Summary: When we look at what is happening in our world today do you ever stop and wonder is this the End-Times? Wrong is being called right and right is being called wrong. People are wondering how they are going to pay their bills, put food on the table and make it just a little while longer.
“It’s Happening Now”
By
Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr.
OPENING: - When we look at what is happening in our world today do you ever stop and wonder is this the End-Times? We have the longest government shut down in history, the food assistance program being used literally as a weapon against people basically because someone’s political ideology is different and they didn’t vote for you, the healthcare system is becoming unaffordable and is weaponized against the elderly, disabled, chronically ill, low income, mentally challenged, pregnant women, children, and babies who depend on it for everything from routine check-ups to emergency care. There is open persecution on the descendants of Jacob everywhere, our national freedom is threatened, Democracy is fading fast, our own National Guard is being turned against its very own people, the largest cuts to Medicare and Medicaid in history has been done just so billionaires can receive a tax break. We have a political system that is so corrupt and heartless and proud to carry like a badge of honor a title the richest people in the world killing the poorest people in the world.
Wrong is being called right and right is being called wrong. People are wondering how they are going to pay their bills, put food on the table and make it just a little while longer. How am I going to be able to get my medication that I so desperately need to survive and if I get it how will I be able to buy the food to eat to live. Kids don’t understand why there isn’t any milk in the refrigerator or cookies in the cabinet yet we have the President of the United States tearing down the East Wing of the White House to build a 300 million dollar ball room, send 40 billion to Argentina, who is trying to rape Americans out of 230 million because he feels hurt over some court proceedings from almost a decade ago. Every time his mouth opens a lie comes out of it yet still people especially those from around the world are intoxicated by him.
When we look at just that and compare it to Revelation the 13th chapter and start to put the pieces together you begin to understand and realize that the beast, the mark, the persecution of the saints is not some event that takes place in the future but actually is taking place right now, as a matter of fact is actually intensifying and once the Rapture happens will as the saying goes all Hell will break loose. The blueprint has been done, the groundwork has been done, and things are literally happening now.
We are closer than you think, we are living in the 13th chapter of Revelation right now. Now I know you may be thinking what is Bishop talking about, he has gone off the deep end, but if you just stay with me for a while I will bring this all together and show you through scripture where we are in this biblical time line so you can make sure people are prepared.
PRAYER
SCRIPTURE: - Revelation 13, Deuteronomy 28
Now I know I messed with a lot of our taught theology because we have all been taught that this is all something that that is going to happen in the future at some point after the Rapture. The Rapture is still going to happen because 2 Thessalonians 2:7 says “For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way” and we know that is the Holy Spirit which dwelleth inside of all of us that are filled with the Holy Ghost, so once we are caught up to meet Christ in the Rapture than everything else will come to fruition; however we will see that we are living now in Revelation 13 and have been living in it literally nearly 570, but because of deception, deceit, trickery, whitewashing and outright lies we believe that these events are something that is futuristic and is some far-off land.
There are those that will argue and say people will always suggest that current events are fulfilling Biblical prophecy, concerning the mark of the beast, economic control, and persecution of Christians. They will point to technological advancements and societal trends and increasing secularism as evidence of the coming Anti-Christ, then others will say it is all symbolic. My desire and determination is to open your eyes and most of all your mind to truth so that you will see for yourself.
We have been told that the Anti-Christ would come from Europe, Rome, or the Revived European Empire, but we are going to look at this with different eyes today and see where exactly he will come from and remember the lesson I taught a few weeks ago about understanding patterns and timing of the Anti-Christ I pointed out who possibly could be the Anti-Christ, where he will come from, I will show you exactly who the Harlot Mystery Babylon is and how she makes the nations drunk with wine of her wrath.
