Pawns of Prophecy :: By Terry James

The greatly memorialized human figures of earth’s history speak to whom man believes is in charge of life upon the planet. Nimrod is the first individual to be thus lifted to “deity” status by the people of the post-antediluvian era.

Those who created the stories of humankind’s rise from that Tower of Babel time seem to have used Nimrod to create the legend of Gilgamesh in Mesopotamian legend. Their historical proximity seems logical to their linkage, but there is no known historical evidence that Nimrod and Gilgamesh were one and the same.

We can be certain that one was a living being. Nimrod is chronicled in God’s Word, while Gilgamesh is a demigod of legend.

From that post-Flood beginning and forward into the progression of history, the earth has been a record of greatly exalted individuals–mostly men—as history has unfolded over the millennia.

Kings, potentates, monumental military leaders, and masters of the world’s governments continue to rule, with many such holding near absolute power over horrendous dictatorships.

The American experiment in liberty cannot be considered anything other than unique in the annals of humankind and the restrictions imposed upon the masses of our planet.

Plato’s Republic was an early, but merely a literary, effort to frame a just and thriving governance under which humanity could live. But it was the framers of the United States Constitution who have come the closest to implementing such a magnificently proposed government.

To this point in this commentary, only human governance has been dissected. All of history’s preeminent, exalted individuals can be looked at as positioned upon a gigantic chessboard of sorts–a bit more stylized than the literal, but nonetheless a board upon which dynamic movement continues to shape the destiny of the human race.

The board is full of kings, queens, knights, bishops, and rooks that dominate that shaping. But these are not figures under the movement of a human hand as in that literal game of strategizing for conquest.

But supernatural hands do provide the movement, and that movement can be studied throughout history. It has been intricately chronicled and meticulously recorded—sometimes accurately, sometimes not so much, but rather rewritten to serve the chess master of nefarious scheming on one side of the board.

This is where the pawns come into our view of this strangely arranged chessboard.

Each king, queen, knight, bishop, and rook throughout history who have been given accolades for the movement of human progress are themselves pawnswithout cognizance of their true powerlessness. They are but pawns of their allotted increment of time on this chessboard we can liken to Earth’s surface.

On the one side of this planetary chessboard sits the “player” who insinuated himself upon chessboard Earth as recorded in Genesis.

Lucifer the fallen one has manipulated with his wicked fingers control over the likes of Nimrod, Pharaoh, the Caesars of Rome, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and myriad other diabolists upon chessboard Earth’s history. He continues to exert control over the evil kings, queens, knights, bishops, rooks, and all other such pawns as this age winds up for the spectacular return of the True King–the Lord Jesus Christ!

On the other side is the true Chess Master, the God of Heaven. The True King, God’s Only Begotten Son, is the objective of the iniquitous Lucifer’s all-out attempt to conquer and to replace the King of all kings.

The sinful pawns of all the ages were defeated at the cross of Calvary and on Resurrection morning!

This eternal game of chess was already over before it even began. Prophecy from God’s Holy Word tells all creation of the Supreme chess master’s victory!

“Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 

Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him” (Psalms 2:1-12).

In a final heavenly Word from Bible prophecy by God the Chess Master: Checkmate!

We are so thankful for you!

 

Extraterrestrial or Interdimensional? :: By Terry James

At this moment, when signals in every direction indicate that this world is building toward some climactic, world-changing disruption, the powers that be have determined to push our button of fascination with talk of visitors from space.

The president of the United States started the build-up toward releasing long-held secrets about UFO sightings and information in answering a reporter’s question in a recent Oval Office press briefing. About the upcoming release of the information, the president said, “I think some of it’s going to be very interesting to people.”

In that comment, Mr. Trump went just about as far as any president has gone toward truly letting us in on what the government knows about this question that has held Americans, and for that matter, the world, in a state of fascination for decades. But now we are on the cusp of learning, apparently, just how much is documented about visitors from out there somewhere.

As a matter of fact, the government seems to be trying to create increased interest in these unidentified phenomena.

I offer the following news item with this caveat: While Perry Stone has the gospel of Jesus Christ at the heart of his ministry, his extrabiblical extrapolations can, to some, be off-putting speculation. However, I don’t think he would be deliberately deceptive. I believe the meeting described below actually took place.

Perry Stone, a well-known evangelist, author and Bible teacher from Tennessee, warned that fellow pastors were recently invited to a secret meeting with US intelligence officials to prepare for the release of secret files on extraterrestrials. According to Stone, the officials warned a small group of pastors with a large reach in the Christian community that the government was about to release reports and possibly videos of aliens and spacecraft which were not from this planet.

In the April 27 video posted to his YouTube channel, the evangelist claimed that pastors were told about the existence of ‘reptilian’ creatures, UFOs and materials from a non-human origin and ‘other things that almost sound like something out of a sci-fi movie.’

On February 19, President Trump ordered the Pentagon and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to release all information the government possesses regarding UFOs and alien life.

Last week, Trump said that the first files would be released ‘very, very soon’ and would contain some ‘very interesting’ things for the public.

However, officials in this secret meeting allegedly said the information on its way may cause some Christians to question how the universe was created and even lose faith in religion.

Stone said: ‘You’re going to have people who are going to say if there are galaxies and there are allegedly other creations in the galaxies, then the whole creation story is a myth, and you’re going to have people that’s going to apostatize and turn from the Christian faith because they have no answer for what they’re about to hear. (“Religious leaders told ‘prepare now’ for UFO disclosure to unleash Bible-changing revelations,” by Chris Melore, deputy science editor for dailymail.com)

Such a meeting, if indeed conducted by the US government, raises the major question: Why? Why is a religious group as described by Mr. Stone selected to divulge such information? And, why the expressed fear by government that such information, when given to the public, might result in a turn from traditional Bible belief regarding the earth’s creation and all the rest?

Another elected governmental official interjects an interesting question into this matter.

According to a US News story, “There’s Things Out There,” US Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has insights into things pertaining to UFO/UAP matters that perhaps involve ancient biblical presentation.

In a wide-ranging and eyebrow-raising conversation with Joe Rogan, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) made bold claims about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), including references to interdimensional beings and unexplained movement “outside of time and space.”

Luna, who chairs the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, told Rogan she has seen classified photos of unidentified objects that, in her words, were “not created by mankind.” While she stopped short of sharing those images, Luna said she viewed them inside a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) and believes they represent technology or entities beyond current human understanding. (https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/theres-things-out-there-anna-paulina-luna-claims-classified-images-confirm-ufo-claims-on-joe-rogans-podcast-article-152460932, by Naman Trivedi)

Representative Luna went on to imply that to get insight into the nature of what’s going on in the UAP matter, she believes one should read the book of Jude. These, she offered, could be not extraterrestrial intrusions, but interdimensional in origin.

This supposition/postulation, of course, is backed by truth from God’s Word. These are, I believe, interdimensional entities–like those who left their first estate and came to earth to cohabit with human women.

I have offered before that these will be part of the explanation of what has just happened when the Rapture occurs and millions, including all children below the age of accountability, vanish from the surface of planet Earth.

The “space brothers have come to intervene into the dangerous affairs of humankind”–or something to that effect—will likely be the official explanation.

I believe these might well be Satan and his hordes who are kicked out of Heaven for the final time, as described in Revelation chapter 12. These might appear to be orbs of fire descending while the False Prophet of Revelation chapter 13 calls fire down from the heavens in the sight of the image of the Beast.

It will be interesting to see exactly what is divulged when the files promised by the president are finally released.

A preliminary dump of information within government files has now been released. But there doesn’t seem much in it to cause excitement.

However, one government official announced that some truly astounding information is coming soon.

Regardless of what those files will show, the Bible clearly says there will be a massive invasion of Earth by the hordes from the heavens. Satan and his fallen angels will come to the planet with great wrath and vengeance in mind for earth’s inhabitants.

Here is how to avoid facing those fallen angels who are coming to earth to make life hell on this judgment-bound planet: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:31b).
