When Rev.17 says the 10 kings give their power to the beast I believe it may be referring to the time when the mouth that speaks as a dragon of Rev.13 comes to power. And tells the world to worship the beast that went before him that was represented by the 10 kings. Now 7 after he plucks up 3 by the roots as Dan.7 says. Which is how the final 8th beast system under antichrist comes to power. Ultimately causing all both small and great, rich and poor, and free and bond to receive a mark in their right hand or forehead that will be the only way they are allowed to buy and sell.
I have always said that the coming 7th empire is Satan’s team A destroying Satan’s team B. And that this is in order to bring even a greater deception upon those who would not be fooled by the harlot’s jab and mandates.
And what are we seeing today? That very thing playing out across the whole earth. People everywhere are celebrating MAGA. Even so called Christians who ignore its pro abortion and pro homosexual rights platform.
Saying Trump’s name with the same veneration and solemnity they would have previously only reserved for God. Showing us that the deception has worked even on those who would claim the name of Jesus.
Why is it working? Because as Paul said in 2Thes.2 they never came to a love for the truth. They accepted instead the counterfeit religion of Gnosticism. The doctrine of original sin and sin nature. A religion that denies the doctrine of Christ because they have believed the flesh is evil.
Many of them crying with joy for Trump’s ascendency to the throne. Willingly giving to him the power of a king. A king who will deliver them from the evils of this world. Believing him to be appointed by God to this position. When Rev.17 shows us that it is really the opposite.
And now as we look at the reality of what has actually taken place we see a picture of what is to come. A testament to this being the fact that many states put on their ballots and passed a state constitutional initiative to amend their constitutions that decriminalizes abortion. The murder of babies in the womb. And gives special rights to those who would mutilate children. Even though those same states elected Trump to be the next president in great numbers.
Showing us that the vast majority that voted MAGA are also those whose morals are such that they voted to decriminalize the murder of babies in the womb. Exposing for us exactly what MAGA truly represents for most people. Freedom to act immorally in the most heinous way.
Homosexuality that is an abomination to God and against nature. And abortion that is defined by God as murder to be punished with death. These 2 create a line that the Christian who loves the truth should never cross.
But, cross they did. And in greater numbers than ever before. Why? Because of fear for the other side keeping power. To do what? Among other things to murder babies and promote homosexual rights.
Oh yes, by them keeping power pocketbooks would be negatively affected. And God given freedoms enshrined in our constitution and bill of rights would be infringed upon.
But, are these an acceptable trade off for what MAGA represents? This is a question that many will come to grips with as we see things unfold.
Also I was thinking about how Trump’s first term went, and I don’t know whether this means anything prophetically significant or not, but it hit me that whether intentional or not there seems to be some parallels between his coming and Jesus’.
When the Old Testament spoke of Jesus the Jews believed it was saying He would come and vanquish their enemies. And they would rule over the earth with Him.
But, we know that what actually happened is that when He came the first time He came as a lamb to be slain. And that after this He would go away for a while. To return later as a lion to vanquish Israel’s enemies as they thought He would do when He came the first time.
When Trump came the first time he too came like a lamb. Having made many statements about how he would vanquish our enemies. But, he was persecuted relentlessly. And could hardly make any headway with the people he came to help.
Then also like Jesus, he went away for a time. And just as the world has done since Jesus came the first time, during the time Trump was away things just kept getting worse and worse.
Now that he has come back he is coming out guns a blazing to vanquish his enemies. Coming back as a lion as the Bible says Jesus will to take vengeance upon those who persecuted him and those loyal to him.
He said when he left that he would be back but in a different form. I think I know now what he meant by this. That having first come first come as a lamb. Next he would return as a lion.
And from what he is saying he will do in this term a lion he is.
Just some things I found interesting about Trump’s 1st and 2nd coming and the interim in between. And how the Bible says Jesus came first as a lamb. But, will return as a lion. With an interim in between called the New Covenant. Where those who have believed in Jesus are led by the Holy Spirit to discern between the kingdom of God and the kingdoms of this world.
If after hearing this message you would like to have eternal life. Then call out to Jesus confessing Him as Lord. And believe in your heart that He has raised from the dead. Do this and you will be saved. Do this and you will have eternal life now and immortality at the resurrection. Do this… and I will see you there or in the air!
