The Alpha and the Omega :: By Rick Segoine

Published on: by RR10 Category:General Articles

Jesus spoke the first Word, and He will have the last Word in regard to the destiny of His creation and all that is in His creation.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it” (John 1:1).

The creation itself, in part or in full, is not greater than nor stronger than He who did the creating.

There is no created being, angelic or human or creature of any kind, that is greater than or stronger than He who created all living beings.

The supernatural power and strength of the Living God are far beyond the comprehension of mortals and angels alike.

He is the Alpha and the Omega (Revelation 1:8).

He declares the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10) and everything between the end and the beginning.

He foresaw it all, even before the foundation of the world was set and spoken by Him into existence.

He even knew all about the life of every person ever born, and He knew before they even became a seed planted in their mother’s womb, and His hand was there to form each of us in the womb (Psalm 139:16).

God knew that Adam and Eve would disobey Him in the Garden of Eden and that it would cause the fall of humankind into sin.

Because of this, the Lamb of God was declared before the foundation of the world (1 Peter 1:19-20).

God is omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent (1 John 3:20; Jeremiah 23:24; 1 Kings 8:27; Psalm 90:2; Job 42:2; Luke 1:37). God is the Alpha and the Omega.

“The Word became flesh” (John 1:14).

The Father knew that He would need to send His Son, the second person in the Holy Trinity, on a rescue mission of mercy to be the sacrificial lamb, who, being without sin, could and would take all of the sins of man and womankind upon Himself in order to provide redemption for all who had sinned, which was everyone (Romans 3:9-26).

Everyone, that is, except God’s only begotten Son Jesus. Jesus being the only one who ever lived inside a human body that never sinned. The only one qualified to even be the sacrificial lamb (Hebrews 4:15).

Jesus accomplished this sacrifice on the cross at Calvary.

The main thing required of each fallen sinner was and still is belief.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever “believes” in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16, Emphasis mine).

Belief leads to faith, and faith leads to trust. Complete 100% belief, faith, and trust.

Unwavering and absolute faith that Jesus is who He Himself says He is, as well as who His Father says He is and who the Holy Spirit and all of His Disciples, Apostles, and the Prophets say He is.

And just who is it that He and they say He is?

“I am the way and the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).

“This is beloved my son in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17).

“You are the Christ, the son of the Living God.” (Matthew 16:16)

“There is no other name under heaven by which one can be saved” (Acts 4:12).

“All who call on the name of Jesus shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).

“By His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).

To believe in Jesus is to be saved. Salvation freely belongs to all who believe.

Ephesians 2:8-9 reveals that Salvation and Eternal Life are the gift of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. If God says that “belief” is our boarding pass to the heaven-bound train, then it is true because God is Holy, and He cannot and does not lie. Not once, not ever.

The saved thief on the cross next to Jesus, who had no time to do anything other than believe, is an eternal witness to believing being the key to salvation (Luke 23:43).

Belief in Him who declares the end from the beginning.

Belief in Him who is the Alpha and the Omega.

Belief in the great “I Am” who is Eternal God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Exodus 3 1:22; John 8:48-59).

Belief in Him who loves you so much that He was willing to lay down His life for you. Willing to die in place of you.

Belief in Him who rose from death and conquered it so that you may live, and so I may live, and so all who believe on the name of Jesus may not only live but live forever and in resurrected bodies similar to His. Bodies that do not get sick. Bodies that will never grow old and wear out and die. Bodies that will not be tempted by sin, corruption, or wickedness of any kind at all (1Corrinthians 15:57).

He who is the Alpha and the Omega foresaw all that has happened, all that is happening now, and all that has yet to happen. Everything that is happening right now at this very moment in time. Everything happening all over this entire planet as we travel along the prophetic timeline, He foresaw.

He has revealed through Holy scripture His plan for the future for all who believe in and trust in Him.

He has also revealed His plan for those who reject Him and hate Him. The ones that call evil good and good evil (Isaiah 5:20).

He has not kept these things a secret.

Whosoever reads the Word of God (the Holy Bible) from beginning to end will discover how creation began and how the phenomenon of “time” became a temporary yet vital part of God’s plan.

Whosoever reads the Word of God from beginning to end will also discover God’s plan of how creation as we know it will play out and how “time” will eventually merge back into the timeless state that preceded creation as we know it.

To us, history dating back to the Garden seems like a very long time, but to Eternal God, it is only about six days that have passed.

As David in Psalm 90:4, and then many centuries later, Peter, in 2 Peter 3:8, pointed out, with God, a thousand years is as a day. Hence, we can refer to all of the Word of God, alluding to the seven millenniums as “God’s Week of Creation.”

That would include everything that has happened as well as everything that has yet to happen.

From the perspective of Eternal God our Creator, we are at the tail end of the sixth day of creation and right on the edge of entering into the seventh and final day of His creation as we know it. And the convergence of the signs given by Jesus in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21, in conjecture with many other prophecies from both the Old and New Testaments, confirms this.

Woven into the biblical account of history is also His “prophetic timeline.” The prophetic timeline began right from the start of human history in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:15).

Only the catching away of God’s remnant church of true believers in the Rapture, and the Seven-year Tribulation when the wrath of God is poured out on an unrepentant world filled with wickedness, stand between the sixth and the seventh day of “God’s Week of Creation.”

Through His chosen prophets, He who declares the End from the Beginning has actively used the prophetic timeline to forecast events that would occur in the near, the mid-range, and the distant future. This includes things that will occur in the last day of God’s Week of Creation, also known as the “Millennium.”

Things such as 1,000 years with no wars because, as Isaiah 2:4 says regarding the second advent of Jesus, “They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war.”

Things such as Revelation 20:1-3 where John describes “an angel coming down from heaven at the end of the tribulation and at the beginning of the millennium, with a key to the hole without a bottom. He also had a strong chain. He took hold of the dragon, that old snake, who is the devil, or Satan, and chained him for 1,000 years. The angel threw the devil into the hole without a bottom. He shut it and locked the devil in it. Satan could not fool the nations anymore until the 1,000 years were completed. After this, he must be free for a while.”

At the end of the 1,000 years, the last millennium, also known as the last day of God’s Week of Creation, Revelation 20:7-10 explains that Satan will be released for a short time so he can gather together those who still inhabit mortal bodies and are willing to follow him in one last rebellion against the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

This one final rebellion does not work out well for Satan and those foolish enough to follow him at that time. Satan marches his army, which is made up of the last of the last useful idiots, to Jerusalem. The goal of Satan and his foolish army is to take down Jesus, the King of Kings, and His followers who dwell in Jerusalem with Jesus.

Jesus reveals to John in Revelation 20:7-10 that when Satan and his ill-fated followers arrive in the Holy City of Jerusalem with high expectations of defeating the Holy One of Israel once and for all, their delusional efforts come to naught when fire comes down from heaven and devours them all.

And then, “the devil who deceived them was thrown into the fire of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet [at the Second Coming of Jesus] had been thrown to be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

Vengeance belongs to God Almighty, and scripture reveals that being tossed into the lake of fire is the beginning of the punishment that God has selected to fit the crimes of Satan, the Beast, and the False Prophet.

Next, but not quite last, near the very end of the prophetic timeline, is the great “White Throne Judgment.”

Revelation 20:11-14 gives a detailed account of the White Throne Judgment where the unsaved, unrepentant unbelievers are held accountable and sent to their eternal and final destiny. Please read Revelation 20:11-14 for the full, detailed account.

Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death—the lake of fire.

If anyone’s name was not found written in the Book of Life, that person was thrown into the lake of fire.

That would be all who lived prior to Jesus first advent who had embraced and lived a life of evil, and all of those who took the “mark of the beast” during the Seven-Year Tribulation, as well as all of those who chose to reject Jesus and the payment He made for their sins, and instead follow Satan the father of lies, who had cruelly tricked and fooled them into living some kind of life of wickedness. Varying degrees of wickedness perhaps, but wickedness nevertheless.

Jesus gave the Apostle Paul these words of warning in Romans 2:5-6, 8-9, and 16 to those foolish enough to follow Satan.

“But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourselves in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed! He will reward each one according to his works: …Wrath and anger to those who live in selfish ambition and do not obey the truth but follow unrighteousness.

“There will be affliction and distress on everyone who does evil, on the Jew first and also on the Greek. …on the day when God will judge the secrets of human hearts, according to my gospel through Christ Jesus.” (Please read all of Romans chapter 2 for a very detailed explanation of God judging the secrets of human hearts.)

This warning that Jesus imparted to Paul for him to write down in Romans 2 is still relevant as of today, and the message is precise and very clear.

Repent of all unrighteousness and inequity and turn to Jesus.

Turn to Him, believe in Him, trust in Him, and follow Him. Receive the gift of salvation and eternal life. Allow Him to guide you to an eternal existence of joy and wonder. Allow Him to begin a good work in you and behold how faithful He will be to complete it (Philippians 1:6).

“What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived—the things God has prepared for those who love Him” (1 Corinthians 2:9).

If you have read this article and have not yet committed your life to believing in and following Jesus, please listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying to you right now at this very moment.

Reject Satan once and for all time, along with all of his cruel and evil ways.

Instead, love and embrace God the Father who sent His only begotten Son to take your punishment upon Himself and to die in your place on a cross because that is how much He loves you.

The prophetic timeline lastly reveals what will happen at the conclusion of the “last day of creation.”

In Revelation 21:1, Jesus reveals this amazing event to John. John said,” Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away.” This new heaven and earth are described with quite some detail in Revelation 21:1-27.

The new heaven and new earth will be new and different yet similar in perfection to how it was in the Garden of Eden before the fall.

This time, though, there will be no evil fallen angel to ruin everything with lies and temptations. The new heaven and the new earth will be infinitely and eternally separated from the lake of fire. There will be a total and complete separation of good from evil forever.

He is the Alpha and the Omega; He is who declares the End from the Beginning; He is the Great I Am; He is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and He has declared these things to be so and revealed all things as they shall be.

“Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.”

The Luciferian Candidate :: By Stephen Meehan

Published on: by RR10 Category:General Articles, Stephen Meehan

After recently watching a remake of the Hollywood film The Manchurian Candidate, I couldn’t help but notice some similarities between the plot of the movie and recent events that have been transpiring around the globe in the lead-up to the Tribulation period.

In the film, a sinister corporation – Manchurian Global – schemes how to get their chosen man into the White House to further their worldwide ambitions for global supremacy.

In the present prologue, before the final seven years of human government and world judgments take center stage, it is obvious that Satan is working tirelessly behind the curtain to manipulate his agents and operations into position to be instantly ready for action once the Church is gone and his plot can unfold for his world dominancy.

The premise of the movie is to have the globalist corporation working with the military and geneticists to enable two unknowing army personnel to be chipped and implanted with devices that allow the conglomerate to control these men to carry out their devious deeds. The men are unaware that they have been programmed to act at a moment’s notice and only go into action after a mysterious phone call triggers their robotic response.

In like manner, Satan uses and controls a select few who have been given over to a reprobate mind and who are in positions of power and influence so that the enemy can coerce them into furthering his agenda. They have been ‘chipped and implanted’ to carry out his desires. They make themselves candidates for spiritual wickedness by pushing God out of their lives and promoting devilish doctrines. Do they do it knowingly?

“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient” (Romans 1:28).

A key aspect of the film is the way in which one of the army soldiers is groomed to become a leading political figure to assume control of the White House. The route he takes to get there is eerily similar to what has been playing out in the run-up to the American national election. Life can imitate art, but the devil wastes no opportunity to achieve his goals.

The soldier has no previous political experience, other than his father once being a former senator. His mother – a definite HRC type, America’s own Jezebel – is also deeply entrenched in politics and is the one heavily pushing – along with Manchurian Global – to get her son into the White House. The path he takes is like the present-day Democratic Party playbook.

Although lacking any prior political expertise, he is nonetheless chosen to replace the current Vice-Presidential running mate to position him in place to maneuver into the top spot on the ticket once the election has been won and the newly elected President has been “dealt” with. But that kind of scenario could never play out in real life, could it?

When the two win the national election, it is time for the globalist cartel to remove the president and then install their VP as the one running the country. To do this, the president must be assassinated. They attempt to do this by using another implanted soldier to fire a high-powered rifle to kill the more competent president. Does that sound familiar?

Recent events have followed a similar plot line. Two attempts have already failed in trying to destroy a former president now seeking re-election. Will the Satanic globalist entity make another attempt to clear the stage for the rise of their weak, incapable candidate?

We read in Scripture that before the antichrist assumes power and takes control of the world’s affairs, 10 kings shall arise and will rule for a very short time before they cede their nation’s sovereignty over to the Beast.

“And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but will receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.” (Revelation 17:12-13).

For that to occur, Lucifer must have his candidates positioned in key nations around the globe and has begun the process of weakening those countries from within so that they will not be an impediment to the antichrist’s agenda once he is revealed.

It is obvious that this is what has been occurring globally. Get rid of the strong nationalist leaders and instead put in the devil’s puppets. Luciferian candidates, front and center, please!

America has been bushwhacked and weakened under Obama, Biden, and Harris. These three stooges of the Satanic Global cabal have completely sold themselves out and have been ‘chipped and implanted’ to fulfill their master’s program. Everything that they have accomplished during their time in power has been ungodly, unchristian, and un-American.

Apology tours; lighting up the White House in the homosexual “pride” rainbow colors; completely sold out to the promotion and funding of the abortion infanticide; sending billions of dollars to Iran to allow them to go nuclear; opening up our borders to allow in those who hate America; stabbing Israel in the back; weakening our military by the WOKE nonsense; promote the “transgender” mutilation of boys and girls and disregard the protests of non-consenting parents; the failed Afghanistan pull out, leaving behind billions of dollars’ worth of military hardware for the Taliban to use; attempts to defund the police; and a myriad of other insane policies that have only one goal – to destroy the United States of America from within and carry out their master’s directives.

Where else are we seeing signs of the once great nations of the world capitulating to the Luciferian apparatus? It is not a stretch to include the following nations that are already in the process of ceding their sovereignty to the soon-coming antichrist: Canada, Australia, Great Britain, and most of Europe. Who can deny that these countries are falling/failing?

The globalists, including the pope, are strongly encouraging and demanding that most countries open their borders to allow an influx of Muslim immigrants. This kind of activity can only have one outcome and desire by those pushing for it: to weaken the host nations, cause internal strife, and create enough chaos to ripen the conditions needed for the Beast to set up his operations. This is treachery and treason of the highest order. It is satanic.

Luciferian candidates must be established in each of the key nations of the world to grease the wheels of the devilish steamroller, flattening away every obstacle in its path for Satan to assume control and carry out his globalist conquest. Nothing will be allowed to stop it.

One such candidate is being propelled forward presently in America. She is too incompetent to even be allowed to give press conferences. She has no political expertise.  She is weaker than her former boss. The media is covering for her. In debates, they collude with her. She has no business being the Commander in Chief of the richest, strongest, and most influential nation in the world. She is the perfect empty suit for the enemy to control and to hasten the demise of our once great land. She will be robotic to his commands.

Will the other candidate then be eliminated before the voting gets underway? Could it happen on election night, as in the film? Or, before stepping back into the Oval Office? It might be in the script.

As close as it appears to be before the Rapture happens and the Tribulation starts, it seems that there is not enough time left for the allowance of a second timeout from the trajectory that our nation finds itself on. The inevitable will happen. The foretelling of our country’s demise is hinted at in Scripture.

Make America Great Again is not Satan’s nor the Democrats’ goal. They prefer to Make America Go Away. Make us weak. Get rid of the deplorables. Shut down conservatism. Burn the Constitution. Control the media. Open the door for the Beast. Bring on world government. Set the stage for the emergence of Satan’s true Luciferian Candidate – the AC.

“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled” (Revelation 17:17).
