Armageddon

November 19, 2010

Ever since the time of Adam and Eve, the forces of good and the forces of evil have fought for control of the earth. When the End Times arrive, these opposing forces will meet in a final decisive battle to decide the ultimate fate of humankind. This final great battle is called Armageddon. It will continue for a thousand years, until the forces of evil are ultimately defeated. God will then create a perfect eternal kingdom on the earth, where all the good people will be able to live forever in happiness and peace.

This final battle between good and evil is predicted in the later books of the Old Testament, especially the Book of Daniel. That it will take place at a location called Armageddon is prophesied in Revelation 16:16, which says that the forces of God will finally overthrow all the kings of the earth there. Some experts have identified this location as being near an ancient Palestinian city named Megiddo where several important battles took place in biblical times.

In everyday language the word Armageddon is sometimes applied to a possible future global war, especially one that could cause such great destruction that civilization will be wiped out.

Where Is Hell?

June 13, 2010

Nobody knows the exact location of hell. But many believe that it is somewhere inside the earth, most likely inside a cavern. Interestingly, some evidence to confirm this may exist in the form of reports from people who believe that they have heard the screams of the damned who are being tortured in hell. There have been many such reports, extending over a period of hundreds of years.

According to the reports, these screams seem to come from within the earth. Evidently they aren’t earthquakes or trembles, but humanlike screams. In order to reach the surface from a very deep cavern, such screams would either have to be very loud, or else are able to travel upward by supernatural means. Or maybe hell is closer to the surface than we think.

Some people believe that the number of reports about these screams has been increasing in recent years. Is it possible that God has enabled some of us to hear these screams in order to warn us that we are near the End of the World?

Demons and Devils Website

March 22, 2010

Anyone interested in demons will find a wealth of information on this site. Various articles discuss their origin, their history, their powers and limits, their activities, and their relationship to the Devil. There is also a large encyclopedia which lists the names, history, and attributes of dozens of individual demons.

In the encyclopedia section, I learned that a demon named Arazel, who is mentioned in the bible, has seven snake-heads, fourteen faces, and twelve wings. The book of Enoch says that it taught people how to make swords, shields, and other instruments of war.

The encyclopedia entry on a demon named Byleth says that it disguises itself as a magician riding a white horse, and that the sound of trumpets can be heard when it approaches. It is a high-ranking demon, but because it has a bad temper, it must be summoned with extreme care.

In a section on demonic possession, I read about the typical symptoms of possession, cases mentioned in the bible, some modern cases, and methods that exorcists use to treat the condition. Possible symptoms include violence, lust, greed, speaking unknown languages, amazing physical strength, and an unnatural power of persuasion. The discussion of modern cases suggests that many of the most evil criminals, such as serial killers and mass murderers, are possessed by demons.

The End Times Report

January 27, 2010

This website warns that the world has already entered the early stages of the End Times and that the tribulations have already started. It also warns us to immediately begin making preparations for surviving the ever-worsening catastrophes to come.

According to the site, the signs that we have entered the End Times are all around us. These include increasing numbers of natural disasters, skyrocketing oil prices, the Devil’s successful infiltration of the church, terrorist activities, appearance of new diseases, and people speaking in tongues. These signs indicate that the AntiChrist will soon appear, and that incredible wars will erupt.

But not only does the site warn us of the approaching disasters, it also gives us detailed instructions on how to survive them. The first and most basic instruction is to leave the city and set up a self-sufficient safe haven in a remote rural area. Then you must adopt a nineteenth-century pioneer lifestyle in which you grow and preserve your own food, provide you own heat and energy (wind and wood), and adopt natural medical treatments.

Because of the likelihood of a nuclear war, the site provides a map of the United States which shows prevailing wind patterns and the safest areas to live to avoid radiation from nuclear explosions.

The Second Coming

January 8, 2010

In Matthew 6:10, Jesus told his followers to pray: “Your kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”  With the problems of society all around us, it is obvious to everyone that the Kingdom of God hasn’t arrived yet. But any true student of bible prophesies knows that it will arrive soon.

Near the end of Jesus’ stay on earth, his disciples asked him when the Kingdom of God will come. He told them to watch for the Signs of the End Times. He then described a number of signs that will precede the final cataclysmic events which will prepare the way for the new kingdom. In this blog I will show that these signs are clearly visible now to anyone with eyes to see. So prepare your self for the coming end!
