UPDATES AND SCENARIOS: ON THE
SIGNS OF THE TIMES
A Negros Island House Of Prayer

Bacolod City
WHAT IS MEANT BY “SIGNS OF THE TIMES”?
• Luke 16:2b to 3When it is evening, you say, “It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.” And in the morning, “It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.” You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.• Luke 12:54-56When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, «A shower is coming»; and so it happens. And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, «There will be scorching heat»; and it happens. You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky; but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? (RSV) …discern this time (KJV)
WHAT EVENT/S DO THEY REFER TO?
• Matthew 24: 1-4Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”
THE SECOND COMING AND THE “END OF THE AGE”
So the “signs of the times” REFER TO:1. THE SIGNS SIGNALLING THE SECOND
COMING OF JESUS, 2. which is associated with the END OF THE
AGE.Matthew 24:3 “…. and what shall be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the world (age)?“
“END OF THE WORLD” OR “END OF THE AGE”?
Matthew 13:39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world (age); and the reapers are the angels.
v. 49 So shall it be at the end of the world (age): the angels shall come forth, and sever (separate) the wicked from among the just.
WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE IS THIS?
• DOOM or HOPE?• The answer of the Scriptures is BOTH:
1. DOOM for those who refuse to recognize and trust the Lord Jesus Christ
2. HOPE AND ASSURANCE for those who put their trust in the Lord
BUT DOES IT MEAN THAT THE WORLD WILL DISAPPEAR,
OR CEASE TO EXIST? ANNIHILATED?
• It does NOT MEAN annihilation, or that there will be no more earth
• “One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abides for ever.” -- Ecclesiastes 1:4
THEN WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
REVELATIONS 21:
1 ”Then I saw “A NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH,”[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. …
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell 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’[b] 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.”
“THE END” therefore MEANS:
• This world as we know it, and these times as we know them, will have an END in the sense that:
- God will someday JUDGE all people- Christ will ESTABLISH HIS PHYSICAL REIGN on
EARTH (meaning He will come back!)- The Lord will RENEW THE HEAVENS AND THE
EARTH, there will be a NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH
SO WHEN THE BIBLE says “SIGNS OF THE TIMES”, it refers to
• THE TIMES of TRANSITION FROM THE OLD WORLD TO THE NEW WORLD
• This transition WILL INVOLVE MANY EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS, called SIGNS, THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN FORETOLD BY THE BIBLE
• To “READ THE TIMES” or “INTERPRET THE TIMES” SIMPLY MEANS TO OBSERVE EVENTS IN THE WORLD AND CHECK THEM OUT IN THE BIBLE IN REFERENCE TO THE COMING AGAIN OF JESUS AND THE “END OF THE AGE” OR THE “END OF THE WORLD”
HOW CAN WE KNOW?REV. 1:19 “Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and WHAT WILL TAKE PLACE LATER.”
AMOS 3:7 “Surely, the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the PROPHETS.”
ISAIAH 46:9-109 Remember the former things of old:for I am God, and there is none else;I am God, and there is none like me,10 declaring the end from the beginning,and from ancient times the things that are not yet done,saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
WHAT SHOULD BE OUR POSTURE?
MATTHEW 24:42, 44“Therefore, KEEP WATCH, because you do not know what day your Lord will come; …So you also MUST BE READY, because the Son of man will come AT AN HOUR when you do not expect Him.”
CAN WE KNOW WHEN IT IS NEAR?MATTHEW 24:33
“Even so, WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS (THE SIGNS HE WAS TALKING ABOUT IN MATTHEW 24),
YOU KNOW that IT IS NEAR, RIGHT AT THE DOOR.”
DO WE DATE SET?• NO!!!Matthew 24:36 (Mark 13:32) “But of that day and
hour no man knows, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
BUT REMEMBER HE ALSO SAID:MATTHEW 24:33
“Even so, WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS (THE SIGNS HE WAS TALKING ABOUT IN MATTHEW 24), YOU KNOW that IT IS NEAR, RIGHT AT THE DOOR.”
THEREFORE, WE MUST
MATTHEW 24:42, 44“Therefore, KEEP WATCH, because you do not what day your Lord will come; …So you also MUST BE READY, because the Son of man will come AT AN HOUR when you do not expect Him.”SO WE ARE NOT DATE-SETTING, WE ARE SIGNS
WATCHING, AND BEING READY.
DO I HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS?1 Thessalonians 5:3 “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then
sudden destruction will come upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
IT IS BETTER TO BE READY AND PREPARED, THAN TO IGNORE ALL THESE SIGNS AND BE CAUGHT UNPREPARED.
So we will look out for signs of the last days:
NOW WHAT IS THE “LAST DAYS”?
• 2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
• Hebrews 1:2 (God) has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds.
So technically, the term “last days” refer to the last 2,000 years from the time of Christ up to the present time.
BUT THERE IS ALSO THE “LAST HOUR”
• I JOHN 2:18 (RSV)“Children, it is the last hour; and as you have
heard that (the) Antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.”
THE “LAST DAYS” HAS A “LAST HOUR”.The “last hour” is when the ANTI-CHRIST
appears. THIS IS A SIGN WE NEED TO WATCH.
THERE IS ALSO THE “END TIMES”
• Daniel 12:4 ...'But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end.‘
• This is where we got the term “end times” or time of the end
WHAT ARE THE SIGNSWE NEED TO WATCH?
The cluster or grouping of signs:• 1. THE NATURAL SIGNS – signs in the natural.
physical world (earth, sun, moon, stars, seas)• 2. POLITICAL SIGNS – signs in the relations of
nations• 3. SPIRITUAL and MORAL SIGNS• 4. the SUPER SIGN – ISRAEL• 5. The COMING OF THE ANTI-CHRIST AND THE
SYSTEM OF THE 666
THE NATURAL SIGNS:
SOME OF WHAT JESUS SAID:• “There shall be famines and EARTHQUAKES in
divers (different) places” (Matthew 24:7b)• “There shall be perplexity and anguish among
nations because of THE ROARING AND TOSSING OF THE SEA” (Luke 21:25b)
• “There shall be SIGNS IN THE SUN, MOON, AND STARS…” (Luke 21:25a)
INCREASE IN EARTHQUAKES?
• Trends since 1986• For example, between 1986 and 1996 (incl), a period of 11
years, there were "just" 15 earthquakes listed by USGS of magnitude 7.0 or greater. This is not markedly different (albeit a slight decrease) from previous (similar periods) of 20th century, where an average of about 18 might be expected.
• But between 1997 and 2007 (incl), a period of only 11 years, there were 99 EARTHQUAKES with magnitude 7.0 or greater : This is more than a six-fold increase on the previous similar period - and is a stark increase on any earlier decades in 20th century too.
INCREASED OCCURRENCE OR INCREASED MONITORING?
DATES FROM & TO PERIOD vis-avis NUMBER OF EARTHQUAKES (Mag. > 6.99)

EARTHQUAKE SWARMS
• The Science of California’s Seismic Pests, or Earthquake “Swarms”
• Andrew Alden, KQED Science Contributor | October 10, 2013 | 3 Comments
• Earlier this week, a cluster of dozens of little earthquakes occurred under the Salton Sea in southernmost California over the course of a couple of days. Most were too tiny to feel, and the largest—of magnitude 2.3—wasn’t big enough to be remarked upon. Specialists call this kind of thing an earthquake swarm, and while it seems like swarms ought to be telling us something, nobody yet has figured out what.
EARTHQUAKE SWARM
• Earthquake Swarm Continues in Central OklahomaReleased: 10/22/2013 1:07:59 PM
• Contact Information:U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological SurveyOffice of Communications and Publishing12201 Sunrise Valley Dr, MS 119Reston, VA 20192
• Studies show one to three magnitude 3.0 earthquakes or larger occurred yearly from 1975 to 2008, while the average grew to around 40 earthquakes per year from 2009 to mid-2013.
Earthquake swarms getting more frequent:• Near Mexicali, along the Cerro Prieto Fault, over 500 quakes
and aftershocks occurred during a two-week period in February 2008.[5]
• Between February 2011 and December 2011 more than 500 earthquakes were recorded during the 2011 Christchurch earthquakes, with 31 of them greater than magnitude 5.
• In 2013, the Santa Cruz Islands had been experiencing a large earthquake swarm with many magnitude 5 and 6 earthquake occurring since January and continuing into February. This later turned out to be a series of foreshocks that led up to the 8.0 2013 Solomon Islands earthquake on February 6.
Earthquake swarms increase in Feb 2013 as 'Earth Wobble' picks up the pace
A new phenomenon:EARTHQUAKE STORM
• From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia• An earthquake storm is a RECENTLY PROPOSED THEORY about
earthquakes, WHERE ONE TRIGGERS A SERIES OF OTHER LARGE EARTHQUAKES—ALONG THE SAME PLATE BOUNDARY—AS THE STRESS TRANSFERS ALONG THE FAULT SYSTEM. This is similar to the idea of aftershocks, with the exception that they take place years apart. THESE SERIES OF EARTHQUAKES CAN DEVASTATE ENTIRE COUNTRIES OR GEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS. Possible events may have occurred during the end of the Bronze Age, and the latter part of the Roman Empire. It has been suggested that this is what may be occurring in modern-day Turkey.[1]
• The term was coined by Stanford Professor of Geophysics Amos Nur in 2000.[2]

BOHOL EARTHQUAKE 2013
Wall of rock rises out of the ground in the Philippines: new fault triggered large quake
Posted on October 24, 2013
“NEW FAULT”
• Residents stand next to a long earthen wall which formed following the Oct. 15 earthquake in Barangay Anonang in Inabanga, Bohol. Phivolcs scientists said the wall is the face of a PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN FAULT LINE WHICH CAUSED THE MAGNITUDE 7.2 QUAKE
• October 24, 2013 – PHILIPPINES – As the magnitude 7.2 earthquake ended on Oct. 15, residents of Sitio Kumayot in Barangay Anonang heard an explosive sound like a thunderclap. Villagers watched in horrified disbelief as the ground cracked open and, with smoke and the stench of sulphur spreading, one side started to rise.
THE VULNERABILITY OF THEPHILIPPINES
The Philippines belong to the PACIFIC RING OF FIRE; 90% OF THE WORLD’S LARGEST EARTHQUAKES AND 81% OF THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE HAPPEN IN THIS AREA
There is DEFINITE, SOLID SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE THAT CALAMITIES AND DISASTERS HAVE AND ARE DRAMATICALLY
RISING IN INTENSITY AND FREQUENCY:
WHAT THE SCIENCE COMMUNITY SAYS:
• 8.0 MAGNITUDE EARTHQUAKE TO HIT PHILIPPINES IN 2014: MOLUCCA SEA EPICENTER
According to the International Earthquake and Volcano Prediction Center (IEVPC), a non-profit science research organization located in Florida, a possible 8.0 magnitude earthquake may hit the Philippines in 2014. The organization issued in early 2013 a Catastrophic Geophysical Event (CGE) Warning Notice (CWN) for the Molucca Sea. This CWN specified a predicted major earthquake M8.0+ and associated tsunami that may strike the Philippines and northern Indonesia BETWEEN NOW AND DECEMBER 2014.
LET’S PRAY FOR METRO MANILA
• PHIVOLCS: WEST VALLEY FAULT LINE ‘RIPE FOR MOVEMENT’
• MANILA, Philippines - The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology on Wednesday said the Marikina West Valley fault line, one of the active faults in the country, is ripe for movement because it has not moved for 200 years.
• PHIVOLCS SAID THE POSSIBILITY OF A MAGNITUDE 7.2 EARTHQUAKE IS NOT FAR-FETCHED.
• A Metro Manila Earthquake Impact Reduction Study earlier revealed that 7 out of 17 cities in Metro Manila will suffer the most damage and casualties if a massive earthquake occurs at the West Valley fault.
• The 7 cities are Marikina, Quezon, Pasig, Makati, Pateros, Taguig and Muntinlupa. - With a report from Ryan Chua, ABS-CBN News
A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION:WHY WOULD GOD ALLOW DISASTERS
AND CALAMITIES? WHY NOT JUST STOP THEM ALTOGETHER?
• Isaiah 26:9 With my soul I have desired You in the night, Yes,
by my spirit within me I will seek You early; For when Your judgments come upon the earth, The people of the world learn righteousness.
SUN AND EARTH CORRELATION?
• In Luke 21:25, Jesus said, “THERE WILL BE SIGNS IN THE SUN, MOON AND STARS…”
• While in Matthew 7:7 He said “there will be earthquakes in diverse (different) places…”
• A RECENT PHENOMENON, called by NASA as calling for a “new science”, is being studied:
SOLAR FLARES IN RELATION TO EARTHQUAKES
SOLAR FLARES!
WHAT IS A SOLAR FLARE?
• A solar flare is a sudden brightening observed over the Sun's surface or the solar limb, which is interpreted as a LARGE ENERGY RELEASE of up to 6 × 1025 joules ofenergy (about a sixth of the total energy output of the Sun each second or 160,000,000,000 MEGATONS OF TNT EQUIVALENT, over 25,000 times more energy than released from the impact of Comet Shoemaker–Levy 9 with Jupiter). They are mainly followed by a colossal coronal mass ejection also known as a CME.[1] The flare ejects clouds of electrons, ions, and atoms through the corona of the sun into space. These clouds typically reach Earth a day or two after the event.
• August 1st 2010. Solar flare – August 3rd 2010. A 6.4 earthquake hit Papua New
Guinea.
• February. 15th 2011. We had a Class X solar flare. The flare hit the earth on February 18th 2011. – On February 22nd 2011 the deadly 6.3-magnitude
Christchurch earthquake struck
• On March 9th 2011, a class X1.5 solar flare erupted; A Coronal Mass Ejection struck our magnetic field March 10th. Bright Aurora Borealis were visible in the northern United States. This was a result of an M3 flare that occurred late on March 7th, 2011 – On Friday, March 11th, 2011, a 9.0 magnitude
earthquake hit Japan, creating a tsunami.
FOR THOSE WHO KNOW THE LORD, this is not a cause for alarm:
Jesus said in LUKE 21:28 “When you see these things begin to take place, STAND UP AND LIFT UP YOUR HEADS BECAUSE YOUR REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR.”
ONE EFFECT OF INCREASED SOLAR ACTIVITY is weather extremes:
MELTING ICE CAP
• On 26 August 2012, the extent of Arctic water covered by sea ice fell below 4.17 million square kilometers (1.61 million square miles), the record minimum set in 2007. Arctic sea ice stood at 4.10 million square kilometers (1.58 million square miles), the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) and NASA reported on August 27.
• Arctic sea ice reached previous record lows in 2002, 2005, and 2007. (The 2007 record low was previously recorded as 4.13 million square kilometers, or 1.59 million square miles. Slightly different processing and quality-control procedures used by NASA Goddard Space Flight Center led to revised estimates of sea ice extent.) Over the past decade, sea ice extent in the Arctic has been well below the 1979–2000 average.
LA NADA PHENOMENON• The Washington Post: Report - More Frequent Droughts, Floods to Come • The Washington Post
more intense heat waves and heavy downpours … hurricanes and tornadoes. The new analysis also speaks to a broader trend: The world is facing a new reality of more extreme weather, and policymakers and business alike are beginning to adjust.
EXTREME WEATHER
Luke 21:25 “…and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; “ TSUNAMI and
STORM SURGES are part of strong SIGNS OF THE TIMES
Another thing to watch: POLE SHIFT
• … the magnetic reversal of the Earth's poles seems to be rapidly increasing and is affecting world weather patterns. The real question is how bad will things get before it all settles back down to a "new normal?"
• Since 2005, the North Pole has shifted by 1.2 metres in an easterly direction. By using Nasa satellite data, researchers from Texas have discovered that 90 per of this shift has been caused by climate change, including the melting of the Greenland ice sheet, pictured, as well as the melting of mountain glaciers

FIRST TIME• Shift In Poles Means Magnetic North Now East Of Grid North For
First Time In 220 Years• Huffington Post UK | Posted: 20/01/2014 12:12
GMT | Updated: 25/01/2014 21:01 GMT• Magnetic north has moved from west of Grid North to the east for
the first time in 200 years, causing a massive reworking of the Ordnance Survey's maps.
• While it's usually thought to be an eternal 'constant', Earth's poles are constantly shifting. Magnetic north actually points in different directions in different places due to variances in magnetic force, and MAP MAKERS (OR RATHER, MAP USERS) HAVE TO CONSISTENTLY ADJUST THEIR WORK TO ACCOUNT FOR THE DIFFERENCE.
EFFECTS
• "We warned at the start of ZetaTalk, in 1995, that unpredictable weather extremes, switching about from drought to deluge, would occur and increase on a lineal basis up until the pole shift.
ARE TSUNAMIS INCREASING?• Title:
IS THE RATE OF GLOBAL TSUNAMI OCCURRENCE INCREASING?Authors:Geist, E. L.; Parsons, T.Affiliation:AA(USGS, Menlo Park, CA, USA egeist@usgs.gov), AB(USGS, Menlo Park, CA, USA tparsons@usgs.gov)Publication:American Geophysical Union, Fall Meeting 2010, abstract #S33B-2091Publication Date:12/2010Origin:AGUKeywords:[1986] INFORMATICS / Statistical methods: Inferential, [4564] OCEANOGRAPHY: PHYSICAL / Tsunamis and storm surges, [7223] SEISMOLOGY / Earthquake interaction, forecasting, and predictionBibliographic Code:2010AGUFM.S33B2091G
YES, ACCORDING TO THE DATA:• Abstract• Statistical analysis of the global tsunami catalog reveals several
transient periods of rate increases in tsunami occurrence. The tsunami catalog appears to be complete for tsunamis detected by tide-gauge stations with maximum amplitudes > 0.1 m, starting soon after the April 1, 1946 Aleutian tsunami when tsunami-reporting procedures became more systematic. The long-term rate of global tsunami occurrence is approximately 7.4 events/year over this period of the catalog. This rate fluctuates, however, with a PROMINENT RATE INCREASE IN THE MID-1990S FOR A PERIOD OF ABOUT 3 YEARS, WHEN AS MANY AS 18 TSUNAMIS OCCURRED IN A ONE-YEAR PERIOD. Another rate increase began in 2005 and is continuing to the present day at APPROXIMATELY 11 EVENTS/YEAR AVERAGED OVER THE 6-YEAR TIME PERIOD.
The 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami• Deadliest tsunami in history
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami
• Called a MEGATSUNAMI (33 meter or 108 foot wave, 230,210 recorded deaths 168,000 in Indonesia alone)
• Also called a TELETSUNAMI, because it travelled ACROSS AN ENTIRE OCEAN, hitting first Indonesia, then Thailand, Malaysia, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Somalia, Kenya, and Tanzania in Eastern Africa
STORM SURGE: YOLANDA FURY
WE SHIFT TO THE SIGN OF (the Beast) ANTI-CHRIST AND THE 666
REVELATIONS 13:16 “He (the beast) causes all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and slave, to RECEIVE A MARK on their right hand or on their foreheads,
17 and that NO ONE MAY BUY OR SELL EXCEPT ONE WHO HAS THE MARK OR THE NAME OF THE BEAST, OR THE NUMBER OF HIS NAME.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number IS SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SIX (666).”
WHAT IS THIS NUMBER AND HOW DO YOU”INSTALL” IT?
In the past, people thought that this is how it would be “installed”:
PLEASE TAKE NOTE:
REVELATIONS 13:16 He (the beast) causes all, both small and great,
rich and poor, free and slave, TO RECEIVE A MARK ON THEIR RIGHT HAND OR ON THEIR FOREHEADS.

CATHOLIC NEWS
• Mark of the Beast: man has microchip implanted into hand• By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)• 8/28/2013• Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)• RFID chip displays a rainbow pattern.• A man in Brooklyn has had a chip implanted in his hand as an
ultra-modern tattoo. The chip, which is implanted entirely inside his hand, displays an animated rainbow pattern.
RFID 'Powder' - The World's Smallest RFID
(Radio Frequency IDentification chips)Tag...
• The world's smallest and thinnest RFID tags were introduced yesterday by Hitachi. Tiny miracles of miniaturization, these RFID chips (Radio Frequency IDentification chips) measure just 0.05 x 0.05 millimeters.
The previous record-holder, the Hitachi mu-chip, is just 0.4 x 0.4 millimeters. Take a look at the size of the mu-chip RFID tag on a human fingertip. Now, compare that with the new RFID tags. The "powder type" tags are some sixty times smaller.
The new RFID chips have a 128-bit ROM for storing a unique 38 digit number, like their predecessor. Hitachi used semiconductor miniaturization technology and electron beams to write data on the chip substrates to achieve the new, smaller size.
Hitachi's mu-chips are already in production; they were used to prevent ticket forgery at last year's Aichi international technology exposition. RFID 'powder,' on the other hand, is so much smaller that it can easily be incorporated into thin paper, like that used in paper currency and gift certificates. Science fiction fans will have a field day with this new technology

SOME STATES PASSED LAW PROHIBITING IMPLANTATION
• Following Wisconsin and North Dakota,[28] California issued Senate Bill 362 in 2007, which prohibits employers and others from forcing anyone to have a RFID device implanted under their skin.[28]
• On April 5, 2010, the Georgia Senate passed Senate Bill 235 that prohibits forced microchip implants in humans and that would make it a misdemeanor for anyone to require them, including employers. The bill would allow voluntary microchip implants, as long as they are performed by a physician and regulated by the Georgia Composite Medical Board. If the General Assembly passes the new Senate version, Georgia would join California, North Dakota and Wisconsin in banning mandatory microchip implant.[citation needed]
• On February 10, 2010 Virginia's House of Delegates also passed a bill that forbids companies from forcing their employees to be implanted with tracking devices.[29]
• Washington State House Bill 1142-2009-10 orders a study using implanted radio frequency identification or other similar technology to electronically monitor sex offenders and other felons.[30]
ALREADY USED IN SOME OFFICES• MEXICO CITY, MEXICO - Security has reached the subcutaneous level for Mexico's
attorney general and at least 160 people in his office - they have been implanted with microchips that get them access to secure areas of their headquarters.
• Mexico's top federal prosecutors and investigators began receiving chip implants in their arms in November in order to get access to restricted areas inside the attorney general's headquarters, said Antonio Aceves, general director of Solusat, the company that distributes the microchips in Mexico.
• Attorney General Rafael Macedo de la Concha and 160 of his employees were implanted at a cost to taxpayers of $150 for each rice grain-sized chip. More are scheduled to get "tagged" in coming months, and key members of the Mexican military, the police and the office of President Vicente Fox might follow suit, Aceves said. Fox's office did not immediately return a call seeking comment. Aceves said his company eventually hopes to provide Mexican officials with implantable devices that can track their physical location at any given time, but that technology is still under development.
• The chips that have been implanted are manufactured by VeriChip Corp., a subsidiary of Applied Digital Solutions Inc. (ADSX) of Palm Beach, Fla. They lie dormant under the skin until read by an electromagnetic scanner, which uses a technology known as radio frequency identification, or RFID, that's now getting hot in the inventory and supply chain businesses. Erik Michielsen, director of RFID analysis at ABI Research Inc., said that in theory the chips could be as secure as existing RFID-based access control systems such as the contactless employee badges widely used in corporate and government facilities.
What’s wrong with the mark? REVELATIONS 14:9-12
THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTICHRIST
• 25 He shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and shall think to change the times and the (set) law; and they shall be given into his hand for a time, two times, and half a time.
EXAMPLE OF CHANGING SET LAWS:
• 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 ...'Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.'
THE SPIRIT OF THE ANTI-CHRIST IS SEEN IN OPEN DISPLAY OF SATANISM:
• Open Witchcraft And Satanism On Display At 2014 Grammys
• January 27, 2014. Katy Perry, who was surrounded by demons as she danced around an upside down broomstick before being encircled by fire during a performance of her song “Dark Horse”. Perry wore clothing bearing an illuminated Knights Templar cross.
The Philippines welcomed LADY GAGA, but Moslem Indonesia
bans her…• In one of her recent songs, JUDAS, Lady
Gaga blasphemes Jesus Christ horribly—praising Judas for betraying Christ, singing that she'll insincerely wash Jesus' feet with her hair just to bring Him down, singing that she is in love with Judas, and that “Judas is the demon I cling to.” Lady gaga sings, “In the most Biblical sense, I am beyond repentance.” She sings, “Ohohohoh... I’m in love with Judas.”
• YET HER CONCERT AT THE SM MALL OF ASIA WAS A SELL-OUT FOR TWO NIGHTS (May 21-22, 2012)
MORAL AND SPIRITUAL SIGNS:2 TIMOTHY 3:1 This know also, that in the LAST DAYS perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers (treacherous), false
accusers, incontinent (without self-control), fierce (brutal), despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness (or religion), but denying the power thereof (or not living the substance of it): from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
LOOK AT THE TIMES IN WHICH WE LIVE TODAY:
• 1. teen-age rebellion• 2. free morality (without natural affection, open lgbt
love)• 3. covenant breakers (esp. marriage)• 4. era of brutal sports• 5. era of heinous crimes (the kind of stabbing we have
to today; the kind of rape)• 6. religious and churchy but will line up to a lady gaga
concert and pay twice• 7. big-time greed and corruption
A STRANGE CORROBORATIVE EVIDENCE: MASSIVE ANIMAL DEATHS
HOSEA 4:1 Hear the word of the LORD, You children of Israel, For the
LORD brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land: "There is no truth or mercy Or knowledge of God in the land.
2 By swearing and lying, Killing and stealing and committing adultery, They break all restraint, With bloodshed upon bloodshed.
3 THEREFORE THE LAND WILL MOURN; AND EVERYONE WHO DWELLS THERE WILL WASTE AWAY WITH THE BEASTS OF THE FIELD AND THE BIRDS OF THE AIR; EVEN THE FISH OF THE SEA WILL BE TAKEN AWAY.
HORRIFIC ANIMAL DEATHS IN 2013
NATURE BEARS WITNESS OF THE COLLAPSED MORAL ORDER OF THE LAST DAYS
• HOSEA 4:1 when "There is no truth or mercy Or knowledge of God in the land.
• 2 By swearing and lying, Killing and stealing and committing adultery, They break all restraint, With bloodshed upon bloodshed.
• 'Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.'
GOD’S FOOD SECURITY PROGRAM?
• IMPROVE AND STRENGTHEN THE MORALS OF THE PEOPLE!
IS FAMINE COMING?
• Speaking of the mass fish deaths in America, Mark Flammang, a fisheries biologist said ... "It's something I've never seen in my career, and I've been here for more than 17 years.“
• The Honey Bee crisis deepens as evidence shows there has been a dramatic increase in die offs .. up to 50 percent of Bees are dying now, creating worry over food supply.
• The Rise of Jellyfish over the past few decades is a harbinger of the health of the world's oceans!
FAMINE
• In the Asian, African and Latin American countries, well OVER 500 MILLION PEOPLE are living in what the World Bank has called "absolute poverty"
• Every year 15 MILLION CHILDREN DIE OF HUNGER• For the price of one missile, a school full of hungry children
could eat lunch every day for 5 years• Throughout the 1990's more than 100 million children will die
from illness and starvation. Those 100 million deaths could be prevented for the price of ten Stealth bombers, or what the world spends on its military in two days!
THE STATS
• The World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the world is well-fed, one-third is under-fed one-third is starving- Since you've entered this site at least 200 people have died of starvation. Over 4 million will die this year.
PASSIONLESS CHRISTIANITY
• Matthew 24:12 ...'And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.‘
Many Christians are not serious or passionate with the their love for and service to God…
THE BIBLE EVEN PREDICTED THE
SCOFFERS:• 2 Peter 3:3-4 ...'Knowing this first, that there shall
come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.' .
• 9 The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient towards you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
ONE LAST SIGN WE WANT TO LOOK AT:
THE SUPER-SIGN:
ISRAEL
SO MANY PROPHETIC SIGNS FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD RELATE TO
ISRAEL:
Some examples:1. Israel will disappear but will be reborn as a nation IN ONE DAY (Isa 66:8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall
the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
– fulfilled in May 14, 1948 when Israel became nation2. That Jerusalem will be re-possessed by Israel (prior to the rebuilding
of the Temple) – fulfilled in 1967 during the 6-day war
Israel prophecies (signs of the times):
3. That Israel, after being a nation of dead and dry bones (fulfilled in the Second World War with Jews in the gas chambers), will become a strong and powerful nation (Prophecy of Ezekiel)
THERE ARE, HOWEVER, A SERIES OF PROPHECIES CONCERNING ISRAEL THAT ARE SAID TO BE PRIOR TO THE DAY OF THE LORD, OR THE COMING OF THE LORD:
GAZA WILL BE FORSAKEN:
ZEPHANIAH 2:1 “Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not
desired; 2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff,
before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD'S anger come upon you.
3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.
4 For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation: they shall drive out Ashdod at the noon day, and Ekron shall be rooted up.”
Gaza was assigned to the tribe of Judah. In 2004, the Hamas wanted it freed of Jewish settlers.
Fulfilled in 2005. Land for peace deal. Gaza was uprooted at noonday by the Israeli government itself. Gaza was “forsaken”.
NOW THE BIBLE PREDICTS THAT, BEFORE THE LORD COMES:
1. The nations of the world will DIVIDE THE LAND OF ISRAEL
2. The TEMPLE WILL BE REBUILT in Jerusalem3. WAR INVOLVING ISRAEL4. Correlatedly, THERE WILL BE TROUBLE IN
EGYPT5. DAMASCUS (Capital of Syria) is SET FOR
DESTRUCTION
THE PARTITION PLAN:
Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, BEFORE THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY OF THE LORD COMES…
JOEL 31 “For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall
bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down
into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, AND PARTED (divided) MY LAND. “
PLO applies for membership in the U.N. with a plea for statehood. He wants Palestinian territory carved out of Israel. He got overwhelming
majority support from the General Assembly: (September 2012)
• ISRAEL and PALESTINE SEEK PEACE DEAL WITHIN NINE (9) MONTHS
• ISRAEL and PALESTINE SEEK PEACE DEAL WITHIN NINE (9) MONTHS
GOAL TO ACHIEVE A FINAL STATUS AGREEMENT OVER THE COURSE OF NINE MONTHS
JULY 2013 + 9mos = APRIL 2014
ISRAEL WANTS TO REBUILD
TEMPLE
• ISRAELI MINISTER: WE SHOULD REBUILD JERUSALEM TEMPLE
• Sunday, July 07, 2013 | Israel Today Staff • Jerusalem• An Israeli cabinet minister last week publicly stated
that perhaps the time has come to rebuild the biblical Temple on Jerusalem's Temple Mount.
THE VATICAN and the TEMPLEIsrael News: DEC. 02, 2013, the Pope and Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu meet re “MID EAST PEACE SOLUTION”…MAIN IDEAS:1. Palestine and Israel live SIDE BY SIDE in a divided Israel2. Al Aqsa Mosque (Dome of the Rock) stand side by side with the Third
Jewish temple
OBAMA STEPS IN
• Obama to Meet Abbas on March 17• By Elad BenariFirst Publish: 2/28/2014,
Abbas and Obama• Flash 90• U.S. President Barack Obamawill meet Palestinian Authority
(PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas on March 17, AFP reported on Thursday, stepping up Washington's efforts to convince the PA leader to embrace a peace deal with Israel.
• The meeting will come two weeks after Obama's planned encounter with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Monday, which will also take place at the White House.
OBJECTIVE of the meeting:
• According to the report, during his meeting with Netanyahu, Obama will make an “urgent appeal” to Netanyahu to accept Kerry's plan.
• The announcement was also made a day after Secretary of State John Kerry, who has been mounting an exhaustive diplomatic push, said that his quest to seal a full Middle East peace deal will slip beyond an April deadline.
• The PA’s chief negotiator, Saeb Erekat, rejected any extension of the talks, claiming that there is no point in doing so as long as Israel “continues to disregard international law.”
One more interesting sign!!• Joel 2:31 The SUN SHALL BE TURNED INTO
DARKNESS, and the MOON INTO BLOOD, BEFORE THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE DAY OF THE LORD COMES…
• Joel 3 … judge the nations… because they divided my land (ISRAEL).
THE SIGN MENTIONS A TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE AND A RED BLOOD MOON.
The solar eclipse with the red blood moon
How it would look in Israel:
THIS IS VERY INTERESTING BECAUSE:
1. This red blood moon falls on Jewish Feasts2. There have been previous red blood moons on crucial
dates of Israel’s history3. Two Red blood moons have involved wars4. There are at least two wars that Israel is prophesied to
fight in before Jesus comes:(the PSALM 87 WAR, and the EZEKIEL 38 WAR)
The PSALM 87 WAR involves countries now known as Islamic countries
The EZEKIEL 38 WAR involves a Russian-led coalition

The Burden of Egypt
Isa 19:1 The burden of Egypt.Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt:
and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence,and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.
2 And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians:and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against
his neighbour;city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof;and I will destroy the counsel thereof:
The Burden of Damascus
Isa 17:1 The burden of Damascus.
Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city,
and it shall be a ruinous heap.
•First mentioned in the Book of Genesis•The Oldest City in the World•All through history, constantly attacked but never removed as a city•Today the Capital City of Syria•Almost three years in civil war•2 million Syrians flee, over 5 million displaced
THERE IS A PROBLEM HOWEVER:
• Matthew 24:37 ...'But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.'For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 "and DID NOT KNOW until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
• Luke 17:28-30 ...'Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.'
The BIG QUESTION:
WHAT MUST WE DO NOW?
FIRST, AND MOST BASIC OF ALL, WE MUST RECOGNIZE THAT THERE IS NO OTHER SAVIOR OTHER THAN GOD
ALONE
ISAIAH 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD, and APART FROM ME THERE IS NO SAVIOR.
ACTS 4:12 “For salvation is found in no one else, FOR THERE IS NO OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN AMONG MEN WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED.”
2. WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SINS, RETURN TO GOD, RECEIVE JESUS AS OUR LORD, and LIVE
RIGHT
John 1:12 “For as many as RECEIVED Him, to them He gave the RIGHT to become the SONS OF GOD, even to them who believe in His name.”
COLOSIANS 2:6-7 “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted and built in him, strengthened in the faith that you were taught, overflowing with thankfulness.”
UNITE IN PRAYER, STAND IN THE GAP, INTERCEDE FOR THE LAND
JOHN 17 – Jesus prayed for all His believers, “that they may be one”
PSALM 133 – the blessings of unity of those who believe in God
JEREMIAH 33:3 “Call unto me, and I will ANSWER YOU, AND SHOW YOU GREAT AND MIGHTY THINGS which are beyond your knowledge.”
I THESSALONIANS 5:17 “pray without ceasing”
LUKE 19:46 “My House shall be called a House of Prayer.”

• 2. RECEIVE JESUS AS LORD AND SAVIOUR • 3. LET US LIVE RIGHT, according to His Word,
AND SERVE HIM• 4. STAND IN THE GAP FOR THE LAND,
INTERCEDE FOR THE ISLAND AND THE NATION -- pray, pray, pray• 5. LET US BE READY FOR CHRIST’S RETURN!
