An Outline for the End

As Daniel and Revelation are keys to one another to their understanding, I am the key to the understanding of both. This is obvious to me if for no other reason than I and my family are the only family on earth who "weep and howl for the misery about to come." Today is an exceptional time in that it is one of the very few times when faith has degenerated to the point of virtual extinction. For 15 years I have worn myself out not only winning my own family but also trying to get my extended family and friends and churches around the world to seriously consider what Christ meant when He said, "When I come will there be faith on earth?" in light of the Reformation 500 years ago. The Reformation is a virtual non-event in the hearts of so-called Christians today; why, even Lutherans have little to do with what he wrote and believed. Yet in his writings there is embedded a heart that truly yearned after the faith once for all delivered to the Saints-of which Luther was OBVIOUSLY one of the greatest.

No one sees a reason to WEEP AND HOWL so smug are the fraternal twins the world and the church. This Laodicean ooze is in the process of being vomited up by Christ and destroyed; Christ's stomach is rumbling with their sickness at this very moment. Oh! How smug the world is in its "faith." Many thanks to America and its perverted form of Democracy for the unleashing of the human spirit wherein the Individual is {religiously} EXPECTED to fully express himself. Oops, God forgive me, I must include "herself" also. Democracy is ungodly enough in its own right without what it has sunken to in my beloved country which wrongly believes it is its duty to convert the world to the Religion of Democracy. America has become fall-down drunk on its mission to conquer the world with its liberating gospel of full expression without regard for true reasonableness or morality. America was built on the mantra, "If it is self-evident, it is godly to do it, even if it involves the witchcraft of rebellion." This "reasonableness" has advanced to the point where truly reasonable persons dare not open their mouth for fear of an onslaught of perverse public protests.

Well, as Luther said, "If the rock is too heavy…" The Rock of spiritual ignorance among the people and nations of the world is too heavy even for Christ to move to repentance, though He will move it over the edge of Hell. There is absolutely NO DIFFERENCE today between the church and the world, other than that on Sunday morning some are screwing the wrong person, and some are screwing God. They have ALL BECOME ADULTERERS AND ADULTERESSES. And they won't weep and howl, so secure are they in their just cause, just life, and just about everything.

I am confirming Daniel's prophecy to the Jews-his people. They will be restored about the middle of the Tribulation after false Jews reestablish the Temple System which is destroyed about the middle of the Great Tribulation.

I am telling you that Democracy is the vehicle through which Antichrist's rule is made possible.

The wrath of God is coming very soon on a 500-year-old church for its desecration of the Reformation-an event second only to the Resurrection in the last 2,000 years.

Anyone can say these things, but there is no real comfort of Holy Spirt-zeal unless these words come from the mouth of a prophet of God. Micah 3:7 "For the LORD GOD does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets." "My" words will bring comfort to those deserving of comfort when they are most in need of comfort.

I have no word or inclination regarding us, only that we are a family, a unit I would cherish remaining a unit.

In Rev. 4:1 the Church Age is over, and there is a one-family transition to the New World, just as Noah was transitional between theocracy and human government.

The Tribulation is a tragedy with a most happy ending: The Meek shall inherit the earth, and the Jew will be grafted back into the Church.

Revelation is a WARNING to us not to despise the Word which allows the heart to become hard to the point of blasphemy against the Spirit, which is feeling good about error and darkness and defending it-as the world religion of Antichrist will do.

Man will not be humbled, which our 9/11 teaches us. "Our cause is just!" Compare how Egypt responded to the Ten Plagues.

There will be an unholy trinity of the Dragon, the Beast and the False Prophet, and they will have authority for 42 months (13:1). An Image is made and breath is given to it (13:5). The Beast is a political leader that demands worship. Most world leaders instinctively believe they have the right to be worshipped. Nebuchadnezzar is a classic example of this. In the beast you have the quest of Adam fulfilled-human worship.

"MYSTERY Babylon" is the great mother of prostitutes and earth's abominations (17:5). A final false religion will seduce the people of the world. John marveled at this mystery; I believe because the "church" had become the germinal basis of a world religion. This religion is devoured by the Beast and the kings in league with him (17:8).

This Woman is a very great city with dominion (17:18). I believe it is the Tower of Babel FULLY DEVELOPED and towering over the whole world. It is a worldwide city with commerce and religion as its glue.

In Chapter 18 we have the fall of Babylon; the god of mammon is finally judged and the prostitutes of the earth cannot weep and howl enough. Our 9/11 should have been a wake-up call for the whole world to repent of its greed and godlessness. Instead, it confirmed itself in error. God plainly tells His people to COME OUT OF HER OR BE DESTROYED WITH HER (18:4). The heart of a Saint has no business being in the System. And while this System is being judged, it will be preoccupied with reestablishing its security rather than repenting.

Armageddon and its prelude consist of Daniel's "North, South and East." Antichrist is the "West."

There will be an ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION, which will be the complete worship of Man/Satan. This takes place about mid-Tribulation.

In Chapter 8 we have a worshipful reverence, as evidenced by silence, as if Heaven was centering itself for the horror of what was coming. This is the vengeance of the Saints which has built up over 6,000 years, because they have pleaded and begged, mostly to no avail.

The Temple Court is given to the Gentiles for 42 months. The Two Witnesses preside for 1,260 days and are a thorn to Antichrist as Elijah was a thorn to Ahab. Ahab accused Elijah of "troubling Israel."

Satan is cast out of Heaven (12:7). I believe this is at the 3 ½ year mark plus.

The Beast comes forth from humanity, also about the 3 ½ year mark. Satan gives him his power, throne and great authority (Ch. 13). Verse 4 reveals Satan and the Beast will be worshipped and that no one can "fight against him." The Beast is allowed to have a dirty, blasphemous mouth for 42 months-compare Daniel 1:36. He mocks all True Religion of all time and makes war on the Saints (13:7). Verse 8 tells us the whole world worships the Beast.

13:11 states that "another beast" comes out of the earth. This Beast makes the earth worship the primary Beast (v. 12) and "makes an image for the beast that was wounded" (v. 14). I believe this wound of the Beast is to do for the world what the wound of Christ does for His followers.

In Chapter 14 Christ is on Mt. Zion with His 144,000. There is a final warning to repent. They do not, and the blood reaches to the horses' bridles for 184 miles.

The bowl judgments are in Ch. 16. NO REPENTANCE. Demonic frogs come out of the mouth of the Dragon, the Beast, and the False Prophet and hoodwink the world to assemble for battle (v. 13). Christ declares, "I COME AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT." The seventh bowl judgment is the greatest earthquake ever whereby the cities of the world are felled, and the "great city" is split into three parts. God sends 100-pound hailstones, and still people curse God rather than repent (v. 17)

I believe the Great Prostitute of Chapter 17 is the combined estates of church and state, fully perverted-Wall Street and Rome combined, as it were. Both are drunk with the blood of the Saints-especially the State. But they are judged; the "church" is devoured by the Beast, and the State is conquered by Christ.

Chapter 20 includes the 1,000-year reign of Christ, the Last Battle and the Great White Throne Judgment.

Chapter 21 speaks of the New Heaven, the New Earth and New Jerusalem, which is 1,400 miles cubed. There will be NO TEMPLE in the eternal state.

Chapter 22 relates that the NATIONS will be supplied with spiritual sustenance by Trees of Life on either side of the River.
