fullness of the gentiles “ i do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you...

Daniel 231 “You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance...

32 The head of the statue was made of pure goldits chest and arms of silverits belly and thighs of bronzeits legs of ironits FEET partly of iron and partly of baked clay.

Understanding God’s Script

Daniel 234 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them.

35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace.

But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth.

God’s Timetable

Fullness of the Gentiles“I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved.” (Romans 11:25–26)

What needs to happen to get here?

Global economy based on membership in “the system”

Revelation 13:11–1811 Then I saw another beast…12 He exercised all the authority of the first beast… and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast. 16 He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17 so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. 18 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666.

Where are transactions headed?• Big change in just 15-20 years.

• My parents didn't use visa… they used cash.

• When I graduated from college, I was using 100% Visa (paperless society).

• Now, we’re starting to not need visa.

What do we see?

We can use apps like Passbook:

Soon all phones will have NFC:

(iPhone 5s in June)

Biggest challenge? Phones can be stolen.

So here’s a good tech solution.

British scientist Kevin Warwick was first person to receive RFID implant May 24, 1998. Could control doors, lights, heaters, and other computer-controlled devices based on his proximity.

Cannot be saved if receive the mark?Revelation 14:9–119 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, 10 he, too, will drink of the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. He will be tormented… There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name.”

Why!? Chips can be removed, right?

Maybe Something Deeper Here

Revelation 13:18: "This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666."

ἀριθμὸς γὰρ ἀνθρώπου ἐστίν

Maybe something like human / web “system” integration?

100 years ago computers didn’t existAnd Just 50 years ago they filled rooms:

They began to shrink

And… Shrink!

Until now…

Meet Google Glass

So what’s next?

Human / machine integration

We can READ from the brain

And there’s a race to WRITE to the brain

666 = Total integration into “the system”?Don't know, but technology is getting there fast!

Imagine web connected Google Glass inside your brain!

Has to be a nation of Israel (& temple)Destroyed 70 AD

Came “back to life” May 14, 1948.

Has to be a One World GovernmentFor this to happen, each nation must be dissolved.

For USA, this means rights must be removed.

Things like…

Right to privacy

Right to bear arms

Right to a fair trial

Right against unlawful search and seizure

What got us to this point?

Must be breaking down of U.S. economy

Must be removal of borders

Like European Union Nov. 1, 1993

Funding the global government

Next step is to introduce a global carbon tax.

#1 Task: To Create a New World Order

The point: Don’t freak out!

God is orchestrating EVERYTHING

Daniel 2:4444 “In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.”

History is playing out like a movie script

Romans 11:25“Until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in”

Next up…

For true ChristiansRevelation 3:10“Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.”

Revelation 21:1–5 (NIV84) 21 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” 5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

New body, heaven and earth!
