the leadership of Zionist Israel. 'king of the south' = Egypt. 'king of the north' = Iran. Edom = Saudis, Emirates, Qataris. Moab and Ammon = Jordan. The corridor to Israel runs through Irak, Syria and Lebanon - not through Jordan or the Gulf countries.

 

8.

Through the Ukraine war, Russia has proven to be one of the most formidable military powers on earth. After Jesus' return, the land of Israel would be attacked again far from the North by a very mighty military force. It would invade the holy land but it would be destroyed on its hills.

 

a. 'The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him ³ and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshek and Tubal.  I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army—your horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords.  Persia, Cush^[ and Put will be with them, all with shields and helmets, also Gomer with all its troops, and Beth Togarmah from the far north with all its troops—the many nations with you.(Ez.38:1-6)

 

That this won't happen before or in the 3.5 year Endtime but shortly thereafter is indicated by these verses:

b. 'After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathered from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety.' (Ez.38:8)

c.  ^'You will say, “I will invade a land of unwalled villages; I will attack a peaceful and unsuspecting people—all of them living without walls and without gates and bars. ' (Ez.38:11)

d. “Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: In that day, when my people Israel are living in safety, will you not take notice of it? (Ez.38:16)

 

The countries from which the attacking armies come, could be the following:

Gog (Rosh in some translations): The land north of the Black Sea. This is a reference to modern Russia or at least parts of it in this area north of the Black Sea.

Magog: Magog was the ancient land of the Schythians. This land is now what we call Central Asia (the "Stans") and possibly includes parts or all of Afghanistan.

Meshek (also Meshech) : Located within modern Turkey.

Tubal: Located within modern Turkey.

Persia: The ancient land of Persia is located in modern Iran. In fact, Iran was called Persia until 1935, less than 100 years ago.

Ethiopia (also Cush) : Not modern Ethiopia, but known as the area now called Sudan (now North Sudan and perhaps parts of South Sudan).

Put: Modern Libya, possibly extending west beyond Libya to other North African nations.

Gomer: Located within modern Turkey.

Beth Togarmah: Located within modern Turkey.

 

So, after Jesus' return, armies out of Russia, Turkey, Iran and Northern Africa woud attack the holy land. Iran (Persia) is already lined up with Russia. Turkey's position is constantly switching. When the US-empire is destroyed, it will swiftly choose Russia's side. Northern Africa is a region where Russia is building military power - Libya and Sudan. Their destruction will be as complet at that of the USA and its vassals that will have been destroyed at Jesus' return on the white horse (Revelation 19).

In the Endtime, an image would be made of 'the beast out of the sea', which is the USA with all its vassals and proxies, its complete worldwide network, encompassing large parts of the world. This image is not a statue, as is often portrayed in films. It is also not a copy of Roman culture by the last empire, the USA. The image of the beast is a digital copy of everything pertaining to the empire, all assets - natural, financial, industrial, political, judicial, everything having any value - together with a digital copy of all people belonging to it, 'those that dwell on the earth'. Important steps toward the creation of such a digital copy of the Western world have been made with the Internet, Artificial Intelligence, Digital money and tokenization. This 'tokenization' could very well be the last step because it implies the making of a digital copy of all items. This digital 'image of the beast' will be adjusted in real time for the myriads of transactions that take place every second by the millions that wil become part of the image of the beast. The Bible calls this their allegiance or worship of the image. A digital copy of each participant of the image of the beast is made through 'the mark of the beast' - a mark on the right hand or forehead, which is to be scanned at each transaction.

 

a. 'And it deceives them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causes 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 man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.' (Rev.13:14-17) 'It' = 'beast out of the earth' = Zionist Israel that is in control of all software development concerning the image of the beast' - 'the beast' = the US-empire. All spyware on humanity in the West comes from Israeli companies. The US and Israel are intertwined.

(Rev.13:14-17) 'It' = 'beast out of the earth' = Zionist Israel that is in control of all software development concerning the image of the beast' - 'the beast' = the US-empire. All spyware on humanity in the West comes from Israeli companies. The US and Israel are intertwined.
