THE CURTAIN IS CLOSE TO CLOSING ON THE CHURCH AGE

Iniquity Shall Abound

The world openly calls good evil and evil good. We now live in a time where evil is celebrated and promoted while godliness, holiness, and goodness are treated with contempt (Isaiah 5:20). In times past, it seemed people preferred to do evil, but it was often under cover of darkness. They weren’t so brazen and open about their sin: today, it’s championed and praised.

Pennsylvania: Police chief killed; another officer wounded. Police chief Justin McIntire was killed in a chase on foot that occurred after a traffic stop; the surviving officer is in stable condition. Aaron Lamont Swan Jr., who was later killed in an exchange of gunfire with police, had an extensive, violent criminal record. Many in law enforcement and the community feel Swan should’ve never been out on the streets to begin with.

Celebrity-Backed Bail group helped free serial criminal who then shot a waiter 11 times during a robbery shortly after his release. There are a number of cases (see Criticism and Consequences section at this link) in which The Bail Project helped release someone who shortly thereafter committed murder. The project has announced closure of its Las Vegas chapter due to “restructuring.”

Portland Man’s Face Partially Chewed Off by Assailant where crime is soaring under Democrat leadership. The assailant allegedly used fentanyl and marijuana before the attack.

A first-grade teacher was shot by a 6-year-old student in the classroom at a Newport News elementary school. The teacher suffered life-threatening injuries. The boy, who intentionally shot the teacher, was taken into police custody.

Apostasy; Doctrines of Demons

Former Church of Scientology members trafficking suit against leader David Miscavige. Process servers have tried to serve papers to Miscavige 27 times over the past few months; he’s in hiding. Former members say they were forced into labor as children and forced to sign a one-billion-year contract. Valeska Paris said she was sexually assaulted repeatedly in her youth.

Globalist Goblins Worshiping Creation Rather Than the Creator

“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools… who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.”

‘Climate idealism meets reality’: green energy failed to meet power demand when most needed during Christmas Eve snowstorms that pummeled northeastern U.S. and Texas.

Just when you thought things couldn’t get more insane: New York Times guest essay advocates mating with short people to save the planet. Author Mara Altman penned the essay, claiming that shorter people tend to live longer and are crucial in conserving food and resources. Altman also said short people “may also be best suited for long-term survival, and not just because more of us will be able to jam into spaceships when we are forced off this planet we wrecked.” The NYT previously profiled an advocate for ‘voluntary human extinction’ to combat climate change.

Biden Administration Backs Risky Geoengineering Plan to Block the Sun.

60 Minutes airs apocalyptic predictions to ring in the New Year with Paul Ehrlich, who has long (and erroneously) predicted disaster due to high population. Ehrlich, a Stanford University professor, said the human population is crowding out the natural environment. He’s recommended taxing children, mass sterilization, abortions, and “whatever steps are necessary.” He predicted hundreds of millions would starve to death in the 1970s, England wouldn’t exist by 2000, and “an utter breakdown of the capacity of the planet to support humanity” would occur by the 1980s.

False Religion/Ideology of Islam and its Terrorism

‘Radicalized’ Times Square Attacker. 19-year-old Trevor Bickford injured three NYPD officers with a machete in an unprovoked attack. He was on the FBI’ watchlist’ after being radicalized.

Pentagon warns of ‘next generation’ of extremist fighters as terror group ISIS plots 2023 comeback.

Hatred of Christianity

A series of attacks by Muslims on Christians and Christian sites in Bethlehem has many faith leaders concerned. The persecution threatens the existence of the oldest Christian community in the world.

Hatred of Jews and Israel

Ridiculous Ramblings Over Ben Givr’s Peaceful Visit to the Temple Mount. Biden Administration and other world leaders condemn Israeli minister visiting Temple Mount. At the behest of the UAE and China, the UN Security Council met Thursday regarding Ben Gvir’s visit to the Temple Mount. Despite his many visits to the temple mount as an MK, this was his first as a top minister in Netanyahu’s new government. Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan said, “Why hold an emergency session for something as simple as a Jew walking to the holiest site in Judaism? He added, “This is pure antisemitism.” Jordan denounced Ben Givr for what it termed storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and violation of its sanctity. Saudi Arabia called the visit a provocative action. Egypt warned against negative repercussions on security and stability in what it called occupied territories and the region, and on the future of the so-called peace process.

Report: 97% of antisemitic attacks in New York City are carried out by ethnic minorities.

Israel Has Seen over 2,100 Terror Attacks Between January and October 2022.

Last Days of Lot Returned…

Scotland: Pedophiles labeled “Minor-Attracted People” in top-level police report. Police Scotland suggests the EU was to blame. This comes amid concerns over attempts to rebrand pedophilia as a harmless sexual preference.

Court says Jewish (Yeshiva) University must recognize [Gay] Pride Alliance club. It says Yeshiva University doesn’t qualify for religious exemption.

A Watershed Moment in the Moral State of Our Rapidly Depraving and Godless Culture. A few weeks ago, Congress passed legislation that codified same-sex marriage as the law of the land, certifying the 2015 Supreme Court ruling that had already sanctioned same-sex marriages. To satisfy the incessant, sinful cries of the incredibly powerful LGBTQ lobby, Congress endorsed an immoral and degenerate lifestyle. The deceptively and deceitfully named Respect for Marriage Act is anything.

…And the Abortion Abomination

Abortion is leading cause of death worldwide for fourth year in a row.

Satanic Temple Sues to Stop Abortion Bans, Claims Killing Babies is a Religious Right. This week, The Guardian published a flattering piece about the satanic group and its efforts to overturn pro-life laws in Idaho, Indiana, Missouri and Texas.

Walgreens, CVS Will Sell Abortion Pill That Has Killed Millions of Babies. FYI: Changing the subject…. We consistently find that drugs – particularly generic drugs – are far more expensive at CVS and Walgreens than at other pharmacies. The costs at Walmart, Costco, Winn-Dixie, and Publix are consistently far lower, as are the costs of most independent pharmacies. The cost of generic drugs, on average, is about 50% higher at CVS and Walgreens than at the lower-cost pharmacies!

Last Days Traitors

Home Depot co-founder rails against socialism and “woke people” (rightfully so), and warns ‘Capitalism is in dire straits.’ Bernie Marcus said their attitude is just give me money; I don’t want to work. Also, co-founder of Whole Foods, John Mackey, has warned “socialists are taking over” and ‘Capitalism cannot be replaced with disastrous socialism.’

Soros Doubles Funding to Left-Wing Legal Group Working to Pack the Supreme Court, signaling progressives’ determination to reshape the judiciary even after a string of defeats.

What To Expect from The Government In 2023? It looks like we’re going to be in for more of the same in terms of the government’s brand of madness, mayhem, corruption, and brutality.

And the Deliberate Border Disorder

ICE: ‘no records’ for hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants released with electronic monitors.

Orwellian Society

A Georgia man arrested after facial recognition technology mistakenly linked him to theft of luxurious purses in a state he’d not been to.

Plague, Pestilence…

Drug Plague: DEA seized 4.7 million lethal doses of fentanyl in 5-state region in 2022.

…And the Planned-demic

Viral video of WHO chief Tedros saying some countries are using Covid boosters to kill children. So-called fact checkers claim it was a “slip of the tongue.” Regardless, it’s clear since April 2020 that children rarely, if ever, suffer severe complications from COVID. Yet, Big Pharma and Fauci pushed experimental vaccines on healthy children. Today, thousands of kids suffer severe heart problems after receiving the vaccine.

US Health Care Workers Still Facing Jab-or-Job Ultimatums. As the critical shortage of nurses in the US continues to climb, hospitals are still firing Registered Nurses for refusing COVID vaccines, even in Florida, which passed legislation against the ultimatums. The drive to force the COVID vaccine on healthcare workers continues even in spite of court rulings with sizable settlement debts against hospitals that denied religious exemptions from the COVID shot mandate. Also, nursing students are prevented from completing their degrees because colleges are partnering with hospitals that require them to be COVID vaccinated without exceptions, including religious exemptions, in order to complete their clinicals— the final step to becoming a registered nurse.

Weather Events

Parade of storms will pound California through this next week following deadly bomb cyclone that has killed at least two.

Earthquakes and Volcanoes

Strong 5.4 aftershock wakes up northern Californians New Year’s Day near where a 6.4 struck Dec. 20.

Hawaii: Eruption resumes at Kilauea volcano, Aviation Color Code raised to Red.

Wars And Rumors of Wars

Kim Jong Un calls for ‘exponential increase’ of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal.

Russia’s Defense Minister said Russia’s victory in Ukraine is inevitable.

Putin Sends Warship Armed with Hypersonic Missiles to Atlantic & Indian Oceans.

Iran is building two carriers – sea platforms for launching armed drones and fighter helicopters.

Meeting between Turkey, Russia, and Syria slated for January. Russia is trying to bridge the divide between its two allies, united by their so-called common “enemy” – Kurdish forces in northern Syria.

Syrian media on Sunday night reported an air strike attributed to Israel near Damascus. Also, two weeks ago, Syrian TV reported an Israeli air strike in the Damascus area.

Macron Sends ‘First Western Tanks’ to Ukraine, Followed by U.S. and Germany. In a potentially escalatory move, French President Emmanuel Macron became the first Western leader to supply Ukraine with tanks following talks with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Macron: A Man on the Move with Global Ambitions

Speaking of Emmanuel Macron, the first French president to win reelection in 20 years seems incapable of experiencing fatigue; he’s made 30 international visits since his reelection in April, has more already scheduled, and is known for taking every photo op he can. Macron is building a 44-nation “European Political Community” and has taken every opportunity to present himself as Europe’s foremost leader and a hyperactive player on the world stage.

Global government is being pushed openly in these last of the last days. Those of us in Christ won’t be here to see who heads it up, but we watchmen and watchwomen on the wall should warn those who seem determined to be left behind about leaders who appear to be vying for that position.

Conclusion

“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2 Thessalonians 2:7-12).

Meanwhile, we await Christ Jesus, our Blessed Hope, who will call us up to escape the wrath that God will pour out during the Tribulation.

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18). Also, see 1 Corinthians 15:51-52.

“For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thessalonians 5:9).

Donation Drive Jan to March

The year 2022 is now in the history books. I am truly grateful to everyone who has contributed to the site in any way. I’m very certain that with your help, we can achieve even more for the cause of Christ in 2023.

For over 36 years, Rapture Ready has been an online resource for end-times information. I started the site sometime in September of 1987 while I was an airman stationed at Offutt Air Force Base. My computer was an Apple II clone made by the Franklin Computer Co. It featured all green text, and there was no mouse. Some of you old-timers might remember the look of a screenshot I saved from 1989.

Even though Rapture Ready is the largest prophecy site on the net, we still have a nearly endless amount of space for more content. Right now, the site is about 1 gigabyte in size. The total space available is 20,000 gigabytes. The only limitation is our ability to format and upload new articles to the site.

I follow a group of people that are commonly called true money advocates (TMA). They believe precious metals are the main way to preserve your wealth against inflation. The vast majority of them have predicted that a major recession will occur this year. Their forecast is based on economic history. Every time the Federal Reserve raises interest rates by a certain amount, we always have a financial meltdown. Since the Fed has raised rates at the fastest pace ever, it should be all the more likely that a recession will come our way.

The TMA advocates may find 2023 to be yet another year of frustration. They have all been collectively predicting that the dollar, the Stock market, and the bond market are all going into the toilet like they did during the 2007-2008 Great Recession. I firmly believe the rapture is why their forecasts have been off. If we have a deep recession, the US economy will implode, leading to a downturn that could last a decade. Because the rapture is predicted to occur at a time of tranquility, no major economic crisis will likely proceed the blessed hope.

Rapture Ready still ranks as the largest and most visited prophecy site on the internet. We have held this status for several years. We now have a network of more than 30 servers. Whenever prophecy becomes active in the news, people flock to RR for answers. Of course, when the ‘Big Event’ takes place, tens of millions of people will stream to the site.

Although we have a very broad audience, we have a very narrow support base. Because the site is so large, with over 20,000 pages, most people who visit RR will never read this Nearing Midnight page.

In order to accomplish all these tasks, the site needs your financial support. I call on every Bible-believing Christian to help us maintain this beacon of hope. As the world literally disintegrates around us, I ask: What other endeavor could possibly be of greater importance?

In my last Donation drive, I addressed the upcoming mid-term election. The election has become one of the worst disasters in American history. The Republicans had people on the ballot that had zero political experience. If Satan had been up for the vote, he may have won. Things went so bad on election day, I realized America will never be reformed via the voting booth.

The most important decision a person can make is to find salvation in Jesus Christ. Once a person becomes a believer, it should be our top priority to become involved in the propagation of the gospel. I firmly believe that joining with those who financially support Rapture Ready is one of the best investments you can make.

There are three ways you can contribute to RR: You can send a financial gift via our P.O. Box address, you can make a one-time donation, or there is a frequent option that allows you to make monthly donations. If you’re interested in signing up, find the input links on the Donation Depot page. Donations can be sent to our P.O. Box at:

The Real Planet Polluters

Climate change—formerly global warming—is almost certainly the nucleus around which the Revelation chapter 17 harlot religious system is being formed. Mother Earth worship seems to be the system the globalist would-be world rulers want us to embrace as quickly as possible.

There is an almost visceral sense of many among the pre-Trib camp that the system is satanic, involving not only fear-mongering about climate change but also the panicked pronouncement of an unstoppable pandemic. All this is combined with the lie that there are too many people populating the victim of all this—planet Earth.

The sacrifice that must be made upon the altar erected by the unspecified powers that be is the elimination of all but 500 million human beings. This sacrifice has at its heart the offering, through abortion, of many millions of children in their mothers’ wombs, and even some outside the womb.

Those powers command that we must bring the ratio of humans to nature into sustainable configuration—a demand long championed by Prince Charles, who is now King Charles III. He is totally sold out to the developing New World Order being orchestrated by Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum (WEF) and other nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).

For years, observers of the efforts to bring about the one-world utopia have insisted that these minions in high places (like given in Ephesians 6:12) are deliberately trying to change weather and climate. These observers charge that those who intend to establish a New World Order want to alter the ecosystem in ways that will help depopulate Mother Earth.

The Klaus Schwab types proclaim that too many people on earth mean they are polluting the planet. There are too many eaters, and thus soon, there will be more starvation than ever, along with malnutrition and every sort of pestilence—like the recent pandemic has wrought.

One has to question the veracity of their reasoning. It seems that if they just let things take the natural course, as discomforting as it might be, the result of starvation, disease, etc., would bring their desired depopulation. An interesting quandary, but one apparently not long dwelt upon by reprobate minds, it seems.

The observations by the likes of us pre-Tribbers regarding charging the powers that be with taking depopulation into their own hands now have apparently been born out, at least to some extent. The accusation that we are conspiracy nuts or tin-hat sorts has proven otherwise. The following item is interesting in that regard.

To keep natural sunlight from reaching planet Earth and supporting life, a geoengineering startup company called Make Sunsets has begun deploying massive weather balloons to blast the stratosphere with reflective sulfur particles, all for the claimed purpose of “fighting climate change.”

A phenomenon also known as chemtrails, these sulfur blasts stop the sun’s ultraviolet rays from reaching the atmosphere and ultimately earth’s surface. The result is a dimmed sun that no longer functions as designed to sustain life on earth. (Related: It was known in 2018 that climate fanatics were pushing a “global dimming” agenda to block out the sun and “save the planet.”)

Much like how natural volcanic eruptions flood the skies with pollutants that darken daylight for days or even weeks at a time, chemtrail blasts like the ones occurring at Make Sunsets mimic this sun-blocking effects to fight “global warming.”

Numerous test launches have already taken place at sites across Mexico with no public input or scientific debate. The goal, according to the company’s head, is to eventually commercialize the technology for widespread use.

“We joke slash not joke that this is partly a company and partly a cult,” said Luke Iseman, the co-founder and CEO of Make Sunsets. “It’s morally wrong, in my opinion, for us not to be doing this … (and we need) to do this as quickly and safely as we can.” (“After Decades of Denial, Corporate Media Admits Chemtrail Terraforming Is Happening Right Now to “fight climate change,” Ethan Huff, Natural News, 12/28/22, Rapture Ready News, 12/30/22)

So we eaters have for decades been accused by the global warmist/climate-change gurus of polluting Mother Earth with our deadly carbon footprints. But the admission that there are private industries, aided and even funded by governmental entities, actually and deliberately spreading the earth’s skies with destructive chemtrails or whatsoever, makes it clear who the real polluters are.

The powers that be–Lucifer’s minions, both human and demonic—may think to change the time, seasons, and ecology of earth. But our God says otherwise. The Lord tells truth about who controls His creation. He does so through His everlasting promise to Israel.

“This is what the Lord says, ‘He who appoints the sun to shine by day, Who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the Lord Almighty is His Name; Only if these ordinances vanish from My sight,’ declares the Lord, ‘will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before Me.'” (Jeremiah 31:35–36)
