TOPIC:  THE VISION - REVELATION

NOTE:  MANY OF US AROUND THE WORLD HAVE HAD DREAMS AND VISIONS ABOUT WHAT IS COMING AND MUCH OF THAT RELATES TO THE BOOK OF  REVELATION IN THE BIBLE.  THIS PAGE IS MY ATTEMPT TO TRANSCRIBE A WEEK'S WORTH OF JIM BAKKER'S TELEVISION SHOWS WITH JOHN SHOREY WHOSE NEW BOOK SHOCKINGLY REARRANGES THE VARIOUS CHAPTERS IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION INTO WHAT HE THINKS IS THE REAL CHRONOLGY OF WHAT IS COMING IN OUR FUTURE.  WE'LL GET TO THAT,  BUT FIRST OF ALL WILL BE DAVID WILKERSON'S VISION, WHICH JOHN SHOREY FOUND IN AN UNUSED JACKET THAT HE PUT ON TO WATCH THE FIRST OF THE FOUR BLOOD MOONS ON APRIL 15, 2014.

THE VISION

SET THY TRUMPET TO THY MOUTH

 

THE LIST OF PROPHECIES - FROM 1984

 

 WARNING SIGNS

 

 

Before the great holocaust there will be smaller holocausts - the oil fields of the Middle East will be ablaze (this happened in Kuwait in 1991)  and the smoke will rise night and day as a warning of the greater holocaust yet to come.

 

There will be bombs falling on oil fields, on shipping docks and storage tanks.

 

There will be panic among all oil producers and shippers and upon all nations dependent on that oil.

 

Soon, very soon, an economic nightmare will explode into reality.  What frightful news it will be!

 

"On thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasure, thine and is come, and the measure of thy covetousness...

 

America is about to face a line of near hysteria, as banks close and financial institutions crumble - and our economy spins totally out of control. Gold and silver will also lose their value. 

 

The chaos coming cannot be stopped by our government.

 

Ezekiel warned, "The hands of the people of the land shall be troubled:  I will do them unto them after their way ... and according to their deserts will I judge them.

 

These prophecies once again reveal God's judgmental decrees to wicked nations.

 

Scoff if you choose, but the underlying fears about a collapse will soon become a tragic reality.

 

Numerous cracks will appear in our fragile prosperity, and soon even the most pessimistic will know in their hearts that a total collapse is certain.

 

1 Thessalonians:  For when they shall say Peace and Safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them.

 

 

Senators and congressmen will sit in stunned silence as they realize no one can stop the tailspin into chaos.

 

Business, political and economic leaders will be terrorized by its suddenness and its far reaching effects.

 

SHOREY:  When the suddenness happens, it will be too late to prepare.

 

EZEKIEL 14:13  Son man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mind hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:

 

This is happening in California right now with the drought now in it's third year.

 

The great holocaust follows an economic collapse in America. The enemy will make its move when we are weak and helpless.

 

EZEKIEL 7:19  The people will throw their silver into the streets and their gold will be like trash.  Their silver and gold will not save them from  the Lord's anger.  It will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs.

 

REVELATION 18:16  Woe to you who are at ease in Zion.  He would you that all lukewarm believers would be spewed out of his mouth.  You spoke the word of faith in providing for all your selfish needs.  Now you can say you have need of nothing.

You are "clothed in fine linen, and purple and scarlet and decked with gold, and precious stones and pearls."

 

In one hour, it will all be gone.  The stock market will burn- with all the buildings, the investments.  The skyscrapers will melt.  The fire of divine vengeance will turn cities into polluted wilderness.  Our government, our transportation systems, our food supplies, our communication networks.  (radio and television) all will be lost in one hour.

 

See Revelation 19:17-18

 

Have you been so blinded by prosperity, so deafened by the lusts and care of the world that you cannot have?

Can you not discern the times, know yet not the day of the Lord is at the door? Is this a time to be at ease, to give all your time and energy to your own interests?  Will you go days on end and not seek his face?

Will you keep on forgetting Him who called you out of bondage?  Will you neglect His Word, His House, His secret clout?

Will you comfort yourself by saying "He is not coming!  Judgment is not near!  I will relax, enjoy my life and pleasure and go be with Him when I have finished serving my own desires.

 

Revelation 1:  Bless is he that readeth, and they that hear the word of this prophecy.

 

"Son of man, behold, they if the House of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off.  Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God.  There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord."

EZEKIEL 12: 27-28

 

1 TIMOTHY 5:8  But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he hath desired the fair, and is worse than an infidel.

 

DAY 3

 

Jim Bakker thinks it will be a huge earthquake in the Los Angeles area, but we can only wait and see.  The main point is, we have to prepare for any eventuality no matter what is

 

A 4.2 earthquake just happened and scientists are expecting bigger ones.

 

Matthew 24:7  and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in diverse places.

 

Luke 21:28  And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift your heads, for your redemption draweth nigh.

 

J.B.  This Blood Moon was one of God's big flashing red lights.

 

These are flashing red lights of prophecy.  I believe we don't have many more months to prepare in a period of prosperity.  Would you say that?

 

SHOREY:  I actually believe the events of the blood moons are starting to put a time clock on the dots.

 

We've been seeing a whole lot of dots and we've been seeing how you can connect the dots, but we haven't been able to put a time frame around the dots.

 

But now I'm beginning to see a time frame linking into the dots.

 

You know the red stop light?  We are all going through life hustle-bustle.  We're not stopping for anything and its like we just come to an intersection, the light turned red and the Lord is saying, "STOP!  I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING."

 

And that's where we're at.

 

 

J.B.  Do you think the Jews are, in the next time period with something so major, that America is going to collapse totally financially, that the Jews who are here, the makers and many of the financial leaders that they are going to go back to Israel because its going to be so bad in the United States?  That's what you are saying in your writings!

 

SHOREY:  It's going to happen in three steps:

 

1.  Economic collapse

 

Our government, Senators, Congressman will recognize that it is unstoppable.  This will leak to a destruction in America.

 

2.  LOSS OF INTERNATIONAL AND MILITARY POWER

 

We will literally be brought to our knees and weakened to such a stage that our enemies will invade us.

 

INVASION OF AMERICA - Dreams of the Great Earth Changes

www.greatdreams.com/political/invasion_of_america.htm - 

When I researched Leopold 1744, I found that the heredity prince Leopold was the head of a group of soldiers who invaded Belgium, which began in 1744. 1776  ...

 

CONCENTRATION CAMPS IN THE U.S.?

www.greatdreams.com/concentration.htm - 

"There's not going to be some future event when the invading troops are going to show up. They're already here! When martial law is implemented, these foreign ...

 

 

 

I recognized this as I read it, "Oh my Lord. This is for NOW! This is the revelation on that I was supposed to receive that night.

 

 

J.B.  And another prophetic person gave You!

 

 

SHOREY!  Yes!

 

 

J.B.  You see!  That's why you need other people.  You need God to give you advice and don't just take anybody's advice.  Take only God's advice.

 

 

SHOREY!  And when I read this, it dawned on me the significance that this would have to the Blood Moons.

 

Because you see, when I was here in November sharing how I believe the event of the Blood Moons, based on previous Blood Moons - the event would be one of two types.  It would be a deliverance and war or it be an Exodus from a place of safety.

 

You know this happened in 1492 when the Jewish people were expelled from Spain and many traveled to the New world following the Blood Moons to find safety in America.

 

It was opened up.

 

And then in 1948 and 1949 when Israel was reborn and Israel was officially recognized as a nation.  The persecution that was still in Europe gave the Jews a place to exit from to go to a place of safety in Israel.

 

And I was saying in November that it looked like we had both types of events going on and lining up.

 

The Psalms 83 war is going to be a great victory for Israel. 

 

(The destruction of Damascus in Syria.)

 

 

And I believe there was be a coming time when there when the Jews will exit America to find a place of safety in Israel.

 

And the night of the Blood Moon to read about he destruction of Mystery Babylon   

 

Revelation 17-18  was a confirmation which says that the event that would follow a Blood Moon has always been one to two years after the 4th Blood Moon.

 

The 4th Blood Moon is on September 13, 2015, will mean that the Jews are going to exit America in 2016 and they are going to be doing it because America is falling apart.

 

That's where we start to see timing into the dots.

 

 

J.B.  The Jews gained control of Jerusalem following the six day war in 1967 - following a Blood Moon.

 

J.B.  Was that the last Tetrad?  It was actually 'during' the Blood Moon.

 

The Tetrads were:

 

April 24, 1967 - Passover

 

October 18, 1967  Feast of Tabernacles

 

April 13, 1968  Passover

 

October 6, 1968  Feast of Tabernacles

 

 

Somewhere here we are in the midst of another Blood Moon  the last one that you will ever know or will ever see, because the people living on earth - there is no more.  And now you are saying that you believe that the Jews of America will be back to Israel during this time and a there will be a mass Exodus.

 

So, you can imagine what will cause them - the only thing is - the only that ever caused it - we persecution and its problems.  It's warfare.

 

 

SHOREY:  Yes!  Revelation 17 and 18 talks about the destruction of Mystery Babylon and years ago when I would read 18:4, I thought it meant "the church" where is says, "Come out of my people"

 

But, in my boo, "The Lord Returns 2012-2020 I outlined very clearly why Mystery Babylon is America.

 

David Wilkerson drew the same conclusion.

 

You! Jim Bakker have said that the heart of America is New York City and the financial capital of the world and that could be the heart that is killed in a sense. That could be the focus of America's destruction.

J.B. ONE WORLD TRADE CENTER struck by lightning.  Is that not even prophetic enough?  The Bible talks about the One World Government!

The World is ruled by the Beast (One World Government)  Revelation 13:1-18

 

 

Revelation 13 King James Version (KJV)

13 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.

10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14 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; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

King James Version (KJV)

by Public Domain

 

 

On September 11th, 2001 were taken down - the Twin Trade Centers Buildings.  That was God's warning and He let his hand down.

 

God is saying, "That's MY lightning.  I am trying to send you signals to let you know that these things are happening.

 


I know that people aren't going to want to believe that.  You start stacking up the signs, the signs that God talks about in Genesis 1, that when the sun and moon were created to give signals to us and believe me these signals are happening.

 


Genesis 1:14   And God said, Let there be lights in the firmanent of the Heaven to divide the day from the night and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years.

 

The mass Exodus of the Jews - it's going to literally take something they are fleeing from in this country to have a safe home land.

 

Most people are not going to accept that, but that's how bad, according to the scriptures things are going to get, because people are just turning their backs on God.  We simply have just turned away.  All the teachings of the Word of God have been mocked and we are mocking God and judgment and the Bible says, unless we repent and he says "I'll hear you in heaven and I'll heal your land."

 

It's not happening.

 

2 Chronicles 7:14   If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I know from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

 

 

SHOREY:  Well!  The Jews in America have been very blessed.  They are some of the most affluent, they are some of the key leaders, they own a lot of businesses in America and its almost s if when the Exodus of the Jews from America would go to Israel, they were controlling so much commerce and economy in America, they were tied to this country because of the dollar.

 

Well!  The Shemitah year is coming.  It begins in September 25, 2014.  Many of these prophetic teachers are pointing to an economic collapse.

 

David Wilkerson, 30 years ago prophesied an economic collapse is coming and we are seeing the cracks in our infrastructure right now.

 

 

J.B.  And we've gone from about every 7 years, we've gone from judgment to judgment to judgment.  Isn't that right?

 

9/11 was a Shemitah year - September 11th, 2001 which was God's judgment and that horrible thing happened, and exactly to the minute .... 2008, was also a Shemitah year showed a record drop off in the stock market.

 

The largest crash in history ... 777 points.

 

Then it keeps happening and so you're saying the Shemitah year is coming.

 

 

SHOREY!  2015 - according to some of the guests that you've had on your program are saying that.

 

 

J.B.  Do you believe that all of this is saying to you ... and its saying it tome, but I know its saying to you too, that this is the final hour of prosperity for America.

 

If you are going to do something ...

 

You know God speaks to me to buy this place out.  You know we don't own Morningside.  We own part of this building, we own a few acres.  We own probably about 150 acres here.  Our ministry does and we own where the new studio is and we own the Old Mill and we own down by the Tabernacle and Lori's house (the house for unwed pregnant women) .  We own all those pieces of land, but all in between - the conference that put up the money to do this, they asked us to buy them out because they kind of want to retire from this, and do some other things, and we believe its time because this is to be, and God has shown me the plan - a plan that God showed me 0 years ago - almost 25-30 years ago.

 

The buildings are tornado proof that will heat with a hair dryer or a candle.  "Dome homes".  We call them Hobbit homes.  But God has given me the plan and God says, "Do it now!"

 

I really believe we are to build a big amphitheater so people can come and sing and shout and Karen Wheaton and Kevin and the young people are preaching here and can break loose.

 

It's time to do it.

 

It's going to be a miracle and God said, "It's time for you to take the headship for this thing and go for it and so its up to some people who have the funds to release them.  It's up to some people to bless.

 

 

The exodus event that's coming up because of the Blood Moons - something big will have to happen to cause the Exodus event - which means its pushing the time envelope.

 

 

When we get into the 5 'end-time wars and we look at the Psalms 8 war happens this year, that pushes the envelope of time even closer, so right now there is still money out there - there is still food out there.  Its like people are at ease - they aren't computing with 20 to 50% of the population rushing to the store and rushing to buy food.

 

Now is the time, because we could literally be down to months instead of years to get prepared.

 

 

SHOREY:  The thing is - precious metals are going down in value.  Precious metals go up and spike when there is fear that we are heading for a crash.  But right now, people are preaching that we are working our way out of it, the market is improving, and so people are saying, "Well!  If the economy is going this well and the economy is not going to crash, I'd better get out of precious metals and people who are believing this bubble are getting out of precious metals and precious metals are dropping.

 

Then you

look at the stock market - its at an all time high and you know there is manipulation in the stock market - without going into detail

it really should not be high where it is, but I will tell you something - when the stock market reaches its all time high....

 

So, if the stock market could ever be paused for a crash, it will happen at it's highest point and its there now!

 

NOTE:  It WENT OVER 17,000 FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER SINCE THIS SHOW AIRED.

 

 

J.B.  We are entering a very serious, dangerous part of life - of history.

 

 

SHOREY:  The good news is, for ever how long it lasts, we're in the lull before the storm.  We're still in the period where money can be had out there.

 

I'm going to tell a testimony of my own preparation.  I've been preparing for longer than most of you out there.

 

Because of my study into the 5 end-times wars, I realized I needed to prepare to a higher level than where I'm at right now.

 

I am ramping up.  What bothers me - what makes me nervous is that I know a lot of people who are preparing - but far more 'aren't' preparing.

 

But, when I talk to people who are preparing, I always ask them this question - how long are you preparing for?  Most of them are prepared for less than a year or maybe a year.  Almost none are prepared for two years.

 

 

J.B.  Most people are only prepared for 3 days.

 

 

SHOREY:  With most families - at 7 days, the last can of beans is gone.

 

But as for us preppers, people who see what's coming, they say its about  to 5 percent of the people see something coming and are preparing.

 

 

J.B.  A lot of people make fun of preppers.  Just know that if you are made fun of, you might be on the right side.

 

 

 

SHOREY:  I've heard preachers and teachers say that we are going to be out of this sooner than later.

 

There are more and more of the early rapture people that are saying, "You need to get your pantry full.  Something might happen.

 

I was just reading a book you recommended that I read - on TV, he's one of the pre-early exit types, and yet in his book, he's talking about all kinds of preparation stuff.

 

And I heard a preacher say we have just six weeks, and some are saying as much as 6 months.

 

My question is -  what are you going to do after 6 weeks?  What are you going to do after 6 months?  What are you going to do after a year?

 

So, I just ordered your 7 years of food in the totes.  Time of trouble is coming.

 

I know a number of people who own companies that sell food - personally.  I was talking to one of them and he told me that things just aren't moving but he said, one of the reasons is, we just can't compete with Jim Bakker.

 

In my ramping up, I'm redesigning what I need to prepare for more than my family.

 

Personally, I think I need to prepare for four years.  In my preparing, I am also raising some food and buying extra beans and rice to make the food go further.  right now I have enough food for 8 to 10 people.

 

In my studies of the 5 end-time wars, we are going to have to get together in groups.

 

 

J.B.  The thing is, if people find out you have food, they are going to come to your house, so you need more food than you think you do.

 

A lot of farmers have gas tanks on their farms.  They may want some of this where the drought is.  In California right now we are having one of the most severe droughts that is affecting the world.

 

15 to 20 percent of all vegetables, fruits, and nuts come from California.

 

What's going to happen if an earthquake happens at the same time?

 

If you have money  - people will say, "we don't want that, we can't do anything with that, because at some point, money is just going to be devalued totally.

 

Food is the greatest bartering tool on the face of the earth.

 

Rick Joyner told me the greatest thing you can do is have something to barter.

 

Freeze dried food in a Mylar packet lasts 30 years.

 

 

SHOREY:  I was thinking about getting a goat or a cow for providing milk and decided against it because when things get bad and people know you have a goat, someone is going to steal that goat so I decided to buy freeze dried whey milk instead.

 

If you have a goat you also have to provide its food and the pens and all the work and infrastructure for it, so buying a supply of whey milk is a better way to go.

 

 

J.B.  Jesus said that before he comes back, there is going to be famine across the entire world.

 

Luke 21:11  And great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, and famines, and pestilences.

 

Some people won't have food like we do, they will be filling their bellies with dirt instead so they don't feel hungry.

 

 

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES AND THE END OF THE AGE

 

MATTHEW 24:  3-14

 

Jesus Foretells the Future

24 As Jesus was leaving the Temple grounds, his disciples pointed out to him the various Temple buildings. 2 But he responded, “Do you see all these buildings? I tell you the truth, they will be completely demolished. Not one stone will be left on top of another!”

3 Later, Jesus sat on the Mount of Olives. His disciples came to him privately and said, “Tell us, when will all this happen? What sign will signal your return and the end of the world?[a]”

4 Jesus told them, “Don’t let anyone mislead you, 5 for many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah.’ They will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and threats of wars, but don’t panic. Yes, these things must take place, but the end won’t follow immediately. 7 Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. 8 But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come.

9 “Then you will be arrested, persecuted, and killed. You will be hated all over the world because you are my followers.[b] 10 And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other. 11 And many false prophets will appear and will deceive many people. 12 Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved.14 And the Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations[c] will hear it; and then the end will come.

15 “The day is coming when you will see what Daniel the prophet spoke about—the sacrilegious object that causes desecration[d] standing in the Holy Place.” (Reader, pay attention!) 16 “Then those in Judea must flee to the hills.17 A person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack. 18 A person out in the field must not return even to get a coat. 19 How terrible it will be for pregnant women and for nursing mothers in those days.20 And pray that your flight will not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For there will be greater anguish than at any time since the world began. And it will never be so great again. 22 In fact, unless that time of calamity is shortened, not a single person will survive. But it will be shortened for the sake of God’s chosen ones.

23 “Then if anyone tells you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah,’ or ‘There he is,’ don’t believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will rise up and perform great signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, even God’s chosen ones. 25 See, I have warned you about this ahead of time.

26 “So if someone tells you, ‘Look, the Messiah is out in the desert,’ don’t bother to go and look. Or, ‘Look, he is hiding here,’ don’t believe it! 27 For as the lightning flashes in the east and shines to the west, so it will be when the Son of Man[e] comes. 28 Just as the gathering of vultures shows there is a carcass nearby, so these signs indicate that the end is near.[f]

29 “Immediately after the anguish of those days,

the sun will be darkened,
     the moon will give no light,
the stars will fall from the sky,
     and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.[g]

30 And then at last, the sign that the Son of Man is coming will appear in the heavens, and there will be deep mourning among all the peoples of the earth. And they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.[h] 31 And he will send out his angels with the mighty blast of a trumpet, and they will gather his chosen ones from all over the world[i]—from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven.

32 “Now learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its branches bud and its leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near. 33 In the same way, when you see all these things, you can know his return is very near, right at the door.34 I tell you the truth, this generation[j] will not pass from the scene until all these things take place. 35 Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear.

36 “However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself.[k] Only the Father knows.

37 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. 38 In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat. 39 People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes.

40 “Two men will be working together in the field; one will be taken, the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding flour at the mill; one will be taken, the other left.

42 “So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming. 43 Understand this: If a homeowner knew exactly when a burglar was coming, he would keep watch and not permit his house to be broken into.44 You also must be ready all the time, for the Son of Man will come when least expected.

45 “A faithful, sensible servant is one to whom the master can give the responsibility of managing his other household servants and feeding them.46 If the master returns and finds that the servant has done a good job, there will be a reward. 47 I tell you the truth, the master will put that servant in charge of all he owns. 48 But what if the servant is evil and thinks, ‘My master won’t be back for a while,’ 49 and he begins beating the other servants, partying, and getting drunk? 50 The master will return unannounced and unexpected, 51 and he will cut the servant to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

 

PROVERBS 22:3

 

The wise see danger ahead and await it, but fools keep going and get into trouble.

 

 

DAY 4

 

 

SHOREY:  Our steps are ordered by the Lord and that's how I ended up in the desert.

 

 

PSALM 37:23  The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and he delighteth in his way.

 

Two years before I moved to Arizona, I had a word of prophecy, that the greatest years of my ministry were ahead of me and by going to Arizona, I was alone in the desert and God blessed me financially to give me time - that's when I saw him and I said, "What am supposed to do to lead me to the greatest years of my ministry.  I had time to study the book of Revelation and to start writing the study that God told me I was supposed to do.  The rest is history.

 

I shared the study with Kevin (he is on the Jim Bakker show)  and Kevin shared it with you and yo9u e-mailed me and you said,
"I started reading this and I can't put it down."

 

 

J.B.  How long had I have the book before I called you?

 

 

SHOREY:  i think you had earlier notes for months, but then the book.  I believe you had it on your desk for at least a month and this is what is so cool is the night before you e-mailed me, I was praying in my prayer room and saying, "Lord!  I need a bigger door to open up for this message."

 

 

J.B.  How would you pick from hundreds of books?  When you don't have time to read hundreds of books!  So, I'm still wondering why I picked it up and read it!

 

 

SHOREY:  I was praying the day before - "Lord!  You have to open a bigger door and the next day you e-mailed me.

 

 The book of Revelation is not written down in chorological order.  In Chapter 1 - 1-1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servant.

 

Then in chapter 10, when John was writing the book of Revelation, an angel shows up and gives him a smaller scroll that has 4 chapters and John is interrupted and eats this and then in Chapter 17, he had just concluded his writing about the 7 bowls of God's wrath - the angel shows up again and gives him 2 1/2 more chapters, mostly about Mystery Babylon.

 

The Angel and the Small Scroll

10 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, surrounded by a cloud, with a rainbow over his head. His face shone like the sun, and his feet were like pillars of fire. 2 And in his hand was a small scroll[a] that had been opened. He stood with his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land. 3 And he gave a great shout like the roar of a lion. And when he shouted, the seven thunders answered.

4 When the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write. But I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Keep secret[b] what the seven thunders said, and do not write it down.”

5 Then the angel I saw standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand toward heaven. 6 He swore an oath in the name of the one who lives forever and ever, who created the heavens and everything in them, the earth and everything in it, and the sea and everything in it. He said, “There will be no more delay. 7 When the seventh angel blows his trumpet, God’s mysterious plan will be fulfilled. It will happen just as he announced it to his servants the prophets.”

8 Then the voice from heaven spoke to me again: “Go and take the open scroll from the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.”

9 So I went to the angel and told him to give me the small scroll. “Yes, take it and eat it,” he said. “It will be sweet as honey in your mouth, but it will turn sour in your stomach!” 10 So I took the small scroll from the hand of the angel, and I ate it! It was sweet in my mouth, but when I swallowed it, it turned sour in my stomach.

11 Then I was told, “You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages, and kings.”

 

 

SHOREY:  So, John is putting it in chronological order and in the commentary and basically writes out what's going on in chronological order.  All of a sudden it jumps out at me that "Mystery Babylon" is one of the wars of the Second Seal.

 

1st. Seal:  White Horse

                   Spiritual Warfare / antichrist spirit  Rev. 6:1-2

 

2nd Seal:   Red Horse

                    Peace and Prosperity Labor  Rev. 6:3-4 

 

3rd Seal:    Black Horse

                    Famine / Inflation  Rev. 6: 5-6

 

4th Seal:    Pale Horse

                   Death / Disease  Rev.  7-8 

 

Which means the destruction of Mystery Babylon happens BEFORE the Rapture.

 

That was a paradigm shift for me.

 

Then the War of the 6th trumpet is in Revelation 9.

 

I always thought that was about the Battle of Armageddon.

 

When you read this book, you can see there are separate wars.

 

 

J.B.  It says in the Bible - if you give to a prophet, you'll get a prophet's reward or something like that.

 

 

Matthew 10:41  He that receiveth a prophet in the home of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward.

 

 

The Twelve Apostles

10 uAnd he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction. 2 vThe names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and xAndrew his brother; xJames the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and yMatthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;1 4 Simon the Zealot,2 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Jesus Sends Out the Twelve Apostles

5 uThese twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles and enter no town of zthe Samaritans, 6 abut go rather tobthe lost sheep of cthe house of Israel. 7 And proclaim as you go, saying,d‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ 8 eHeal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers,3 cast out demons. fYou received without paying; give without pay. 9 gAcquire no gold or silver or copper for your belts, 10 no bag for your journey, or two tunics4 or sandals or a staff, for hthe laborer deserves his food. 11 And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it and stay there until you depart. 12 As you enter the house,igreet it. 13 And if the house is jworthy, let iyour peace come upon it, but if it is not worthy, let iyour peace return to you. 14 And if anyone will not receive you or listen to your words, lshake off the dust from your feet when you leave that house or town. 15 Truly, I say to you, mit will be more bearable on the day of judgment for nthe land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town.

Persecution Will Come

16 o“Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be pwise as serpents and qinnocent as doves. 17 Beware of men, for rthey will deliver you over to courts and flog you sin their synagogues, 18 rand you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, tto bear witness before them and the Gentiles. 19 rWhen uthey deliver you over,vdo not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for wwhat you are to say will be given to you in that hour. 20 xFor it is not you who speak, but ythe Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 zBrother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death, 22 aand you will be hated by all for my name's sake. bBut the one who endures to the end will be saved. 23 When they cpersecute you in one town, dflee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israelebefore the Son of Man comes.

24 f“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant5 above his master. 25 It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. gIf they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign6 those of his household.

Have No Fear

26 “So have no fear of them, ifor nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. 27 What I tell you in the dark, say in the light, and what you hear whispered, proclaim on jthe housetops. 28 And kdo not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him lwho can destroy both soul and body in hell.7 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?8 And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. 30 But meven the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Fear not, therefore; nyou are of more value than many sparrows. 32 oSo everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, 33 but pwhoever denies me before men, qI also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.

Not Peace, but a Sword

34 r“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. sI have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 rFor I have come tto set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36 uAnd a person's enemies will be those of his own household. 37 vWhoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And wwhoever does not take his cross and xfollow me is not worthy of me. 39 yWhoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

Rewards

40 z“Whoever receives you receives me, and awhoever receives me receives him who sent me. 41 bThe one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward. 42 And cwhoever gives one of dthese little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.”

 

 

J.B.  We are worried about what somebody thinks and if you have a dream  or vision like I have and see the future, you just gotta let them laugh, because it is so important that you can feed them.

 

Little babies screaming for food.  Why wouldn't you put a little food away - what does that hurt?

 

I want people to be ready because I knew the Revelation.  God allowed me to set aside at least a 5 year period and even longer so I studied this Revelation word by word.  This is the reason I am so passionate about it.

 

 

DAY 5

 

SHOREY:  When I wrote my first book I could see three wars including the Battle of Armageddon.  Those three wars were significant prophetic wars.  There are wars going on all the time.  I'm talking about Bible level prophetic wars.

 

What I had seen was the Psalms 8 war.  When I first saw that war, I didn't have it tagged with that name until Bill Silva who wrote the book....

 

END TIMES WARS THAT MUST TAKE PLACE.

 

1.  The Psalm 83 war.

 

What he was saying lined up with what I previously saw.  It had great significance.  It could affect the globe but it wasn't a world war. It wasn't including the superpowers of the United States or Russia but it would be a Middle East war that would have major significance.

 

So, that was the first war. 

 

NOTE:  That could be going on right now in Syria.

 

The second war was the war of Gog and Magog.

 

See Ezekiel  38-39

 

 

That  would include Russia and the Middle East countries confederating and going after Israel.

 

I always said that this is going to be such a decisive Victory for Israel that if it happened early that Israel would know that "we don't need the Peace Treaty with the Antichrist because we've already been shown by God that He has loved our land.  He would break the back of our enemies.

 

Therefore this is a war that happens after the Antichrist arrives - after the 7 year covenant is made.

 

NOTE:  The Antichrist doesn't announce his presence until after the third Temple is built in Jerusalem.  The plans are all complete - we just need for the timing so it can be built.

 

I'm going to read it and you are going to see how powerful this is that we would well know that there is a God that is protecting Israel.

 

Ezekiel 38:16   You will advance against my people Israel like a cloud that covers the land.  On days to come, O they will come as a cloud to cover the land, so that the nations may know me when I showed myself Holy through you before their eyes.

 

REVELATION 9:16 - THE WARRIORS COMETH - ARMEGEDDON

www.greatdreams.com/rev916.htm - 

Jan 10, 2000 ... The book of Ezekiel, Chapter 39 tells us in numerous verses that the .....Ezekiel 38:16 - "And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, ...

 

EZEKIEL 38:21-23

 

I will summon a sword against Gog4 on all my mountains, declares the Lord God. hEvery man's sword will be against his brother. 22 With pestilence and bloodshed iI will enter into judgment with him, and jI will rain upon him and khis hordes and the many peoples who are with him ltorrential rains and hailstones,mfire and sulfur. 23 So I will show my greatness  and my nholiness andomake myself known in the eyes of many nations. Then pthey will know that I am the Lord.

 

You see if this happened before the Antichrist, Israel would say, "God has shown us he can hurt us.  85% of the Russian Army is destroyed.  And so, therefore, I see this happening just before the Antichrist desecrates the Temple, just before the rapture and the Antichrist shows up in Israel and he says, "I am God and the Victory of Gog and Magog was ME."

 

He will take credit and say that he is God.

 

What is so funny is that He puts Israel to flight.  Its a little bit confusing because its going to be a time when the Jews are going to have to flee from the Antichrist because he breaks this treaty with them.

 

 

J.B.  Russia is a big player in this period of time.  God spoke to me years ago, in fact it was on the 9/11 when he gave me just about a year and a half before 9/11 and one of the big points was "Watch Russia, Iran, and Turkey."

 

So you are saying that Russia is going to play a big part in God and Magog - since we were children we were taught that's part of Russia.

 

You still believe that!

 

 

SHOREY:  You see, as I finish up the first three wars - Psalms 83, Gog and Magog and Armegeddon, but we have to factor in two more wars.

 

Instead of Gog and Magog being the second war, the destruction of Mystery Babylon of America is the second war.  It is one of the wars of the Second Seal.

 

When the Antichrist is revealed - the second horse - the second seal is war and then there is famine and plague and pestilence.  All this stuff is lumped together.

 

Revelation 6:8  And I looked and behold a Pale Horse, and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell follows with him and power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword and with hunger, and with death, and the beasts of the earth.

 

One fourth of the earth is going to be involved with this which is bigger than just the United States.

 

Literally, men are just going to be turning against each other.  There is going to be killing all over the globe, but its not going to be a world war. Its going to affect 1/4 of the earth.  And I believe that part of that 1/4 will be America.

 

THE DESTRUCTION OF MYSTERY BABYLON

 

REVELATION 17

 

The Great Prostitute

17 One of the seven angels who had poured out the seven bowls came over and spoke to me. “Come with me,” he said, “and I will show you the judgment that is going to come on the great prostitute, who rules over many waters.2 The kings of the world have committed adultery with her, and the people who belong to this world have been made drunk by the wine of her immorality.”

3 So the angel took me in the Spirit[a] into the wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that had seven heads and ten horns, and blasphemies against God were written all over it. 4 The woman wore purple and scarlet clothing and beautiful jewelry made of gold and precious gems and pearls. In her hand she held a gold goblet full of obscenities and the impurities of her immorality. 5 A mysterious name was written on her forehead: “Babylon the Great, Mother of All Prostitutes and Obscenities in the World.” 6 I could see that she was drunk—drunk with the blood of God’s holy people who were witnesses for Jesus. I stared at her in complete amazement.

7 “Why are you so amazed?” the angel asked. “I will tell you the mystery of this woman and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns on which she sits. 8 The beast you saw was once alive but isn’t now. And yet he will soon come up out of the bottomless pit[b] and go to eternal destruction. And the people who belong to this world, whose names were not written in the Book of Life before the world was made, will be amazed at the reappearance of this beast who had died.

9 “This calls for a mind with understanding: The seven heads of the beast represent the seven hills where the woman rules. They also represent seven kings. 10 Five kings have already fallen, the sixth now reigns, and the seventh is yet to come, but his reign will be brief.

11 “The scarlet beast that was, but is no longer, is the eighth king. He is like the other seven, and he, too, is headed for destruction. 12 The ten horns of the beast are ten kings who have not yet risen to power. They will be appointed to their kingdoms for one brief moment to reign with the beast.13 They will all agree to give him their power and authority. 14 Together they will go to war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because he is Lord of all lords and King of all kings. And his called and chosen and faithful ones will be with him.”

15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters where the prostitute is ruling represent masses of people of every nation and language. 16 The scarlet beast and his ten horns all hate the prostitute. They will strip her naked, eat her flesh, and burn her remains with fire. 17 For God has put a plan into their minds, a plan that will carry out his purposes. They will agree to give their authority to the scarlet beast, and so the words of God will be fulfilled. 18 And this woman you saw in your vision represents the great city that rules over the kings of the world.”

REVELATION 18

 

The Fall of Babylon

18 After all this I saw another angel come down from heaven with great authority, and the earth grew bright with his splendor. 2 He gave a mighty shout:

“Babylon is fallen—that great city is fallen!
     She has become a home for demons.
 She is a hideout for every foul[a] spirit,
     a hideout for every foul vulture
     and every foul and dreadful animal.[b]
 3 For all the nations have fallen[c]
    because of the wine of her passionate immorality.
The kings of the world
     have committed adultery with her.
Because of her desires for extravagant luxury,
     the merchants of the world have grown rich.”

4 Then I heard another voice calling from heaven,

“Come away from her, my people.
     Do not take part in her sins,
     or you will be punished with her.
 5 For her sins are piled as high as heaven,
     and God remembers her evil deeds.
 6 Do to her as she has done to others.
     Double her penalty[d] for all her evil deeds.
She brewed a cup of terror for others,
     so brew twice as much[e] for her.
 7 She glorified herself and lived in luxury,
     so match it now with torment and sorrow.
She boasted in her heart,
     ‘I am queen on my throne.
I am no helpless widow,
     and I have no reason to mourn.’
 8 Therefore, these plagues will overtake her in a single day—
     death and mourning and famine.
She will be completely consumed by fire,
     for the Lord God who judges her is mighty.”

9 And the kings of the world who committed adultery with her and enjoyed her great luxury will mourn for her as they see the smoke rising from her charred remains. 10 They will stand at a distance, terrified by her great torment. They will cry out,

“How terrible, how terrible for you,
     O Babylon, you great city!
In a single moment
     God’s judgment came on you.”

11 The merchants of the world will weep and mourn for her, for there is no one left to buy their goods. 12 She bought great quantities of gold, silver, jewels, and pearls; fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet cloth; things made of fragrant thyine wood, ivory goods, and objects made of expensive wood; and bronze, iron, and marble. 13 She also bought cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle, sheep, horses, wagons, and bodies—that is, human slaves.

14 “The fancy things you loved so much
     are gone,” they cry.
“All your luxuries and splendor
     are gone forever,
     never to be yours again.”

15 The merchants who became wealthy by selling her these things will stand at a distance, terrified by her great torment. They will weep and cry out,

16 “How terrible, how terrible for that great city!
     She was clothed in finest purple and scarlet linens,
     decked out with gold and precious stones and pearls!
 17 In a single moment
     all the wealth of the city is gone!”

And all the captains of the merchant ships and their passengers and sailors and crews will stand at a distance. 18 They will cry out as they watch the smoke ascend, and they will say, “Where is there another city as great as this?” 19 And they will weep and throw dust on their heads to show their grief. And they will cry out,

“How terrible, how terrible for that great city!
     The ship-owners became wealthy
     by transporting her great wealth on the seas.
 In a single moment it is all gone.”

20 Rejoice over her fate, O heaven
     and people of God and apostles and prophets!
For at last God has judged her
     for your sakes.

21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a huge millstone. He threw it into the ocean and shouted,

“Just like this, the great city Babylon
     will be thrown down with violence
     and will never be found again.
 22 The sound of harps, singers, flutes, and trumpets
     will never be heard in you again.
No craftsmen and no trades
     will ever be found in you again.
The sound of the mill
     will never be heard in you again.
 23 The light of a lamp
     will never shine in you again.
The happy voices of brides and grooms
     will never be heard in you again.
For your merchants were the greatest in the world,
     and you deceived the nations with your sorceries.
 24 In your[f] streets flowed the blood of the prophets and of God’s holy people
     and the blood of people slaughtered all over the world.”

SHOREY:  Believe me, when America is brought to its knees, whether it be by EMP or some nuclear bomb in a few cities - that's war.

 

 

 

SHOREY:  David Wilkerson is saying a collapse will come to America and when we are weak, our enemies will come.  That is war.

 

And I see that as part of the war of the second seal.

 

So, after the second war, basically America was taken out as a superpower.

 

When the war of Gog & Magog gets ready to happen, Russia no longer has to look at America as anybody who is going to rush to America's aid.

 

Our back is going to be broken and it'll free Russia to cuddle up to the Muslim nations and say, "Okay!  You go! They'll make a treaty with us and we'll get as much oil as we want and we'll take out Israel for you.

 

That is what I see as the set up for the Gog & Magog war.  The thing that Russia isn't counting on is that there is a God in Heaven.  And Israel is the apple of his eye.

 

ZECHARIAH 2:8   unto the nations which spoiled you, for he that turneth you toucheth the apple of his eye.

 

GOD WILL NOT LET ANYONE POKE  HIM IN THE EYE.

 

 

 

 

SHOREY:  When Russia things that Russia is out of the way and Israel is defenseless, you need what I read in EZEKIEL 8

 

 

God is going to pour down torrents from Heaven.

 

EZEKIEL 38:22  I will execute judgment upon him with plague and bloodshed, I will pour down torrents of rain, and hailstones.

 

They will be like weapons that man never knew could exist.  And 80% of their army will be wiped out and with what is left, they will head back to Russia.

 

I see these three wars happening before the rapture.  And two of these will strongly affect America.

 

 

J.B.   So, a lot of Rock n Roll is going to happen before the rapture!

 

 

SHOREY:  Before the rapture will be the Psalms 8 war.  I discovered how it could be the domino that could cause economic collapse around the world.

 

And I believe the Psalms 7 war is going to happen before the tribulation starts.

 

NOTE:  The tribulation starts after the Antichrist is announced by himself on the Jerusalem Temple steps.  The Temple is not built yet.

 

I believe it could happen before this year is over.  I hope it doesn't.  I hope maybe that when the Psalms 83 war happens, maybe next year, it will be part of the judgment against the Gentile nations.

 

It could start March or April of 2015.  Because this is the scenario I see.  When the Psalms 8 war breaks out, it says that Damascus will be destroyed never to be inhabited again.

 


ISAIAH 17:1  The burden of Damascus, Behold!  Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.

 


You know, there haven't been a nuclear bomb destroy a city in almost 70 years and the day it happens, a nuclear bomb anywhere in the world can take out a city of over a million people, especially in the Middle East.

 

The Psalms 83 war, I see that it has two superpowers sitting on the sidelines are supplying the weaponry for each side.

 

Russia is supplying Syria, Iran and other countries and America has been the supply of armaments, in support to Israel.

 

We've actually sold Israel some of our best jet fighters.  I was having just recently that Israel taken our jet fighters and make them into better jets than even delivered to them.

 

 

J.B.  It's amazing!  This little country has become a major superpower.  And I believe its been done with God almighty.  You believe that the Psalms 8 war is next on God's agenda?

 

 

SHOREY:  It's not the next prophetic sent but its the next prophetic war.  Yes!

 

Psalms 83: 1-18  

 

Psalm 83

A song. A psalm of Asaph.

1 O God, do not be silent!
     Do not be deaf.
     Do not be quiet, O God.
 2 Don’t you hear the uproar of your enemies?
     Don’t you see that your arrogant enemies are rising up?
 3 They devise crafty schemes against your people;
     they conspire against your precious ones.
 4 “Come,” they say, “let us wipe out Israel as a nation.
     We will destroy the very memory of its existence.”
 5 Yes, this was their unanimous decision.
     They signed a treaty as allies against you—
 6 these Edomites and Ishmaelites;
     Moabites and Hagrites;
 7 Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites;
     and people from Philistia and Tyre.
 8 Assyria has joined them, too,
     and is allied with the descendants of Lot.

9 Do to them as you did to the Midianites
     and as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.
 10 They were destroyed at Endor,
     and their decaying corpses fertilized the soil.
 11 Let their mighty nobles die as Oreb and Zeeb did.
     Let all their princes die like Zebah and Zalmunna,
 12 for they said, “Let us seize for our own use
     these pasturelands of God!”
 13 O my God, scatter them like tumbleweed,
     like chaff before the wind!
 14 As a fire burns a forest
     and as a flame sets mountains ablaze,
 15 chase them with your fierce storm;
     terrify them with your tempest.
 16 Utterly disgrace them
     until they submit to your name, O Lord.
 17 Let them be ashamed and terrified forever.
     Let them die in disgrace.
 18 Then they will learn that you alone are called the Lord,
     that you alone are the Most High,
     supreme over all the earth.

 

 

 

Isaiah 17:1  A prophecy against Damacus.  "See, Domascus will no longer be a city, but will become a heap of ruins.

 

 

SHOREY:  People are saying that Damascus was aleady destroyed.  But it couldn't have already been destroyed because people are living in it right now.

 

There will be another prophetic event when Damascus is destroyed.

 

And it will never be inhabited again.  So that prophecy has not come to fulfillment yet.

 

 

J.B.  This is a definite event, very identifiable by scriptures that are absolutely clear... black and white.

 

And you believe that Syria is the trigger because that will cause a major world collapse then?

 

 

SHOREY:  An economic collapse . Yes!  The reason I believe that is that when one or two - it could be more nuclear bombs.  It could be one of their nuclear bombs that we sent to be take out Iran's nuclear weapons facilities.

 

 

J.B.  Do your think a nuclear bomb is involved?

 

The record is that it will take place before the tribulation.

 

 

SHOREY: My reasoning for that is that Iran is on a breakneck race to get nuclear warheads for their missiles.

 

It has been said that some people say that they would already have them by now and I know that Israel has been able to slow down the process.  They corrupted their computer 2 or 3 years ago.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And that set them back.

 

I was just recently hearing that they were going to attack Iran in the month before the election in 2012 but our government leaked their strategy so it would have been a pre-emptive seen attack so Israel backed down.

 

They were already going to do it, but Iran has not stopped their game plan moving forward to have nuclear weapons.  So, this is not something that can wait long.

 

 

J.B.  If Israel gets information - spy or whatever, if they find out underground or whatever, that Iran is coming and going to destroy them, they will be forced by their own survival to attack first.  So we're on the brink now!

 

 

SHOREY: Yes!  So what is happening in Israel is going to make that pre-emptive attack, but they are going to get in over their head.  The reason I believe that is - Russia is giving Iran such top weaponry and sophisticated weaponry and missile that they are going to start throwing all their stuff at Israel in going to be like grabbing a tiger by the tail that they are going to be backed up against the wall that they are going to be forced to use the Sampson option - to where "We have no choice - we're going to have the use the nukes.

 

 

J.B.  And people will think its the beginning of the 3rd World War!

 

 

SHOREY: Yes!  Russia and the United States were on the sidelines.  I  call it "referee!"  Each superpower doesn't get involved where those nukes start to fly and a major city in the world is annihilated, and feeling in the world will be that WWIII is about to start.

 

 

J.B.  Would it be like America and Russia are declaring war on each other?  We're both on the sidelines.  We're kind of like we are puppets back here, and yet they are going to feel like... we  all know more than what the world thinks we know.  Especially those who read the Bible.  These are the signs.  What you are giving us is some stuff we can identify. We see these events taking place.

 

 

 

SHOREY:  In 1962, I think it was ... the Cuban missile crisis... Russia had put missilles in Cuba and we had this crisis where President Kennedy set a blockade around the country - I think it was Kruschev, wasn't it?  And he was in the United Nations banging his shoe like it was a hammer and saying he was going to crush us.

 

It looked like we were on the verge of war.  A missile never fired and yet people were buying up food all over the place. And that's why I believe that when the day arrives that a city is destroyed by a nuclear bomb in the Middle East, 95% of the people in the wold - maybe even more - they are going to be thinking.... this is the last war ... this is WWIII and there will be a rush for food, or rush to Walmart, clean off the shelves like a snowstorm is about ready to happen.  But, let me tell you, you'll need a lot more food for a war than you need for a snowstorm.

 

And that panic that could come from that.

 

 

J.B.  This is really the sign these are the end days.  It is on stage.  This is not ... 'the stage is set' ... this is 'the play has begun!

 

 

SHOREY:  This is the kind there will be so much panic buying of food that I have actually -  it actually hit my mind and I don't know if it was implanted by God, but when the type of event hits there could be when our government steps in and takes over the food warehouses around the country.

 

And they could even go to "Food For Health" and said, "We are buying your food - all of it and are locking you down and putting guards on your warehouse - no more food is going out!"

 

And like I say, when that event happens, it's too late!

 

 

J.B. - Are you concerned about these laws that are being passed around the country that in time of trouble, they can take food from people's homes?

 

In other words, if you have 25 cans of beans, they can say, "everybody gets to keep 5 cans of beans and that's it!"

 

Basically, thats the kind of thing they are talking about and you read, "One Second After",

J.B.  And that's why we have to have a lot of wisdom. I'm trying to get a lot of people around me that can have wisdom!

 

 

SHOREY:  Actually, after studying the 5 wars of the end time, I have come to a different strategy of preparing.

 

#1 part of that strategy is that we have to be preparing for a group of people.

 

A group of people should rely on each other.   We need to be able to watch each other's backs.  You can't just be off by yourself somewhere.  When things go crazy, they are going to come and get all the food that you have.

 

So therefore, if you are the family member and your kids don't get it, if possible, you need to be storing food for you and your husband/spouse, but for your grown up kids that when they get it, they want to come to your house, you are going to need that group and enough food to feed them for awhile, or a long time.

 

So thats part of the change in strategy. You need to provide for a bigger group.

 

The other change of the strategy is -  Things could get so bad before its over - this is the part where we don't like to hear of this, but we need to hear it.

 

In Daniel and Revelations, it says the church and the saints will be conquered.

 

Revelation 13:7   He was given the power to make war against the saints to conquer them.

 

So our goal is not to make it to the rapture necessarily.  It would be nice if we could make it to the rapture, but I actually believe that the bigger goal shall be to have enough food to be able to reach out to enough people as possible because, if you aren't going to make it to the rapture and you are going to die anyway, lets bring some people with us.  Let's take some people with us.

 

That's our goal - not to hunker down and hide somewhere - to reach out in these times to friends and family and neighbors that we know are not saved and share our last meal with them.

 

In fact I have a strategy in my second book.  What churches can do and what families can do with their last food before the end.

 

There is no way a church can store enough food to feed all the people in the church until the Lord comes back.  It's impossible.

 

But imagine if a church stored enough food so that when all hell breaks loose and the economy collapses and the churches reaches out to their neighborhoods with flyers saying,  "we have food for a huge pot luck tonight and we'll be telling you about Jesus."  You sit them all down and feed these people and their hungry hearts and feed the people and they are listening because you see them putting food in their belly and it might be the last church pot luck you ever have, but you'll be saving every person in your neighborhood.

 

 

LORI BAKKER:  I like how at the end of your book you have the Sinner's Prayer so even if you don't know how to lead someone to the Lord during this time, you have this book.  Just open it up and just have them read the Sinner's Prayer.  That is awesome.

 

 

SHOREY:  Just let me say something else.  I have people coming to me about storing food.  I have some people come to me who want every answer that doesn't cost very much and I have a person of means who goes on trips and cruises frequently and I said, "The first thing you need to do is get the $3000 package of food and then build on it because you've got grown up kids and grand kids who are not preparing and their response is, "It's not going to happen."

 

I'll tell you what's going to happen is when things start falling apart, I'm going to get a phone call and they are going to say, "Can you pull some strings with the Bakkers so we can buy a couple of those $3000 packages?"  and its going to be too late to reach out and find any food.

 

One strategy is to borrow from your pension plan at work and buy the food because the food is good for 30 years and no matter what, thats what your family would have to buy with your pension plan or life insurance plan anyway.

 

 

J.B.  Food is going to be more valuable than gold or silver.  That's because the stores won't even have any food to buy at that time.

 

Don't forget water.  Most sickness is caused by dehydration.

 

 

DAY 6

 

L.A. EARTHQUAKE ' THE BIG ONE ' MAY BE ON THE WAY AFTER A 4.2 MAGNITUDE QUAKE.

One scientist claimed that this couold be a precurser to the feared 'BIG ONE'.

 

In 1999 Jim Bakker was shown 31 events that were going to happen.

 

9/11 2001 -  WATCH IRAN AND IRAQ.

EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN

WORLD FINANCIAL COLLAPSE

L.A. WILL BE LEVELED  (Lori and Jim lived in L.A. at the time)

 

Another prophet told him that the L.A. Quake would happen after the Japan Quake.  (The Japan quake happened in 2011)

Jim saw that the L.A. Quake would be 9.0

 

NOTE:  I personally saw that a quake would be a 10.0

 

 

 

The biggest quakes ever recorded were:

 

Southern Chile  9.5   - May 1960

 

Prince William Sound, Alaska  9.2  (March 1964)

 

Sumatra and Indian Ocean  9.0  (December 26, 2004)  It was on my birthday and I had dreamt about it  weeks earlier.

 

 

KUMCHATKA,  9.0  November 1952

 

JAPAN  9.0   March 11, 2011

 

 

The 9.0 earthquake coming to L.A. Tsunamis are coming - events are coming.  A volcano is going to cause the sun to go dark.

 

 

THIS IS NOTHING NEW ABOUT VOLCANOS -  THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY - SOMEWHERE

 

 

J.B.  The sun and the moon is going to go dark 

 

MATTHEW 24:29-30  and the stars shall fall from Heaven, and the power of the Heavens shall be shaken, and then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in Heaven

 

 

 

 

 

J.B.  Statistics suggest there is only enough existing food and supplies to take care of 5% of the American population.  What will happen if 20% to 50% suddenly start to prepare?

 

Any food remaining is already pre-purchased.

JOHN SHOREY BELIEVES THAT THE RAPTURE HAPPENS BETWEEN SEALS 6 AND 7

 

 

J.B.  FILM SHOWS JIM VISITING JOHN SHOREYS DESERT RANCH.

 

In connecting the dots, the Antichrist - all the things are already in place to rule the wold

 

They have your picture, phone number,  they hear you talk, its all recorded.  The building is the UTAH NSA DATA CENTER

 

IT'S IN SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH

 

NSA DATA CENTER - UTAH

 

 

 

UTAH DATA CENTER

 

UTAH DATA CENTER

 

That big building is built in the desert.  They can store all the information about everybody on earth in that.

 

 Here is what its going to be - an emergency,  a crises is going to drive us to totally embracing the Antichrist system.

 

 

SHOREY:  We'll all think its all for good.  And so the Antichrist is going to be -  telling you "c'mon, c'mon, be part of the crowd.  C'mon, you want to be on my team."

 

Well!  I can tell you, I've been involved in the ghetto for a long time and the Antichrist will have 'the food'!

 

I look at 2017 as the year of the Jewish Jubilee.

 

In 1917, the Balfour Declaration declared that Israel would become a nation again. It was like a year of Jubilee beause it was declaring that they were getting their land back which they got in 1917.

 

And then 50 years later, 1967 - Israel won the 6 day war and gained Jerusalem.  It was supposed to be the annihilation and instead, they not only had a great victory, they got back almost all of their land and Jerusalem.

 

israel palestine map

 

Now 50 years later - 2017, I believe that means we will have the battle  Gog & Magog, the third end time war.  Its going to look like this is the end of Israel, but its going to rain fire down from Heaven.

 

REVELATION 9:16 - THE WARRIORS COMETH - ARMEGEDDON

www.greatdreams.com/rev916.htm - 

Jan 10, 2000 ... Ezekiel 38:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 38:2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of ...

 

 

EZEKIEL 38:22  I will exact judgment upon him with plagues and bloodshed, I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones.

 

 

SHOREY:  God is going to display his weapons to seek a degree that the nations will know that there is a God that is looking after Israel.

 

He said in Ezekiel 38:16   against my land, so that the nations may know me when I showed myself Holy through you before their eyes.

 

 

In 2018 - The antichrist continues his war on the saints.  He moves to Jerusalem and takes over the Temple, dictating that he is God.  And he desecrates the Temple.

 

 

J.B.  So,  he's made it so the Jews can literally build in the years before that.

 

NOTE: IF JOHN KERRY GETS A PEACE AGREEMENT SIGNED - ALL BETS ARE OFF.

 

TEMPLE MOUNT

TEMPLE DIAGRAM

"As the navel is set in the centre of the human body,
so is the land of Israel the navel of the world... 
situated in the centre of the world, 
and Jerusalem in the centre of the land of Israel, 
and the sanctuary in the centre of Jerusalem, 
and the holy place in the centre of the sanctuary, 
and the ark in the centre of the holy place, 
and the foundation stone before the holy place, 
because from it the world was founded."
Midrash Tanchuma, Qedoshim.

 

 

 

J.B.  So, he will make peace with he Jews and make it sound like he's  good guy and the Jews build the Temple.

 

.

SHOREY:  The Jews then reinstate the scrifices.

 

 

J.B.  That's another reason the Jews in the United States would leave and go there.  This is what the Jews have lived for -  building the Temple.

 

 

SHOREY:  in 2018, The Temple has already been completed, and the Jews have had their sacrifices daily, and according to Daniel - at this point the Antichrist goes and the sacrifices and declare that he is God and in Matthew 4, you see all this laid out.

 

MATTHEW 24:

 

Matthew 24 King James Version (KJV)

24 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 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.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

24 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.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

King James Version (KJV)

by Public Domain

 

 

DANIEL 9:27 

 

American King James Version
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the middle 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 on the desolate.

 
Gabriel's Prophecy of the Seventy Weeks
…26"Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined.27"And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate."

 

 

SHOREY:  Literally, the Jews recognize that is really not God and they start running for their lives.

 

Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in Heaven and then all the people of the earth will mourn. 

 

They will see a cross in the sky.

 

When they see the Son of Man coming from the clouds of Heaven, with power and glory  (a BIG UFO? - a huge comet?)  then will come the rapture.

 

It flows together.

 

 

J.B.  The war in Matthew 24 gives a play by play of what is going to be.

 

In Daniel 24, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall out of the sky, and the Heavenly bodies will be shaken.

 

We've been talking about the volcano in Yellowstone.  It's shaking right now.  If that thing goes, this will be the biggest boom yet.

 

See: http://www.earthmountainview.com/yellowstone/yellowstone.htm

 

 

I've come to believe in this for years at least, that Jesus - the reason the whole world sees him is that he is the light of the world.

 

If you go to John 8:12   Then Jesus spakes, saying unto them, I am the light of the world. He that followeth me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.

 

Jews in the sun - Jesus is the sun and the Light.

 

Jesus said:  I'm coming in the clouds  what it means, it says - its going to be dark - I believe when he breaks through the clouds - think about any lightbulb - think about a light brighter than the sun.

 

 

MATTHEW 17:2  AND he was transfigured before them, and his face did shine as the sun, and his reimantwas white as the light.

 

and every eye shall see him.

 

 

REVELATION: 1:7  Behold, he cometh with clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him...

 

 

 

SHOREY:  When you read Matthew 24 and read at the same time, Revelation 6 - the opening of the seals coinciding with Matthew 24, when the sun goes dark and the moon does not give its light.

 

In Revelation 6:12 where it says they open the sixth seal and there was a great earthquake and the sun went black as sackcloth of hair and the moon becomes as blood.

 

And then you read in Joel, it says that every mountain is moved from its place - there is a global cataclysm event, you know that mountains are made up of volcanos - so I believe that Yellowstone will be the 6th seal event.

 

NOTE:  IT COULD BE THE POLESHIFT.  http://www.greatdreams.com/poleshift.htm

 

 

You see, blocking out the stars doesn't happen with a lunar eclipse.  There has to be something bigger than that.  When something goes dark and you will see the sign of the coming of the son of man and I believe that will be the brightness of Jesus coming.

 

NOTE:  Could this be Venus exploding?

 

Read Matthew 24 again.

 

Every eye will see it.

 

 

LORI BAKKER:  Truly, we are at the end of time.  And time of the end.

 

 

J.B.  You know, so many people are believing.  Lori and I traveled when we got married.  We traveled and preached. I would ask congregations - every congregation if you watch me - I say this is a lot, but I would say, "Do you believe that Jesus will come as a thief in the night?"

 

I would say that 99% of all congregations would raise their hands that believed that Jesus would come as a thief in the night.

 

 

1 THESSOLONIANS 5: 

 

The Day of the Lord

1Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you,2for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

4But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober. 7For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. 8But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. 9For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

Final Instructions

12Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you. 13Hold them in the highest regard in love because of their work. Live in peace with each other. 14And we urge you, brothers and sisters, warn those who are idle and disruptive, encourage the disheartened, help the weak, be patient with everyone. 15Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always strive to do what is good for each other and for everyone else.

16Rejoice always, 17pray continually, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

19Do not quench the Spirit. 20Do not treat prophecies with contempt 21but test them all; hold on to what is good, 22reject every kind of evil.

23May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.24The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

25Brothers and sisters, pray for us. 26Greet all God’s people with a holy kiss. 27I charge you before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers and sisters.

28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

 

 

SHOREY:   MARK BILTZ says:  What's important - thing is -  We're not setting dates.  I have no idea what year these things are going to take place, but as Pastor Jim says, "The Lord comes as a thief in the night to the dead church - to the lukewarm church, to the evil servants, to the foolish virgins.

 

That's what it says when you go to see when you look at  these verses in context.

 

 

 

J.B. Go to REVELATION - Teach that!   Go to REVELATION 3.  I have taught that for decades and this is the first time I saw this -  It's been there all the time, but you brethren are not in darkness.

 

Maybe the church is confessing truth then.

 

 

KEVIN SHOREY:  Its a self fulfilling prophecy.

 

 

J.B. 

 

SEE 1ST THESSALONIANS 5 AGAIN.

 

How many of you believe that you have to read a verse in context?

 

Sometimes context doesn't mean just a few verses around it. It doesn't mean the whole chapter.  It doesn't mean even the whole book.  It means - its the whole Bible.

 

He comes as a thief in the night - again when he says ' comes as a thief in the night - who is he talking to?

 

Listen to REVELATION 3:  He says:  "To the angel in the church of Sardis:  write this:  Then he says:  He who has the seven stars, "I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.  So he is speaking to the 'dead' church.

 

 

To the Church in Sardis

1“To the angela of the church in Sardis write:

These are the words of him who holds the seven spiritsb of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead.2Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God. 3Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.

4Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. 5The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels. 6Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

To the Church in Philadelphia

7“To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write:

These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. 8I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. 9I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars—I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you. 10Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.

11I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown. 12The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name. 13Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

To the Church in Laodicea

14“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write:

These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. 15I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! 16So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. 17You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. 18I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.

19Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. 20Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.

21To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

Footnotes:
 a 1 Or messenger; also in verses 7 and 14
 b 1 That is, the sevenfold Spirit

 

 

J.B.  We keep listening to the wrong voice in the wrong way.  He says to the 'dead' church, you'd better be watchful.

 

 

REVELATION 3:  Remember therefore how you have received and hold fast and repent.  Therefore if you will not watch... I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I come upon you.

 

So, it is to the dead church that he comes as a thief in the night.

 

Isn't that powerful though?  I never realized that was in Revelation because I had been preaching Thessalonians alll the time.

 

1 THESSALONIANS:  Now brothers and sisters, we do not need to write to you about times and dates.  You know very well that the day the Lord comes again will be a surprise, like a thief that comes in the night, while people are saying, "We have peace and we are safe, so they will be destroyed quickly.  It is like the pains that come quickly to a woman having a baby.  Those people will not excape.  But, you brothers and sisters, are not living in darkness and so that day will not surprise you like a thief.
