Three Thoughts on the End Times

“Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.”
–Revelation 16:15

A few thoughts about the end times taken from several recent discussions.

1- The one-world government is already in place when the man of sin appears on the scene.

Many believe the one-world government is ushered in at the same time as the man of sin.

This is incorrect.

The one-world government system is already in place when the man of sin appears. The one-world government system makes its appearance first, THEN the man of sin rises to power by usurping the power of three of the ten rulers in the system.

The prophet Daniel is recorded as having a dream about 4 beasts (systems of government/world empires). The fourth beast Daniel saw was the end times one-world government empire. This empire has 10 horns (rulers/kings). Then another “little horn” arises and takes a seat of power.

Well, three seats, actually.

“After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.”
–Daniel 7:7-8

“And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.”
–Daniel 7:24

2- Many moderns teach that the beast in Revelation 13 is a guy called the Antichrist.

This is not entirely correct.

According to the Book of Daniel, the beast is BOTH a king AND a kingdom (empire/government system).

The context of the word determines which is which.

“These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth.”
–Daniel 7:17

“Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.”
–Daniel 7:23

3- The end times are a time of great displays of supernatural power.

Power deceives, but NOTHING deceives like supernatural power.

The Bible describes several great end times displays of demonic/satanic power which deceives men. For some reason, man likes to attribute supernatural power to God Almighty.

God’s Word warns specifically that in the end times, this is not so.

“And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast”
–Revelation 13:13-14

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders”
–2Thessalonians 2:9

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
–Matthew 24:24

“And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.”
–Revelation 16:13-14

Yes, God Almighty will do great miracles during the end times–particularly as it concerns the salvation of man–BUT God’s Word already warns that the most public of miracles, signs and wonders will come from the enemy.

DOES the reader believe God’s Word or the stories of man?

It is not yet too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
