5. Worship of the ‘image’

Worship image 5.pdf

The trace in Scripture that leads to the worship of the ‘image’ of the beast:
HCSB (Revelation 13:14-15) 14 … telling those who live on the earth to make an image of the beast who had the sword wound yet lived. 15 ….so that the image of the beast could both speak and cause whoever would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

In the previous article we talked about the great Babylon, a real city, and that NEOM is situated exactly on the old Midian, with Mount Sinai. What the objectives of NEOM are and which people already have been attracted and approached.

According to Peter Phillips (professor of Sociology, Ph.D., University of California), the result of influential think tanks, NGO’s and organizations is, that they translate the agenda of the richest 1% into policy, which is then implemented by governments.
In his view, we must think of powerful fund managers like BlackRock and the Vanguard Group, which you will encounter as a shareholder in almost all large companies and the military industrial complex.

In fact, in this way the US has become a plutocracy, a form of government in which the richest are in power and can determine the legislation for large groups within society.
NEOM also has very large investments and there are many large parties that want to invest in there.
NEOM, the great Babylon, will be fully in the media’s attention in the coming period.

NKJV (Jeremiah 51: 12, 13) 12 Set up the standard on the walls of Babylon; Make the guard strong, Set up the watchmen, Prepare the ambushes. For the Lord has both devised and done What He spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon. 13 O you who dwell by many waters, Abundant in treasures, Your end has come, The measure of your covetousness.

The inhabitants of ancient Babylon, according to Jeremiah, were rich in treasures and had a great deal of covetousness.
In the new great Babylon, the multi-billionaires are also rich in treasures and capital and they also have a great deal of covetousness.

The theme of this writing is the characteristics of the false prophet regarding NEOM, about Jesus’ statements about these and about the further biblical prophecies that relate to these.

3. Youth; Disappointments and how to deal with

Youth3.pdf

An explanation of topics for a dialogue with young people; topics where young people have to deal with in their lives, with support of Scripture.

In the previous part, in part 2, we spoke extensively about the value of money and how young people can deal with this. In that part it emerged, that love for capital or money apparently has become very obvious for many young people.
The Scripture says about people who desire wealth, that those people are pitiable, that such persons lack love for God (YHWH) and for his neighbors:

NKJV (Revelation 3:17) 17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’–and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked–

In this part, the preparation for disappointment for young people will be treated, because disciples of Jesus, just like Jesus himself, will get disappointed.
Jesus was regularly disappointed in His days, by the traitor Judas Iscariot, by the Jewish priests, by the traders in the temple:

NKJV (Matthew 21: 12-13) 12 Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. 13 And He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’ “

The theme of this writing is dealing with disappointment as part of the development of Christian youth.

11. Recovery of the Paradise

11. Recovery of the Paradise.pdf

The recovery of the Paradise and in the implementation hereof;
Jesus, Lord of the Sabbath

In the previous newsletter we described the Great War at Har-Magedon, God’s final war.
Herein we have discussed extensively the concerning end-time prophecies by Daniel and seen that in the end times the 8th world power of central banks will exalt itself above all (Daniel 11: 37-39), it will honor the false prophet – the god of fortresses – who wants to be worshiped as God, and will cooperate with a strange or foreign god based on false reasoning, the Mesopotamian god Allah.

In this newsletter we will talk about the recovery of the – at that time – lost paradise after the serious violation of Adam and Eve, who had eaten from the forbidden tree.
God didn’t abandon the first humans to their fate and has never unleashed the plan of a human family on a paradise earth.

10. The great war at Har–Mágedon

10. The great war at Har–Mágedon.pdf

The great war at Har–Mágedon; God’s final war

In the last newsletter we discussed the visions of Ezekiel on the New Jerusalem; to live in freedom and carefree on the New Earth.

In that vision was evidenced that Gog and Magog will be fulfilled on the new earth, and not in the last days of the ‘old’ heaven and earth.
This turned out i.a. from Ezekiel 38:11, which describes that the houses will be without latch and gates.
Also, the scripture from Zechariah below describes the New Jerusalem on the new earth:

KJV (Zechariah 14: 4) 4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

That this text part is also about the New Earth can be derived by the living water that flows from the throne in the New Jerusalem in verse 8:

KJV (Zechariah 14: 8) 8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be.
(See also Ezekiel 47: 1-5 and Revelation 22: 1-2)

7. No part of this world

7. No part of this world.pdf

Christians are no part of this world;
                   be alert to the sign of Jesus’ coming

Jesus pronounces in John. 17 an intense prayer towards his heavenly Father concerning his disciples:

KJV (John 17: 14-17) 14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

What do these words mean in John 17, to be ‘no part of the world’?
This will be the theme of this newsletter, because it is at the end times namely of utmost importance to interpret these words of Jesus and the corresponding protection correctly, our life depends directly from this.
