I assume you are Orthodox, so I'll reply in that manner.
How are you so sure that the day of judgment is at that exact time? You are using gematria and a looser interpretation of Scripture, both of which resemble modern protestant practices. Do not be offended when I say this, but I fear you may be in prelest. Even more so because you mentioned visions, which are false most of the time. You should get in touch with a spiritual father and not rely on your own cognition in this improper manner. Many times people became spiritually deluded like this.

>But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.

Ask yourself this: am I worthy of receiving a vision, from the Holy Spirit itself?
God won't be mad if you deny His visions if they're true, since He knows the risks of accepting false knowledge from false angels.

While I do think this is the end of something (not the world), namely the end of the current world order as you see more and more states becoming essentially failed ones (Canada would be an example), this latest war would decide whether Israel can keep projecting power onto ze goyims or if Iran proves you can at the very least go by inertia, neither side is clearly winning this one. The first one would have to put boots on the ground and risk whatever there is to risk, the second has been fundamentally crippled and unless they have the magical MAD card that everyone seems to talk about that prevents le heckin' wars they're in a tough spot too, but personally no I don't think it's the end of the world

I am not worthy of anything. all my life i've despised and disregarded those who say "the time is nigh", but certain details stuck with me. I've become what I hated. I've had this prophecy by a certain Orthodox elder occupying my mind for a while. I just can't stop noticing patterns, and I've been keeping them to myself for years, but after this Iran conflict happened to exactly match what i thought were delusions, I've felt this immense push to tell at least some group about it to get it out of my chest. This is the first and only place I've decided to publish it. As Revelation says, at first it was like honey in my mouth, a certain happiness in finding what might be the truth, but then it turned bitter in my stomach as I grieved about the gravity of the situation. I will never be able to tell anyone about this without sounding like any other crazy phony doomsayer. I have written what I have written, I hope that at least one person might see it, and at least be inspired to come to Christ through it. Not one can know how the timing or the mysteries of God's works. I've written it knowing full well much mockery that will follow it. It is not easy to explain myself.

I don't like this. It's just like dispensationalism but for low IQ gayreek schizos. No I haven't managed to read the whole thing. But with every second I'm continuing it gets worse and worse. Nothing ever happens.

I am going to sleep now. Before I go I want to clarify one thing. Because of my faulty writing there was a misunderstanding. I was trying to say that it was an analyzing mindset and the Love of the Father and the direction of the Holy Spirit that led me to Christ. To Christ. As in, that's how I came to Christ, the analysis of the Scriptures was only one part of it. I did not intend to make it sound like this was a prophecy given to me by the Holy Spirit or something like that, Lord have mercy. Good night.

Now forgive me if I sounded harsh, since I am bitter from my continual sin. I am not in despair, but this feeling of frustration is all over me. I need to do something with myself instead of wasting my days.
Take it as a well meaning warning from me since I was worried for you.

Anyhow, I'm so skeptical of things like these. You may even be right about things, but I am hesitant to accept this knowledge without scrutiny.

I think I figured out something else. The "abomination that makes desolate" that is "set up" in the temple is the return of animal sacrifice. it is an absolute abomination in the sight of God, because jews are essentially saying "The blood of the Son of God means nothing for us, we will build back the temple that was destroyed in 70 AD, set up an altar there and slay a mere animal for the remission of sins like our ancestors did." This has got to be the biggest insult to God, because not only is it straight up blasphemy of the highest order but also because it requires deliberate coordinated action. And it makes you "desolate" because by doing this you eternally reject the blood of Christ. All the politicians of this world have to go to that wailing wall in israel and bow down before it as an affirmation of this plan. The closing of the stait of hormuz is only an excuse, they will say "look, the price of petrol is too high and this affects everyone so we have to destroy Iran's military so everyone can benefit from it, we are the good guys!" while the whole time petrol was only the red herring, the real plan is to get iran out of the way so they can build that accursed temple. After they destroy Iran's military might there will be no one left to interrupt the building of the temple. Right after this, on september 11 2026 they will say "okay the nuking of iran was an one-time only exception since we agreed that petrol prices were the common benefit of everyone. Now that's over, let's all agree to never use nuclear weapons again, we are the good guys!" while the whole time, the reason they'll ban nuclear weapons is so that no one can interrupt the building of the temple. This is both in daniel's visions and also in revelation, Antichrist makes an agreement with all the nations promising safety, and on the 3.5 year mark he breaks his own promise. 3.5 year mark also probably coincides with the completion of the temple and the first animal is sacrificed on the altar. the 3.5 year mark also coincides with the arrival of Asteroid apophis, the Wormwood in Revelation. This will be the "crap hits the fan" moment where everything will unravel and the nukes will fall as no nation will trust the other anymore. After the nukes fall, then starts the war of armageddon, as the 200million man army from the east will charge to that temple in jerusalem that is the cause of all this. they will line up in the valley of megiddo, which is the biggest flat area in the world which napoleon called "the most natural battlefield of the world,". they will be able to cross there easily because the euphrates river will dry up, and making mobilization easy. after they mobilize in the valley of megiddo, they will charge to jerusalem, just like the romans did 2000 years ago. this will be the last time humanity will try to solve things with military might. This is where "no one knows the day or the hour" and "come like a thief in the night" applies, because at which point of the battle Jesus will choose to intervene is up to God only. This many things lining up is insanity. Lord have mercy upon us and save us like you did for the faithul in Pella.

I just found out that trump tweeted this literally one hour before i wrote this. Just look at what he wrote, saying praise allah out of nowhere. Tuesday, he says? I would believe you if you said to me that satan himself typed it. I don't know what to say anymore. Let's sit and watch what happens. I did not trick anybody, nor did anything to favor myself, I just humbly ask everyone here to consider repenting and sober up from the wine of babylon for a moment for the sake of Jesus. This call for repentance isn't even related to these crazy walls of texts, in general I've always loved hearing stories of zaryans repenting and improving themselves because it is the will of God. I love you zaryans, and Jesus loves you more. God bless.

Please do not think of the things I'll write down below as mockery or scorn, I do not intend for it to be understood that way. But again, it might be hard to understand. Understanding these things will require either a sharp mind, or years of connecting the dots, or the help of God, none of which is actually "your effort", as if God didn't allow you to have these, you wouldn't have them. The reason these sound familiar to you is because many people have noticed the patterns in the past. Try to understand what is said here at the best of your abilities.
there is ONE verse that is always used by end-time-pattern-noticer deniers "nobody knows the day or the hour" but this verse can be interpreted many ways, and only one of those interpretations is "nobody can know the end of the world and you shouldn't trust anyone that says they noticed it". you are hinging on this one verse and only to that specific interpretation because it is comforting, and I do not blame you as it is human nature to pick the comforting interpretation. But Jesus always spoke in parables, what makes you think that one wasn't a parable as well?
But there are over 500 verses about the signs of the end times. It never says, "it is forbidden to use these verses to try recognizing the end times", instead it encourages it. In Revelation it literally says "let the reader understand"; hinting that those actually living in the end times will understand them. And the EXACT moment Jesus arrives in the clouds to cast judgment is not the same thing as the 7 years of tribulation before it. Even if you want to go with that "nobody knows the day or the hour" it can be said that nobody can pinpoint the EXACT moment Jesus comes back to FIX the events of the tribulation, but you better be sure that people can pinpoint the events of 7 years of tribulation unfolding because even if you say one is vague, two is vague, five is vague, but when THIS many details line up, it's like a 99-factor authentication to be sure.
One of the interpretations of that verse is amazing and fits Jesus's style of parable use. "nobody knows the day or the hour" was a jewish idiom for the feast of trumpets (yom teruah), that feast has that idiom because of a specific reason: all the other festivals have clear start dates but yom teruah doesn't have one, they celebrate it for 2 days because they can't decide the exact time it should "technically" start. that feast is supposed to start on a new moon, but since the new moon has to be "confirmed" by two people before the month could officially begin, no one knew exactly when the festival would start. It could be one day or the next. so yom teruah became known by the technical nickname: "the day and hour that no one knows.". But listen, if they wanted to "confirm" the exact date they technically could, that's why it's called the feast of trumpets in the first place. To confirm the exact start of the festival, one person has to go up one mountain, and a second person has to go up another mountain across it. When both of them saw the first light of the New moon appear at the same time, they blew their horns so that the people could hear and know that the feast officially began. But why speak in parables in the first place, right?
My mind seems to be working differently lately. I have started to think of things I've never thought before. I never questioned why Jesus spoke with parables, I thought the purpose was solely connecting to the common people of that time, but now I'm starting to understand. Jesus is God. And God "speaks in parables" in your life all the time, you sometimes notice it and sometimes you don't. The reason He communicates that way is so clever, it is to not interfere with your free will because then you'll have plausible deniability. In every case, the correct choice is always the one that brings you closer to God, and the choice that matches with God's will, to know God's will you have to know scripture, that is why Jesus said man should not live on bread alone but he shall live by every word that comes out of the mouth of God. You've heard stuff like this happen to people. You probably experienced it yourself many times. For example you just got your paycheck and you feel that you should probably give some to the poor and the exact moment that thought crossed your mind a random beggar passes by you and looks into your eyes as if he knows what you just thought. It's God talking to you in parables. Or when you see something in such a specific time and place that it doesn't make sense how that coincidence happened. Or an even clearer example, when Jesus said to Peter "you will deny me three times before the rooster crows", Peter probably at that moment thought Jesus was exaggerating, or that He was challenging him, or calling him a liar, or that He meant something else, but for this once he wasn't speaking in parables, Peter literally denied being an apostle of Jesus three seperate times without realizing, and only realized what had happened when the sound of that rooster entered his ear right after the third time he denied. This in itself was a parable, sometimes what you thought was a vague sign was actually a direct and clear telling of what is going to happen. This is one of the most clever ways Jesus proves that He is God. He literally operated the same way God operates in our daily lives all the time. God speaks in parables in our lives all the time, so when he took on flesh to show us Himself, He spoke in parables the same way. When the apostles asked Jesus why he speaks in parables He said to them, "to reveal the secrets of the kingdom of heaven to them". Do you understand what He was saying? The ones that are close to God's heart just recognize the parables of God pretty accurately when they appear, and they can guess the correct answer pretty accurately too because they have learned God's heart through faith, prayer, humility and scripture. The secrets of the kingdom of Heaven are how to recognize the parables when they appear and how to answer them correctly. And Jesus gave us about around 40-50 of these parables, not even that hard to memorize and understand them. We lost the ability to talk directly with God when we sinned, but he never gave up talking to us with parables. When we go to heaven, the people that are close to God's heart will recognize Him easily, because they've been talking with Him through the filter of the parables their whole life. They will recognize the good old parable-teller. But finally He will be able to speak to you directly without the parables. But in all seriousness though, that "horn" that "flies across the world" from the west to "break the horns" of Persia "who has been attacking its north,west and south" in Daniel 8 is so clear to identify as what is happening with Iran at the moment. Just think on it for a while, read Daniel 8 once and you'll see. I think it is time for us to sit down and read the book of Daniel as a whole to get the full picture. I wonder what else is in there we're missing.

>>128894
You seem way too much invested into the idea that events described in the Bible have any connection to the latest #1488 SNCA chimp out in the middle east

I read daniel 8 and its apparently about greece fighting with persia, you could say its a prediction of the greco-sasanian wars but greece

according to the prophecy doe, the victorious nation would split into four great kingdoms, but the world hasn't ended and the byzantine empire didnt split up for a long time.

>>128952
Read Daniel 8 carefully, did you skip the part where Jesus (Son of Man) orders the angel Gabriel to explain to Daniel the meaning, and Gabriel says "this vision is about the end of time". So no one can say daniel 8 isn't specifically about end times. Look, history itself is a grand parable because God is the one who wrote it. previous events in the past are mirrors or "miniature version"s of events that happen in the future. This has happened countless times. For example, back in Genesis when God tells abraham "will you sacrifice your only begotten son for me?" abraham doesn't question God, puts the wooden planks required to build the sacrifical altar on the shoulders of his son Isaac, and they walk up the hill. Isaac asks his father, "father, you have the knife, I have the wooden planks, but where is the lamb we're going to sacrifice?" and abraham tells him, "God will provide the lamb." This is clearly a mirror to Jesus when he carried the wooden sacrifical altar on his shoulders up the hill of Golgotha, and so God did indeed provide the lamb. This was a biblical example, but the same "mirrors" happen in history aswell. For example Daniel 8 was first mirrored with Alexander when he crushed Persia, this happened just as daniel said but the attack wasn't "without touching the ground" nor did the world end after Alexander did this, because this was only a mirror of the real thing that will happen in the future. Another example is the "abomination that causes desolation" this means "a disgusting thing that doesn't belong there". This was fulfilled two times, first when greeks invaded Judea they put pagan idols and statue of zeus inside the temple, this was the "disgusting thing that doesn't belong there" of that time. the second time this was fulfilled was when roman soldiers put roman standard (the poles used by the roman army that they believed gave them pagan gods power) in the temple. Now the third and the "true" abomination that causes desolation will be the animal sacrifice altar on the new jewish temple, why? because it is a disgusting thing that doesn't belong there, Jesus was the final sacrifice, Blood of Christ was the final and real passover lamb. rebuilding the temple and saying "the blood of this sheep will clean us from our sins, Jesus's blood was invalid" is the real abomination, it's like the biggest insult you can do to God, and it will indeed cause desolation. Another mirror is how roman soldiers came to destroy the temple, this time a huge 200-million army from the east will march to jerusalem to destroy it, the final military battle in history the armageddon, named armageddon because the army will mobilize in the valley of Megiddo that will be easily accesible because the euphrates river dried up, and they will march to jerusalem like the romans did. they will have to do a land invasion because the world will be already nuked at that point. again, the bible never says "it is forbidden to use these verses to recognize the events leading up to the end", rather it encourages you to do it, in matthew and revelation it says "let the reader understand", winking at us reading it 2000 years later. Hosea 6:2 "After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us, that we may live in his presence." the "two days" (two-1000 years) is almost up, let's look forward to the restoration (millenial reign) and the joy of living in His presence. you have to wake up from the babylon mindset to not get scared when these happen. instead of the counterfeit "solution" they are going to enforce, the real "solution" is recognizing that the entire history of the universe was a love-letter written for you, written like poetry with parables, and the Writer Himself stepped into the story He wrote Himself, to tell you that He loves you, and to show you what the "perfect life" on this was supposed to be like, but no one can live the perfect life in this broken world because they will kill you in this sinful world. His life is like an instruction manual, you humble yourself to the point where you are "crucified" then you can see this world for what it really is, and understand the intentions of the Author of life. This is what Paul meant when he said "i am crucified with Christ, it is no longer me who lives but Christ who lives in me."

Trump just said this about Iran on live 30 minutes ago: "The entire country can be taken out in one night, and that night might be tomorrow night,"
I'm just theorizing. If the jews really picked the night of April 7 as the iran-destroying day, I can see why they would pick that date. israeli jews celebrate passover for 7 days. On April 7 it is the part of passover where they celebrate Moses parting the red sea, and the destruction of pharaoh's soldiers. The symbolism the synagogue of satan devised here is that they are replicating this event by "parting the sea" (forcing open the strait of hormuz) and "destroying the pharaoh's military" (destroying Iran's military). In case this actually happens, just remember that this is not about petrol, petrol is the red herring, it's about getting iran out of the way before they can start building the temple in jerusalem. Whatever happens, the final word will be God's

I'm pretty sure satan is trying to tempt me because I prayed to God a while back to give me a challenge so I could do something meaningful or something against satan and now satan is tempting me with lust and I am ashamed to say that I am tempted but I will try again to defeat him. Whenever something bad goes into your mind, 9 times out of 10 it is satan whispering into your ear to do something. When you think, "oh no a little won't hurt" that is satan worming about in your brain.

not a single writer of the bible ever met rabbi yeshua ben yosef btw
my favorite teaching from rabbi yeshua is john 4:22 "salvation is from the jews"

(((paul))) believed the end times were coming within his lifetime, urging people to live as if it were imminent, encouraging celibacy and total devotion to yahweh, the god of israel.
TWO MORE WEEKS UNTIL RABBI YESHUA COMES BACK AND KILLS ALL OF MANKIND IN THE NAME OF SERVING THE EVIL SEMITIC YAHWEH, THE LORD GOD OF THE JEWS.

>>128996
These are the same exact thoughts I struggled with back when I was an atheist. "jesus was just a rabbi" or "paul didnt even meet jesus". I have a drop of thought in my heart that you might be a muslim. forgive me if i guessed wrong.
If you still struggle to believe who Jesus is and what He did, I want you to ask these questions to yourself:
1) Prophet Daniel saw "One like the Son of Man" in the heavens, who had the authority to give direct orders to Angel Gabriel. Who could this Man with such authority be?
2) Why did God give Abraham such a specific instruction as "Would you sacrifice your only begotten son for my sake?" And when Abraham agreed to do this and loaded the wooden planks on the shoulders of his son Isaac and went up the hill to prove himself, why did God honor Abraham so much for this specific action that He promised to him that all the prophets will descend from Abraham?
3) Why did God, since the beginning of the book (Genesis), instruct humans to shed animal blood for the remission of sins? Why did He institute the practice of shedding innocent blood in the first place? Did God enjoy seeing poor animals suffer, or was He pointing to another "Sacrifice" this whole time?
Prophets in the old testament never saw Jesus either, but their own words pointed to Him the whole time. There are super-specific verses in the Tanakh that testify to who Jesus is, and prophesy His coming, His life, His passion and His return. you say all of this happened "coincidentally". How? Jews had no reason to glorify Jesus whom they hated, but their own book proves Him. As I said, God is a parable-teller, He is the author of this grand story we know as the universe, and it's full of His parables. He worked in such a way that even His enemies are forced to testify His truth.
Here are some of the most clear prophecies about Jesus Christ in the Tanakh(Old Testament):
1) Isaiah 53 talks about a certain someone who was trying to tell the Truth, yet the people of His day didn't listen to Him, instead they despised him and rejected Him and mocked Him. Yet, this Man still "takes up the pain and suffering (which we deserved) upon Himself. Then, this man gets "pierced" for our transgressions, gets crushed for our sake. The punishment that brings peace to us humans was afflicted to Him, and "by His wounds we are healed". Now, this was not written by Christians. These were said by the prophet Isaiah, centuries before Jesus. How did he guess these details so accurately?
2) Psalm 22 describes word for word what happened to Jesus on the cross. Yet, it is written by David thousands of years before Jesus. It reads like it's a poem that Jesus wrote for Himself. And also, Jesus quoted the beginning verse of this psalm while He was on the cross. When Jesus was on the cross, the others around Him mocked him saying, "If you are the son of God as you say, then get down from that cross, you can't even save yourself." . Psalm 22 says (direct quote): "All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads. “He trusts in the Lord,” they say, “let the Lord rescue him. Let him deliver him, since he delights in him.” When Jesus was on the cross, the pharisees and the roman soldiers were around him in a circle. His hands and His feet were nailed to the cross, he was very thirsty yet refused to drink the wine they offered, and they even pierced Him with a spear, which caused water to sprout out of His body. Now direct quote from Psalm 22: "I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted within me. My mouth is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death. Dogs surround me, a pack of villains encircles me; they pierce my hands and my feet. All my bones are on display; people stare and gloat over me." Now here is an amazing detail, when the Roman soldiers brought Jesus the cross, they stripped Him naked, and then tore the clothes to pieces to share the cloth material within themselves. But his outer garment was a seamless one that couldn't be torn to pieces like that, so they instead did gambling to decide who gets that one. Now hear what it says in the continuation of Psalm 22: "They divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment.". Now I don't know how you can say this many details lining up in one verse written like a lamenting poem is a coincidence. There are many, many prophecies about Jesus like this one in the Old Testament. Here's more:
3) Zechariah 12:10, God is speaking about Himself, saying that the house of david will somehow "pierce" him and then they will "mourn like one mourns for a firstborn son." Here is the direct quote: "They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. "
4) Isaiah 6:9 says that a "child" is born to us, but somehow this baby has the attributes of God, and His rule will last forever unlike any earthly king. Direct quote: "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever."
There are more. So you can't really say that the apostles exalted Jesus so much that they made Him their god, Jesus was really God, just as the previous prophets testified without realizing. If you want to learn more prophecies fulfilled by Jesus you will find many more. His entrance to Jerusalem on the top of a small donkey instead of a big war horse has a meaning. He says, in my first coming I am humbling myself, I'm on this small donkey. But on my return, I will come with my Power, that is when I'll arrive on a horse. Even this detail is in the Tanakh the book of jews, on Zechariah 9:9
"See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
" . There are even more of these prophecies fulfilled by Jesus, about 500 of them.

>>128996
Now, on the topic of Paul. Paul had a role in God's plan, and as you know, God is the great parable-teller, the Author of this grand story we know as human history aswell. The specific conditions of the world Paul found himself in was no coincidence. First Jesus came and showed everyone the wholeness of The Truth, and after that, Paul was the believer He chose to write, to teach other believers how to behave and live in this temporary broken world as the knowers of truth. Because as you know, when you choose to believe in Jesus you don't magically get powers and the ability to defeat all temptation in an instant, no, but rather it happens within you, you repent and humble yourself at first. At first you don't feel much is happening, but over time you really "DIE" to your "old self", you let go of all the shame,pride,anger,disdain,mockery that grips on your life, you "figuratively crucify" yourself by doing this. Doing it isn't easy, but once you achieve this you will see. Ask yourself, "what controls my actions - my fear, my shame, my anger? if that is the case, you haven't crucified yourself yet. When you achieve it, it really feels like as Paul says in Galatians: "it is no longer me that lives, but Christ who lives in me.". Why? Because it is no longer fear or shame that decides your actions, but the Love for God the Father that decides your actions. You understand God's heart only if you first empty yourself of all your pride and humble yourself just like Christ did. you can not achieve this only with "elite knowledge", you must humble yourself. Paul was the cleanest example of this. Paul was a person who achieved this. Once he achieved it, he moved not with his own will, but of God's. Now you might as why Paul doe. Listen, the main men of Jesus (the apostles) were not scripture professionals, lest people say "his apostles were rabbis and they made it up", no, His followers were lowly men like fishermen, laborers, a young boy, and a tax collector. Paul on the other hand was a pharisee of pharisees, he was a violent, classic stubborn jew that was taught the entirety of Scripture from his childhood, he knew the scripture like the back of his hand, and he was persecuting christians. He was on the road, on his way to Damascus to kill christians there, when Jesus appeared to him and converted paul Himself. This was to show us that even the most stubborn most calloused hearted shalom rabbi shekelstein has the ability to come to Christ if you just humble yourself. You mostly understand Paul's writings clearly only if you achieve what paul did, swallowing your pride and "crucifying your old self". So in this way Paul's writings serve as a sort of litmus test, if your heart moves the same way Paul's did, if you read the things paul did and day "yes, i would have done the same as a bearer of the truth of Christ.", then you can know that you have truly achieved it and aren't lying to yourself.

In case I forgot to mention this detail: the idea of "7 year tribulation, of which the first 3.5 years is moderate, the rest 3.5 years is severe" is not an idea I came up with myself at all. It says that in daniel, and it says it in revelation. daniel and revelation are books that focus on the end of the world and it's not an "interpretation", the books clearly state "this is about the end times.". We just notice how the patterns match up exactly as they were written, and this is to the glory of God as it testifies that nothing happens outside of His knowledge. Time itself is testifying to the truth of God. There are many reasons to think that this 7 year tribulation period is 2026-2033 as you can see. If you argue that "but Jesus said no one can know the hour", I've explained what that verse implies up there a few posts ago, you can read it. If you fear, you will be deceived. Instead do not be fearful like the rest, you have heard what is the truth, you know God scripted it, and we know for sure Jesus wins in the end. be ready and be watchful, and keep your "oil" filled up, me or anyone else can not give our "oil" to you. Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord, His rule shall have no end. Hallelujah

Forgot to mention, the reason Paul preached as if Jesus was coming back tomorrow was for a reason. Firstly, there is the spiritual reason, you do not know when your earthly body will perish, so indeed you keep watch and live as if every day is your last day. Secondly, as I've said before, the second generation after Jesus (33AD-73AD) was indeed like a "miniature version" / "mirror" of the actual events that will happen in the end. This is one of the ways God's parables work, "as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end.". It was like a miniature version because think about it, "abomination of desolation" was set up inside the temple just like prophet daniel said (in that case it was pagan roman poles, called standards, poles which romans believed their pagan gods granted them power), Jerusalem was trampled just as Jesus said, the temple was destroyed with no stone on top of eachother just like Jesus said, Ceasar Nero (whose name gematria is 666) was the antichrist of that time, enforcing his own babylon system where if you comply you are rewarded but if you don't comply you are punished, he was martyring christians left to right, feeding them to lions. Of course in this atmosphere paul thought "could this be it?" but no, those events in the second generation after Jesus was just a miniature version and miniature version and mirror to what will happen during the 49th generation after Jesus (which is now, started 1993, ends in 2033). It is no coincidence that Paul lived and witnessed the events in the second generation, so he can write instructions for us living in the real final generation. 50th generation is the grand jubilee where the land will be given back go its original owners, all debts is cleared and the slaves are set free, just as God instituted in Leviticus. in the 2026-2033 timeline, exactly on the halfway mark of the 7 year tribulation just as scripture said, in 2029, the asteroid Apophis, the biggest asteroid that passed this close to earth in the history of mankind is coming. This is clearly the marker of the second 3.5 years of Great tribulation. So this means that the west will destroy Iran's military power just as prophet Daniel said, and in these days we understand why, they will say they did this for "petrol" when in reality they did it so that they can get iran out of the way first, the only country that could dare to oppose them destroying masjid-al-aqsa in jerusalem, and then they will start building the temple. it will take around 3 years to build it, and just as they sacrifice the first animal to try replacing the blood of Christ with their abomination, ASTEROID APOPHIS WILL COME. LISTEN TO THIS. THE LAMB SACRIFICE OF THE JEWS ACCORDING TO TANAKH IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE 14TH OF NISAN (APRIL IN JEW CALENDAR) DURING PASSOVER. ASTEROID APOPHIS IS ARRIVING EXACTLY ON THE 13TH OF APRIL 2029. JUST ONE DAY BEFORE THE ABOMINATION RITUAL OF THE ANIMAL BLOOD OVER CHRIST'S BLOOD IS MADE. HOW CAN YOU THINK THAT THIS IS A COINCIDENCE? HOW MANY MORE MATCHES WILL IT TAKE TO CONVINCE YOU?
