Storm Warning :: By Jonathan Brentner

The weather fascinates me. Some say that I’m a bit of a nerd when it comes to tracking severe thunderstorms and snowstorms. With smartphones and high-definition radar, we know what’s coming weatherwise.

Did you know that Jesus also referred to the weather watchers of His day? Luke 12:54-56 records the words he spoke to the crowds:

“When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, ‘A shower is coming.’ And so it happens. And when you see the south wind blowing, you say, ‘There will be scorching heat,’ and it happens. You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time?”

In the above text, Jesus scolds the Jews for their ability to discern weather patterns but not the signs telling them their Messiah stood in their midst.

Might Jesus make a similar statement today regarding Christians and pastors who remain blind to the numerous prophetic indicators of the last days that abound around us? I am sure He would.

The particular storm warning for our day is found in Revelation 6:1-8. The dark threatening clouds on our horizon point to nearness of the time when these four riders will burst out of their stalls and gallop across the earth.

For us as believers, it signals the nearness of Jesus’ appearing; we will be in heaven with Jesus when opens the seals that initiate these judgments.

The White Horse with the Rider that Conquers

The rider upon the white horse in Revelation 6:2 may be the antichrist or someone who conquers in advance of his tyrannical rule over the nations. The description of this rider indicates that he will conquer without using military might or perhaps with the threat of war.

“And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer.”

Klaus Schwab, the founder and head of the World Economic Forum (WEF), provides us with an example of wielding consider clout apart from military might. The support for his radical Great Reset includes leaders from all across the world.

The following world leaders took part via video conference in the recent Davos Agenda 2022 sponsored by the WEF (Klaus Schwab moderated all sessions): [i]

  • Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China
  • Anthony Fauci, Chief Medical Adviser to the President of the United States
  • John Kerry, the US Special Presidential Envoy for Climate
  • Janet Yellen, Secretary of the Treasury, US Department of the Treasury
  • UN Secretary-General António Guterres
  • Indonesian President Joko Widodo
  • Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison
  • Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio
  • Yemi Osinbajo, Vice-President of Nigeria
  • Carlos Alvarado Quesada, President of Costa Rica
  • Jose Pedro Castillo Terrones, President of the Republic of Peru
  • Olaf Scholz, Germany’s new Federal Chancellor
  • Brian Moynihan, Chairman and CEO, Bank of America
  • European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen

I am not saying that Klaus Schwab will be the rider on the white horse; I believe it will be someone else. However, the worldwide support he has garnered for his vision of a one-world communistic government provides an insight into how this rider, probably the antichrist, will do so in the future.

The Red Horse Signifying War

The apostle John describes the second horse and rider in Revelation 6:4:

“And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.”

It’s clear that what we now see in our world shouts loudly that this horse is about to romp through the nations. Consider just a few of the hotspots in our world that explode into much larger conflicts:

  1. Russia continues to amass considerable military might on its border with Ukraine, which is also putting a great number of troops on the border. With some NATO nations sending military help amid rumors that the US will send eight thousand troops to the conflict, the tensions increase by the day. I do not know what will happen here, but it seems like it could spark a major war in the future.
  2. Many fear that the rising hostilities between the US and Russia, related to the conflict in Ukraine, could lead Putin to launch an attack on American soil.
  3. Iran continues to pour missiles and weapons, along with many soldiers, into Syria. Turkey and Russia also have a significant military presence there.
  4. China continues to threaten Taiwan by sending warplanes toward the island nation.
  5. A war rages in the Arabian Peninsula between the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen and the moderate Arab states, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

We are not yet at the time when this horse will leave its stall; that will happen after the Rapture. However, it seems abundantly clear that the stage is set for major wars across the planet.

If this were a severe storm coming our way, we would already see the dark clouds on the horizon.

The Black Horse of Great Economic Turmoil

The alarm bells are also sounding for the great economic turmoil that will come on the heels of the black horse described in Revelation 6:5-6:

“When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, ‘Come!’ And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!'”

The conditions described above depict great inflation where a “quart of wheat,” a relatively small amount, would cost an entire day’s wages. This is extreme inflation.

Many economists warn that trouble lies ahead for the world in the form of a depression that will be much worse than during the 1930s.[ii]

Michael Snyder, who often writes about the dire state of the US economy, recently sounded the warning about the inflation numbers for December 2021, which showed the consumer price index rising by 7%. He concluded his article, The Dollar Has Entered a Death Spiral, and a Lot More Inflation Is on the Way, with these words:

This truly is the beginning of the end for the US economy, and I would recommend that you prepare accordingly. [iii]

Where I live, the cost of natural gas for heating my home has gone by 80%, and the price of gas per gallon is up about 33%. These factors will continue to push grocery bills higher and severely hurt those living on fixed incomes.

I believe the Lord will continue to sovereignly hold back the worst of the coming economic disaster until after the Rapture (as He has for many years). Please know, however, that it’s only a matter of time before this turmoil explodes in the US and brings the world’s economy down with it. This has already started to happen.

The Pale Horse of Death

When the Lord opens the fourth seal, death envelopes the world as never before in human history. In Revelation 6:8, John writes about what he saw next:

“And I looked, and behold, a pale horse! And its rider’s name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth.”

One-fourth of the world’s current population would amount to close to two billion people. The great wars and famine of the future will result in a death toll not seen since the Genesis 6 flood.

The previous riders will contribute to this enormously high death toll. We have already seen the tragic result of tampering with the COVID virus to make it much more contagious and deadly.

The COVID-19 injections are already contributing to a high death toll in the world. As of January 14, 2022, medical personnel have reported a total of 22,193 deaths as the result of the mRNA to the CDC in America, along with 39,150 permanently disabled. We know from previous years that at the very most, doctors report only ten percent of vaccine injuries to the CDC; it’s actually much closer to one percent. [iv]

The true death toll from the mRNA injections likely stands at 221,930, at an absolute minimum. The true number is almost certainly in the millions; so many have died and suffered because of these shots.

The Good News for Those Who Know Christ

I cannot finish on such a dreadful note as the enormously high death toll that will occur in the early part of the Day of the Lord. For those of us who know Jesus as our Savior, our anticipation is most decidedly not the Lord’s wrath that will fall on this world in the near future. Ours is the “blessed hope of Titus 2:11-14. Pause and think about our wonderful anticipation of the Lord’s appearing to take us home to the place He’s preparing for us (John 14:1-3).

Jesus is our future, not the coming time of Tribulation that will soon overtake the world.

For those of us in Christ, the storm warning signifies the need to hold the things of this life loosely, knowing that we may soon be in the presence of our Savior. No one knows the day or the hour of Jesus’ appearing, but the storm clouds on the horizon of our world tell us that it’s ever so close. We surely live in biblical times. He could come for us any day now; it could be one just like today!

If you are reading this and have not yet turned to Jesus in faith, now is the time to heed the storm warnings and run to the Savior who promises eternal life to all who call upon Him.

2021 in Review: Part Three :: By Jeff Van Hatten

 

Pope Francis and the Vatican

Please Note: This article is blunt and may be offensive to those who have no love of the truth: so be it. This is not an attack on the people who attend Roman Catholic churches, as do many of my relatives; it is simply an exposé on its current leadership. Yahweh has given all people free will – you may choose to continue reading or not – that is your choice.

“Yeshua will enable Lucifer to deceive, in all kinds of wicked ways, those who are headed for destruction because they would not receive the love of the truth that could have saved them” (2 Thessalonians 2:10).

Pope Francis – A False Christ

2 Corinthians 11:13 – “Such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Yeshua.”

Galatians 2:4 – “False brothers slipped in secretly to spy out our freedom that we have in Yeshua, so that they might bring us into slavery.”

Romans 1:25 – “They have exchanged the truth of God for falsehood, by worshipping and serving created things, rather than the Creator.”

Pope Francis continues trying to unite Christians, Islam, and Judaism together into one body. His policy of tearing down the walls against Islam and uniting them with other faiths is inexcusable. Francis and the Iraqi cleric, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, urged the Muslim and Christian communities to work together in unity for peace. The Pope led a “Prayer of the sons and daughters of Abraham” at the Great Ziggurat of Ur in Iraq, but despite the title of the event implying that all of Abraham’s offspring would be represented, the event brought together Muslims, Catholics, and Christians, but no Jews were present. This is a doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis continues to state that Hamas terrorists are defenseless and that the Temple Mount should be given to Arabs. This is also a doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis presented Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas with a copy of the Document on Human Fraternity, which he signed with the Grand Imam of Al Azhar in Abu Dhabi in 2019. At the meeting, Francis emphasized the importance of the “Two-State Solution,” which would create an unprecedented Arab state inside of Israel’s borders. This is also a doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis held a special Gaia one-world religion meeting with Chrislam co-founder Grand Muslim Imam Ahmed Al-Tayeb at the Vatican. Pope Francis (who pretends to represent Christianity) and the Grand Imam praised the efforts and initiatives of the Chrislam Higher Committee for Human Fraternity. Even more doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis continues trying to get all people to worship the created (climate change, earth worship, etc.) rather than the creator (Yahweh / Yeshua). He invites Christians to sign and promote the “Healthy Planet, Healthy People” Petition, which he presented to world leaders at the UN Climate Change Conference, and told young people that theirs was “perhaps the last generation” to save the planet. According to Francis, leaders must pledge to take urgent steps to reach the goal of limiting global warming. More doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis – A Globalist Spokesperson

Matthew 12:34, 15:18; Luke 6:45 – “The mouth speaks what overflows from the heart.”

We rarely hear the Gospel of Yeshua Ha’Mashiach from this pope, but we certainly hear a lot of political, one-world, globalist dogma coming out of his mouth – which scripture calls the doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis’ ecumenical Abrahamic Family House project contradicts the teachings of Yeshua. The price of entry into the Abrahamic House is to de-emphasize the central elements of the Christian faith and to emphasize the tenets of the One-World Religion, Mystery Religion Babylon, and The Babylonian Whore. More doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis – One Who Approves Murder and The “Jab”

Pope Francis has repeatedly amplified pro-jab narratives and has mandated all Vatican employees to get the jab or face losing their jobs, will not allow any religious exemption against taking the jab, and sees no problem with enforcing jabberwocky passports. The Pontifical Academy for Life, the official bioethics academy of the Catholic Church, insists that it is a “moral responsibility” for Catholics to get poked. The Vatican considers use of genetic modifying agents to be acceptable, even those agents that use stem cell lines from murdered babies in their research. More doctrine of demons.

Pope Francis has concluded that Joey-Just-Biding-My-Time’s acceptance of “removing living infants from the womb” does not disqualify him from being a Catholic in good standing. Definitely a doctrine of demons.

Conclusions

Yahweh has permitted Pope Francis to steadfastly expose the true nature of the direction that the Roman Catholic “Church” is taking under his direction as an up-and-coming Synagogue of Satan through the political, one-world, globalist dogma coming out of his mouth. Pope Francis leads the way. There is nothing compatible between Biblical Christianity and the Satanic deceptions of the lying, deceiving actions and remarks of the Vatican and especially Pope Francis – which scripture calls the doctrine of demons. What a stench in Yahweh’s nostrils these beliefs are.

Final Thought

Luke 21:28 – “When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near!”

May Yom Teruah this year be fulfilled in the resurrection of the dead. Be sure you are ready and watching. Yeshua Ha’Mashiach is coming soon – so be of great cheer, keep looking up, lift up your heads and see your redemption draw near. Keep maintaining an attitude of gratitude. Be sure Yeshua is your Redeemer, King, and High Priest, and your sins are forgiven.
