Prophecy Timeline: Iran, Israel, & World War III
00:04:19

|
| But where do you believe we are in the prophetic timeline? | |
| Sure. | |
| And all of this about Revelation that I just threw out there. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And also, and also, Dave, talk to us about Matthew 24. | |
| You talk about Matthew. | |
| Honey, that's a month's lesson. | |
| Real quick. | |
| Dave can do this. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So in the broad spectrum, I can get to Matthew 24, but all the way back from the Old Testament prophecies, Daniel, Ezekiel, Zachariah, all those Old Testament prophets, all the way to Revelation chapter 22, including Matthew 24, God give us a timeline of events to follow. | |
| And some of them would be messianic prophecies that were foretelling the first coming of Jesus Christ. | |
| And then there were prophecies concerning his second coming. | |
| I want your viewers to be very clear on this point, is that most of the prophecies concerning the second coming of Jesus Christ have already come to pass. | |
| And on this huge timeline that God has given us, the next two events to occur are the sixth trumpet war, which is a war that will emanate out of the Middle East region. | |
| It's from the Revelation chapter 9, verse 13 through 21. | |
| The Bible says, loose the four angels, which are bound in the great river Euphrates, for to kill one-third the part of mankind, and that there would be a 200 million man army involved in that war. | |
| So, and I don't even really like to talk about that prophecy because it's so ominous. | |
| But one as a result of this war that's coming, it could happen at any time if it has not already begun. | |
| Because many people believe that with what's going on with Iran and Israel and the United States, that we started World War III years ago and that it just hasn't escalated to the point where we will, it's going to become nuclear. | |
| But the Bible says as a result of this war, that one-third of the world's population will be destroyed. | |
| I'm not sensationalizing that. | |
| You can read Revelation 9, 13 through 21. | |
| You'll see what I'm saying is the truth. | |
| One-third of the world's population is going to be destroyed. | |
| And it's going to come out of the Middle East, the Euphrates River region, which is housed in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran. | |
| And also, there's going to be a 200 million man army involved. | |
| Well, you understand that China just signed a 25-year pact with Iran. | |
| So just as much as we're allies with Israel, Iran's allies is Russia and China. | |
| And so if we were to get involved in them, if we were to, let's say, go in and just wipe out their nuclear aspirations, that could really pull China and Russia in. | |
| And then you're talking about World War III tomorrow morning. | |
| Will that be the event that leads to World War III? | |
| Not sure. | |
| However, on this timeline, the Sixth Trumpet War is one of the things that we watch. | |
| I watch the Euphrates River region like a hawk in the news every day because I know that there will come a spark at some time that starts that war and that's going to escalate to the point where we're in full-on World War III. | |
| You say, well, how do you know that's one of the next prophecies to occur? | |
| Because, like I said, that's the sixth trumpet war. | |
| The first five trumpets have already occurred. | |
| Now, a lot of people don't understand this. | |
| I know there's a teaching out there, and we can go down a million side roads on all of this, you guys. | |
| But there's a teaching that says, hey, you know, the final seven, all of this, the seals, trumpets, and vials in the book of Revelation all happened during the final seven years. | |
| It's our opinion that that's simply not the case. | |
| That many of the seals and many of the trumpets have already occurred. | |
|
Sixth Trumpet War

|
|
| The first five trumpets have already occurred. | |
| It's easy to prove that. | |
| Now, that's a Bible study, but I could prove it. | |
| The first trumpet, World War I. Second trumpet, World War II. | |
| The third trumpet, the Chernobyl nuclear accident. | |
| Fourth trumpet, the speeding up of time with the tearing down of the baloom wall and the beginning of the process of globalization. | |
| And then the fifth trumpet with the Iraq war with Saddam Hussein in 9091. | |
| So the sixth trumpet is one of the sixth trumpet war is one of the next prophecies to occur on God's prophetic timeline. | |
| So we're way off into this thing. | |
| Then the other one, there's two, is this peace agreement that Mondo just brought up was that this peace agreement that Irvin Baxter has been teaching for decades now. | |
| There's going to be a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians. | |
| Now, I know right now that looks impossible, but there's going to be a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians. | |
| Once that peace agreement is signed, that has the five characteristics, biblical characteristics of that specific peace agreement. | |
| In other words, the Abraham Accords was signed in September of last year, but that was not the agreement because it didn't have the characteristics to that agreement. | |
| But there's going to be one signed in the very near future. | |
| Once that peace agreement is signed, this is Daniel 9:27. | |
| Once that peace agreement is signed, the Bible says he, the Antichrist, will confirm that covenant with many for a seven-year period. | |
| This will be Daniel's 70th week. | |
| At the end of that final seven-year period, that's the second coming of Jesus Christ, the Battle of Armageddon. | |
| So these are the next two events that we're watching for on this timeline. | |
| Once that happens, once that peace agreement is signed, we got seven years left. | |
| Now, that doesn't end everything. | |
| That's the second coming of Jesus Christ, the Battle of Armageddon. | |
| Then you got another thousand years left of God's reign here on the earth. | |
| But on this timeline that we've been given, we've only got a very short period of time left. | |
| Most of those prophecies have already occurred, and that's where we're at. | |
| So if you want me to mention Matthew 24, the Olivet Discourse, they set Jesus down on the Mount of Olives and they said, hey, tell us, what's going to be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age? | |
| In the rest of that chapter, he's talking to us, not the apostles. | |
| He's answering the question, the end of this age, which is not the end of the world. | |
| The King James Version says world there, but if you go to the original Greek, it's A-I-O-N, which means age. | |
| It's the at the time of the second coming of Jesus Christ, is what he's referring to. | |
| And so he wasn't referring to his first coming because he was sitting there talking to them. | |
| So he goes all the way down through there. | |
| Hey, you're going to see wars and rumors of wars, which is talked about in Revelation. | |
| And in Matthew 24, 15 through 21, he says, and this gospel of the kingdom will be preached into the whole world. | |
| Then the end is going to come. | |
| When you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, then let them which be in Judea flee, for then is going to be great tribulation, such as never been before, never shall be again. | |
| The abomination of desolation, which is when the Antichrist stands in a rebuilt Jewish temple, claiming to be God, that happens three and a half years into that final seven years. | |
| And then Jesus said, then's going to be great tribulation, such as never was before, and it's never going to be again. | |
| So the great tribulation, and I know that we could go down another rabbit trail with this, but the great tribulation, according to the Bible, only lasts three and a half years. | |
| There is a scriptural final seven-year period, but Jesus specifically tells us that the great tribulation only lasts the final three and one-half years. | |
| There are many times in the Bible when it refers to that three and a half-year period or the great tribulation, it says that it will be time, times, and half of times, which is three and a half years, 42 months, or 1,260 days. | |
| All of them point to a three and a half year tribulation period. | |
| Then, in Matthew 24, going back to that, Jesus said immediately after the tribulation of those days, will the sun be darkened, moon shall not give her light, stars will fall from heaven, the powers of heaven shall be shaken. | |
| Then would you see the sign of the Son of Man coming in heaven? | |
| He will come with his angels, the sound of a great trumpet, send his angels to gather the elect from the earth. | |
| That's going to be the second coming of Jesus Christ, which in our opinion is when the rapture occurs, one simultaneous event. | |
| And I know that, you know, it messes with people's theology, but that's the way we see it. | |
| And then that wraps everything up. | |
| That's when the rapture occurs and we go off into the 1,000-year millennial reign. | |
| So on this timeline, this huge timeline God has given us, it's our opinion. | |
