Disarmed:
A biology professor was questioned by one of his Bible Belt students, “What
would it take for you to believe there is a god, him coming down here and
kicking you in the ass?” The professor simply replied, “Yep, that would do it.”
Yes,
Disarmed, it seems that that is what is going to happen. Everything in mounting
up and I expect some spectacular things to happen this year already. That’s enough
for me to believe. Cofty, if you see the following things happening, exactly as
prophesied, would you then believe?
Prophecy:
Daniel
warned of an impending “great tribulation” (Dan. 12:1). Jesus also referred to the Great Tribulation.
If the days were not cut short, no flesh would be saved (Matt. 24:21, 22; Mark 13:20). Haggai warns: “Moreover,
the LORD who rules over all says: ‘In just a little while I will once again
shake the sky[1]
and the earth, the sea and the dry ground’” (Hag. 2:6 NET; cf. Hebr. 12:26-29).
Luke
(21:25, 26 NET) gives us an idea of what’s in store: “And there will be signs
in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth nations will be in distress,
anxious over the roaring of the sea and the surging waves. People will be
fainting from fear and from the expectation of what is coming on the world, for
the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” The opening of the sixth seal in the
book of Revelation adds the necessary detail:
Then I looked when the Lamb opened the sixth seal, and
a huge earthquake[2]
took place; the sun became as black as sackcloth made of hair, and the full
moon became blood red; and the stars[3] in the
sky fell to the earth like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when shaken by a
fierce wind. The sky was split apart like a scroll being rolled up[4], and
every mountain and island was moved from its place.[5]
Then the kings of the earth, the very important
people, the generals, the rich, the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid
themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They said to the
mountains and to the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of the one
who is seated on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb, because the great
day of their wrath has come, and who is able to withstand it?”[6] Rev. 6:12-17 NET.
Evidence:
1) Increased earthquake
activity: For up-to-date information, download Earthquake 3D Free Edition.
2) Volcanic activity: Approximately
36 active volcanoes worldwide (https://earthquakes.volcanodiscovery.com/).
3) Increased meteor activity (http://www.amsmeteors.org/meteor-showers/2017-meteor-shower-list/).
4)
Poleshift: Recent changes in magnetic north. Magnetic north use to move 15
km/year. Now it does 15 km per day. For those that notice such things, sun is
not coming up where it use to. The earth is 25 degrees or more out of kilter.
5)
Climate change: This is not only occurring on earth only but to all the planets
in our solar system.
6) Major underground shelters for the elite, especially in Europe, Russia and USA.
[1] Or “the heavens.” The same Hebrew word, shamayim, may be translated “sky” or “heavens” depending on the
context. Although many English versions translate the term as “heavens” here,
the other three elements present in this context (earth, sea, dry ground)
suggest “sky” is in view (see NET footnote).
[2] On the one hand, this might not be a literal earthquake, but
earth-shaking events. It is unlikely that the kings and important people would
want to hide underground for protection after a big earthquake. On the other
hand, a mega-quake in and along the Ring of Fire could trigger dormant
volcanoes. The ash of more than five of these erupting volcanoes could block
out the sun, causing a mini ice-age.
[3] This could refer to meteors. On the star s. μάγος 1.) Falling fr.
heaven in the last tribulation Mt
24:29; Mk 13:25;
Rv 6:13 (all three Is 13:9-11; cp. Artem. 2, 36
p. 137, 15 καταπίπτοντες εἰς γῆν οἱ ἀστέρες). Other pass. that associate pers.
w. celestial bodies—a practice going back largely, as some hold, to Babyl.
apocalyptic—are 8:11, 12; 12:1, 4, which also contain the word ἀ.—ἀστέρες πλανῆται
wandering stars (Cicero, De Nat. Deor. of stars ‘quae falso vocantur
errantes’), perh. meteors, typical of dissident teachers Jd 13 (cp. En 18:14; also chap.
21). See BDAG.
[4] Isaiah reminds us that God’s indignation is against all nations and
national groups (cf. Is. 34:1-4).
[5] This describes major disruptions caused by a pole shift (cf. Is. 24:1, 19, 20; Jer. 4:23-26).
[6] God’s wrath is directed at all the inhabitants of the earth,
especially the proud and the arrogant (cf. Is. 2:10-12, 17, 19-22 NET).
