“And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.” Daniel 12:8-9
Daniel was confused by what God revealed to him. Daniel didn’t understand the prophesy and asked God about it, but God told him to go his own way, or ignore the prophesies, because they will not be understood until the end times. There are many such prophesies. Prophesies that no one living more than 100 years ago could understand. Today, I’m going to use Dr. David Reagans study to show you things that only people living in the modern era can understand concerning scripture. [1]
Gog and Magog War
The prophesies within Ezekiel 38 and 39 could not be understood until Israel became a nation again, and the advent of Russia becoming an aggressor in the Middle East. These prophesies could not be understood until after 1948, when Israel became and independent country, and until 2008, when Russia invaded the country Georgia, providing direct access to the Middle East for Russian troops. Prophesy before our eyes! Russia has escalated its intrusion into the Middle East and we can see it happening today on news broadcasts.
The Magnitude of the Tribulation Carnage
At the time John wrote his prophesies in Revelation 6-9, it was impossible for war and pestilence to wipe out half of the earths population. They were spread too far and wide with only slow transportation systems (sailing vessels and horses). Today, everything John prophesied is possible. We can wage war globally, and we have fast global transportation systems and communication systems. In these prophesies, half the population of earth will die during the first 3.5 years of the tribulation. That’s over 3 billion people, wiped off the face of the earth in just 3.5 years. This prophesy wasn’t possible until the creation and proliferation of atomic weapons, and actually, today the technology has advanced enough that 3 billion people could be wiped out using modern smart weapons, including robotic drones.
Dr. Reagan has more examples, so I encourage you to watch his presentation, and if you have the time, read the transcript (see reference). We are at the end folks, and God could rapture the church at any time. Once the church is gone, the moral and ethical values of people will plummet, and life on earth will shortly thereafter fall into horrible deprivation and carnage. Don’t be here! Accept Christ as Lord and Savior and leave with us in the rapture. You only have a 50% survival rate if you try to live through the tribulation, and if you survive, you will be exposed to famine, disease, deprivation, pain, government control and profound loneliness (because you will be unable to trust anyone). Please don’t stick around for that. Accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior today!
