TonusOH2 days agoSo... the end is upon us?
Seventh Period (2019-2025)
The end of the gentile periods defines the beginning of righteous order upon the earth.
12“The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. 13They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast. 14They will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.”

Sea Breeze2 days agoI thought the indwelling of the Holy Spirit did this.
Babylon’s fall ensures that God’s chosen servants will uphold His law upon the earth.
I am not sure what you mean by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. This mean that people can rest assured that when God brings down Babylon, that His order is next to take place.

Babylon The Great
by EisMe inbabylon the great: a prophetic warning.
babylon the great is not just a city—it is the system that governs the world economy.
this was god's first judgment against economic babylon, but it would not be his last.. the three parts of babylon's economy.

The things I post are in no way biased. I am not political, nor do I claim to represent any one national group. I am one with The Kingdom of God, which will bring together all national groups as one people. Pray for The Kingdom. Build your faith in order to endure anything that might come your way. Third-world countries that have to endure trials in warfare have seen the worst of it all. It's time that those who are suffering to be relieved of their pain.

TonusOH, Jeffro, The data I shared regarding global warming was relevant only to 7000 years, which is the time period that humans have lived upon this planet. Babylon will have its final fall within the time the 8th king is destroyed. Four years is the term of Trump, correct? He is the 8th king. God, not man, is bringing it down. Rome is ancient history. Reflect upon the times we are in. No nation, country, or city has power over all kings, or rulers upon this earth. The study of prophecy requires insight. This insight is given to those that have complete faith in God.

The End of the Times of the Gentiles and the Restoration of the Kingdom
The Final Stage of God’s Plan on Earth
The Fulfillment of Prophecy: The End of the Gentile Age
The Times of the Gentiles refer to the period in which Gentile nations control Jerusalem, as stated by Jesus in Luke 21:24:
"Jerusalem will be trampled by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled."
This period marks a temporary rule by worldly powers until God’s Kingdom is fully established. According to prophecy, this age is measured in cycles, each lasting 42 months, amounting to seven total periods:
- First Period (2001-2004) – The Kingdom was established on September 11, 2001, marking the transition into divine restoration.
- Second Period (2004-2007) – Global turmoil increases, economic shifts begin.
- Third Period (2007-2010) – The financial collapse of 2008, weakening Babylon’s economy.
- Fourth Period (2010-2013) – The rise of political instability, fragmentation of nations.
- Fifth Period (2013-2016) – Increasing signs of the beast’s influence across governments.
- Sixth Period (2016-2019) – The emergence of the eighth king, fulfilling Revelation 17.
- Seventh Period (2019-2025) – The final stage before restoration—Babylon’s downfall, the sealing of the 144,000, and divine governance.
Now, we stand at the final moment—where God’s authority will be fully manifested.
The Twelve Gates and the Restoration of Divine Order
The New Jerusalem descends from heaven (Revelation 21:2), symbolizing the Kingdom’s earthly reign. The city is structured with twelve gates, representing the twelve tribes of Israel:
"It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel." (Revelation 21:12)
This fulfillment ensures:
- Spiritual unity among God’s people.
- Restored governance under divine law and righteousness.
- The rightful inheritance of those sealed for the Kingdom.
The 144,000: Chosen to Reign in the Kingdom
God has sealed His faithful servants, chosen from the twelve tribes (Revelation 7). Their purpose in the Kingdom is clear:
- They serve as priests, judges, and leaders, ensuring righteous governance.
- They carry God’s law, delivering truth and justice on earth.
- They are witnesses, standing in testimony to God’s victory over Babylon.
The Earthly Throne of David and Divine Leadership
God has promised that David’s throne will be reestablished upon the earth:
"I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom." (2 Samuel 7:12)
This confirms:
- Jesus reigns in heaven, but earthly order must also be restored.
- The first appointed king governs under Christ’s divine rulership.
- Elijah, the forerunner of restoration, plays a key prophetic role.
The Final Battle: Divine Order in Heaven and Earth
Satan and his followers rebelled against divine order, but restoration must occur both in heaven and on earth. Revelation foretells that Satan will be released once more, testing the Kingdom before final victory:
"When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations." (Revelation 20:7-8)
Therefore:
- The Kingdom on earth must be firmly established.
- Divine governance must mirror heaven’s rule.
- The final confrontation ensures everlasting peace.
The Path Forward: Establishing Righteousness
The Times of the Gentiles have ended, and the Kingdom is now being formed. Babylon’s fall ensures that God’s chosen servants will uphold His law upon the earth.

Climate Change: Past vs. Present—A 7,000-Year Perspective
Throughout history, Earth's climate has naturally fluctuated due to factors like solar activity, volcanic eruptions, and ocean currents. However, the past 7,000 years have been relatively stable—until now.
Past Climate Shifts (7,000 Years Ago to Present)
- Holocene Climate Optimum (roughly 7,000–5,000 years ago): A warm period that allowed civilizations to flourish.
- Medieval Warm Period (950–1250 AD): A mild warming phase, but not global in scale.
- Little Ice Age (1300–1850 AD): A cooler period that affected agriculture and societies.
- Pre-Industrial Climate Stability (1850–1900 AD): Temperatures remained relatively steady.
Modern Climate Change (20th Century–Present)
Unlike past natural fluctuations, today’s warming is human-driven and accelerating:
- Since 1900, global temperatures have risen by over 1°C—a rate ten times faster than past natural warming events.
- Carbon dioxide levels are at their highest in 800,000 years, primarily due to fossil fuel burning.
- Extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and ecosystem disruptions are occurring at an unprecedented pace.
Biblical Prophecy and Climate Change
The Bible describes dramatic changes to the earth in connection with prophetic events:
- Matthew 24:29: “The powers of the heavens will be shaken.”
- Mark 13:25: “The stars will fall from the sky.”
- Luke 21:26: “People will faint from fear and anxiety over what is coming upon the world.”
- 2 Peter 3:10: “The elements will become intensely hot and the earth and its works will be exposed.”
These scriptures describe a time of global instability, marked by upheavals in the natural world. The increasing heat, storms, and environmental collapse align with what is unfolding today, leading many to question whether prophecy is being fulfilled.
Why This Matters
While past climate shifts took thousands of years, today’s warming is happening within decades. The consequences—melting ice caps, stronger storms, and food insecurity—are not just predictions but realities unfolding now. For those who view scripture as truth, this alignment between prophecy and environmental shifts serves as further confirmation of biblical accuracy.

Hey, if America was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for us!
...anyway: people have been making these sorts of predictions for centuries. There are endless Bible verses that can be interpreted to match the world's circumstances, and lots of visions and dreams filled with symbolism that is just begging to be applied to whatever we want.
What surprises me the most is that the people making these predictions are very much aware that others have been doing the same thing and failing every single time. But they are confident that they are the exception and that they will get it right. In some cases, like the WTS and people like Harold Camping, they keep making predictions even after they got it wrong!
The more things change, the more they stay the same.Oh, really? Global warming, which is leading to the destruction of this planet has happened before? Wake up and smell the coffee. It is brewing!!

EisMe
9.“This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. 10.They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while. 11.The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction. Revelation 17: 9-11 NIV
(Donald Trump recently referred to himself as "the king" in a social media post, sparking reactions for its monarchic tone. Critics viewed this as an overstep of authority, adding to debates about leadership and power. Is Donald Trump the 8th King?)
Scholars connect the seven kings in Revelation to the seven hills/continents, symbolizing world powers across history. This interpretation highlights U.S. dominance through its economy, military, culture, and politics. The eighth king, often seen as a culmination of rebellion against God, symbolizes the ultimate defeat of evil.
The Eighth King: A Prophetic Connection
Revelation 17:11 describes the eighth king as one who "belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction." This prophecy finds a striking parallel in modern times. Donald Trump, following George W. Bush, represents a continuation of the same political lineage--the scarlet beast tied to the GOP, the red party. Both leaders presided during pivotal moments of global significance, with Trump's presidency marked by his fall and potential return, aligning with the prophecy of the beast that "was, and is not, and yet will be" (Revelation 17:8).
The GOP's dominance under both Bush and Trump, controlling the Senate and Congress, underscores their shared authority. Trump's re-emergence as a political force mirrors the cyclical nature of the eighth king, stemming from the seventh, as foretold in scripture. However, the prophecy also foretells the eighth king's destruction--a fate that remains shrouded in mystery. Whether through removal, downfall, or divine intervention by Jesus Christ, the manner of this destruction is known only to God.Revelation 19:11: "I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice, he judges and wages war."
Revelation 19:12-13: The rider has eyes like blazing fire, wears many crowns, and has a name written that no one knows but himself. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.
Revelation 19:14: The armies of heaven follow him, also riding white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.
Revelation 19:15-16: From his mouth comes a sharp sword to strike down the nations. He rules with an iron scepter and treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and thigh is written: "King of Kings and Lord of Lords.""The King of Kings and Lord of Lords rides forth in victory, bringing justice and fulfillment to the prophecies of old."
Seven Heads as Seven World Powers
Summary of Views on the First Six World Powers
Egypt

Seventh World Power: United States
Based upon that which is listed below, the United States stands as the seventh world power due to its unparalleled global influence. This interpretation is supported by:
1. Economic Dominance: The U.S. plays a pivotal role in global finance and trade, impacting economies worldwide.
2. Military Strength: With a formidable military presence, the U.S. ensures global security and influences international relations.

· Paul M. Hoskins: Interprets the seventh king as a future ruler from the Abyss, connected to an eighth king that holds substantial power.
· Adventist Interpreters: Some associate the seventh king with recent popes, noting that Pope Benedict XVI's short papacy could signify the seventh king.
· Various Commentaries: Propose that the seventh king might be a collective group of monarchies rather than a single entity, echoing the fragmentation of ancient Rome.
· The United States is recognized as the seventh world power, marked by its unparalleled influence. This status is evidenced by its economic dominance, military strength, cultural reach, and political alliances.
The Beast with Seven Heads
Revelation 13:1-2 (NIV)
1. "The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. 2. The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority."
The heads represent world powers, as supported by Revelation 17:9-11, which describes a woman sitting on a beast with seven heads and ten horns:
Verse 9: "This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits."
Verse 10: "They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while."
Verse 11: "The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction."
The seven heads also represent the seven continents, emphasizing the global nature of these powers:
Seven Continents
1. Africa: Known for its diverse cultures, landscapes, and rich history.
2. Antarctica: The coldest continent, covered almost entirely by ice, with no permanent human population.
3. Asia: The largest continent, home to the majority of the world's population and many ancient civilizations.
4. Europe: Known for its influential history, culture, and economies, as well as its diverse nations.
5. North America: Comprising countries like the United States, Canada, and Mexico, known for its economic and cultural impact.
6. Australia: The smallest continent, known for its unique wildlife and landscapes.
7. South America: Known for its rainforests, mountains, and vibrant cultures.
The Beast with Ten Horns
Revelation 17:12-13 (NIV)
12. "The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast.
13. They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast."
Daniel 7:7-8 (NIV)
7. "After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast--terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns." 8."While I was thinking about the horns, there before me was another horn, a little one, which came up among them; and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like the eyes of a human being and a mouth that spoke boastfully."
Ten Horns as the United States Senate
· Authority and Power: The Senate has the power to make critical decisions, including authorizing military actions, approving treaties, and confirming executive appointments, thereby wielding significant influence over national and international policies.
· Unified Purpose: The Senate often works collectively to pass laws and policies, reflecting the unified purpose of the ten horns. Despite political differences, the necessity for legislative action brings senators together in critical moments.
· Representative Body: The Senate, with its 100 members, serves as a powerful governing authority within the United States, representing the interests of the states and the people.
· Symbolic Unity: The number ten, being a multiple of 100, emphasizes the symbolic representation of the Senate. It highlights the completeness and collective power of this legislative body.
The Role of Horns in Prophetic Imagery
· Symbolism in Biblical Prophecy: Horns are frequently used as symbols of kings or rulers in the Bible, especially in the book of Daniel.
· Daniel 7 and the Fourth Beast: The ten horns on the fourth beast symbolize ten kings emerging from the kingdom, illustrating their leadership within a larger entity.
· The Little Horn: The "little horn" that uproots three others represents a leader who rises to prominence, showcasing the connection between horns and individual rulers.
· Biblical Consistency: Across prophetic texts, the horn imagery consistently ties to authority, power, and influence held by leaders within their domains.
The Beast out of the Earth
Through a series of publications, I will explain how the events of 9/11 are represented in Revelation, Chapter 13: "Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed." (Revelation 13:11-12, NIV)
The two horns of this beast symbolize two U.S. Presidents—the 7th and 8th kings. In biblical prophecy, horns often represent individual leaders, as seen in Daniel. The President of the United States wields significant authority, exercising the power of the first beast (Revelation 13:1).
During 9/11, President George W. Bush Jr., under the GOP, held this authority. Now, President Donald Trump exercises the same authority under the GOP, extending Bush’s leadership.
The prophecy foretells that the 8th king will go off into destruction. Could this mean Trump will be removed within his term? Perhaps the answer lies in the ultimate authority of Jesus Christ. -
