Where Are We In Biblical Prophecy

Where Are We Now in Biblical Prophecy

By

Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr.

OPENING:- It doesn’t matter if you are a Biblical Scholar, a Biblical Novice, or totally ignorant to the Bible when you hear and see the asinine things taking place is our society, the political system turning into a chaotic menagerie of mindless incompetent blind followers hellbent on the dehumanization of people considered beneath the social, economic, and political status quo, the abolishment of humanitarian structures designed to help those in need, the revocation of civil rights, the destruction of the Federal Government system, and the retaliation against those that were standing for justice and doing what is right according to both the laws of God and man, you ask the question What’s going on? Are we living in the end times? And Exactly Where Are We in Biblical Prophecy?

Is it any wonder that a group of people who believe they have a divine right to wield authority over the world would see others as a threat? We have scapegoats being blamed for all kinds of economic issues like the price of eggs going sky high, crime being out of control, and jobs being taken away from decent law-abiding citizens. Now the mission and focus of government partly is the gathering of these individuals and removing them from society. This is simply the result of Dehumanization. Dehumanization is the denial of full humanity in others along with the cruelty and suffering that accompany it. A practical definition refers to it as the viewing and the treatment of other people as though they lack the mental capacities that are commonly attributed to humans.

Dehumanization is one form of incitement to genocide. It has also been used to justify war, judicial and extrajudicial killing and slavery, the confiscation of property, denial of suffrage and other rights, and to attack enemies or political opponents.

This menagerie of mindless incompetent blind followers are projecting onto others what they already have done and desire to do more of themselves. Then we hear the President of the United States make a statement that incites the threat of War and immediately rumors of war begin to circulate and people are wondering what is going on while drawing laughter and applause from the Zionistic thinking Evangelical leaders who are supposed to be the standard bearers of morality, decency and Biblical authority.

So Biblically, where do we currently stand and what lies ahead.

PRAYER

SCRIPTURE: - Matthew 24:6-7 “And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places”.

Understand wars and rumors of wars are not completely related to the end times. When the Bible speaks of the end times, it describes some intense warfare. However, Jesus’ point seems to be that there always has been war, and, until He establishes peace in the Millennial Kingdom, there will always be war. Therefore, wars and rumors of war are not the main predictors for the end times, but as the time approaches Jesus’ return these wars will be more frequent and fiercer. Now the famines and pestilences I truly believe can be and will be brought on by the idiotic things that are being done right now like the dismantling of USAID and the abolishment of vaccines that are taking place.

So exactly where are we in Bible prophecy. The timeline of the future end times is revealed in Daniel 9:27 “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate”. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3 “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition”. Understand the timeline and the order of events. First it is the rapture, the antichrist, the peace treaty with Israel, and then the Day of the Lord?

Now there are 3 variations of interpretations concerning the Rapture they are Pre-Tribulation which is how I believe and teach, Mid-Tribulation that believe the Rapture takes place at the 3 ½ year point of the Tribulation and Post-Tribulation the Rapture happens after the Tribulation.
